Siege on the North Pole

Of course, the task entrusted to our beloved heroes of the Meatcrew won't be easily accomplished. They're being watched. Small, robotic Arctic foxes, a product of Macrohard, studies the crew as they come through the portal. They watch the set up; they see them go into the realm of the Holiday Spirit, and leave in their flying cars to spread joy in the world. The portal is left open--this is their chance to strike.

This joy, this happiness, this plan? Unacceptable. These creatures are the surveillance for Macrohard. The crew's plan is out, and this corporation is not pleased. The crew's efforts are threatening Macrohard's dominance of the season, but the most effective tactic isn't fighting the crew--oh no. What they'll do instead is go after the Holiday Spirit itself. There is no other option: the threat must be eliminated, once and for all.

Luckily, Macrohard happens to have access to the most technologically advanced weaponry available. The most dangerous mercenaries are on their payroll. Troops of mecha nutcrackers, cybernetic polar bears, and candy cane-wielding arctic ninjas are on route to the North Pole to finish up the job.

[OOC: These are small teams, so try to keep Infiltration Team in one thread, and try to do a LOT of group threads in the others.]

Booth felt a little outgunned at times because he wasn't used to shooting robots. He was rather relieved that some of the people around him had more useful powers and things to fight with.

"I would say "what the hell?"" he said when the candy cane came "But it's hard to be surprised anymore." He could shoot it though, so he tried to help the two it was heading for, using the dracon gun. It was modified, but maybe he could deflect a few pieces at least.

Giant Candy Cane!

Matt registered it too seconds before he was smashed out of the way by Aeneas. It was going to hit, so he had to do something.

Mustering up as much power as possible, he slammed his hands down on the ground, upheaving the earth in order to catch it, and praying to God that he caught it in time. His leg throbbed from the impact and he stuggled to his hands and feet, staring up at the blade.

"Will's going to kill me if that thing impacts," he realized.

'Vadum gave a battlecry as he leapt aside the Megacrackers giant weapon, rolling to his feet in one motion before charging in towards the large monstrosity of a nutcracker.

Sprinting forward even as the earth began to rise, the Sangheili leaping up the slop of that rising earth using it as something of a catapult, springing high from it and toward the huge nutcracker's down swinging arm.

Impacting heavily 'Vadum scrabbled for a grip, driving his blade into the side of the arm even as his free hand found a grip. The Sangheili using all of his strength as he dragged and swung himself further up the arm with both hand and blade, attempting to reach the monstrosities head.

"I really feel inferior around all of you" Booth commented. He was beginning to wish he had some kind of magical powers or something. But another part of him knew that there were things just as important-courage, integrity, honor...

He just wished he could be more effective in this fight somehow. His bullets were slowing the 'bots, but metal isn't something you can penetrate well unless it's very thin.
