The idea of staring at the krogan-with-one-arm any longer than she needed to filled her with no amount of joy and her stomach began to twist as Jacki spoke so friendly and so casually at her back. With a sigh that echoed inside her helmet and not across the comms, she muttered a Quarian’s prayer to the ancestors as her quick hands flicked switches and began the start-up sequence as soon as everyone was aboard. Any later and she would have missed the threat entirely. “Keelah! Hold on!”<br/><br/>Red team’s shuttle lifted quickly, taking a sharp turn to port, and narrowly avoided another shuttle that had been racing toward them from the direction they had traveled. Through the wall-mounted displays the gang signs of the Bloodpack could be seen painted all over the exterior, just before it clipped against the side of the mountain and spun out of control. Rue didn’t waste any time. While their would-be attackers crashlanded into the mouth of the river of chlorine, sending piss-colored waves washing up and over the shores of the riverbank, their ride remained undamaged and under her full control.<br/><br/>Maxine’s voice sounded over open channels, speaking to the Kalanhai. "Sonon, pass the word on to the medical team. The Doc wants Calbix on full stand-by, we’ve severely injured on our hands, and they’ll be coming in hot.”<br/><br/>“Affirmative. Calbix will be on full alert. Be advised: there is activity in your vector. The storm is starting to break away. We’re sensing hostile ships and you may be within range of their sensors. Stay low until final flight pattern to break up your signal against the canyon walls.”<br/><br/>Good thing Rue had intended to stay low anyway!<br/><br/>“Blue team, this is Red team. We’ve located our shuttle and are en route. ETA: seven minutes.”<br/><br/>“Good to hear,” Maxine responded. “Orange team is being extracted as best as we are able. They’re deep in a harvester's nest- anyone got any bright ideas to speed up their extraction, now would be a good time to share to the class before we’re spotted by these asshole Bloodpack mercenaries.”<br/></div><br/><br/><div align="center"><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">GM Notes</div><div class="spoiler_body"><br/>Since Bekah is enjoying beautiful mountains, Rum Chata shots and quality vacation time with her family, she has asked me to post for Rue so that the scene doesn't slow down. F in chat for her poor hangover this morning, lol.<br/><br/>Once Jay has a chance to respond, and when Kandok is pulled from the cave-in, I think that's a reasonable time for Red to physically join up with Blue.</div></div></div></div>
