"I wonder if that's who Kiara communicated with." Jojo says.
"Doesn't sound like the locals. Did you have any more success than me?" He says to Sam.

"Almost got it..." says Sam, fiddling with the datapad.

Re: IC- 22 - Reunion - Everyone
Trying to ignore the greetings of CENTRAL, Sam accesses the network directly and quickly finds an unidentified node that seems like it could be the shuttle. More familiar with the way colony interface controllers are configured, she's able to spoof her way into the shuttle systems. It's idling in low power mode.
She can see that it was refuelled several hours ago, seems like someone manually overrode a service drone attached to the fuel pump on the runway and then used it to fill up the shuttle themselves. That's not an easy thing to do. It also seems like the shuttle transponder has been deactivated and someone has prepped it to broadcast a new transponder code, but they haven't yet supplied the final digits needed to complete the process.
Most of the procedures needed to initialise the shuttle for take-off have already been completed. It's difficult to tell remotely but it might only take half and hour if everything is done right.

Isabella gets down on one knee and raises her shotgun to her shoulder. 'We need a plan, something is going on down here.' There's another loud explosion followed by a burst of rattling. It's getting nearer.

"Let's fall back to the shuttle," says Sam. "Now that I've gotten access, we can go aboard. I'd like to see what's there, and just how long the shuttle needs to be ready for takeoff."

Re: IC- 22 - Reunion - Everyone
“That’s military grade gunfire! There must be people down there! Kiara maybe. We ought to help them.” Nicole tries to determine how many guns are firing.
Re: IC- 22 - Reunion - Everyone
"Is there anything we can even do?" asks Sam. "If they've got military hardware, they're better equipped than we are. Plus, they may not be so happy to see us and could shoot us on sight. They're probably the people from the shuttle. Although if Kiara is in danger, we really do need to help her. We'll just have to approach with stealth."

"I'm not all that quiet," says Sam, "so maybe you should go first, and I'll follow behind you and keep you in sight."

“Ok, stay back and be ready to run to the shuttle. I’ll creep down and see if it is Kiara. I’ll try to signal if she’s there.”
Nicole looks around their motley weapons and shrugs. She gets her stun gun ready and creeps closer to the gunfire.

"I'm a doctor, not a fighter. I'm not going to sneak around an active battle." Jojo says to Nicole. "Let me know if anyone needs any medical care."

Re: IC- 22 - Reunion - Everyone
Turning off her suit lights and utilising the extensive shadows and the cover of gunfire, Nicole creeps down the tunnel. Her way illuminated by the strips of low power lighting running down from the surface. Sam follows some distance behind.
Isabella remains behind with Jojo, shotgun raised and looking nervous, turning back and forth to look up and down the dark tunnel. Occasionally pointing her weapon back up at the hole in the structure above them.

Nicole watches the figure, wondering how to contact them without being shot accidentally. She risks a quick look further down the tunnel to see what they were shooting at.

Sam flattens herself against the wall next to the corner without rounding it, having her flamethrower ready, listening carefully.

Re: IC- 22 - Reunion - Everyone
Nicole cycles through a few frequencies,
“Come in, over?” But gets no response. With a last glance into the gloom she turns back and follows the figure quietly.

"Get back around the corner, fast!" Sam calls into the communicator to Nicole, though also loud enough for her to hear in case it's not working. "Someone armed for bear is coming quick!"

Jojo signals back to Isabella, shaking his head while flicking his hand in a "no" gesture in front of his throat.

Re: IC- 22 - Reunion - Everyone
Nicole thinks the figure is acting human enough to be one. She stays crouched and hidden but calls out.
“I don’t want to hurt you. I’m human and in no way contaminated by the aliens. Please don’t shoot me.”
She grits her teeth. At least this might give the others the chance to escape if it suddenly goes tits up.
