Just a page for me to throw things which I can't finish as I am writing them but want to save until later.

RLD Chapters
Chapter Two: CATFU


 * ''Epsilon Indi System
 * ''UN colony: Second Base
 * ''Pvt. 1st class Leonard Schaeffer
 * ''En route to Garmed City Bank

"Jesus Christ," was all that Schaeffer could think as he saw the bodies or whatever remained of them getting carried off. Of the 48 men in the platoon; eight of them were wounded and four of them were dead. The driver and passenger of the lead hog, the gunner on the second and a man in the back who got unlucky enough to be in the snipers sights. Those too wounded to walk were packed into the back of the transport hog along with as many dead they could fit before driving off, most likely to the closest available hospital.

The entire company obviously had not seen much combat and they had not been prepared to fight any real resistance. As they watched the wounded be sent off; the men all slowly gathered around, pushed the destroyed warthog off the road and slowly began to try and advance up the road.

"They said they cleared the buildings..." he thought to himself as he walked; now taking point in the column. The thought was nagging him constantly; were the police with the innies? If so, was having them use sniper rifles and aiming in their direction a good idea? And in the end, how deep was the rebellion here going exactly? If the police was working with them, than god knows who else in the colony was ready to stab them in the back.
