Galaxy Commander Jeter:Firebase Gamma was lost. We have also heard that Draconis Combine forces have landed in the northern hemisphere and have overrun our Galaxy there. We are all that remain of the Jaguar on Port Arthur. I need a status report of your mechs and their battle worthiness.
(To Arod) You got to replace that thing.
(To group) Marauder IIC ready to go.
Night Gyr Prime, ready for combat.
Kodiak fully repaired and reloaded
Good, I'm expecting an attack here at the HQ. No more falling back, no more retreating, We are Jaguars, we do not Run! We will hold them here then...
The double doors to the meeting den burst open as Jeter is talking...
(Walks through doors followed by his command star of Mechwarriors, Interrupting Jeter mid sentence)
We will do no such thing Galaxy Commander. We have new orders from our Khan.
Ah, the frightened cub has come south after failing his duties in the north and now expects to hide behind the orders of his Khan...
(Striding aggressively toward Jeter)
How dare you speak to Ruth that way...
(Catches up to Mantel and places hand on his shoulder to hold him back)
Easy Mick...Easy.
I'm sure the Galaxy Commander has forgotten that Galaxy Commander Ruth has overall command here on Port Arthur.
Understandable mistake. What have his forces been facing? A lone company of inner sphere warriors, a reserve unit at that. He would have had plenty of time to growl orders out to his troops.
Both stars of Jaguar warriors advance on each other except the Galaxy Commanders. Just as punches are about to be thrown...
ENOUGH! We are withdrawing....not only from Port Arthur but from the Inner sphere all together.
All the Jaguar warriors stop in their tracks looking at Ruth with mouths agape, wondering if they heard him correctly.
Khan Lincoln Osis commands that all Jaguar forces are to withdraw from the Inner Sphere and make for the Clan homeworlds. Our enemies plan has been uncovered...the do not intend to just beat us, they intend to wipe out our Clan. As poorly as we have fared here on Port Arthur many planets have already fallen to the counter attack. We must fall back in order to save our Clan. To stay and fight will only weaken us to the point of our doom. That is all...Dismissed
The Jaguar warriors look at each other and slowly leave the room with slumped shoulders and puzzled looks of disbelief, wondering where it had all gone so wrong...
