Runt?! Before you could protest that, she grabs your hand and drags you forward again. "But who gives a shit about that? Come on, it's not like I'm gonna chase ya if I get preggers of somethin', that's taken care of. I haven't been laid the entire fucking time we've been stuck on this damn rig, and if I don't get some I swear I'm going to go completely fucking insane--"

You stop her again, this time hauling her back, now. She looks at you with widened eyes, and you take advantage of her stunned silence by pointing towards the stairs leading to the warehouse's second floor.

"TWO," you growl, before pointing to yourself and then clasping both your hands and resting your cheek against them. Miming the universal sign for sleeping. Or being so drunk off your ass you're knocked unconscious.

"Two other guys're sleeping off booze on the second floor?" Revy grins at this. "Well, that's even better! Alright, I guess you're free to go, then! Ya won't have to tell your wife about this!"

Shaking your head, you march stiffly out of the warehouse, feeling a sudden need for a very cold shower and very robust scrub.

Urrrgh. You're not all that happy to remember that you've been through this exact situation before. The first time turned out much better than this time, though, but...

You shake your head again as you find yourself outside the Warehouse, with your new uniform. It's a bit loose around the sleeves, but not enough that you look like someone who'd stolen a uniform and wearing it as a disguise. Making you indistinguishable from the security detail roaming around Big Shell.

Anyway. Where do you go, now? Do you want to investigate the other struts, or go directly to the core of Shell 2? You'll note that the security detail in front of the entrance to the core is somewhat thinned out, but still a considerable presence.

[]Go to Shell 2 Core. You've prepared enough.
[]Go to Strut K.
[]Go to Strut J.

Are we still Sayaka? Isnt she suppose to be a competent one? Should've just finish her mission already.

Strut K, may as well keep discussion short

Based Decu.

Why Shell 2 core?

We're looking for a box, right? It doesn't seem likely that it would be in an air purification room or filtration chambers.

Shell 1 has two "blank" areas and a computer room.

>>29989572
Probably some "things" need to happen

>>29989593

Of course I might be missing a reference since I'm not really an MGS fan

For me it looks like few events need to happen, what they will be it depends on out choice (see meeting Revy), in the end Decu will drive us to our destination anyway.

You fidget slightly in your stolen uniform as you make your way to Strut K. From what you can remember from the dossier Kyuubey's given you, it's the part of Shell 2 that houses a Biochem Lab. You're not all that sure what you'll find there, but if it helps to give you a clue as to where they're keeping your main objective, then it was a trip worth taking.

As you make your way towards the strut - keeping your pace hurried but calm, trying your best not to attract undue attention - it's here that you switch on your helmet's own comms, after making sure the one you shared with your two captured team mates are lowered enough to not carry in case they tried to reach you. Seeing if their own idle radio chatter could give away just where the item you're looking for is stored - or whatever the fuck it actually is, besides a jewelry box.

...

After a few moments, you irritably switch the comms off. No such luck. Whoever hired the security detail made sure that even the security detail didn't know what the hell they were supposed to be guarding. And whatever security agency they came from was smart enough to encrypt their comm-language with an unfamiliar lexicon, just in case anyone unauthorized would be listening it - making it useless for you to listen in just to keep track of what they're doing.

You let out an irritated breath into your helmet's air filter. God damn Murderface and her stupid plans - if it'd just been you working alone, or with Kyoko, this'd be a much simpler milk run.

And Kyoko herself wouldn't have been--

No. No. There's no need to think about her, not right now. Kyoko's hurt, but she's still alive - and Murderface promised you she'd take care of everything.

...Jesus. You're trusting Murderface with Kyoko now? Really?

God damn. You're much more far gone than you fucking thought.

Anyway. Strut K. There are two guards stationed outside the Biochem Lab, but they merely wave you through as soon as you come near. ...Didn't even ask for an off-helmet identity check. You bite back the temptation to lecture them about being just as bad as regular jackoffs when it comes to keeping shit secure - it'd probably fall on deaf ears and give you away anyway, so why bother?

The Biochem lab is just what you imagined: a boring biochemistry nerd's dream, filled with test tubes, microscopes, chemicals and whatever else they use to look at really small stuff with. The entire place is painted a blinding, sterile white, too - making you feel that much more out of place with your stolen black uniform. Thankfully, it's deserted, and clearly haven't been used for a while.

There's nothing really of interest here, which is also a bit disappointing. You were expecting...well, you don't really know what you were expecting. Maybe a hidden room full of human-sized test tubes, with naked Magical Girls swimming inside them? Or another room, full of deformed clones of someone, each one begging you to kill them than let them suffer another moment of their cursed existence.

