JJ waited but no questions came. She placed the bullhorn to her mouth area once again. " The deck crew has your ride prepared with the signal buoys so mount up." She nodded toward the SFs "You men want to take point on this one? I'm good with following your lead. If not, fall in." she wasn't all that eager to go head to head with them but damnit she was the one the Admiral put in this position so it was hers to take control of. The Pilots hurried to their various Vipers placing their helmets on and pulling on their flight gloves. Fastening that final snap that secured them for warmth. JJ stepped down off the make shift podium, waiting to see what the SFs did. Turning to Frost, Gabe had the SFs go to the Vipers while he noticed his Viper as carrying the stealth pod for the buoy; "You're in charge, sir," slipping on his helmet. Rushing to the Viper, he noticed that the canopy raised up from the Viper as he felt the Titan jump with the automated PA coming up; ' Titan is in position...cleared for launch and jump Captain Frost. ' The voice was soothing as he went through the pre-launch list while Vipers were being loaded into the tubes but he had to be sent to a platform due to the extra load.

Frost nodded "See you out there, Grif" she climbed aboard the new Viper and after getting buckled up and set to go she gave the thumbs up and launched heading for the preset coordinates. "Titan Vipers go to your assigned coordinates and deploy buoys. Return back to the Ship if no sight of the Cylons or Dradis contacts. Frost out"

Captain Frost appeared on Dradis. As she approached the Titan she keyed her Mic "Frost, requesting clearance to land". "Cleared to land," keying the comm while Tom and the other officers prepared for the jump home. Using the comms array that the pilots had established, they used it as an echo location to monitor the Vipers and Frigates retreat. "Ten Four Titan" she keyed the mic and answered the CIC then headed in. Bringing in her bird she lightly set it down on the Hangar Deck and the crew pushed it to the side. Once locked down, JJ opened the hatch and climbed down the ladder. She had doubts about this mission. A lot of doubts. Why were the SFs sent out? Why was that one guy flying something very heavy? Why? JJ shook her head and strode across the Hangar Deck with her helmet under her arm. She had a lot of questions.

Landing in the deck, the Mark Xs didn't slide down the deck but made precise landings as Gabe pulled off his helmet to set it on the dash while the deck hands cleared the ordinances in the ship. Taking a second to review his tactical pad, he could hear the Admiral's message as he drew his weapon on the Marines in the hangar; "Drop'em or me and my kind will make sure of it."

Sitting on his Viper, James took a deep breath for he could feel a change as he toggled with his safety switch but knew flying back out was going to be impossible. The music played and he quenched for he knew he couldn't hold out...
He had been a good soldier...
Looking around at his options. The lift was something he could control through his Viper which meant he would be going down to Terra. No missiles but the guns could do enough as he flipped off the safety and closed the canopy as he squeezed the trigger. Watching his bullets tear into the wall and Vipers, he spotted the SFs taking cover but his way out was closed. Hearing bullets enter his Viper, his reign ended with Gabriel putting two bullets in hum as he peered over it him; "You didn't win today," laughing while crews put out the fires.

Running for cover, bullets rang out in the Hangar Bay as the deck crew informed him it was James and now it meant hoping small arms fire put down the Viper. Waving the SFs and Marines to keep fire on the Viper, rushing back to the small arms locker for a M4A1 DMR before rushing back to take on the crazed pilot. High caliber rounds for the cockpit canopy before shifting a regular magazine as he fired two shots at the pilot that stunned him long enough for the chief to pull the power to the guns. Dragging the man out, he could see a change but before he could do anything or ask anything about it; the Viper exploded sending fragments everywhere and throwing him across the deck. Alarms rang out while crews were working on the fires as well as the injured.

As Frost and her team arrive on the Hangar Deck she motions for them to follow her. Crouching down she noticed Grif who had been knocked unconscious. He appeared to be coming to as he was rubbing his head. Not knowing who to trust today she nodded at him and kept going.
The Medical Team crouched low, following her lead and they used the smoke for cover as she lead them to her Raptor. It was pulled out and waiting for her. "Thank you Colonel Hale" she muttered with a smile. "at least one thing is going right for us today" she thought.
As she opened up the ramp to the Raptor she lead the way inside. Motioning for the team to sit in the back she settled into the Pilot's seat and quickly looked things over. Running the preflight checklist as fast as she could. When satisfied that all was right she keyed the mic "Raptor 806 lifting off" she pushed the throttle forward and the Raptor veered to the right as it headed out into space for Gondowa.

STARBOARD POD Cleared to land on Starboard side. SFs have secured the pod and the corridor to Medical is secure. JJ set the Raptor down and noticed Medical Team standing by ready to take the wounded to the Medical area for treatment. She lowered the ramp and shut down the Raptor. Getting up out of her Pilots Seat she removed the helmet and walked to the area where her passengers were. The entire hangar area seemed to be in disarray. Like a riot had happened while she was gone. Marines laying shot everywhere and those Special Force Guys were walking around fully armed like they were ready to kill anyone that crossed them. As the Medical Team arrived with gurneys they loaded up the wounded. "Good Luck" JJ said to the evacuees as they were removed from the area. She walked over to Grif "What the hell happened here while I was on Gondawa?"

