"Ruthless, did you see that?" Myrina toggled her helmet optic to get a closer view on the facility. "Thought I something behind that storehouse." It was about the right size to protect a GEAR, tall and wide enough to fully obscure its frame. It was difficult to get an accurate image, even with the zoom. Dust hazed through the air, and heat ripples danced at the far end of the horizon. Switching her vision to thermal, Myrina tried to get a clearer look - and then she saw it. 

"Contact!" She saw the GEAR silhouetted through the building's windows, moving on the other side. Just a shoulder and a partial head, but it was enough for her to confirm it. "Colonel Blade, Myrina here. We've got eyes on an unknown GEAR at the irrigation facility. I count one but there may be-" 

PAMPAMPAMPAM! Myrina thrust the belly of her machine down against the canyon slope, as a staccato of gunfire erupted nearby. It hadn't come from the building - [i]where the hell?[/i] "Taking fire!" She grimaced over the radio. Popping briefly out of cover, she let off a salvo in return, not entirely sure where the shots had come from, or if they were directed at team two, even. As she pulled the trigger, the irrigation fields suddenly burst with activity. The GEAR behind the storehouse had shifted around the corner, scanning in Myrina's direction. She counted at least two others behind water tanks in the field, bustling at her return fire.

"I count three GEARs," she huffed. "Presumed hostile!" Another barrage scraped the canyon formation which provided Myrina cover, kicking up rock and dust over her machine. "Ruthless! Put some fire on them!" With suppressing fire keeping them down momentarily, Myrina edged out from the corner of her cover, getting her autocannon barrel clear. She tapped the trigger three times, spitting 40 mm armor-piercing shells down into the facility. The slammed through one of the water tanks, which gushed as it contorted under the impact. From behind, a GEAR slumped to the ground, from which it made no effort to push itself back to its feet.

"One down, crew kill," Myrica announced.
