"Hathor to Assult 1, she is moving away with shields. Dispatching tha last
of the pirate raiders now. Get those shields down so we can transport you
off." came a call from Lasiter.
Kit called to her team. "Let's go! Team 2 needs help!" She started to run
in their direction. She slapped her com badge. "Hathorrr, you'll have to
trrry and knock those shields out yourrrself rrright now, Team 2 is being
overrrwhelmed and we'rrre going to aid them. When that situation's underrr
contrrrol, we'll take carrre of the shields."
"We'll do our best. Good luck. Hathor out."
Seconds later Kit and Team One arrived to where Team Two was being picked
apart. They could not join up as the hail storm of Felinid fire was just too
intense. Team One was pinned down in adjoining alcoves that they were using
for cover. Kit could see the team leader's lifeless body. He was hit square
in the chest by a phaser blast. Of the original 9 members of team two, only 5
were still shooting.
A granade was tosses down the hall by the opposing Cats. Three seconds
later it went off, sending smoke and schrapnel into the air. Two more bodies
from team two fell.
The opposing force was shotting from an alcove down the cooridor and from
two other hallways that joined up, one on the left and one on the right about
2 meters apart.
"Sir, "called one of Kit's specialists, "We have a problem. My tricorder
indicates that we are being flanked. Reinforcements are coming in from our
right. They will be able to get behind us and create a cross fire. No clear
estimate on how many that are coming around, but it looks like we are facing
about 12 infront of us, possibly 15."
