Radiance Ch2: Talon V Massacre (hint, hint)
 

ooc: and alas, I am late again.

The smooth, blue-white tunnel of the warp conduit collapses quickly and ordertly back into the brilliant pinpricks of stars on the fabric of space. A reddish planet loomsin front of the "Roc"s cockpit plexisteel. The ship's intercom switches on
Attention, Captain Holliday, we have returned to realspace and manual controls are unlocked. Talon V is within visual range.
Says the smooth, pleasantly feminine voice of the ship's computer. The crew of elites, either laying down or sitting up in their tight quarters in the aft, hear the announcement. Their armor, charged, waits in the cargo bay along with fully locked and loaded weapons.


ooc: alright then, take 'em in. The rest of you had best get suited up.

Thank ya ma'am. Holliday says to himself. He fastens the straps on his flight helmet and activates his visor. The grey-tinted visor slides over his eyes from the front of his helmet. Co-ordinates, numbers, and text begin to scroll across the inside of it.

'Longshot' attaches his Scion rebreather to his helmet, a bulky black metal piece with slits in the front. He pushes it to his mouth and speaks.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is your Captain speaking. He crackles over the ship intercom. Talon V is 5 klicks off our starboard. We'll be entering orbit in T-minus 2 minutes. Initial readings indicate some atmospheric disturbances over Talon V. Looks like we'll be in for some chop.

He lets the com-unit built into his rebreather fall back against his shoulder, and cracks his knuckles. Swiftly he plays his hands over the ships controls, his fingers dancing in lightning quick motions as he begins preparations for orbital entry.

Vector locked...adjusting internal compensators. He says to no one in particular.

Computer, set gravity compensator in the cockpit to 95%.

Yes, Captain. The computer responds from behind him. He liked to be able to 'feel' the ship, and so he always set the gravity reduction settings lower than most pilots. It gave him an edge in maneuverability, but he had to be careful not to black-out. That’s what the rebreather was for.

He continued his pre-entry preparations. Adjusting thruster speeds...

ooc: nice quote from the X-wing series there. :D

ic: Krennel walked into the cargo compartment and put on his equipment, double checking everything as he went. he paused just as he was attatching his holsters to his thighs.

I can feel them.
he said ominously.

Like a dark cloud stretching over the entire planet.

he then sat in the corner of the launch bay... leting the rage build.

Mike was suited up and ready to go. He double checked his rifle just in case. Extended clips, check. Scope, working. Safety, on. Everything was fine. He sat down, ready to start shooting stuff.

Ashan calmly suited up despite the jolting and shaking of the ship. He checked his wrist blades and then activated his HUD "Ashan S'jet reporting: ready to rock and roll"

He sat quietly in his seat his eys closed as he was deep in meditation. He had set up all his weaponry earlier his twin guns strapped to his thighs, his father's rifle sitting on his lap, and his wrist blades feeding off his mental powers. He was prepared for the oncoming storm. It is time for the holy fires to scour this planet clean of this dark infestation. And so from the skies came down the angels of justice and with their cleansing fires they destroyed all that was impure.

OOC I have a flair for the theatrics at the moment leave me alone... I know it's cheesy

Reports filtered in from his earpiece within his helmet. Holliday pulled the control stick, slowly veering the ship towards Talon V. The bloated planet crept into view from the right, now massive and unavoidable.

Orbital entry in T-minus 1 minute. If you want to survive entry, I suggest you grab a seat before we hit the atmosphere. He says through the ships intercom.

Kyle rose from the corner, a fire burning in his eyes, he did not take a seat, instead he telekinetically latched himself to the deck.

Ashan strapped himself in and glanced around the room, waiting for the call to deploy.

He grinned as he strapped himself into his seat now fully prepared for battle.And so it begins. The angels of justice begin their descent into the world filled with the impure and evil. Lo' there shall be a cleansing battle in which I will be kicking some major Gurz ass. Let's go go go go!
