"Take that body back to the van! Now! Go!" The larger COEM operative barked as she charged her weapon, dropping to one knee and unleashing a barrage of hot lead across the blocked tunnel. The other operatives in the rookie's team were rushing to safe positions, firing wildly on the incoming emergency vehicles, doing everything they could to slow them down. The beleaguered security forces returned fire -- mostly useless, except for the COEM operative they'd hit in the chest. She went down like a wet sandbag. No time to check her status. It was the rookie's job to drag her out.

The rookie grumbled, heaving the twitching legs up and struggling to pull her away from whatever amounted to the frontlines in this guerrilla attack. The COEM's disguised van wasn't far from their current position, but every step the rookie took, she felt more and more exposed. Don't worry about getting shot. Or arrested. Or captured by Taskforce Lioness. Don't even think about any of that! The rookie lectured herself. It wasn't working. She was verging on full-on panic mode. The only thing keeping her from totally freaking out was the sure knowledge that the other COEM troopers would kill her immediately if she tried to flee the scene.

Which didn't matter for long. The blue-haired COEM yipped, dashing past the rookie. "Leave her! We're exfiltrating now!"

The Rookie blinked. "Wha-?"

Another blonde COEM sprinted past. "Just run, y'all!" She warbled, hopping into the van's driver's seat. The Rookie didn't ask questions, she just dropped the legs she was once carrying, and scampered toward the van, leaving her MP5 in behind. That would so be coming out of her next paycheck.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A new cameo character! The Rookie is a character I made as part of a request -- and she's totally got some special henchwoman energy. Like, of course, we'll see another phase in her COEM journey later!! For now, I'm happy to be one step closer to NOT being totally behind for Zakoctober 2023.