She walked over to Grif "What the hell happened here while I was on Gondawa?" Pulling the spare ammunition off the dead Marines, Gabe waved off the SFs to take the pilot to the Brig as he noticed a raptor now on the deck. The team they carried off was Harperson's but there was a Specialist missing...damn! SFs can be affected too? This was concerning and had wild affects...affects that were still hurting him. Being blown across the deck, didn't ensure a soft landing with his shoulder dislocated and burns that ached from the explosion. Turning to the Captain, he holstered his pistol as he got up; "One of your pilots tried to kill us and I mean a good majority but took him alive before his Viper detonated," noticing a medical team coming in for him, "the Marines killed two SFs while they were recovering so we returned fire."

STARBOARD POD She walked over to Grif "What the hell happened here while I was on Gondawa?"
"One of your pilots tried to kill us and I mean a good majority but took him alive before his Viper detonated," noticing a medical team coming in for him, "the Marines killed two SFs while they were recovering so we returned fire." She could feel the shock apparent on her face at his statement. "Who? Who did this?" JJ would make damned sure they were brought up on charges and thrown in the Brig. The deck looked like a riot had taken place. "I managed to evac more of your kind off Gondawa and come back to accusations against my pilots? That's rich, coming from you!" She had just about had enough of the "special forces" B S. She served with honor and she followed the rules, something she did not see from any of them. She hadn't forgotten about him and his "special" payload that he was supposed to plant for the Cylons. Hell, for all she knew, he didn't plant it on purpose! Maybe HE is working with the Cylons! Might be better not to let on she suspected anything. Just before the Medics tended to his shoulder she thought better of herself. "Thanks for securing this side at least. I'm sorry about your team"

I'm sorry about your team" Getting up from the medic, Gabriel was done with this Colonial as he pushed the Captain for he found this offensive. He fought alongside the SFs considering they were more open than these spoiled Colonials but he too was Colonial. Speaking softly, just loud enough for her, he dropped his pistol to the ground; "I fight with these Terran Special Forces but I am Colonial just a strung up pompous one as you may be."
Waving off the CAG, he was done with his own kind considering they were more passionate to the murderers than those who should the responsibility. Even if they rebound from this, they would have to overcome this aggression otherwise wounds like this would fester.

It showed his true colors. She had had enough of his arrogance. He may be "special forces" but to her that just meant he did what he wanted and got by with it. She turned and walked away. Let them both cool off and maybe talk another day. Or not. This could go so many ways from this boiling point now.

Sifting though the damage, John noticed the pilot still cuffed to the landing gear of another Viper as he knelt down beside James; "Too bold but suggest you clean up and wait," picking the lock as the cuffs released. He has a plan and knew he needed the right moving parts for it to work as he watched the discussion between the CAG and Gabriel.
'The hour is getting too late' Screwing his suppressor tight as he rested the side of the rifle against the landing gear as he took aim at Gabriel. This could be a narrative he could spin as he fired two shots, one into Gabriel's hand and then the lower abdomen as the man fell soon yelling in pain. Pulling the suppressor off, he ran over with them other SFs as he began wrapping up the injuries before the SFs carried him off to the Medical bay. Telling the men it was the pilot who conducted the attack earlier, John knew they couldn't link it to him as he started his walk to Medical with the wounded Tauron.

Whirling around as she heard Grif call out and saw him fall to the deck. JJ quickly scanned the area to determine what happened. She saw SFs running toward him and caught the faint glint of something as Lt. November shoved something into his pocket and then ran to Grif. She pulled her sidearm and walked with her arm ready to fire should the need arise. Her eyes trained on him in particular as she got closer just before they reached the hatch "YOU, STOP RIGHT THERE" keeping her sidearm up as she drew closer to him "What did you put in your pocket?" she had reached them now and she kept the pistol trained on him as she felt around inside his jacket til she found it. Her eyebrow raised slightly as she pulled the silencer out and held it for all to see "What's this?"

Turning to the Captain with his eye lifted as he turned to a fellow SF to pull a silencer from his vest as well. His one piece of equipment came standard as he crossed his arms; "Captain, that is standard amongst both Marines and SFs considering we both do stealth operations," his A.I knew this Colonial was reaching for straws. Reaching into his vest for a pill bottle, popping a pair of pills as he hid the name of the pills; "can we get him to Medical or shall we strip down to make you feel comfortable with us?"
This Colonial was going to be an issue for his long term plan with his A.I formulating a plan to either kill or injure this pilot. He had a plan...
