Reynolds: "Only what I've heard as rumors." Reynolds never had an issue lying. Now more so than ever. He kept his composure despite his deeper thoughts thinking they were onto his schemes. Reynolds: "Allegedly an anti-alien group of cultists. From what I've heard, they're more myth than reality. But if you say they're here, then I stand corrected." He began thinking about it some more and that they couldn't have known about Reynolds' involvement. Reynolds: "If it's as serious as you say, then what's the plan?" Meanwhile: Calhoun and Robertson stayed behind the corner waiting to ambush the Trust ODSTs. When the four turned the corner, Calhoun and Robertson rifle bashed two of them. They stumbled backwards leaving Robertson to shoot them both with his shotgun. The other two began pulling out their weapons, the first dual SMGs. He was shooting at Robertson, successfully getting multiple shots into one of his arms. Robertson picked up one of the dead ODSTs and began using him as a meat shield. Calhoun however, tackled the dual-wielding ODST. He jumped on the downed ODST and began smashing his VISR in with his assault rifle's stock. With Robertson behind a dead soldier and Calhoun thrashing the Trust ODST's face in, the second ODST, had his advantage. He pulled out his knife and successfully stabbed Calhoun in the back. The ODST that stabbed turned to find Robertson's shotgun in his face. Robertson: "Surprise, Fucker." Robertson then shot the ODST's face, the VISR and helmet shattered and shredded through the skull. He then went to go and help Calhoun. Calhoun had slumped over and his blood was already mixing with the pool of the dead Trust soldiers' on the floor. Robertson rummaged through Calhoun's backpack, finding some medigel and tending to the wound, only after pulling out the knife. When Robertson saw the wound fill, he rolled Calhoun on his back and pulling off his helmet. Calhoun was already going pale and cold. Robertson: "Come on, don't die on me. You've beaten the odds once, do it again!" Robertson clasped the man's hand. Robertson: "Stay with me, come on." Calhoun didn't say anything, instead stared at Robertson. He began choking on his blood. Robertson still wasn't ready to give up on Calhoun, instead performing CPR to help get him to breathe. Robertson: "Come on, Dammit! Not! Like! This!" Robertson continued to perform CPR until Calhoun went still and his choking subsided. Robertson simply sat there. He felt his rage boil over. He felt angry at how their mission had gone sideways ever since they left the Mind's Attrition. He very well could lose most of his team. For now though, he grabbed Calhoun's dogtags and got up. His BDU was covered in blood, most of which was Calhoun's. Robertson applied some of the medigel to his wounds and rummaged some of Calhoun's equipment, taking important things like grenades and what was left of the first aid supplies. He then turned to the head to the Trust's Engineering level, radioing Frost with an update. Robertson: "Captain Frost, this is Sergeant Robertson. Calhoun is down, Ma'am. He's gone."
