Graduation Day

AJ's burst catches the grey squarely. You see splashes of red globule slowly floating down from the creature as a whitish plumes coming out of its suit shows it's running out of air. The thing is in really bad shape.

Mr. black, Mr. Grey, and Mrs. White will now take their shot, after which, if the Grey is still alive, it will attempt to save its own sorry skin... Your three mysterious friends shoot the Grey alien, but only manages glancing shots with their pistols, unable to penetrate its envirnoment suit.

The Grey will attempt to warn his allies, which will fail thanks to Enzo, and return fire what it perceives as the biggest thread right now, AJ, who was the one gravely wounding it. It will then also retreat back into the airlock (but cannot close it right away because he took his action to shoot). AJ is hit for 3 points of damage, but that should fail to inflict any significant damage to her combat armor...


Second round of combat!

Initiative
13 Alphia
13 Melena
12 Archer
12 Enzo
12 Richter
11 AJ
10 Mr. Black/Grey/Mrs. White
10 The Grey

Alphia and Melena are up in any order again...

The good news is the gun actually fires this time around. The bad news is that the bullet misses its target by about a foot...

Melena is up next!

That is a critical hit! though not a 1, so no loss/gain of Dread/Glory Points... Melena shoots the Grey, her bullets hitting it in the already damaged area of its environent suit (thus bypassing AR). The Grey falls to the ground, inert, in a bloody mess...

Archer looks around and there doesn't seem to be any signs that you have attracted attention. Well, at least, there are no more hostiles to be seen.

Feeling the glares of both Melena and AJ, "Mr. Black" sheepishly nods. "Y-yeah, agreed... we should proceed..."

You all step into the airlock and you start collecting samples and alien tech, and keeping an eye on your strange guests. Mr. Black continues. "Alright, we just need to hack this airlock, and we're in. By the look of how that Grey came out, it looks like it wasn't expecting us. So maybe we still have the element of surprise, but we should still be careful; we're heading straight into enemy territory."

Well, the situation is that you can always wait after you're done here to take whatever sample you need. It's not like he's going to get up and run away... But yeah, Enzo would definitely need to gather tissue and blood samples, in addition to bring back whatever equipment that thing was carrying, like its laser rifle, its tool box, its environment suit (though it is very much damaged now), and whatever that last thing on its person is... it looks like a knife handle but with no blade... very strange...

Looking at the Grey more closely, Enzo realizes it looks like a mess of stitched up flesh and skin. Probably taken from other species. The creature looks more like classic depiction of the Frankenstein monster than what you'd expect a Grey to look like. Still, it has the long emaciated body, the large bulbous head, the large almond-shaped dark eyes, and the two small slits where the nose should be (which Dominion scientists assume must be their ears), but man does it look like it went through a meat grinder, and not because of your bullets! The thing also looks male, or at the very least it seems to be agendered. There doesn't seem to be any indication of pronounced mammary glands or wide child-bearing hips... but then again, you know nothing on how those things reproduce...

As for your three strange friends, they seem far more interested into getting inside than the dead Grey outside or his equipment for that matter.
