T20: High Law and Low Justice (IC Thread 2)

Henuri sees the lifeline Trelene's has received from Zaed - his brow furrows in frustration, knowing he's running out of time. He raises his rifle, hoping for one last shot at the door's electronics before the bastards can shut it.

Quinn leans in close to Poliarni. "Try that again, and I'll just shoot you. Understand?" [Intimidate: +11]

"Now sit down and shut up while we negotiate your release."

Poliarni looks about to say something smart, then closes his mouth. He seems content to stare at his captors maliciously for the moment.

Seeing Trelene being dragged in Tomas gets to work on the electronics hopefully he can time it so that the doors close exactly when Trelene is through

"get her in quick" he says unaware of Henuri's actions on the other side...

Seeing that Trelene has looped the rope around herself and is grabbing on, Zaed shouts to the others and pulls with all his might. The Luriani woman slides relatively easily across the metal floor and into hangar, just as Saanath roughly shoves Poliarni through the door. The agents trips over Trelene, and falls flat on his face.

Meanwhile Tomas connects the last of the circuits just as Trelene's feet pass throught the door and Henuri depresses the trigger of his rifle.

The door slides shut with the hiss of a vacuum seal, and a thin column of smoke issues out from the electrical panel as the Henuri's blast fries the circuits, too late.

A few seconds later, Ktarle is able to bring Ruzz'koff 'round, staunching his bleeding and starting him on a rapid transfusion.

Everyone blinks.

Ktarle blinks again, at the relative silence, and looks around the hangar. Her gaze settles on Sanaath, as he's proven the most competent in her eyes. "What next, human?" After a very brief pause, she continues, "Are we safe here?"

[What a movie-star end to a tense scene! Ha ha, take that, N-C!:D]
 

"Ackt!" Tomas blinks stepping back from the smoking panel
"the circuits are fried" he reports "so noones coming in there without a whole lot of force. And it look sealed so we can still get out the external doors if thats the plan."

He steps out and helps Trelene before moving towards the boat

"There's an argon-plasma torch in engineering - if they can find it," says Darius. "It could break the seal on the door, and then it's just a matter of crowbars. The faster we get these doors open the faster we take that option away from them."
 

Quinn takes a deep breath and turns to toward the boats, stowing his pistol in his belt. "Let's make sure all the equipment we need is aboard and then we'll depressurise the hanger. That should keep them out of here."

Darius nods, and start heading toward the oxygen, and responds as she goes. "Right. Who's going to crew the boats?"

Saanath answers, "I've got one of the boats prepped; I'll take her out.

"Okay - you'll need an engineer, too. Who's on the other?"
