Only used for overflow traffic during the height of the colonies growth and expansion. This spaceport has the cast-off equipment from the primary station only. Even while the colony was fully functioning this was used as little more than a storage and hangar facility. The most important function this place had was that private citizens were able to house their personal craft here. The SRC still took the time to activate all automated security before they left, something they had never before bothered to do. They new desperation would drive people to seek any avenue to get off-world and they made sure to plug every possible exist they could think of, to keep the infection contained.

Zeke

A Freight elevator whirrs to life and a hatch opens as two of the primary spaceport's Security Drones rise to the top of a long shaft. They target a sentry gun down the hall, but it doesn't even track them. They roll down halls and through doors until they reach their destination. They open the door to the main server room and insert the small data storage device into the mainframe. The security system powers down but the docking clamps on what space faring vessels remain persist. Most others are outright destroyed.

The elevator moves back down the long shaft and moments later Zeke rises from the depths accompanied by two of the more tactically inclined eggheads from Weap-R&D. They move quickly toward the control tower for the main hangar hanging high above the center of the hangar floor. As they ride the elevator up one of the others looks at the other two men in the elevator and says "Nice weather, eh?"

Zeke

Mannus had sent over the info on the state of the bio-labs and the data on how well the auto-guns in the police station cleared out the infested. "Hmmm..." He turned to one of his assistants. "Do we have another VTOL up and running yet?"

"No, Dr. Walker. Most are locked down or gutted. There's one that they missed because it was in the middle of an overhaul. It's engines were dropped and stripped. Steiger says he'll be able to put it back together and the lifters will be able to help."

"Tell Steiger to hurry up with that. I want to be able to get this area locked down and start setting up in the PD ASAP..."

"Yes sir." The assistant begins tapping on his data tablet.

"Do we have a manned kill team to spare?" Zeke looked out from the tower through one of the windows at a group of drones roving through the area just south of the position. They had been gunning down fungal carriers since they punched through to the main tower complex. Now just under a hundred scientists were occupying a control tower and small kill teams of drones occasionally lead by one of their group that has military training equipped with some of the pilfered power armor and weapons.

"Doctors Lobb and MacManus are just finishing up with the last hangar. They just need to refit."

"Good. When they get back send them to the Biolabs with Kenny to secure them and retrieve the survivors that are there." Zeke puts his helmet back on and heads back down stairs to regroup with his kill-team. He wasn't the one with the most amount of training, but he had enough to kill some walking dead and he wasn't about to ask his friends to do something he wouldn't. Plus, his arm needed more field-testing.

Kenny & Zeke

As Kenny brought the V-TOL into the main hangar Zeke just finishes turning the last of the things in the his sector to ash. Zeke meets Kenny as she gets out of the craft. The helmets optics track down to him

"You're a bit too good at that Doc..."

Zeke hits an invisible button and his visor goes transparent. "It helps to think of them as they are: No longer human... How did things go?"

Kenny walks over to the craft's side door. "Fine until a little bird showed up."

"What do you mean little bird?" Zeke asked with a cocked eye-brow.

"Noah I think his name was. I put Ol' Eustace on auto and bird-boy thought it was a good idea to have a dance-off with him. Broke his leg real good. Wasn't in the back of the V-TOL when I lifted off. must've crawled out." Kenny shrugged.

Zeke pinched the bridge of his nose. She named the suit Eustace? Zeke cleared the landing pad just as the V-TOL's engines whined and it pushed it's now massive weight off the landing pad and airborne toward the biolabs with it's two squads of drones and the two scientists. As Zeke regroups with his drones a familiar monotone voice comes into his ear.

"Ezekiel, Maine is at the Biolabs. Should I recall Kenny?"

Zeke pauses. "No. Warn her and spook Maine. How are the lab security systems?"

"Majority off-line. I have access to the cameras and the intercoms."

Zeke scowls. "Do what you can. If that woman is who I think she is I would very much like to deprive Maine of her..."

Zeke

Sitting in the break room of the control tower, Zeke contemplates the courses of actions he has...

"Did you try shooting the door?"

Zeke turns to look at the young research assistant. "This isn't Metroid!?!"

The assistant pauses a moment, then says "What's Metroid?"

Zeke pinches the bridge of his nose. "Yes, I did try shooting the door."

"Did you look around for switch?"

"Yes."

"Check the computer for a password?"

"Yes."

"Did you look for a keycard?"

"Ye-" He looks away from the assistant and back at the monitor. He realized that he saw a swipe card in a locker that he couldn't carry a while back because he didn't have enough room in his inventory for. He groans and backtracks four sections to the locker room where he saw the card.

With the swipe card in hand he returns to the locked door and opens it. Beyond a massive plant monster looms, it's great tendrils and Venus Fly-trap like head menacing. The battle is tough but he thinks he can win. Just a bit more! The creature attempts a last ditch effort of flailing!

"Damnit."

"You should have rolled."

Zeke offers the game-controller to the assistant. "I have to go back to work, you want a go?"

"Sure!"

Zeke leaves the assistant in the break room and heads out to the hangar to check up on clearing and repair operations.

