*Immediately sprints toward the soldiers*

<Snipped quote by Meta>

Target refuses to comply, open fire!

*Doing so, a hail of crimson lasers is unleashed upon you from multiple directions*

<Snipped quote by Caldizar>

*Each beam blows a hole through my body with ease, which is as quickly filled with the same chromatic light, restoring my flesh*

<Snipped quote by Meta>

*The soldiers form a defensive line and continue laying down suppressing fire*

Target has regenerative capabilities! Radio command and tell them to deploy heavy ordinance!

<Snipped quote by Caldizar>

*Throws myself into the line of soldiers, my touch healing any injuries they may have sustained*

<Snipped quote by Meta>

*The one you attempted to heal tries to restrain you as the firing ceases momentarily, two more rushing in from either side to help while a third runs in, the butt of their gun raised to strike you across the back of your skull*

<Snipped quote by Caldizar>

Haven’t you guys ever heard the phrase “help me help you?”
*Taps one on the shoulder, and the other on his left ankle, with the same healing effect before taking off*

<Snipped quote by Meta>

*The soldier attempting to grab you falls back as you do so, the others raising their rifles and opening fire once more*

The target is fleeing the area! Command please advise!

*There is a pause from one of the heavily armored humanoids as they seem to communicate with someone over a long-range radio built into their helmet. After a moment or two, however, the soldier quickly waves to the other troops gathered around, silencing their onslaught*

Hold your fire! Command says we're to pull back for now! Looks like we're being reassigned to a collection detail.

*The soldier's lifeless visage peers up at you coldly*

This isn't over.

*With that the soldiers begin to withdraw as several ships, bulky atmospheric cleaners by the looks of things, loom overhead*

<Snipped quote by Caldizar>

*My blood splatters across the rocks behind me, but is consumed by and disappears in the light*
You’re welcome!

<Snipped quote by Meta>

*The cleaners begin their work and the fields are silent once again, yet something sinister lurks nonetheless*

<Snipped quote by Revolutionary>

I don’t have any strength remaining. It’s all I can do to contain it.

<Snipped quote by Source>

Unless you can find a way to get to him now, we have to hit the gem and hope it does something.

<Snipped quote by Revolutionary>

Do you have the firepower to spare? I can keep it stable.

<Snipped quote by Source>

We were building up to hit Nemid with something big. We've got lots of firepower to spare.

*Cracks a small smile*
Paperwork is the least of my worries.
