The 2nd mission

The kill-team move swiftly and prudently to the crater. The region is quite vast so it take a bit of time to reach.

You spread out to investigate as you cross it. As you pass the middle point, you feel a a slight vibration in ground below your feet. You stop an instant to check your senses and you feel another one, slightly stronger.

What do you do?

"Back away, brothers" goes Bannus in a rare case of actually talking as he takes a few steps back from what he feels is most likely bad news. "Brother Guthroth, hand me the Auspex."

Lucian backs away from whatever spooked Bannus. His bolter swings into a ready position.

Cloten readies his jump pack and scans the lip of the crater watching for something that may flank them.

A few tense seconds passes as Brother Bannus deftly manipulate the auspex and analyse to incoming data. A faint earthquake continue all over the crater as he realize what is happening : A mass of pressurized digestive-like fluid is moving toward the surface from underground.

"Digestive acid, move away!" Bannus shouts out to the rest of the Kill-Team as he tries to do the same.

The shaking keeps amplifying as you move toward the edge of the crater. Lines of pressurized gas start escaping the ground as more cracks start to form.What do you do?

Guts runs as fast as he can, clearing the wall with his astarte grapnel...

Mykhaal follows Guts, running as fast as him, jumping the last meters to try and get higher before climbing...

Cloten stays behind pushing the others. With his jump pack, he'll make it easy.

Lucian runs hard and attempts the climb at the end.

Bannus follows the rest of the Kill Team, hoping his success has bought enough time for the team to make it out of the crater.

The kill-team runs swiftly toward the edge of the crater with only Brother Lucian trailing a few seconds behind.
Just as most of team climb over to safety, the tremors reach their peak and acidic geysers spews for. One opens directly under Lucian as he start climbing making him loose is grip as he instinctively try to dodge the unholy bile.

Mikhaal! Give me a hand !! Guts rewinds his grapnel gun with his powered winch and fires on Lucian's armor, helping him back with Mykhaal's help...

Bannus kneels next to Ragnar, offering an outstretched hand to Lucian while also trying to use his servo-arm for assistance, even if it means he'll have to pick his Battle Brother up with it and carry him to safety.

Cloten knows his jump pack won't allow him to carry another space marine, but he can give a boost. He follows the others as Lucian lags behind, grabs a handful of armor and tries to at least lighten the load so the squad leader can climb to the outstretched hand.

Lucian attempts to dodge the splurting acid and scramble up the cliff.
