There was a small army defending this place and the building acted as a cage, so nothing could get in or out.
It was a volatile situation, and ironically, you were going to take the most direct solution.
You came down from the roof and met Rakta at the edge of the compound.
Giving an explanation of your plan and intentions and you asked her to stay away and hidden just in case.
But you didn't mention what was inside the station because you know she would quickly resort to violence.
"I don't understand why you trust the abominations, but i'm trusting you to not get shot."
She said with a stern face and ended up jabbing her finger accusingly at the scars on your chest.
"Dont be an idiot, don't give them the benefit of the doubt."
She withdrew from the area and tried to find cover in the ash desert.
With that more or less resolved, you stepped into the open and called the attention of the patrolling chimeras with a shout.
There were few outside the building, but they all turned their gaze to you.
And they kept still, if they weren't machines you would think they were confused.
They remained in that state of suspension until a chimera came out of the building and came at you with its weapon raised.
Its prerecorded voice was too distorted, some words were lost in the static.
“Stop! Identify ####self!// You ar###n viol##ion of the law // ### are [TRESSPAS####] on [MILITARY #####] // You are: # #DER ARREST! "
You understood enough, you identified yourself and demanded that Colonel Cedalion appear immediately.
There was a pause in the movement of the chimera.
After half a minute of waiting, he spoke again, lowering his weapon.
"5 minute wait."
And that's what you expected, almost exactly five minutes.
You mentally preparing yourself and thinking of arguments to use with Cedalion.
And the chimeras around you frozen in time, the movement of their breathing the only indication that they were still alive.
