Shield of the Innocent - Mission 17.2 : Riots on Corellia
Bang! The ground shook. Koi and I immediately snapped into defensive positions, DC up, pressing against the closest wall for cover. „Approximatly 4 clicks south. Sounded like a thermal explosion.“ Koi really was an expert on demolition. „Ours or theirs?“ „Remember, none-lethal, so definitely theirs.“ I answered, my DC still raised. I could see a wall of smoke extending towards us through the street. „Switch to infrared.“ My HUD image flickered and suddenly I could see the remaining protestors as vague red and green patterns. „Tinnies, about 20, inbound on our position!“ Koi shouted. I knew. The characteristic clink-clank of marching droids was coming from the smoke in front of us. „Fall back, take cover. Check orbital observation.“ „Already on it, but we have no signal.“ „They can’t possibly jam us at that distance, the orbital station is right above us.“ „Must have taken it.“ Koi was a quick thinker. „I’d say impossible, but then again were facing a battalion of clankers with only riot gear, so it’s really not a day for impossibilities.“ Sergeant Jester came on the comm with more of a situation assessment than an explanation. „New orders, we are to advance and take out the droids or fall back and shield civilians.“ „Your call?“ „Civis.“ I loaded my DC. The first droids emerged from the smoke and immediately started firing. People came running our way, desperately trying to get behind me and my energy shield. „Any chance I can get a bigger one of these?“ I asked, emptying my clip into a droid about to mow down a group of civis on the sidewalk. „Actually, you can.“ „I though, no…. what?“ „Ray shields, GAR facility, inner perimeter.“ I was getting more fond of Koi by the minute. „Perfect!“ Still under fire we moved back, picking up civis on the way. „You found a girlfriend, Koi?“ A woman was clinging to him in desperation. „She’s grabbing my…“ „I don’t even want to know! Now get these ray shields running!“ Adrenaline made you say funny things. What did having a girlfriend even mean? I had no idea. I dropped the though, along with the next clanker coming across my DC. The shields came to life with a buzzing sound. Now it was my turn to push back the threat!