Zeke

"Steiger, How's it going with the V-TOL?"

A salt-and-pepper haired man with a full beard rolls out from under an engine block. "It goes pretty well Zeke. I got one engine on and running and the other one seems to be good to go. Give me an hour and we will have two working V-TOLs."

"Good, good."

"Any news on that Bounty Hunter?"

"Mannus says the situation got worse over there and they are relocating to the V-TOL. I should know soon if they got out."

It had been two weeks since that shuttle was shot down by the orbital guns, infected were as dangerous as ever and the survivors still were huddled in small groups. But, something had changed the SRC scientist in charge f weapons labs had revolted and was gathering all the survivors he cold. 'Strength in numbers' as they say. He ha used what was left of the colony's old PA system to ask everyone to come to the secondary spaceport. "If we all work together it will be simpler and we will stand a better chance of survival." /if you hear this message try to get to the spaceport, if you are willing to work you will find safety if you want trouble you will find there are more dangerous things than the planet's indigenous life or the infected.

Kenny & Zeke

Kenny had lost Dr. Callaway, but that wasn't much of an issue. He knew the Military didn't have her and that was enough for him. In the two weeks that have passed since the Biolabs the Secondary Space port has been completely locked down and a few survivors have been coming in. They have quarantine cells for new arrivals and so far only a few incidents involving the admittance process. Zeke was in his office looking over reports. Running a pseudo-military organization and maintaining the order over a small civilian populace was harder than he had expected.

"Kenny, I want you to go with the first team to the PD and help secure the upper floors. Mannus informs me that they are mostly clear save some of the areas that don't have autoguns. It shouldn't be too hard." He pauses to sip some coffee. "And stop by and see Lobb. He has something for you."

Kenny was moving through the civilian housing they had set up in one of the hangars. She had just broke up a fight when Zeke pinged her.

"Oh-boy. Presents." The sarcasm was almost painful. "Ok. I'll go pulp some freaks. I was getting bored scaring these hivers anyway."

Kenny gets to Lobb's lab and finds him in a corner with MacManus fiddling with something. "Zeke said you had something for me?"

Lobb looks up at her. "AH! Yes!" He hurries over to a table with a few crates around it. He opens one and takes out a soda-can-sized cylinder. "They are crude, but they should work in your weapon." He says, pointing to the cannon Kenny brought with her which was leaning against a wall.

Kenny almost sqees. "Yeehaw! Thanks guys! How many?"

Lobb smiles. "1000 rounds. It took a while but after we fabed the press components it didn't take too long to get them made."

She picks up her canister gun and starts loading her spare clips. "I'm sorry baby. Did you miss mama?"

Lobb chuckles and MacManus rolls his eyes.

After that the landing pad workers were treated to an odd display of a ton of power suit skipping to the landing pad.

Zeke

Zeke was speaking with the leader of the civilians now living in one of the hangars addressing some of their concerns when his earpiece crackles and a single word is heard.

"Foothold."

Zeke excuses himself from the room and finds one of his aides. "Send word to the pad that the second V-TOL is cleared to go to the PD."

Maine walked into the port. Marines following up right behind him. Growling lightly. "Perimeter now." Titan translated. Looking at the now fortified port. Walking up to the door he knocked. He didn't want to give in, but his job was the people first, pride last. He kept knocking then turned around. The marines open fired on a horde of zombies skulking towards there position. Quickly he fired at the zombies. Waving for them to set up till the doors opened.

Zeke

The gunfire from the gate draws the attention of the guard watching the cameras. A few key-strokes later and the gate opens revealing a cadre of the gun drones. They weave through the marines, picking targets and pulsing their lasers. Inside the gate is a maze of chain-link fence with pens.It looks less like the entrance to a space port and more like a cattle drive. In one section of the pens there is a small family being attended by someone in a hazmat suit.

A voice on an intercom calls "What the heck're you guys waitin' for? Get in here!"

There is a familiar figure in light powered armor by the exit to the maze.

Maine signaled. His men nodded and moved back. Entering the maze with James last. They ran over to the man in power armor. Titan scanned the suit. "Maine... it's Zeke. Eighty percent match." Maine nodded at the comment. Looking at the figure. Growling lightly at him. "We heard the message. After a long militarily debate we found it wise to focus out of her." Maine nodded, remaining at attention. Looking at the man. "We are offering the military to help the people."

Zeke

The orange vizor on Zeke's armor goes transparent. He was genuinely not expecting this. "This is unexpected, but not unwelcome..." He holds out his hand to shake Maine's. "We have this area pretty well in hand. The space port was already walled. I took the drones because we, for the most part, don't have any training... No hard feelings, huh?"

Maine shrugged at his comment. "It was a bad time to do it... but people are safe." Titan stated. Maine looked to his men. They nodded and went to work setting up a small barracks for themselves by the door. He looked to Zeke, hissing a bit. "It's getting worse. The virus feeds off of anything living. The Dreadnoughts are breaking down and we are having trouble finding Mr. Nelson." Titan translated. James sighed and tucked his helmet under his arm. "We know he's alive. We just don't know where though."
