(Random fighting.  Not needed for story purposes)

Nikolai punches two black fang members in the face. It felt so nice to, in the dark, reach out and connect with someone. Using a stolen weapon he lays down a hail of fire but that doesn't scare the hardened mercs.

They shoot back and Nikolai burnt by the hail of plasma fire. He grunts in the face of so much pain. One piece of his armor is white hot from the hit. Nomally he would have taken a spartan's death. Going out in a great big explosion but instead the nanomites in his body healed the burn to the point were he could fight.

More black fang members were closing and in his sheilds were only at 20%. Mandalorian armor charges up at a constant rate, which is what Nikolai loves and hates about it at the same time. He wants to get right back in the fight but sometimes the % reading tricks him into getting overconfidant and he makes mistakes. For right now he knows when he is beaten.

Nikolai to Blake "These guys are just too good." They are too well infiltrated and too well trained. We will never be able to hold our own against them just by ourselves. How about you go ahead. Get Alysha out of this with your SPI and I will cover the kig-jar retreat. The kig-jar's battle droids would have been extremely helpful if this had been an open battlefield but..........."

A black fang member sneaks up behind a large droid in the close dark quarters and plants a grenade right on its knee. The droid falls and a black fang specialist begins to rewire it. Desperate a nearby kig jar stops fighting and pulls out a detonator to blow up the droid. He prepares to get to a minimum safe distance but the detonator is shot and his hand. The droid explodes taking the kig-jar warrior and several black fang's with it. The losses are high but the kig-jar maintain a stalemate.
