Roll 69Amatin tracked the assassin's soul as it fled, zooming in. The assassin was holding a communicator, so he decided to experiment and see if he could give Van Buren a taste of his own by possessing one of his best men.
[1] He was immediately shut out with such spiritual force as to send him flying backward in real space.
He dusted himself off and stood back up in the darkness. Disappointed, he walked back to the drone to find his suit beeping as it engaged.
"oh what the..."The room was flashing brightly, the light emanating from some curious yellow orb that was giving off sparks and heat waves.
"Varron, can you force the heat to stay near the orb? Just in case? I'm going to smash it.""Right!" exclaimed
Varron. [4] He carefully formed a bubble of vacuum surrounding the orb, as well as lifting it into the air. Amatin drew his impact hammer and swung once at the orb.
The hammer's piston immediately snapped, jamming the head through the orb and catching it. Varron maintained his concentration as soon as he saw the orb emitting more sparks than usual. Finally, the orb glowed a bright white, emitting immense amounts of heat. He struggled to keep it contained, but managed to keep it still as Amatin yanked his hammer out and inspected the damage. The head was melted and fused to the piston.
It was a fission-based active denial system.
struggled to get up. He smelled something burning.
"My suit, it's melting!"He scrambled to yank the scorching metal plate out of his coat, and then flung it onto the floor below. He then felt the warm air against his back, and ran forward.
"One of you get my drone moving. There's a control panel above the cargo compartment. Everyone else, we need to get there like soon, seriously."...
As the party traversed one hallway and one internal elevator (L2), Amatin's communicator picked up some chatter on the Dolphin channel
Voice 1-"Looks like there's nobody here. I think the overseer may have tripped over a cable or something."
Voice 2-"There's no damage at all. No blood, no scorch marks. I think they're either janitors, or we've been fooled."
<silence for 40 seconds>
Voice 3-"Fusion cells charged. We're ready."
Voice 2-"M'kay. Lets wait for instructions. You sure your cores aren't sabotaged? What are the readings?"
Voice 3-"Diagnostics are fine, full voltage and everything."
Van Buren-"Attention, Alpha needs to head to the surface level, ASAP. Beta should have two men watch the reactor room, two men watch the motor, one watch the transmission, and the rest should patrol around the base. Shoot on sight. Also watch for our special agent coming through the halls."
...
L2 arrived at the surface of the dig site. The drilling had been resumed, but it seemed that most of the armed guards were downstairs. There were two other lifts that led to the surface--one on the far side of the dig site, and another directly in between the party and the drill pit.

Jaffar moved to the side to avoid being in the path of the monster's two blades. As he continued firing, the species' name popped into his head, as well as some aspects about it.
Valaross, large predator, extremely rare. Hmm.(
20 damage)
He made an attempt to alert the five soldiers who were deserting.
"Hey, vapor-brains. We just saved your asses. Why don't you return the favor? We could use some more firepower on this thing. "They either did not hear Jaffar or did not want to hear him, because they continued to enter the dense brush in flight.

Kayle backed away switching to her shatterer cannon to conduct a field test. The monster went for her as she was the biggest target, and used its attack, dealing
25 damage to her armor. Meanwhile, she uncapped the shatterer's barrel, revealing a series of evenly spaced circular plates oriented forward, all fused together and attached to a central column. She pointed the contraption at the beasts head and held the trigger down.
[6] The weapon made a noise that quickly rose in pitch before unleashing a wave through the air that fanned out and struck the Valaross, blasting it back and causing it to trip over its legs and fall.

Caplus took the opportunity to get off a single shot at the Valaross' head, dealing
79 damage!
[6] As Jaffar reloaded, Caplus propped the gun against the ground, and Kayle cycled her cannon's energy cells,
Aduin charged with his red wolfram dagger, under-equipped but with unbending morale against the now-blind monster, [5] viciously stabbing it in the neck, head, and catching the dagger on its shell a few times in the process, for
29 and
24 damage.
