Kieran nodded at Hahli's suggestion as he monitored his datafeeds and comms, and thought a moment before he opened the public channel again.

"Attention rebels. This is Black Castle in CRES-1. I need people to secure a corridor from the hangar to me and Hahli's position so we can shelter the freed slaves inside. Let's make it three streets wide, guard the flanks so they can have a smooth trip down the middle. I reccommend taking care of that first and sweeping out from the corridor once the prisoners are safe. I'll use my Suit's sensors for an aerial scan and highlight any contacts before I rejoin the prisoners' escort, but don't get sloppy. My MS isn't perfect, after all. We have wounded, so we could use the assistance of anyone with medical training once we get back to the hangar. Anyone who knows how to use their Aura to unlock someone else's would be really appreciated if they would do so for patients in the worst condition, it should help keep them stable.", Kieran broadcasted. The mercenary walked his MS away from the prisoners, and crouched before jumping and engaging his thrusters. Now airborne, Kieran made sure his sensors were running a full-spectrum scan before flying over the base in a rough spiral towards the center and then back to the prisoners. Checking the readings, he quickly set waypoints everywhere the sensors indicated potential contacts, and transmitted them to the rest of the rebel forces. He also highlighted as straight a route between the prisoners and the hangar as he could manage. He hailed Hahli once he noted the insurgents following his suggestion of creating a corridor.

"Problem solved. Now we just watch and wait till they reach us.", he said, before an idea occurred to him.

Kieran removed his machinegun's partial magazine, stored it on an empty hip rack, and loaded the weapon with his last full magazine. Walking over to Hahli's Zaku, he held it out to her and hailed her again.

"I should've thought of it sooner, but your MS needs better ranged capability, and I've got other options. Take it. Call me paranoid, but I'd prefer to be as prepared for any more surprises as I can manage. Especially now, when the mission's almost over.", the mercenary stated.
