Mission 2, Encounter 7, Round 9.
The tear gas cloud will remain for a further 5 rounds.
Warrior bug continues to bleed.
Cyrill moves 15’ west cautiously.
Human #6 remains secured on the floor coughing.
Carl covers the stairs ready for any attack but also begins to experience the same as Mel with a noise inside his head.
Human #7 lies secured on the ground coughing.
Rudy begins to also experience the same noise in his head as the others, he indicates via hand signal whether the others are also experiencing anything as he realizes that verbal communication will not work. He indicates that they should move upstairs before the situation gets any worse and proceeds cautiously, 15’ up the stairs readying an attack if there is any movement.
As Cyrill passes by Sarge he moves forward again covering the north door and indicates that they should head for that door first. He sternly asks, “Jacob, where the
are you?”.
To cover Mel better Jacob moves 35’ south and takes up position by the south wall covering the stairs. Jacob hears his name and suddenly realizes that the Sarge had given him an order just moments ago…
Human #1 continues to cough.
Mel talks loudly as the noise continues in her head but the others around her don’t seem to notice… she tries to mentally block the noise but without any luck. She continues to provide cover as Rudy proceeds slowly up the stairs.
Human #8 lies on the floor unconscious.
Squad actions please.

The sound of the bugs in Carl’s head start to drive him crazy. It reminds him of his camping days as a child when a cricket decided to nest in his ear one night while he was sleeping. Carl thinks to himself “It’s going to be one of those night again”.
Seeing Rudy move up the stairs he says, in the hope that someone might still be able to hear him “Yeh, lets get this over with so we can all go home, I’m right behind you Rudy.”
With that he double moves back the way he came standing just behind Rudy on the stairs. He then gives Rudy a thump on the shoulder of his power suit to let him know that he is there.

Melara moves to the base of the stairs, so as to cover Rudy and Carl better...as well as prepare to start climbing herself! She motions to Jake...trying to shoo him to carry out his orders.
She then scans up the stairs for one of those weird heat sigs...hoping for an opportunity for a shot.

Mission 2, Encounter 7, Round 10.
The tear gas cloud will remain for a further 4 rounds.
Warrior bug continues to bleed.
Cyrill moves up to the door blocking the entrance to the northern chamber and takes aim so as to provide Sarge with cover.
Human #6 remains secured on the floor coughing.
Carl moves to stand just behind Rudy trying to watch his step as he puts his foot nicely next to the bleeding warrior bug… he thinks to himself if it is only sharks that have that dead look in their eyes until you get closes enough…
Human #7 lies secured on the ground coughing.
Rudy looks back momentarily to acknowledge Carl and proceeds up the stairs. As his eye level clears the next floor he sees a heat sig to his right in the next room. He blinks and changes his view to normal light and regrets doing it the moment he does… the heat signature was definitely a lot better looking than the real thing. Rudy sees a grotesque combination of human and bug resembling what must be a mutation of what was a human at some stage. The “creature” is huddled over and appears to be uninterested in his advances. However as Rudy is just outside the room he suddenly realizes that he has been caught by the oldest trick in the book… predators have used the tactic of distraction for centuries… He was so mesmerised by the combination of screeching bugs in his head and the huddled over target that he did not sweep the room and turns to look south, (Cultist chosen one #2 readied attack as Rudy notices him, Modified melee attack roll of 22, a hit doing 4hp damage), as a well placed kick catches Rudy in the head. The force of the blow dazes him for a moment before he brings his rifle up and swings at the mutation now directly in front of him, (Modified melee attack roll of 2 + 7 (AB) = 9, a miss), but misses horribly.
The cultist chosen one #1 takes a 5’ step and uses a readied action to attack Rudy, (Modified melee attack roll of 24, a hit doing 0hp damage), punching him in the midriff but the powered armour protects Rudy from harm.
Sarge wonders why the heck the rest of the squad are talking so loud and tells them to keep it down… but he gets only a look from Cyrill. He moves past Cyrill and gives the wooden door a good kick, it swings open almost breaking out of its hinges. Sarge and Cyrill quickly look around the room from their vantage point. What they see is a dimly lit room with a stream of water that pours from a hole in the northern wall of the cavern into a large pool. The water empties in an eddying swirl near the southern wall. The cave is slick with moisture and quite humid, and steam rises from the pool’s surface. Squatting near the pool are five humans, 3 men and 2 women, dresses in little more than rags. They seem to cower in fear as the door swung open.
Jacob continues to cover the stairs.
Human #1 continues to cough.
As Mel is watching the stairs for any activity she sees Rudy proceed to the top and then she sees a hideous creature move towards him, she shouts a warning but Rudy does not hear it, and she sees how Rudy gets attacked. From this viewpoint she can see just the shoulder of the creature behind Rudy, but that is enough and she takes a shot, (Modified ranged attack roll of 9 + 7 (AB) + 1 (PB) – 0 (Precise shot) – 4 (cover from stairs / floor) = 13, a miss), shooting into top of the stairs.

