Here are the definitions for Aegle and Bertha, in case you're wondering. -GL --- As Alicia saw Prism hold the enemy leader at bladepoint, she saw her ceasefire signal, and stopped firing.

"Spill it," came Prism's voice on the comm set as the two remaining snipers heard her threat.

"This is going to be good," Alicia bubbly remarked as she continued her narration.

"Search for explosives and a detonator," came Memories' voice on the comm.

Suddenly, both Alicia and Loretta had a concerned look on their faces as they heard low growls as a murder of crows flew from their perches... -- As the leader was being held up, the voice once again spoke on the radio.

"Well, that plan of yours was quite disappointing. Thankfully for you, I came prepared."

"You see, if you want the mission to succeed, you gotta ease up, watch for all possible angles, and be willing to break a few rules."

"I had my doubts and my suspicions, which is why I broke mission protocol. Now I'm the one in charge. See you later, everyone."

The voice went silent as Lorelei Stanford, now inside the ship, cut off communications with the frequency, as if she expected the enemy to listen in. A lieutenant-ranked officer, she was called in from Mistral after the Lieutenant From Vale was nowhere to be found.

The snow leopard Faunus had recalled the remnants of Bear Team, who had now formed into a single group a few dozen grunts strong. She was now in charge of dealing with the explosives. Whatever they couldn't carry, they were ready to detonate. She was going try her damned hardest that she wouldn't end up empty handed as a handful of the team were carrying weapons and munitions crates in the middle echelon of the team, as she signalled HQ for several armored Bullheads to aid in extraction, currently balsting through walls and doors to create a path to the exfil point.

When she turned a corner, the body of a grunt fell in front of her as Seager stood in her way.

As Seager cracked a grin, so did Lorelei behind her mask. Despite all the preparations and effort it took to carry out the mission, she was going to enjoy every moment of it, especially now, when the blade of her oversized hedge trimmer, Steel Shredder, clashed with Seager's harpoon-sword. While both blades were not damaged, they bounced off due to the way they were made and how they operated.

However, Lorelei took another chance to make another swing using the momentum and then follow-up with two kicks to the chest, sending him back a few paces. "Okay, Aegle, Bertha! He's all yours! See you at topside!"

Aegle was a quick and cunning speedster that used every dirty trick in the book as he sprayed Seager with 9mm bullets as he swiped with his knife. Bertha was a heavy bruiser that was as ruthless as she was strong, landing a punch that sent Seager tumbling back a few feet, though the coarse shark skin did scratch her knuckles. Bertha made a note of this as she pulled out a pair of gloves.

The attacks served two purposes. It bought her time to reload and assess her situation. The two goons were supposed to stall Seager even if they fell, and they did a better job due to being better trained and disciplined. Additionally, it allowed her to both strike back and continue on with Bear Team's escape.

The opportunity came when Seager rebounded with slamming Aegle onto a wall, and keeping Bertha at bay, where Lorelei launched a barrage of rounds at Seager and continuing to make a path through the walls in another direction while the rearguard of her group provided covering fire. This left Seager pinned down and alone with two White Fang mooks, ready to kill ...
