Re: Lauren Orphan (TentanariX)
"Ya, those things aren't as tough as I thought," replies Wolters. "We'll keep an eye for the little things." "Roger," replies Serpico.
The drone at the far end of the village makes it across to the church and flies in through a broken window.
Tindall, Serpico and Wolters all move forwards and take better firing positions behind the stone wall surrounding the village. When nothing happens, Wolters and Serpico carge across open ground into the first cluster of huts. "Clear!" The both declare as they enter the first ones. "There's a courtyard here between the huts," informs Wolters.
"I'm backing you up," states Tindall flatly. "It wouldn't feel right if you found youself in trouble and you were alone without help." She hunkers down behind her wall and prepares to provide covering fire for Lauren.
Lauren herself runs down the road towards the gnarly cypress, approaching the first shop. As she gets closer, she finds broken and rotted patio sets littering the ground and the remains of a picket fence. The side of the shop has double screen doors, and Lauren can see more dining table and chairs, many knocked over.
Near the remains of the picket fence, Lauren senses something off. One of the still standing portraits on the wall still has it's glass panel, and is reflecting the light from the front window. In it there is the silhouette of a small saucer, and now that she's listening for it Lauren can hear another low humming sound. There's another drone inside the wrecked restaurant near the far wall, waiting to shoot at someone coming in.
The side wall of the restaurant has no windows, and all Lauren can see inside through the double doors are the remains of dining tables. Only the bar still stands towards the left and back of the room, shelves behind bear of liquor or drinking glasses. Judging by the angle of the reflection, if Lauren took few steps to her left the drone would be in her field of view, as would she be in the drone's.

Lauren's perception roll (97) beats Drone's stealth value. Drone is waiting on overwatch.
