Karj's breath came in short gasps, and blood spewed from his shoulder. He managed to staunch the bleeding with a piece of his uniform, but he'd need medical attention when he reached the Covenant fleet again. He turned to the rest of his squad and surveyed them, ensuring that they still stood.
"We need to... secure the command center. If we can get the main doors... doors open, then the battle for this sector is close to completion. We need to move quickly."
Karj moved as quickly as he could toward the door at the end of the tunnel, trying to avoid any further encounters with UNSC forces. After a few minutes the squad had reached the command center doors. The twin electronic locks and shock fields guarding this last obstacle were certainly formidable, but nothing the Jackal tech expert Skont couldn't handle. Unfortunately it would take at least ten minutes to breach the defenses, ample time for the humans to find them. Karj took cover behind some metal crates, hoping to hold the position.
"Squad, we need to dig into the area. Humans may or may not find us, but we need to be ready. Skont, see what you can do about the door defenses. We'll cover you."
