Vampires as DF depicts them.
[Ta da! Another peice of crap. Enjoy the time war.]
"Ecem, we got what we came for and then some!" Koth said proudly when the download and hack finished. "Blueprints, force deployment plans, everything the execs could ask for!" "Good. We've finished rigging up some improv charges to cause some trouble if you get caught. meet you at exfil." Ecem replied over the radio. "No sweat. We should be out in twenty." Koth replied proudly. "Be all smug when we get back. I don't wanna die because you won't shut up." Aret said as the pair began moving at a brisk jog down the hall. They continued along for nearly ten minutes before they ran into an unexpected complication. "What is it? is something there Omur?" A dwarven mercenary said to the towering battlesuit in the hallway. "Uh Ecem? We got a small problem." Koth said as she and Aret stared back at the battlesuit. "What?" "Battlesuits come with thermals don't they." This wasn't a question. It was more a statment. "RUN BITCH RUN!!!" Aret said as he grabbed Koth by the collar and pulle dher down a hall. At that moment the suit brough it's gatling gun up and began to fire where they were just a second before. "Ecem! problem! BIG FUCKING PROBLEM! A FUCKING BATTLESUIT IS AFTER US!" Aret shouted into his radio.

"Just head for the exfil! We'll try to throw them off, stay under optics!" Ecem said quickly, nodding to Bugi as they came out of camo in the middle of of a hall full of Parasol employees. "TIme to do a dirty deed." He thought to himself as they opened fire on the confused and defensless workers. Bugi hit her jury rigged detonator, causing thier section of the building to shake violently as numerous explosions were heard. They felt horrible for gunning down the civilians, but it had to be done to help thier friends.* Two unlucky guards entered at the sound of the gunfire, a bullet striking each in thier visors and causing them to slump over lifelessly as the terrified Parasol workers scattered in all directions. "Nice shot rook!" Bugi said as she lobbed a grenade into room. "Thanks!" He repeated the feat twice more, bringing down four guards who came charging around the hall. "Come on! We gotta head for the exfil point! move it!" Ecem barked as the group reloaded. They plowed their way through another team of guards, Bugi leaving a grenade in thier confused midst.

"Damn it, he still on us!" Aret said as he ducked behind a corner. "No point in staying cloaked. Got anything that'll bust that suit?" Koth said as she revealed herself. "Two satchels, but there is no way-" "Toss one at it!" Koth shouted at him. "Excuse me!?" He said, obviously shocked at the idea, since that thing had a VERY large gun and was more than willing to use it. "You heard me! A 9-banger should throw him off long enough for you to slide one under him from here." Koth said, pulling the stun-flash grenade from her belt. "I can't believe we're even trying this.." Aret muttered as he pulled out his charge.
"On three! One. Two.... THREE!" Koth shouted on the last, and whipped her grenade around the corner. As the it went off, Aret polaraized his visor and swung out, sending the charge skidding along the ground where it smacked into the suit's foot and stuck. "Charge in place!"Aret called as he ducked back into cover, the suit seeming to have resituated itself and bringing the gun to bear again. "You're mine now bitch!" Koth yelled as loudly as she could, swinging out and shooting the charge, the sheer kinetic force causing it to explode, sending bits of twisted metal everywhere that didn't get vaporized by the powerful charge.**
"Move it! We're gonna be left behind!" Koth said as she started to run for the burning mess. "Ecem wouldn't do that and you know it." Aret shot back quickly as the jumped the burning hole in the floor. "Not the point smart ass!"

