***Holodeck 1*** Michael and T’krin continued to watch the three man team that were slowly advancing on their position. Slowly the team were advancing one by one at around a time interval of a minute. The team were almost into range, Michael raised his rifle looked down the sight and lined the first man up. “Aim for the chest, remember to fire when breathing out,” Said T’Krin, while looking though the night vision binoculars. Michael fired and the man hit the floor, and then suddenly up sung a team of eight men firing franticly on Michael’s position. There were pieces of rock and sparks flying around his head from the shoots that seemed to be cutting though the rock cover. “They appear to have ambushed us,” Stated T’Krin, again in his regularly calm voice. “Nooo... you don’t say Sherlock,” Shouted Michael in an overly sarcastic voice. Michael grabbed a grenade and though it as far as he could from the lying position. Although the grenade did not take any of the Blue team out, it did distract them for a moment. Both Michael and T’krin got on one knee and fired off several volleys managing to take out two of the opposing marines. After the volley they both had to get back down because more incoming fire almost took Michael’s head off. +TAPS+ "Walsh to McKnight, Report." +TAPS+ came the voice of MCap Jack Walsh +TAPS+ “we are under heavy fire sir.” +TAPS+ “Negative sir, suggest you push forward while we keep these tired up.” Replied Michael to the question. As Michael and T’Krin got back on one knee to unleash another volley, T’Krin took one in the chest and disappeared back to the Red team starting point. {Bloody hell, all alone now,} thought Michael as he through another two grenades to the forces below. As they exploded Michael let off another couple of shoots taking out two more of the Marines. Michael hit the deck as more fire rained in over his head. Then Michael heard something clang next to him, it was a grenade that had landed almost in his lab. Michael quick kicked the grenade which exploded just as it when over the side of the cliff. The explosion dislodged the rocks that Michael was lying on and sent him sliding down the side of the cliff face, {Oh crap,} was Michael last thought before he hit the floor. ***Eng Log*** -- TBC ******==========****** Cadet Michael McKnight ODA Asst.
