Auspex heard voices, a rumble underneath his boot soles, but nothing more. His men acknowledged them too. Despite the noise, they quieted, crouched low against the shadows, purposely stretching and crawling their bodies to match the volume. They moved like dring cement. They resounded like deafness. Stalking towards the intended target, the Troopers scanned unfamiliar shadows before slowing in deilberate stops.
The Commander found an alcove created by furrows in the walls they took refuge in. And inside, a small area cloaked in further darkness, perfect for him. He slipped past his Troopers and prepared his rifle. From this vantage point, he could see Pyroman and Shadow and the unfamiliar Navi pounding towards them.
"Engagement?" Whispered a Trooper.
'We hold this position and wait.'
"Patience?"
'A patience is rewarded to those who favor in being last. Opportunity is rewarded to those who beat the losers.' Auspex scratched his head, wondering where the maxism came from. 'Be Patient for an Opportunity.'
