Hey we're at the tether what's up tether


Three objects appear in the sky, and a purple laser flashes from one of them for less than a second. Explosions rocket up the side of the tether as it falls. Chyler turns and runs towards their dorm, screaming as people are crushed around her.

"Oh stuff."  I haul ass back to my dorm.

I pick up Nathan, and I scramble, following Chyler, "Holy stuff!" I was forced to leave Nathan, so I put him in a corner, then I continue to run with Chyler.

Chy is the first one there, running into the door with a *clunk.* The door won't budge. "stuff! It won't open!"

"What do we do?" I eye on an airvent, I point to it, "Is that possible to fit through?"

I quickly push Chyler out of the way with a subtle "Move" and kick the door in (Assuming it's on hinges.)

I follow whatever Chy's doing.

As I arrive at the tether, I look around for my squad. Confused, I look up and watch as an explosion sends the elevator hurtling back toward Earth. I book it for the dorm amidst the sound of gunfire.

(Assuming it is a metal door that has a locking chamber)
"Maybe we can go through the vent," I look as Jacov comes back, "I'll lift you," I take the plate off, "You know the security system wiring box, right next to Nathan's dorms door? You need to detach the red wire, then we can force the door open."

I point at Chyler, "Your lead, your decision."

Chyler looks around. "stuff, stuff, stuff!" Looking towards the center of the dorm area, a hulking figure lurks near the statue in the center of the 'plaza.' The hunched-over figure pulls out a blue beam of light, slicing the figure in half. "stuff, stuff, stuff, stuff!" It looks over at them and begins walking towards them. She runs to the corpse of a fallen ODST, picking up the shotgun in his hands. She runs at the door and shoots the glass by the handle, and is blown back from the kick as the glass shatters. Chy pulls the glass out of her white uniform. "Open the door, Phalanx, fall in to the armory!"

I use all my might to open it, "Chyler, protect us," I strain my mussels, "I need help!"

(Assuming we are forcing a door open)


Jacov reaches inside and hits the switch and the door slides open. He barely gets his hand out of the way. Chy stands up and tosses the shotgun to Steele and runs down the hall towards the armory. She slips on broken glass near the end, falling flat on her face. "Get in the armory!"