That would've been really cool, anyway.

A bit more ransacking of the place nets you something you could probably go on, though - a box of printouts, freshly discarded in a bin. A lot of the printed information is blacked out with black marker, but most of it seems to describe some sort of huge battle tank or something being stored in the recently-converted Shell 2 Core, and how it's been modified to no longer require a pilot, instead operating fully on a rigidly-coded AI.

Huh. Well. That's...neat, you guess? An automated tank thing? You're not too sure why the fuck it'd be stored here, in the middle of the fucking ocean of all places. What good is a tank when you're surrounded with water?

>>29990619

>>29990642

You shake your head here, crumpling the papers and tossing them back into the bin. Just some shit about a tank, then. No clue as to where the main objective's stored, or what it is.

...That said, would they still store the item in Shell Core 2? Maybe they're using the tank itself as a sort of sentry for it, just like how Haruka's guarded by automated guns back in HQ?

Hmm. That kind of makes sense, then, if you think about it--

Your train of thought is interrupted by a small beeping sound in your ear - and your eyes go wide as you recognize the sound. It's your codec headset, calling for attention.

Looking around briefly - making sure you're clear - you crouch down behind a file cabinet before all but tearing your helmet off. Pressing the earbud tighter against your ear with your index finger to amplify the sound.

"Sayaka...?" It's Kyoko, her voice strained and weak, but otherwise fine. "Sayaka, are you there? Guh, this sucks...goddamn fuckers shot my goddamn leg AND arm off...! Sayaka, are you there?"

Well, she's complaining, so that's a good thing, at least. That means she's still kicking.

How do you respond?

So... It's entirely possible that what they're guarding and what we're after isn't the same thing.

Or, what we're after is something which is an absolutely vital component OF the thing they're guarding.

Hmm.

The main thing is, they're probably going to assume we're after what they're guarding, so this could still work out in our favor.

I doubt they're using illusions over the Codec.

>>29990672
We know she said our name, and we know they were stripping both captives of their gear before putting them into a silent room.

There's no reason Kyoko should ever still have comms on her at this point.

In fact, if Murderface put her comms away before surrendering herself, the fact that Kyoko had a comms device and Murderface didn't more or less confirms to them 100% that there's someone else in on the operation.

...but even if this is a trap, it's one that would be totally OOC not to fall into, so hey.

Kyoko and Murderface are in the hands of our OpFor, and we know, because we heard them discussing it, that both were stripped of their gear and soul gems, and thrown in a silent room.

Assuming Kyoko broke under pressure and told them about us, they already know we are on the station somewhere. So telling our general location after learning of their situation isn't that bad.

Plus if they knew we were on the station and were listening in, why not just tell us to go to a specific location or they will kill Kyoko and Chiaki?

>>29990960
best thing we can do is play us off as being an outside contact

>>29990960

The fact that she called us by name means one of two things. That if the enemy is listening in, they already know we are here. Or that she has in fact escaped and trying to regain contact.

>>29991052

Or someone googled the officio webpage.

I think knowledge that kyoko and sayaka are together might be widespread considering that they're know as the famous husband-wife team of the ninth.

If Kyoko broke under interrogation (hard to believe she would so quickly), then they already know about Sayaka, so no reason not to answer. The headset issue is not necessarily a big deal, since if they escaped somehow, Chiaki could probably have pulled a new one from the Shield.

Though its professional not to reveal your location anyway, until you know whats going on.

>>29991114
>Chiaki could probably have pulled a new one from the Shield
she shouldn't still have the shield unless they - somehow - overlooked it.'

Maybe we're not as famous as we think

I don't think it's a secret that we're Kyoko's girlfriend, so that would explain why they might be fishing with our name.
OTOH I don't know if connecting the comm device thing is that easy.

>>29991149
i always find it weird how anon assumed chiaki has her shield when they stripped the girls of their gear. even if they do not know what it is, i dont think they would just leave a hugeass weird shield thing on her arm be.

>>29991163
they dont even know who they caught.

>>29991149
>>29991186
The Shield is a magical weapon. If they stripped it, then Chiaki simply summons a new one. Only reason she wouldn't be able to would be if she was in a Silent Room. Which we are now assuming she isn't, due to Murderface being on her A-game now that /tg/ isn't in control.

>>29991186
>>29991149
Here is a little hint guys
The shield is part of her costume
What happens when she "depowers" when they take her soul gem then when she is safely locked in the silent room recostumes

>>29991194

They know they caught someone from the 9th. That is enough to figure out Chiaki and Kyokos identity as that is public information.

