... Jack stumbled over, tumbling out of the rear end of a dropship. Whuddafug? The last thing he remembered was a gang of lizards charging his room and his suit locking up on him. He was a bit confused as to the rest. Standing up, he turned and picked up a spare sugar sitting on the rack. Turning back to the battlefield, Jack saw the cloud of debris that marked where the ammo dump had been. Luckily they had just begun, so it was only a short sprint from where the spawn points were.
Jack came to the edge of the rubble, looking over the collapsed buildings uncertainly. He was pretty sure Kai had been in this one... He accessed the still-open teammate com link between the two of them. "Kai, you okay? I think I got killed, the suit locked up on me or something and I lost control of it. Real weird. Where are you?" His HUD was telling him that Kai was somewhere just ahead of him, but all that was there was the ruins of a collapsed building. The com was still open, so Kai was probably still alive. It was a bit difficult for Jack to think in less stringent terms of alive and dead. It made his head spin a bit.

Somewhat muffled by white noise, static, and the obvious blackage of the signal by rubble, Kai repied "I think.... I'm Alive.... It's hard.... To.. to... Hard to breathe... Also... WHO THE HELL TURNED OFF THE SAFETIES!" He managed to roar, before going into a fit of wheezing as he tried to get air to enter his lungs. with the safeties turned off, if they didn't get Kai out soon, the pressure the simulator was exerting on him would kill him for real.

"Huh?" Jack muttered into the com, "Whaddaya mean? The safety protocols should be fine. I just respawned...." Hearing Kai struggling for breath, he looked out at the cloud of dust that marked where he was trapped. "Hang on Kai, I'm on my way." he said, jumping into the combat zone and sprinting towards the collapsed building Kai was under.

What Jack couldn't know was that his program only had the safeties on for Weapons damge, environmental dangers, such as a building falling on top of you, had been turned off. So, Kai was under the "rubble", Getting squished to death. He tried moving a little, shifting so he was closer to the nearest source of light, but that only caused more of the rubble to collapse. A puff of soot washed into the air as the pile became shorter.

Jack was quickly to the site of the... accident. Looking around the hazy wreckage, he spotted a patch of movement. Running over to it, he flung his empowered arms into the ground, hauling up several feet of debris and flinging it aside. "Kai!" he shouted down into the wreckage.

"Down here Dingbat!" Kai managed to wheeze, sticking an arm into the open space cause By Jack's digging. Suddenly, an artillery shell landed nearby, disentegrating a decent portion of the rock, and thankfully making wuite a bit of it slide away from the Captain. Able to breathe easier now, the green-armored man began clawing his way toward his friend, who suddenly came under fire by a few Drathonians.

"Well, $#!t." Jack grumbled, firing wildly in the direction the enemy fire was coming from with one hand while he grabbed Kai's exposed arm with the other. With a tremendous heave, he pulled the man out of the wreckage. Getting a better look at his surroundings, he realized that the fairly flat terrain of the collapsed building wasn't exactly the best place to be. "Come on!" he half-shouted to Kai, keeping a hold on his arm as he pulled him to his feet and started running for cover.

Suddenly able to breathe, Kai felt much better. As he was pulled up to his feet again, the captain was suprised to note he managed to keep a grip on the modified Sugar that the suit used. He looked around, and the suit gave him warning of the incoming fire from a nearby building. As he ran, kai aimed toward the point of fire, the suit compensating for the movement the whole time, and fired several shots. A small tine confirmed hits, and two or three of the lines of tracers stopped flying at them. That was about when the luck ran out. a whistling sound was heard above, and Jack's and Kai's suits both beeped warning of incoming heavy munitions. A split second later, the shell slammed into the ground behind the two soldiers, sending them flying into the wall Jack had hoped to use as a cover. Kai's suit noted that it had been compromised, and the seals had broken, but it was mostly intact, if not very mobile. Jack's had less damage, the faceplate had smahed, throwing shrapnel into the Marine's face, as well as one arm being dislocated from the suit.

{{Lesse.. Jack's face wil FEEL like it's full of glass, and the simulator will have dislocated his arm for real, since they are environmental effects rather than direct weapon damage. Kai has the wind knocked out of him, and is lightheaded from lack of oxygen, he'll probably black out soon.}}
