"Alright boys, give me some room here," Aicaya says as she strides forward, tightening her grip on the pile bunker mounted on her left forearm. Jet backs away from the door, waiting for Aicaya to bust it down so he can run in and resume his looting. She places the tip of the weapon a few inches above the hole in the door and fires. A heavy, sharpened spike rockets out of the weapon like a point-blank Ballista on steroids and pummels through the door- for about six inches. Then it rebounds, snaps, and flings a chunk of metal that scrapes the right side of Aicaya's forehead as it soars past. "♥♥♥♥." Despite being a shallow wound, it bleeds copiously and stings quite a bit. "Nice one," John and Jet simultaneously quip. "SHUTUP."

D uses his razor sharp nano blade claws to begin slicing up the metal armor of the bots into smaller chunks. Although he is capable of producing rough bullets for the ZIGER by hand, it would probably be better to use a utility laser or even use the services of a munitions manufacturer to create the ammo. D examines the other bots and find them to be in a similar state as the Marksman prototypes- old, uncared for, and with all of the wiring and power sources dilapidated beyond use.

It has a significantly shorter barrel, a forward mounted grip, heavy metal plating, and several gruesome looking blades, enhancing its durability for and usefulness in close quarters combat. It's been re-chambered for the heavier rounds usually found in precision rifles.
Secondary Weapon: I-2 Custom [20|10]
---An older variant of the current standard issue ISC sidearm, it fires the same low velocity ammunition of the new handguns. Fitted with a lighter polymer slide and a shaved down grip, it sacrifices balance and accuracy to make it one of the lightest weapons produced.
Secondary Weapon: Utataku Experimental Recoilless Automatic Pistol (UXRAP) [20|50]
---A .45 caliber pistol using an experimental design, coupling a shock-absorbing frame, enlarged muzzle brake, ported barrel, and heavy grip to dramatically reduce recoil, leading to high accuracy even when using fully automatic fire.

"Bore-ring." Upon seeing that John and Aicaya aren't going to do anything about the door, and not feeling like trying again himself, Jet walks off and moves down the hall. "Let's check this out," he says out loud as he turns into the first door that shows up. A sign just above the door reads AI CONSTRUCTION. Inside the door is a room that's not particularly large, but the large spacing between the furniture lends it the illusion of being quite spacious. Computer terminals and desks in orderly lines take up most of the room, but in the back is a series of large connected... boxes? Metal boxes, with vents in the sides and cooling tubes flowing in between them. "A supercomputer? Well, not like I can loot that. Sigh."

His lust for awesome things and/or money, although preferably both, rising once again, Jet suddenly remembers the armory full of potentially valuable experimental weapons. "Maybe those two have got the door open by now?" he ponders out loud as he steps into the hall. Just as he approaches the door leading into the armory, he sees John fling two rather wide Kamaitachi blades at the door. At first it seems there's no effect, but then Aicaya moves over and gives the middle of the door a solid kick, sending it sliding back a little. "Ooh, nice, you cut all the way through on top and bottom!" With the help of her powered armor, she's able to push the chunk of door all the way through and out the other side, leaving a neatly sliced hole that is roughly three feet long by three feet wide. "Looks like a bit of a tight fit, though," she says with a frown.

Aicaya steps forward and wordlessly inspects the door for a few seconds. John waits for her to back away a little before saying, "You may wanna move over, I'm gonna try busting it down one more time." "Oh, sure thing," she replies, stepping to the side a few feet. John charges up a second pair of Kamaitachi, but shapes them to be about twice as wide as a regular Kamaitachi. Alright, that looks to be about the width of the door, but the thing is pretty thick too, so... Putting quite a bit of effort into it, he concentrates an enormous amount of ether- likely five times as much as he would regularly use- into the two blades before hurling them at the door. John feels nearly exhausted even as they leave his hand, although he immediately notices that the enlarged blades move much more quickly than their normal counterparts; so quickly, in fact, that they seem to go straight through the door rather than make any physical contact with it. He blinks a little in surprise and confusion as he wonders if the attack even did anything. Aicaya moves over and gives the middle of the door a solid kick, sending it sliding back a little. "Ooh, nice, you cut all the way through on top and bottom!" With the help of her powered armor, she's able to push the chunk of door all the way through and out the other side, leaving a neatly sliced hole that is roughly three feet long by three feet wide.

Aicaya steps forward and peers closely at the door. It seems too thick for a single HE shell to knock it down, and too wide for an AP shell to do anything more than punch straight through a relatively small section. She moves back a little bit, trying to decide what to do, when John says, "You may wanna move over, I'm gonna try busting it down one more time." "Oh, sure thing," she replies, stepping to the side a few feet. Aicaya notices that John seems to be putting quite a bit of effort and concentration into his attack- not to mention quite a bit more ether than usual. Hm. Maybe that'll do the trick? Well, guess I'll find out now. He throws two enlarged Kamaitachi that go straight through the door. At first, it seems like they have no effect on the metal bulwark, so Aicaya moves over and gives the middle of the door a solid kick, sending it sliding back a little. "Ooh, nice, you cut all the way through on top and bottom!" With the help of her powered armor, she's able to push the chunk of door all the way through and out the other side, leaving a neatly sliced hole that is roughly three feet long by three feet wide.

Conditions

D decides to head over to where the rest of the group is. He moves to the R&D sections and sees Jet head out of a room which, according to the sign over the door, is the AI CONSTRUCTION section. Jet walks down the hall without noticing D and enters a second room with a sign that reads EXPERIMENTAL ARMORY & FIRING RANGE. Both rooms could be appealing to D, but he's not sure which one to head into first.

AFK
=============================================
Appearance: 5'9"
===Equipment===
Primary Weapon: Jackson [3|39]
---A heavily modified semi-automatic rifle, derivative of the twentieth century M14. It has a significantly shorter barrel, a forward mounted grip, heavy metal plating, and several gruesome looking blades, enhancing its durability for and usefulness in close quarters combat. It's been re-chambered for the heavier rounds usually found in precision rifles.
Secondary Weapon: I-2 Custom [20|10]
---An older variant of the current standard issue ISC sidearm, it fires the same low velocity ammunition of the new handguns. Fitted with a lighter polymer slide and a shaved down grip, it sacrifices balance and accuracy to make it one of the lightest weapons produced.
Secondary Weapon: Utataku Experimental Recoilless Automatic Pistol (UXRAP) [20|50]
---A .45 caliber pistol using an experimental design, coupling a shock-absorbing frame, enlarged muzzle brake, ported barrel, and heavy grip to dramatically reduce recoil, leading to high accuracy even when using fully automatic fire. A high-capacity magazine and full-auto fire make this gun absolutely devastating at close to mid range.