>>29991213

They took her soul gem and threw her in a silent room.

She ain't got shit.

>>29991227

Either way it's a gamble. If they are in a silent room and they are fishing to see if there is a third person, we give ourselves away if we speak. If they have escaped and we say nothing, we leave them in the dark.

This discussion is going in circles, can we talk about something else?

>>29991228
also, Kyoko actually used Sayakas name right before she got sniped.

The only question if they know quite who they have. Sure, they could figure it out easy enough. The only question is whether they have reason enough to investigate.

>>29991254
the ninth is, after all, a big Officio. There's no reason to assume you're going to find it's warmaster sneaking around your defend mission.

On the other hand, Murderface is kinda infamous, and her perfect time stop bordering on legendary.

You bite back the instinct to start lecturing Kyoko over codec. Namely, how the fuck did she get tagged by a sniper? You know she can move much, much faster than that. Hell, she can fucking block bullets with her spear! What the hell happened there?

But yeah. that's...that's for after you all get the hell out of here with the main objective. You'll have all the time in the world to grill Kyoko about her careless mistakes once she's safe in a sickbay bed, getting ready to regenerate her lost limbs.

So instead of that, you ask her status. And how's she getting in contact with you, anyway? Didn't they take her gear, along with Murderface's?

"Not so good, but I'm not bleedin' all over the place anymore, so that's a plus." You hear her grunting in exertion, her breathing ragged. "An' Murderface palmed me hers just after they tazed her. Managed to keep it outta their reach when they started friskin' us - don't ask me how." She laughs, weakly. "Owww. It hurts to laugh, too? Goddamn bitch broke my ribs...!"

You tell her to suck it up and deal with the pain. To remember her training.

"Y-yeah. Yeah. It's...it's worse than it sounds, Sayaka. I'll be fine."

...Right. What about Murderface, then? How is she?

"They got her in the Silent Room next door. ...I think mine's sorta busted, or it's not gettin' enough juice, because I haven't even thrown up once." Another pained grunting from Kyoko, this time enough that you couldn't help but grit your teeth yourself.

"...They're workin' her over with a baseball bat, l-last I heard. I think they're tryin' to break her kneecaps or somethin'. Doesn't seem to be workin', though...all I hear is a lot of hitting, an' Murderface laughin'. Ya know, like Kharn used to? When she really got mad?"

Oh. ...Well, shit.

How do you respond?

How about looking for weaknesses in the AI pilot program? If we can get the Metal Gear to go berzerk and wreck the base, we'll have a hell of a diversion to grab Kyoko, Murderface and the package.

So is that part of Chiaki's plan? Or should we break her out of prison to get her to hijack the Gear before we grab the package?

It's generally lumped in Homura's powerset. I don't know if Decu's going with or not, but I think it would be fair to assume that we kept that, since it seemed to be a part of Homura and not related to the Shield

>>29991644
The only question now is whether or not we take the bait of heading down to the Shellcore immediately.

Sayaka is probably dumb enough to do it.

I hate to say it but Kyoko's story sounds rather... convienient. Irritatingly it's just enough to be believable, though.

Think they purposely left Kyoko in a low powered silent room? A logical extension of the same tactics they employed when sniping Kyoko?

>>29991697

>>29991702

Kyoko has some slight Culexus powers and training. She can resist their powers a little bit. So it stands to reason that silent rooms, that work like the Culexus magic nullification power, don't effect her as much as other magical girls.

I dunno. It sounds like fairly standard interrogation technique.

Kyoko is already fucked up. So now they're trying to rattle her by letting her hear Murderface's interrogation.

...which would probably work out a lot better if it wasn't Murderface they were trying to torture, and Kyoko they were trying to rattle.

>>29991911

Robot thing in Shell 2 Core...? Probably the AI-controlled tank you read about, then, which pretty much confirms where you think the main objective may be stored. You scramble for the bin you just threw the printouts into and uncrumple them - looking over them once more, to see if there's anything useful about the tank you can learn about.

As you do so, you tell Kyoko that you haven't yet explored the core of Shell 2, but you're planning on doing so.

"Y-yeah? Hah, it sounds like it's gonna be really fun, though..." It's here that Kyoko's pain-wracked voice seems to grow a bit regretful. "Sorry...sorry for fuckin' up again, Sayaka. I...I don't really know what the hell happened, it's just..."

You swallow here, finding your throat painfully dry, before forcing yourself to keep the mission at the forefront. No. If Kyoko wants to apologize, she'll have to do it later, not now. Later, when you're back in Headquarters. Not during a mission.

