Critical Technology

Andrew, Slosheey, and the rest of the squad attempt to take back Alpha-Bias.

Andrew stood by the grav lift of the ship waiting for his friends to come up. "Delta, scan the area for any enemies."
"Scanning..."
"No enemy contacts, you and your squad are safe for now."
Slosheey, Alex, Nicole, Payay, and Brutus arrived via the gravity lift. Andrew looked at Brutus "Did not expect to see you here."
"If it weren't for the fact that I have respect for you I would have already rid the school of humans."
Andrew walked right up to Brutus, who was a good head taller than him. "You want to say that to my face."
"I will crush you with little effort."
Just as Andrew had powered up his energy sword, Slosheey intervened, "Enough you two. Delta where can we find Alpha-Bias?"
Deltas image appeared next to Andrews head "I do not know for sure. He was last in the Patriarchs possession, and based on his injuries, the A.I is either still in the council chamber or with the Patriarch in the infirmary."
Andrew then broke in "We go to the council chamber first."
He turned and began to walk away. Nicole asked "Why?"
"Because I know how to get there."

The group moved through the halls. The ship was almost deserted because of the civil war on the ground.
"I thought the Patriarch recalled his troops?" Andrew said.
"He did, but he must have redeployed some."
The group travelled until they came to a four way intersection of hallways. Andrew began to turn right but Slosheey grabbed him and pulled him back. 
"Ahhhh, what was that for?!?" Andrew shouted.
"We can't go anywhere. Were surrounded."
Andrew looked in front of him and saw the same waviness that had appeared when Slosheey was invisible. Suddenly four Supremes deactivated their cloaking, making their presence known. They activated Lightning swords except for one who activated a long, single bladed, sword. The four began to advance on the group.
"What do we do, what do we do!" Alex said.
"Slosheey and Nicole take the one on my left in front of you, Brutus take the one in front of you, Payay and Alex take the one in front of you, and I’ve got Mr. One-Blade."
The group rushed their attackers. Nicole and Slosheey ran head first towards theirs. Nicole pulled out he Assault Rifle and fired at the Supreme. She slid in between it's legs and it looked down and stabbed into the floor trying to kill her. With its head facing down, Slosheey lifted his leg and cracked it on its neck, killing it. The Supreme facing Brutus swing it's sword at him. Brutus lifted his arm and let the sword impact his armor, burning it but not destroying it. Brutus than grabbed its own sword out of its hands and stabbed it with the sword, killing it. He then kicked the body out of his way. Alex and Payay stayed back and fired on the Supreme. Payay fired his Lightning Gun which lowered the reflective shielding and Alex fired his bullets into the un-shielded enemy, bringing it down easy. Unlike the other Supremes the minute that Andrew engaged his it swung it's sword at him. Andrew used his to parry the enemy. A long fight began between the two. Finally Andrew used his sword in an upper-cut. While the alien was recovering from the distraction, Andrew sliced him across the stomach.

The group entered a large room. Weapons lined the walls and computer databases ran down the center. "Delta I'm going to integrate you into the ships computer system" Andrew said. He approached one of the consoles and placed Deltas chip inside. Deltas hologram appeared on the computers screen. "Delta where is Alpha-Bias?"
"Scanning...." Deltas avatar stood still for a moment "Scan complete. The Patriarch has re-integrated Alpha-Bias with the ships Computer System. I may be able to pull him up here..." Slosheey walked over to the computer console. He reached under it and pulled out a ring like device. He tossed it to Andrew. "What is this?" Andrew asked.
"A storage device. You'll need it to transfer Alpha-Bias safely."
"You didn't use this to transport him."
"I wasn't transporting him safely."
"Oh yeah your smart!"
"Yes I am!"
Andrew began transferring Alpha-Bias to the storage device. He began browsing through the Arcs many files and folders and came across one marked KIROVIUM. Thinking that it might contain a way to defeat Kirovium he opened it. What he saw horrified him. "Slosheey! You better come here!"
Slosheey ran over while everyone else in the squad loaded up with weapons. "What is it?"
"Look." Andrew said pointing at the screen. 
Slosheey scanned the contents of the folder. He realized how important these files really were.
"Andrew, put the Kirovium file on the storage device to and look for a file containing information on Alpha-Bias. We will need that to."
Andrew, who also realized the true danger, did exactly as he was told.

The squad exited the armory at lightning speed. They dashed through the halls back to the grav lift. They had to get there before The Patriarch closed the doors or began moving the ship.
"With all due respect sir" Alex asked "What is so important on the storage device."
Andrew answered "It’s too long to explain now just keep moving!"
As the group ran the ships doors began to close. "Everyone concentrate fire on the doors!" Slosheey shouted.
The group fired several shots into the door ripping a hole in it that allowed them to pass through. As they continued running Andrew saw the one thing that this battle, which was already hectic enough, did not need. The return of the Special Operations.

"Lets go boys!" Mactavish heard a captain behind him yell. He turned just in time to see the returning Special Operations dispatching from their troop transports. Almost every single one of them had a Rocket Launcher of some type. The rockets began to fly. Hitting the school and the ship Mactavish knew exactly what was happening. "Phillips their trying to bring the school to the ground!"
"Well don't just stand there do something about it!" Mrs. Phillips answered.
As he talked he did not notice the Kirovium Warrior sneaking up behind him to kill him. An invisible figure ran past Mactavish, prompting him to turn around. He saw the figure strike the sword it carried. Having killed the warrior, the figure de-activated it's cloaking.
"Thank you Zatooma." Mactavish said. 
A Supreme clad in silver armor, Zatooma responded to Mactavish "You are welcome Sam."
"I asked you not to call me that when you rescued me."
"Ha-ha well I can have a little fun. It is the second time."
"Well putting that aside, what are we going to do about those?" Mactavish pointed at the Rocket soldiers.
"Can you get us a Phoenix drop ship?"
"Possibly."
Zatooma began removing the Energy source from his and his fallen Allies lightning guns, and collecting them in his hand.
"Let’s just say I have a plan."

Andrew and the squad dropped in from the ship via the Grav Lift. Alex and Nicole had put there masks back on but Andrew had lost his. The school was a grim battlefield. The heavy fighting had reduced the school to near rubble. The main fight was between Humans and their Allies fighting the Patriarchs loyal men. Kirovium had been reduced to a force that would jump one of the two sides when they least expected it and the Special Operations were really just a distraction. As they landed Alex turned and saw Kirovium Nests and Infectors leaving the battlefield into the civilian areas. "s#%$&!" Alex said as he ran after the Kirovium.

Alex chased after the Kirovium. If the infectious creatures got out into the world who knows what could happen. He fired on them. He managed to kill a few of them but they were getting away and at one point dived into the sewers.
