Sometime previously...Spook sat by the dying fire during her watch, eyes glancing around the treeline every couple of minutes in a bid to keep up her duty. She was fully awake and probably wouldn't fall asleep again after she got Matt and Rig up to cover the last couple hours of the watch, but that was fine, an extra set of eyes never hurt to have. She got up and started some exercises, hoping to tire herself out enough to get back to bed when the time came.
Now...Spook overlooked the crater on her Duvari, lenses of her mask reflecting the light from the pillar in the center of it. This wasn't something even remotely natural, either the Other or some high-grade technology was enabling this. Her fists gripped the reigns hard as she waited, silently hoping that Isis and Nate could find a clear path so the rest of the squad could move in and figure out what was causing the event they were there to investigate. She looked over to Matt for a second, deciding that she had mulled over his questions for long enough.
"I'm never in one place for too long, always on the move... that's why I'm a Ranger, I don't like sitting still and letting life go by. We've got a world to take back and I'm not gonna sit on my ass and watch someone else do it. She stopped for a second, getting ready to address the second inquiry.
"Knives are too short out here, won't take down anything that isn't humanoid." She answered, before Jake gave the go ahead to move in. She and her Duvari took off, calmly moving down the path Isis and Nate had taken, disguised only by the sounds around them and the edge of the crater. Upon her arrival to the rendezvous point, she slowed down and dismounted, using some of the inertia from their walk to propel herself to a position beside Nate. She crouched down, looking down at the city and the immense number of Wild Ones in it. She gulped visibly.
"Last time I saw this many of them..." She paused for a long moment, seeming to reflect internally as she stared down at the sheer number of enemies.
"...I don't like this..." She muttered, standing up before she started pacing behind the group, seemingly worried. About what was anyone's guess, though. The enigma looked up to Jake after a few passes, blank expression of the mask giving no hints.
"What do we do? We can't take a force this big head on."