"Get that guy!" Bugi shouted over the weaponfire as she ducked to reload, Ecem sending four shots downrange at a Parasol contractor with a rather large machinegun. He crumpled against the wall as blood sprayed against it, his gun clattering to the ground beside him. "Contacts down, Rook, on point! Go!" Ecem said motioning for his team to advance. They could hear shooting up head as they neared the garage. "Sounds like we're late to the party." Bugi said, sounding almost insulted. Fischer popped another merc trio's heads as they passed the door. "Clear! Man we really made a mess out there." Fischer said as he stepped onto the catwalk. The garage was in chaos, the supports they had rigged bombs to having fallen, along with a secion of walk way into the mass of contractors and general employees below. may battlesuits and other war machines were wreathed in flame or smashed by the supports when it had come down, thier powercells rupturing being responsible for the blaze. "Over there!" Bugi said, pointing to a firefight across the garage on the next catwalk. Four Parasol workers, three contractos and a security guard were firing on something from thier position by the only remaining crosswalk to the exfil point. "Rook, lay'em out." Ecem said as he tapped Bugi on the back to have her follow him down towards the fight. "Ok, no wind to acount for... Range four hundred..." CHIRP! sounded his supressed gun, and one Parasol soldier dropped. One perked up, and sung around in a panic, only for another slight Chirp none could hear over the shooting and screaming smashing his skull in his helmet and reducing his brain to splattered mush. "Aret! Koth! We're across the walkway! We have eyes on you!" Ecem said into the radio. On the opposite side he could see could see Aret tying off somthing on his leg. "Rook, why aren't those other dickheads dead!?" Bugi bellowed into the comm. "Just hang on a tic I got him-" Three round slammed into the security guard's back, causing him to tense up and collapse sideways screaming, "And him! Booyah!" The last soldier swung around to face whoever was shooting at him only to be thumped in thew chest by two rounds and a third to hit him in the neck, a breif spray of blod ignifying he was out of the battle. "Come on Aret, we gott a move." koth said as the duo stood up from behinf the now throughly slug ridden storage crates. Aret took the lead, if only because he wanted out of this mess first. "Don't stop guys, we got your back!" Ecem called out, the pair going into a mad dash to reach the other side of the crosswalk. "Shit! one of those damn suits saw us!" Fischer screamed in the radio. As he finished, the crosswalk was struck with a rocket, throwing Koth into Aret and Aret into Ecem. The walk bagan to bend and give out, and Aret, who'd bouced off Ecem, could feel himself beginning to slip when Ecem and Bugi grabbed his hands, with Koth barely clinging to his belt. "Damn it you guys wiegh too much!" Bugi said, straining to keep herself from falling over the edge of the now barely supported walkway. "Are you fucking kidding me!?" Aret shouted as a second rocket flew overhead. "I have an idea." Koytth said into the comms barely loud enough to be heard. She then grabbed Aret's last charge, ripped it from the clip and let go, tumbling down the sharply angled walkway. "Koth no!" Aret cried out as he got hauled over the edge. He scamlbed towards the edge, as if she might be clinging to a rail with the added weight she'd yanked off his belt, only to be pulled away and to his feet. "She's gone Aret, we gotta move!" Bugi said, spinning him around and pushing him towards Fischer, who was in the middle of a reload. "Persistant little shits... Can't get the hint when thirty-five of thier guys drop dead. But noooooooo, they have to KEEP FUCKING SHOOTING AT ME." he said to no-one in particular. Suddlenly he saw large explosion indicating a charge or a fuel cell had gone off.
"Rook, snap to, we're leaving!" Ecem shouted over the general clusterfuck, pulling him along by the collar of his armor. He did a cursory check, and noticed one Contactor missing. "Where'd Koth?" He asked as they wheeled around the corner, a tear beginning to form at the end of the hall. "She's dead rook. Just keep running." Ecem said quickly. The group skidded to a halt outside the portal, nearly a dozen armed contractors on the otherside ready to help if needed. "Aret, you first. The Bugi, then Yyou rook, then me." Ecem said. The group went through as ordered, and the portal was shut down. "Intel says ya made a fuckin' mess a tha' place guys. Kudos on pissing Parasol off enough to shoot rockets at you." A dwarven contractor said. "How the hell do you already know about that?" Bugi said as she slumped against a crate. "I got a buddy in G1 who was givin' us details from a mole in the g'rage. She thinks you lot mighta iced'em by mistake though." Fischer sat against the frame of the gate, and took a drink from his canteen. When he lowered the container, he noticed something hanging off Aret's belt: Koth's TACPAD. "hey Aret, you got something hanging off your belt!" He said suddenly with all the urggency he could bring about politly. "Be more specific rook, I have alot- The fuck..." Aret said irritably. He pulled the wrist computer out of the loop where his satchel charge was. "Well... Mission Accomplished boss." He said forelornly as he tossed the TACPAD to Ecem. "I would have preferred complete success." Ecem said quietly when he caught it. He looked it, the dinged up and outmoded tool, his body seeming to become heavier than it should have. "I hope it was worth it." Bugi said. Ecem just said "Three to go." Too nobody in particular.
[Note *: They attacked a random group to throw off security, with explosions going off everywhere and reports of multiple intruders, they hoped Parasol would think the attack was larger than five guys.
Note **: Stable enough to be knocked around in battle, the charge's composites were not stable enough to take something five to six times the kintetic force of a regular rifle bullet smashing into it and rustling its jimmies.
There will be a follow up of what exactly happned to Koth later. She didn't die when that satchel she pulled off Aret exploded, though she was very dead by the time they escaped.]
