Isabel followed her group into the tunnel carefully, keeping all of her sick feelings at the wayside about just how ominous this whole thing seemed to be. She hadn't gotten as much sleep as she would have liked through out the day, a combination of the usual nightmares as well as her shot nerves prevented any of the sleep that she did get from being particularly restful as well. Still, that didn't seem to have any impact on her performance as she obeyed her commander's instructions and found a comfortable little overhang in the cave where she would be able to line up her shots and fire without being seen until it was far, far too late. Truth be told, it had been several years since the last time she had a good night's rest, so this state of fatigue was just a natural state of mind for her, and she had learned how to push through it on a subconscious level.<br/><br/>As soon as the Zakus appeared, taking fire at 1 and 3, Isabel wasted no time firing swiftly, dispatching two of the forward Zakus within a matter of seconds. Naturally, this caused quite the disruption among the Zaku's line, since they were likely expecting the same inexperienced and under-equipped GM forces that usually seemed to come. This would provide Sam and William with more then enough time to set up their own defensive line and fire back, and during that time Isabel was already lining up her next couple of shots, ready to dispatch the next couple of Zakus that advanced too far ahead of their allies, thus providing her with an easy kill.<br/><br/>.....................................................<br/><br/>Jillian jolted from her sleep when she heard the attack taking place, groaning at the fact that yet ANOTHER damn federation unit was being sent to investigate the cave. She was stunned that they just didn't give up on the place, since it was quickly becoming a dead zone for those sent to investigate. Still, she wasn't one to complain, as she had been bored out of her mind anyway. She quickly made it to her Dom, flight suit in all, and was still blown away by the fact that Ghost still somehow got suited up and was docked before her. Moreover, he would be the one to vocalize his acknowledgement of Acar's orders while Jillian simply kept quiet. Jillian didn't have a whole lot of respect for Acar, after all, and didn't much like talking to him.<br/>"Affirmative..."<br/><br/>After a few moments, he spoke again.<br/>"I hope that you're ready to fight, Colonel... I get the feeling that our Guard Dogs are about to be put down."
