WormFrame: The Third Dream (Worm/Warframe Crossover)

Votes closed.

Ms. Ripp nods and writes something down. "I can understand why you would have that attitude in a city like Brockton Bay. Between us, among educators, this city is known for being a place to bury embarrassing employees." The counselor was about to ask Taylor another interview question when her intercom began beeping. Releasing an exasperated sigh, she answered the intercom tersely. The voice on the other end, which you recognized as the secretary you gave your answer sheet to, says the bizarre phrase, "The cubs want to join a wolf hunt." You assume its some kind of code from the way Ms. Ripp stiffened up. "Taylor, I know that we didn't get much done but we're going to have to resume this at a later time, I need to deal with this. We'll contact your parents at a later date." As you leave, you hear her mutter under her breath "This is the third excursion this month for Christ's sake." You take out your phone and you're about to call your father when you receive a call from Mrs. Militia. You answer, making sure the hallway was clear of any students when you do. You're not even able to get a word in when Ms. Militia says, "Taylor, I know you're in an interview but we need you to get to the PRT building. The van Harrow was in is being attacked by an unknown force." You nearly drop the phone from hearing that. The interview cutting off early because of the strange message and now this? It can't be a coincidence.




You are Staff Sergeant Michael Colt of the PRT, and everything just went to hell. This was supposed to be a routine courier mission - get the tinkertech to the Protectorate headquarters in one piece. Sure, the fact that the tech was apparently alive and the tinker wanted it to ride like a human, but you've heard stranger requests, like the Rosefield incident.

You don't like talking about the Rosefield incident.

Imagine your surprise when a mine detonates under the van as it passes through a neighborhood known for its lack of Protectorate supervision and yet still being claimed by none of the gangs, not even the merchant. The truck immediately was blown over onto its side but was still safe thanks to the enhanced materials protecting it. Then they started pelting it with laser rifles. The six of you - five plus one tinker's toy you reminded yourself - retreated to behind the overturned vehicle when Williams threw a flashbang at your attackers. Protectorate reinforcements were on the way but that meant holding them off for the five to seven minutes until they got here, and the van already was beginning to heat up from the continued barrage.

As if things weren't bad enough, the tin can is trying to get your attention. You turn to it, and it begins making motions that you assumed meant it wanted to got up and over the makeshift barricade. You freeze - could it be that this thing was actually intelligent? That would get the tinker chick in hot water, but even before that it was suicide to try and take on that much firepower single handed. But still, you've never seen tinkertech like this before, and you've seen DragonTech in action.


What do you do about the bot?
[]Let it do what it wants - It's tinkertech, there's a 50/50 chance that it will be able to take it.
[]Make it stay down - you still have your original objective, even if it'll be a bit "DElayed."


What do you command your squad to do?
[]Everyone follow the tinker-toy up and over (Only select if you choose the first option above.)
[]Half of them provide suppressing fire while the rest of you move to cover that won't explode, then do the same for the crew still behind the truck.
[]Stay put and hope that the PRT will get here in time.
