The First Mission - (Chapter 1)

[Aaron Brand]

Aaron found a spot in the room that offered the most open vantage point and kept his eyes peeled as the squad branched out for a sweep. They may have passed the dark stranger's twisted test, but that asshole could have "forgotten" to mention some other other nasty surprises left in store. At the very least, there could still be leftover monsters in the vicinity to deal with.

---Everyone---

The room seems mostly empty.  Nothing looks as though it has been ransacked or damaged.  It's just has basic wooden furnishings, though the stain glass windows do give the place a bluish tint to the lighting throughout the building. 

Two things stand out quickly upon securing the building.  One is the very large seemingly deactivated Borg leaning up against the far wall against a closet door.  The thing is either dead, deactivated or … well … they do sleep, just not very much, so care might still be needed with it.  

The Second thing, is Both Khayman and Aaron hear something scuffling around in the Closet that the Borg is leaning up against.

[Viego]

The Borg looked heavy as hell, he remembered one of the sparing matches they had had with a full conversion borg once and the bruises after. Viego moved toward it, and then looked back at the LT. and Sarge. "Should I move it out of the way for Aaron to examine?" Once someone tells him he can he will move the Borg off to the side so Aaron can look at it, and they can get to the closet.

[Nolan Randall]

"Don't touch it until after Aaron meets sure it's not going to activate on you we'd rather not have a firefight in here right now"

"If it is indeed deactivated already, you can go ahead and forcefully dismantle it. I don't want to being used against us" 

[Marcus Brand]

Marcus walks over and keeps himself at the ready in case the Borg wakes up and causes trouble for his brother.  He looks it over while he's watching it.  Trying to pick up any details of where it's from or who made it.  As far as dismantling it, he had no doubt his brother could strip this thing down faster than a group of scavengers on an abandoned hovercar in Chi-town.

[MSgt Khayman Tamaroa]

Keeping his pistol in his grip and ready to use, he walked over and listened more carefully near the closet before saying loud enough to be heard through the door. Hold your horses, there's a big god damned borg blocking the door.

[Nolan Randall]

"Marcus, make another door."

"Khayman, you might want to tell whoever is in there to stand back" 

[Aaron Brand]

I'll take a look, but no promises. Cybernetics are a bit outside my wheelhouse. Aaron was a prodigy when it came to machines and he could stitch a person together pretty damn well, but the integration of flesh and metal was an extremely delicate and complex process, one that he had neither the time nor inclination to study in-depth before. It was an interesting subject to be sure, but there was also something a bit...unsettling about the whole discipline, especially when it came to full-conversion cybernetics. Let me run a diagnostic on our Bot Buddy before you start making a lot of noise around it.

Aaron walked up to the hulking metal brute and gave the cyborg a once over. Hard to believe there was anything human left inside there. Going under the hood. He placed a hand on the cyborg's chassis and closed his eyes, willing his mind to flow through his arm and into the Borg's systems.

---Aaron---

Aaron can tell almost immediately that it was put in sleep mode.  Other than that, everything seems perfectly fine.  No damage what-so-ever.  The thing was apparently male, that was one of the few biological parts it had left. But that was about all he could tell other than it was in fact a Coalition Combat Borg.  He's confident he could wake it up.

[Marcus Brand]

Marcus nodded to the Lt. "Yes sir." 

When his brother looked over the Borg and advised against making a ton of noise, he paused. "No problem. Let me know when I can free the other one."