"Trouble upstairs!" Mel bellows into her comm, praying someone can hear it. "Rudy and Carl have trouble!"
She takes the steps two at a time until she has a clear shot at the bug-thing's back, then fires a shattering burst at it, hoping to drop it fast so they can concentrate on the other one.

Private Cyrill Kowaltzki
To the hostages: "MOBILE INFANTRY, we a here to get you out! BUT I want to see your hands - just in case."
To Sarge: "Sir, asking permission to help the squad upstairs. This persons don't seem to be dangerous."
To Mel via Com: "I'm on my way! Keep your heads down and I will save the day!"
If Sarge gives permission to leave Cyrill will double-move to the stairs. If not he will help Sarge tosecure help the "hostages".

Being surprised by Rudy’s sudden attack and Mel’s rapid appearance and burst of fire Carl gets a sudden rush of adrenalin.
He moves forward up the stairs to Rudy’s aid stopping just out of reach of C#2, slamming his finger down on the trigger of his Morita he unloads a full auto burst at the bug-thing shouting “EAT LEAD YOU FREAK“.

Mission 2, Encounter 7, Round 11.
The tear gas cloud will remain for a further 3 rounds.
Warrior bug continues to bleed.
Cultist chosen one #2 full attacks Rudy, (Modified melee attack roll of 16, a bite misses, modified melee attack roll of 16, a lethal unarmed strike misses, modified melee attack roll of 11, a lethal unarmed strike misses), but punches past him.
Cultist chosen one #1 full attacks Rudy, (Modified melee attack roll of 16, a bite misses, modified melee attack roll of 23 (failed critical), a lethal unarmed strike hit doing 0hp damage, modified melee attack roll of 12, a lethal unarmed strike misses), landing a head butt on Rudy’s helmet but doing no damage.
Cyrill sees the Sarge indicate to first clear the room and so provides cover as the Sarge moves in to check out the room.
Human #6 remains secured on the floor coughing.
Carl moves up the stairs stopping just short of the cultist chosen one’s reach and opens up on full auto, (Modified ranged attack roll of 7 + 6 (AB) = 13 vs Defense of 14 (Carl does not have advanced firearm proficiency), a miss), but sends a hail of bullets crashing into the roof raining down chips of mason and plaster on everyone around.
Human #7 lies secured on the ground coughing.
Rudy backs up 5’ and fires at chosen one #2, (chosen one #2 gets an AOO, Modified melee attack roll of 13, a miss), (Modified ranged attack roll of 19 + 7 (AB) + 1 (PB) = 27, a hit doing 11hp damage), hitting the bug man in the chest.
Sarge moves 15’ into the room while keeping his rifle held up and aimed at the humans found, he reiterates what Cyrill shouted and yells, “DOWN, DOWN!”, ready to shoot if any hostile actions are seen.
The frightened humans comply but do so without even looking up… the Sarge can see they are generally terrified.
Jacob continues to cover the stairs.
Human #1 continues to cough.
Mel sprints up the stairs to join Carl, but unfortunately she can not get into the position she wanted without opening herself up to attack so once she can see half the mutation she fires, (Modified ranged attack roll of 13 + 7 (AB) + 1 (PB) – 0 (Precise) = 21 vs Defense of 10, a hit doing a possible 8hp damage, since both chosen one’s were caught in the 10’ x 10’ spray they roll ref saves, #1 REF save of 20 vs 15, success and #2 REF save of 16 vs 15, success). Mel can’t believe her eyes as the bug cultists seem to duck and weave as the hail of bullets flies between them, without even one slug finding a target!
