(Now I'm mentally tired. GOnna go sleep)

The Sheening Dagger joins the Victorious Messenger and the two dropships fly parallel to each other through the urban maze. The lower guns blasted concussive energy blasts at the mercenaries below, while the plasma turrets fired at those that came within range.

VM Pilot "At our current pace, the enemy AA won't have a large window of opportunity to take shots at us. The urban infrastructure is also working to our advantage."

SD Pilot over comms "Where are we headed?"

"We're going to pick up a few allies that got themselves grounded, but we have to locate them first."

SD Pilot over comms "Understood."

"If you see a Spartan, or any republic sentinels, let us know."

A large skyscraper in the middle of the lane forces the two Phantoms to go down separate routes. The Sheening Dagger went ascended into a web of exterior platforms connecting the buildings, while the Victorious messenger descended into several dimly lit traffic tunnels.

Unggoy on turret "Aiiigh. Dark in here!"

VM Pilot "Zealot, I'm deactivating the undermounted firing mechanism and diverting power to the floodlight."

'Quirov "Go ahead."

'Quirov fumbles with the knobs as the light illuminated the portion of the tunnels; this was clearly one of the entry points to the lower levels. No doubt the source of the hostile upstarts.

"Hang on, pilot."

VM Pilot "Yes, Field Marshall?"

UFM turns to Andare as the latter stands adjacent to him, next to a seat behind the cockpit. He also beckons to 'Quirov.

"We can either continue the search, or go down there and thin the enemy ranks with a sneak attack, and maybe find out who's behind it all. Your choice."

'Quirov "The Spartan is clearly capable of fending for herself, a brief delay wouldn't make much of a difference."
