"Ensign Franklin to any who can hear me. My team and a group of natives are trapped outside. We are in danger of being spotted by the attackers. Requesting aid." So much for being okay. Oliver braced himself for an attack.
"Herb," Angel said, in a voice that told Oliver that the distress signal wasn't the best move.
“Pardon me saying so, but I think your friends have other concerns right now. The mines aren’t far, you’re better off coming with us then standing in here waiting. Right now they aren’t shooting you don’t know how long that’ll last for.”
"That's not a good-" Angel stopped, and Oliver followed her gaze. Large masses were moving their way. A mae broke from the shelter and was quickly hit by a beam of energy. Oliver watched in horror and gave his companion a squeeze as she cried out in terror. Other mae who had attempted to flee the shelter fell back to the cave. Angel was pulling out her weapons, old western style and Oliver wondered if he could ever shoot another being to protect himself. Another energy beam felled another mae, and he decided that he could shoot to protect these people. His eyes met with the haunted look of one of the mae. There was an explosion nearby and Oliver felt as though he'd been doused in ice water.
Please don't let anyone be hurt. Please don't let anyone be hurt. Please...

OOC: First of all, I would like to apologize for the wait. Yesterday, I spent the whole day at the Renaissance Faire, and this morning I was attacked by two large dogs and spent the greater part of my day in the ER being stitched up (under not so effective local anaesthesia I might add.) I would have posted while I was waiting around between doctor visits, but my phone wasn't getting the best reception. On the positive side of things, almost being mauled to death by dogs really put the stress of college admissions into perspective.
