John/Jose: The two made their way to the top of the hill shrubs kept them obscured from view but they had a pefect sight of the town, Out-town was small made more of wood and stone than of starship hulls though in places there was the gleam of a sheet metal roof they had gotten from some past shipment. A wall ringed the twon made in the old style of a pioneer fort and there was a gate made of reenforced wood, it was wide open. There was no movement in the town now would be a good time to report back a town that seemed deserted was an odd sign.
Main Group: Basil snickered at Victor's comments he didn;t care much for Cory and her abrasive remarks. "If she gives our position away, she'll be the first one shot if the LT doesen't do it first." He muttered to Victor. Dalton who was at the head glanced at Cory, "What're you doing up here?" He asked not hostile but curious.

John used his rifle scope to survey the town. He could find no trace of anyone. The place looked like a ghost town. What made it seem even more odd was the gate standing wide open and just inviting trouble in. Looking over at Jose John said, "I'm not sure why but I can see anyone left in the town. The LT needs to know about this so he knows what he is walking in to. You can move faster than this old man. Run ahead and warn them. I'll be right behind you Jose."

"Leaving you behind in a possibly enemy controlled territory? No seas pendejo, it's not gonna happen." He whispered back, he was right though, they did have to move fast. He began leading the way back.

He began leading the way back. "I appreciate the sentiment bud but if I start falling behind you have to keep going. The rest of the group need the warning before they walk into a possible trap." "Just do your best to keep up then old man." John said lightheartedly. Sure, he was joking, but he really was hoping he would keep up though. Jose was a soldier, a well trained one with some experience. While that may be true, he was also a kid with dreams of a baseball career. He didn't want those dreams replaced by nightmares of his comrades dying. He figured that telling his fellow soldiers the information was more important than making sure one guy made it out safe. That decided, he regretfully began to jog as fast as possible, while still making sure he wouldn't get tired. He was younger than John, and had been the star right field in the city's baseball league since he was allowed to join, speed was definitely a strong suit for the youngster. He very likely left John far behind to fend for himself.

John/Jose: As Jose sprinted leaving John to struggle to keep up he could tell he was getting closer because he could hear a familar voice "Taking charge. That a problem with you arseface?" They definitely would be giving their position away if there were enemies around. Or at least one person was.
Main group: Basil shook his head at Cory, Jessica was meanwhile scanning the trees nervously. Dalton glared at Cory, "You're not in charge the Lt. is and you're not pointman either that's my job." He was about to say more when he suddenly turned and raised his fist up singaling a stop to the column. "Someones coming!" He shouted going prone and bringing his shotgun up, the others did like wise.

"I heard that" Wall grunts at Basil, though he didn't want to start anything. He takes a few more steps when he sees what happens up front. Vic kneels down, rifle up. He saw Dalton get very eager with where he was pointing his shotgun. "I don't see anything" Victor grunts prematurely as his eyes dart in the direction of where their pointman was facing.

Jose tried to find cover before checking what he had heard. He was not expecting to be caught... He tried to calculate how close he was to the group. It might be worth it to try to escape any fights and just get there in time to report the information.

Jose would find that the only people in the area was his own fellow militiamen it was them that had been making the noise, unfortunately they had heard his approach and were all now in prone positions thinking he was an enemy, things could go wrong real fast if he didn't do something to calm down a bunch of halftrained trigger happy colonists.
Basil felt himself quivering though he couldn't tell why was it fear? Nerves? Excitement?

Jose proceeded to drop his gun and anything else he had and toss it over, before saying that he was not an enemy as quietly as possible.

John continued on his path. He wasnt far behind Jose but he was taking his time to remain quiet and mostly undetected. He couldn't shake the uneasy feeling in his gut that something wasn't right. For the last 20 minutes he felt as if something was now watching him. As he slowly moved him remained cautious. Every so often he would check his surroundings with his rifle scope. He was finally catching up with the others cause he could hear them talking. Then they all went silent. John stopped a ways back because he could see Jose standing with his hands up but could see no one else in the dense forest.

Dalton quickly recognized his counterpart. "Jose! Why didn't you identify yourself sooner? You could have got shot." He said.
There was a loud order of "STAND DOWN!" which everyne echoed as the stood up and shouldered their weapons, Lt. Ulrich strode over to Jose, "Report." He ordered then paused, "Where's John?"
From his position John could hear the stand down order cluing him that things were seemingly alright but tha creeping feeling that something wan't right would stay with him, whatever was making his skin crawl had to be related to the seemingly abandoned town.

"Good to see you guys again. Im not sure why but we didnt see a soul in or around the town. Its like they dropped everything and left." Wiping sweat from his brow, John hung his gun over his shoulder and began rubbing his elbow. His joints weren't what they used to be.

"Shit man, first call in weeks and it almost ends in friendly fire" he grunts before motioning to John. "Glad no space-tiger ate ya" he muses before lowering his weapon, now that the coast was clear.
