"Copy the Tarantula down. I switched with Jordan before we headed out. I'm approaching the LZ," said McCauley.
The mining mech came into view of the dropship, the LZ was no more than a cleared area of forest with blast padding so the forest didn't light on fire when the dropship's thrusters engaged to take it off the ground. A battered squad of Purifier battle armor stood parameter guard.
The miner powered down and a man dismounted. He was in his mid-thirties with a stocky build and light red hair. The lead Purifier saluted him. He passed through their checkpoint quickly and continued into the dropships cargo bay.
He pushed the button on the intercom. " Captain tell everyone to get aboard. Abandon the mechs it will take too long to secure them for the travel."
"As you wish," replied the com link.
"Sword of Blake guide you flight Captain McCauley out."