...Christ, Miki Sayaka. Keep it the fuck together. You're Equerry AND Rank Leader. Fucking act like it.

"...Okay." Kyoko coughs this out, wetly. "Yeah. After everyone's safe, and everything."

Right. Now...besides Murderface acting like a fucking lunatic while she's being interrogated, did the idiot say anything about a plan? Did she explain anything to Kyoko?

"N-not...not really? I mean, besides....besides telling me that she'll be taking care of things, an' asking me to get some sleep?" Kyoko laughs at the last bit, before groaning in pain again. "Oh, yeah, there was somethin' about a high score, too..."

Is that right?

Murderface, what the fuck are you planning?

"I think she's gonna bust us out after her interrogation or somethin, I'm not sure," Kyoko continues. "But I don't think she's gone crazy or anything. I still trust Murderface. She's never let me down before."

[1/2]

>>29992107
Not that it matters too much, since going in sword swinging is the only real response- just a question of how to apply Sword A to Meguca B and what happens before that.

>>29992119

Well. Regardless of what she feels about Murderface, you tell her to be careful. You have the suspicion that your Warmaster isn't home right now, and something else is in control of her. But that in itself may be a good thing, so...yeah. Just be careful.

"I will. I'm...always c-careful. When did I ever become careless, Sayaka?"

Oh, maybe some time earlier, when she got her arm and leg shot off--

"With the exception of recent events."

...Yeah. Well. Just be careful, like you said. And if you get the item before Murderface busts Kyoko out, you'll bust them out yourself.

"Alright, alright. Jeez. We're at Strut F, I think." A moment's silence. "...Love you, Sayaka."

You feel your cheeks heat up before murmuring it back. Adding 'you idiot' at the end of it should not have been felt so awkward, or sounded so half-assed.

The connection severs itself with a beep, and look over the papers again. Trying to scrounge for any information left in its massively-redacted text.

A few moments later, you find it.

"...Replacing the Hydraulic Cutter with the Plasma Cannon was no easy task, as the machinery necessary for the latter is much more delicate and much more elaborate than what is essentially a super-powered watering hose. The energy required for a single discharge is also much higher - therefore, the pilot should allow for a generous cooldown period after every discharge, or it will overload the power generators and cause RAY to momentarily shut down, defenseless. A minimum discharge interval of five minutes would be sufficient."

So...you just have to make it fire its plasma whatever at you really quickly, and then you'll have enough time to kill it? That's...yeah, that's a pretty glaring weakness.

You crumple the papers back into a ball and toss it into the bin again, before making your leave of Strut K. With your helmet back on, no one seems to care that you're just walking around the fucking place.

You head to Shell 2 Core, then. If Kyoko's info is right, then what you're looking for should be in there.

With an entire bridge between you and the security detail-infested Shell 2 Core entrance, you stop in your tracks. Thinking about the best way to handle this.

Wait as long as possible before going all out. After that, when Sayaka goes all out, it'll draw the girls away from murderface and kyoko making it easier for them to bust out of there.

>>29992317

I will laugh my ass off if we destroy the robot, only to find that it was protecting some blueprint for some military super weapon that the 16th was working on. Or something we aren't looking for in general.

"Fine, you win, you can have the maguffin."

>>29992307
She actually may be counting on us to go berserk to distract them and make her move.

>>29992416

Unlikely. We were pushing for sneaking mission earlier. And seemed inclined to stick to it, Kyouko getting limbs shot off aside. She's probably expecting us to stick to it.

>>29992416

This is the assumption that I'm personally working on

>>29992408

>>29992416

She said she'd make her move after we've secured the objective and start going loud.

>>29992436

the way things are going, I'm relieved those were the only things you thought I meant. Either works, though, for different reasons(Magical Girl=dangerous, Metal Gear=WRECK SHIT UP)

>>29992458
Actually, we're still sneaking.

Just Eversor sneaky, not Callidus sneaky.

If you kill every fucker, they can't tell anyone else where you are.

There's no way to confront the Gear without going noisy anyway.

>>29992485
>There's no way to confront the Gear without going noisy anyway.
and there's no way to ascertain whether the target is in Shell Core 2 without confronting Metal Gear.

So, unless you're proposing that we sneak all the way to shell core 1 and search it first, there seems to be zero point in holding back.

An enemy cannot call for help if you disable his throat.

I think if Sayaka is confident that she can take down a bridge full of goons without them raising an alarm, there's no reason not to trust her judgment. I'd trust her more to do that than to play out of position and try to stealth across.

