Team A(Ah, come on. I edited that an hour before you posted. )
Jim waits to see if there will be any reaction to the bottles.
((Good poem, PW. Here's a limerick:
Prisoners more often than not,
The corps leaves many to rot,
But in fulfilling their post
They receive not the most,
But a chance to return, for their job))
Advance into the building, carefully stepping over the wire.
(That was beautiful ;-;)
[Team A Medic - Mesk]
"Wait for it..."
Cower.
Jim and Mesk hang back, watching the building to see what might happen. Simus, on the other hand, decides to charge straight in heedless of the consequences. She leaps the wire and heads into the building. The ground floor is a large open space, like a parlor or shared room of sorts, but it's been mostly cleared and everything thats left-a few chairs and a television on a cabinet-has been shoved against a wall or into a corner.
The only exit out of the room is a stairway in the back leading upstairs.
Team B((Nice poem.))
[Team B Leader=Milno]
"Well, I'm moving to the hotspot. Not wasting any time." Milno said before preparing to take flight.
Fly to a point near the window and peek inside carefully, blaring again: "We were sent to rescue you and any crimes you committed during the quarantine will receive clemency from the higher-ups. If you keep firing at us, we will retaliate. At least try talking before firing, you won't like us shooting at you."

You zoom up to to window in an explosion of exhaust and flame, stopping in front of the window and catching a glimpse of a man running out of the room and into the hall beyond it. The man turns to the left and disappears down the hall, screaming "THE POLICE ARE BACK! THE POLICE ARE BACK!"
((Lars is filled with holy delight.))
((You know, at the poem. Not Milno's ass.))
Keep on guard.
You keep on guard...for milno's ass.
"Our shooter is, or, uh, was in the window. He's likely trying to move. Guys, uh, I think we should move up too with Milno."
Head up a little, find cover there. Continue giving scans. Are there more of them?
You hear the man screaming inside the building and begin catching tiny spots of movement around the closed windows, hotspots of people who were peaking out now sprinting back into the building.
Team CCheck the whole street, peek inside every house (with normal and heat vision).
The street itself is empty from what you can see, no signs of people running around or of anything really. You scan the homes as you walk past them, both with the heat and the normal vision modes. It reveals a lot of room temperature, empty ruins, at least as far as the fronts of the buildings are concerned. You can't get your head into any buildings but as far as you can see by peeking through windows it doesn't look like there's anyone around, at least anyone alive.
Stacy, Team C Physimancer, In The Dead Scientist House...
"Well, better get back to work."
Follow Miyamoto from a respectable distance. Keep an eye out for any more unburnt buildings.
You stick with Mr.Roboto as he wanders about. You don't really see anything unburnt, but that radio signal seems to be at it's loudest and most clear over next to a particular building, one with a rather ornate if badly melted front.
Feyri Nirel ; Team C Mercenary, Block C, in that room with the dead Scientist along with Pancaek.
Begin delving deeper into the white suited man's death - try to discern any kind of anomaly or pathogen which he was trying to clear, or any traces of information to be had. Open the suit, if necessary,
"Miya, have you got anything regarding Block C yet? All I currently detect are swaths of ash and...pristine death."
"So. Does jim have...like...you know...a...does it vibrate?"
Feyri looked at Pancaek with a stern expression - for she was sure he would see her expression through her faceplateless visor - "Does what vibrate?"

Welcome to the HMRC, recruit. While we have no 'standing' rules but 'don't blow up the ship', there are a set of ethics one must follow. What they are, will be up to you to decide. Just don't cross that line, ok?
You look at the man, pull open his suit and look for anything on his person that would give you a clue as to what he was doing. But under his suit all he's wearing are unlabeled scrubs with no pockets and nothing else anywhere in the suit. Who ever this guy is, carrying his orders wasn't something he did.
Name:Flint/Deeper Scum - Team C - C block, not with the leader
"Be there in a jiffy boss. Just gonna do a quick search 'round here first."
Do a quick search of the buildings on the street I'm in for anything unburnt. If nothing is found, follow the leader.
((Aaah... Confusion and beautiful poems. The best gifts one can have.))
((Hey, this could be explained as a message from one of the brains of the members of the previous HMRC teams. Maybe it's the same man May's pet lizard-abomination came from.))
There are a few unburnt places in the building with the white suited man, so you quickly rummage through them. You find a single datachip that isn't burnt but nothing else that might contain information unless someone encoded a message in a blanket or a desk.
Team DTeam D Leader Faith, Outside House of Crashing Noises
"Well come on, we're not here to hurt you," Faith called into the structure. "Open up or we'll bash the door down. Or wall."
She then turned to her teammates.
"Feel free to knock it down if they don't answer. Just make sure you do it in a way that won't hurt anybody hiding in there."
Attempt to reason with crashing noises.
Watch the windows for movement with the motion sensor and alert the team if I see anything.
Team D - Lukas
knock down door with prison door if no one answers.
Faith shouts up into the building and waits, holding Lukas back for a moment until something moves in the building near the front door and a muffed voice filters out.
"Wa...who are you? What do you want?"
