Gra'tua Cuun (D7 EN)

[Meiyokashi]

Returning fire Raven's bolts pepper her target, who looks down on her about to shout something as the electrical current running around the outside armor sparks up due to the chamber- shocking the target enough that her body falls limp and falls over the railing down beside Raven. With a quick check the raider was still breathing but she was no longer conscious. Alerting to the battle overhead still as Soleene pushes the raider back their boot scratches against the metal grating and they rush forward back into the fray without a second thought. Pushing themselves into Soleene's presence they go to drive the vibro-blade deep into her throat but she's able to deflect the blow, the blade bashing against the side of her helmet and gracing her with what felt like eternal ringing.

Meanwhile down below the two raiders still standing, battered and bloody, make retreating fire as they move toward Ketsu's body. Each pulling stims from within their packs but only the second managing to get down and jam it into Ketsu's side.

[Soleene Stryss]

"Ugghhh..." Soleene murmured as she wasn't feeling so great after that hit to her helmet, making her stagger a few steps. She tried to shake the cobwebs from her head as she stepped forward, really concentrating on her swing to pinpoint it on her opponent. Unfortunately, her focus wasn't enough and the hit went over their head to clatter against the wall.

[Raven Cadera]

"Support Soleene!" Raven called out, moving her attention towards those who had gone where Ketsu had fallen. If they were grouping up...

Seeing them indeed grouping up as she moved for a better vantage spot, the Cadera warrior withdrew the grenade from her belt and with a great hurl threw the grenade towards the closest of the warriors sheltering Ketsu. It was a pretty impressive throw, considering few could manage such a feat from that distance.

However, the explosion didn't do more than to spray harmlessly against their beskar.

[Meiyokashi]

As the grenade landed, the warrior was tossing away the stim that they'd used on Ketsu. In a quick movement they put themselves between Ketsu, their other comrade and the grenade, sheltering them with their body and beskar. As the blast clouded the room with it's percussive force everyone regained their focus together as the warrior shielded helped the shielding one back to their feet.

Meanwhile.. Ketsu lunged forward for her gun, scrambling she gets it into her hands and through the battle haze focuses on the woman in front of her, one that very recently earned her respect. "Maybe.." she coughs up some blood, "you're not bad kid.. but this is the real deal," she says, mustering up the strength she aims up toward her despite the heaviness she feels in her body drifting her aim downward. When she fires at Varina the truly vicious barrage of bolts makes impact far lower than she intended and as it did Varina collapsed face first into the ground.

[Varina Ordo]

The rifle slipped out of Varina's hands as she hit the ground. Maybe she could get onto her knees if both of them were functional. Somebody's... gotta pay for my new street clothes...

Blehp. Her tongue definitely stuck out as she lied there.

[Meiyokashi]

As the battle rages on, the sound of a boot impacting the door to get inside the office from outside could be heard above. It was heard again, and again, very distant and easy to forget or dismiss as the sound paled to the intensity of the ongoing battle around them..

Claymore's fire pelts against the beskar of the warrior tussling with Soleene and with a sudden lurch forward they were as haggard as she was. Catching themselves on Soleene's shoulder they looked up to her, a growl on his voice, "Not.. yet.. me and you," he says, and then jams his blade into Soleene's chest just past her armor so it digs in deep. That visor looking back at her, the eyes somewhere hidden behind it, the being using her weight almost as his own as energy left his body and he was moving entirely on spirit alone. However, even that spirit gave out after he made his last cut as he fell limp against her.

Meanwhile, as the grenade explodes and Ketsu's people get her back up. Blast bolts taking down Varina as she falls into a lump. Ketsu struggled to her feet, blaster on the ground for support as her comrades split off into separate directions both firing heavily on Raven.

Once Ketsu reached her feet, she pointed between herself and Raven, "We're finishing this," she laughed, weakened and battle weary as she was the tone took on an even greater menacing nature. Hefting up her blaster she aimed down on Raven and all three together unleashed a torrent of blaster bolts that churned up dust as they impacted her and everything around.

[Raven Cadera]

Raven gritted her teeth under the helmet, feeling the pressure on her as she finally had the attention of all of them. Damnit, Varina was down and it looked pretty bad for the kid, but there was no time to dwell on it now and Raven quickly centered her mind on what needed to be done. Clarity of battle was upon her on what she needed to do.

One of the Raider's shots hit the weak spots, and without thinking she already had a stim in hand that jabbed into her side, jolting her adrenaline higher than it already was. All the missed shots and the shots ricocheting off her armor was knocking up dust, some slipping into the helmet as she hadn't sealed it shut completely, but it didn't stop her from advancing, aiming at Ketsu with her carbine.

Her shot missed, though it had been close. "Three against one? Didn't think you had it in you to face someone head on like this," there was a menace to her words, grinning as she was behind her helmet now. She had missed the thrill of battle.

[Soleene Stryss]

Soleene was not expecting that stab and it completely caught her off-guard. It was deadly and it hurt like hell! However, she found herself very lucky that she managed to maintain consciousness when the pain would have been enough to knock her on her feet and take her out of her fight. Or worse. She took laboured breaths through her helmet and struggled to remain on her feet. Things were not well and she was already pushing things with her last attack. Now erring on the side of caution, she took out her stim and took her last injection to stabilize herself.

It was unfortunate she couldn't take this moment to keep fighting but she was no use dead.

[Meiyokashi]

As the last volley passes through Ketsu comes rushing out toward her, through the kicked up dust creating a bit of a cloud of cover which lit up with every successive volley. Firing her own it impacts Raven directly, striking against more than just armor as she bears down on her. As the volley finished she'd closed the distance, tossing her rifle down to the side and moving in close- grabbing onto Raven's wrists. "Asked where Carid was, right?" she said, her voice a weakened but bloodthirsty. She laughs darkly, having a coughing vit as the visors clash, "Where's your husband?" she asks, and laughs wildly as the two contest in pitched battle of grip and strength.

Meanwhile, with Ketsu rushing in the two other fighters in position take up aim at Claymore. The fight wasn't over till it was over- and they saw opportunity here. While the first fired against his armor, the bolts deflecting off the plating that was there, it was the second volley from even further apart that did some damage.

[Raven Cadera]

Staggering slightly back from the bolt that hit her, Raven used the second stim from the easily-accessible pouch on her hip. Then Ketsu barrelled into her, setting the two women against eachother in a clash of will and strength.

... If Carid wasn't here... was Ketsu saying that he had gone back to the Enclave? Was this the meaning of the trap? For a brief second, she saw again the scene with Praxton bleeding out on what had supposed to have been the beginning of their lives joined. The happiest she had felt in years, all crushed by these... these bastards!

Finding her resolve shaken, but not bent or broken, Raven pushed back against Ketsu with a wordless shout as she grabbed her mother's sword. Fear had set in, but for Raven who had so often been driven by fear in her life, it was also a strong motivator. As soon as the blade had left the scabbard, it cut upwards in a lethal flourish at the other woman, and the Cadera Mandalorian quickly followed up with a forward kick to push her down.

"You made the mistake of messing with the wrong woman, laandur hut'uun."

As the door up above comes slamming open the first one through is a wild-card as they go, jetpack flaring, flying through the open window space and hover in the space central to everyone.

Peppering his space with some good blaster fire she opens up an opportunity for one of the others!
