Auspex watched his Troopers wade into the industrial center. One dorned a gadget attatched to his visor, the device used to detect data fragments, scanned the open derelicts. Out-dated machinery hulled in exposed hangars, expansive enough to fit all thirty-five men. Someone identified an oxidizing tiller. Built into one end of the space, a large portal perforated the worn metal, pulsing weak energy.
"Confirmed ip, but location seems irregular." McGavin spoke.
'This is the domain entrance.' Auspex lost his words, scanning the scenery. 'The Net has a funny way of placing things.'
"Another data trail, foreign, appears at portal threshold and dissapears inside. Commonality to Cybeast and/or the Navi"
'Thought I smelled stupid.'
McGavin approached Auspex. "Engagement?"
'I'll take two squads in. The important thing is to keep this entrance heavily fortified. Only the Domain Navi can link out, so anything that's foreign has to walk through here again. McGavin, I hold you responsible for building it--use whatever weapons you need.' Auspex removed the heavy weapons from two squads. 'I intend on not letting stupid know we're here already. I'll sneak in, pick off Pyromutt, and pull him out.'
"Yes sir. Setting up defensive ace. Crossfire, heavy mg42's and long barrels."
'Good. I'm going in.' Auspex paced towards the portal, fourteen men following.