Yeah, either they or Sayaka are making a huge error in judgment in that scenario, sniper or otherwise.

You carefully unsling Blueberry Cheesecake Brownie from your shoulder and pressing it against your hip - the automatic straps flying out and cinching tight around your waist, securing the weapon in its most effective position for you to use. A glance towards the welcoming committee tells you that they haven't yet clued in on what you're about to do - something that will change very, very soon.

Your very first stride brings you to full speed the moment it makes contact with the ground - and even with the unfamiliar uniform, even with the annoying helmet, you couldn't help but grin at the all-too-heady sensation of speed.

A sensation made all the more sweeter by the fact that the speed is coming from you - not from some beast of metal and oil and smoke, or some crutch-device that would only make you vulnerable when it inevitably breaks down. It's all you - you pushing the boundaries of just how fast a Magical Girl, one trained as harshly and as sadistically as you have, could go. How fast she can move, how fast she can react.

How fast she can kill.

Blueberry Cheesecake Brownie's first blood is a soldier just about to unsling his rifle to fire at you. By the moment you whip past him, the crimson length of Blueberry Cheesecake Brownie had already sliced clean through his armor, then then flesh, then bone. You don't even spare him a glance as he collapses into two bisected halves, each one gouting dark arterial blood.

The second comes in the form of an enterprising young man looking to make short work of you with an oversized knife. At the speed you're going, his eager stab looks less of a killing move and more of a theatrical feint - an actor telegraphing a stage murder by overexagerrating his gesture, overextending.

You slice off his fingers with one small stroke, then his hand at the wrist, and then finally his head from his neck on the backswing.

You've already moved on by the time he started to fall apart. The execution itself taking less time than for you to actually blink.

The third, fourth and fifth die in similar ways - abandoning their post to attack you, panicked yells of rage and betrayal blaring from their vox-speakers. Each one ending up as disassembled biological wreckage by the time you've slipped past, the crimson of their blood adding to your blade's.

Sixth. Seventh. Eighth. Ninth. At the twelfth - the soldier's last breath bubbling in his helmet as you sliced him in two, from skull to groin - you move to cut off the Shell 2 Core from the rest of Big Shell. Two quick swipes with the quickened blade of Blueberry Cheesecake Brownie had each bridge collapsing under their weight, folding down and pointing downwards to the sea.

There. That should keep reinforcements busy for now.

With the Core all but clear, you slip into the entrance - leaving behind a red tide of blood and gore in your wake.

Proving once more - both to the world and to yourself - that you're not Rank Leader AND Equerry for nothing.

. . .

And from what you're seeing as you enter the Shell 2 Core proper - the 'core' isn't called that for nothing, either.

Nearly four times bigger than the struts you've been investigating so far, the second core of Big Shell is huge and vast - tall, too, probably big enough to qualify as a fucking hangar for commercial jets. You've read in the dossier that this core was supposed to house the filtration system, or something - but evidently it's been converted to house something much, much more important than machinery to scrub oil particulates from sea water.

And you're looking at it.

It's...well, it is kind of a tank? You guess?

In the sense that a giant fucking robot resembling a really angry chicken is a tank. A giant featherless chicken with its wings raised straight out into the air as if getting ready to fly or get into a slapfight. It's the sort of robot you'd think otaku would make, except a lot less gundam-like.

It IS pretty huge, you'll give it that. You don't even want to know how they got something like this made without attracting international attention - isn't this the sort of thing countries get into war with each other?

Despite what Kyoko told you, however, it doesn't seem to be activated. It's not moving at all, not even when you step forward.

It's standing there, slightly hunched, its great beaked head glaring down at you as if silently contemplating to crush you with one of its back-jointed legs.

It's also here that you see it - the main objective. Finally. The old lady jewelry box, in its full-on gaudy glory - placed in what looks to be a tough-looking display case. On the hangar floor, right in front of the giant chicken robot tank. Between its massive, stompy legs.

Well. If this isn't a trap, you don't know what is.

What do you do?

[]Take the main objective. It'll attack you no matter what, so you may as well.
[]Try and trigger the trap from afar. Maybe if you're quick enough, you can dart in and take the main objective while it's distracted.

There is no downside to this.

It has a 'rigidly-coded AI', which may mean that it's kind of dumb.

not really. The AI is really dumb according to the data we read. We've just got to provoke an attack or two, then and it'll shut down long enough for Sayaka to wreck it.

Avoid the main objective for now.

I'm thinking it's going to be real hard to avoid it's plasma if we just walk into it's kill zone. It's gotta be calibrated to fire at the case.

Also, it seems unlikely that's the real objective if so.
