Re: Omni-Tek Medusa Extermination Expedition/Defense of 20k - 28 Jan 29478
Yesterday evening near the Whompahs of Omni-1 Entertainment, officers of Omni-tek Armed Forces put out a calling to all employees to help aid in the defense of the town of 20k against a possible Medusa invasion. Several dozen employees responded to the calling, including members of IC: Ammicus, Eternalforce, Luckybravado (of Omni-InternOps) and Hanshi, Stefanie, Iomen and myself (of Division 9 RSGE). [If I miss your name, sorry, the whole thing was kind of chaotic as you well know hehe]
Since this falls under the definition of Div9's charter, we rushed to their aid.
When we were gathered, and formed into ranks, the details of this mission were very shady at best. We were led to 20k, and given the impression that the medusas intended to attack the town. We were to put a stop to this.
However, after several minutes, there was a sudden change in plan, and were lead out into the fields and woods of Pleasant Meadows, apparently to search and destroy a known medusa encampment in the area. We were not given details as to why the Medusas exactly were a threat, but insetad we were blindly told to destroy all of them, and capture an important one, by the name of Ninya.
After several minutes roaming the woods, each squad was suddenly ambushed by a gang of medusas. Initial casualties were high, but our force was able to fight our way into a medusa encampment near a cave. There we found a large and powerful medusa, apparently guarding something. We quickly destroyed her.
At that moment, a Free Reporter of Rubi-ka seemed to appear from nowhere, and questioned our activities. She seemed also to be protecting something. She seemed to implicate that our actions were illegal and questionable, which in my opinion, I have no evidence to prove otherwise given the lack of solid direction and lack of information we were given about this mission throughout it.
Then suddenly Ninya was spotted, cowering atop the cave...I rushed to her first, and began to question her. At the same time, many other members of the squad followed and the medusa became frightened andtried to run. She ran near the cave and stopped there, apparently too frightened to move.
We were then ordered to capture her. I was able to console this creature, and convince it that if it joined our team, we would keep it safe from harm. This is what I had intended to do, until she was in the charge of our commanders.
I then proceeded to grid evac. We then waited in the grid for several minutes, and I was told to hold the captured medusa until further notice.
After a few minutes, the Medusa became frightened by the comments of General Ammicus (in my squad), and began to flee in the grid. She moved to the second floor where she seemed to disappear from the grid instantly.
We were then told by our commanders that, namely Lt. Shedo, that the mission was a success and the medusa had been captured and was in their custody. We were given no more details, but a pat on the back, and told to go on our way.
Conclusion: The mission objectives were apparently completed, but I fervently believe the true motives of the mission were kept from us intentionally, whatever those might be.
