Part 425: Trial by Fire - Turn 16
Trial By Fire: Tactical Update 16Coming, Rayford mumbled, kicking his Coyote up to full speed. The machine lurched upright as its gyros realigned themselves. His head throbbedprobably a lingering concussion from the cockpit hits hed taken earlierand when his targeting computer chimed a lock on the Woodsmans left arm he squeezed the trigger instinctively. His laser missed low, but his Streak SRMs found the mark, chipping armor from the heavy `Mechs broad, boxy shoulders.
Torsos breached, Arianna reported as Rayfords vision finally started to clear. Status check?
Im swiss cheese, Lucaino added a moment later.
Could be worse, Shoji grunted.
Its not like I need my left side anyway, Rayfords voice was raw, he wouldve killed for something to drinkand a few moments respite in which to do so. Not since they shot off my PPC. The rest isnt in bad shapeI think Im doing worse.
Keep it together, Arianna coached. This is a team effort. None of us is winning this alone.
