Bloody Ridge

File created: 2009-11-22 15:43

Jenkins is in a cosy hole a little way from the observation post, within speaking distance. A largish radio is tucked away. Jenkins himself is looking over the eastern flank.

Reports from the native scouts and Coastwatcher intelligence gave the Americans some advance warning. The Japanese are planning an assault, an attempt to repulse the Marines from the airfield. Just when or where it will come from, however, is still vague. But the boys are on high alert tonight. You lot have been posted to one of the positions on the edge of the line, to repulse whatever needs repulsing. For now, it is a waiting game, but it is generally assumed they will come tonight.

Cue entrance of one of those native scouts. Tavua slinks in from the south, moving quietly through the landmines and barbed wire entanglements as he moves to slip into one of the less full observation posts, unslinging his carbine and getting it ready.

Fischer settles in, his flamethrower near him. Fischer's leg is still heavily bandaged, but he seems fit for duty it seems. He smiles seeing Tavua and nods briefly to the scout. He turns his eyes to the east, "Keep your eyes open. Tell me which way we're looking, so we've got 'em all covered."

Slayback is laying on his belly in the observation point, his beast deployed on the bi-pod. He's got an aire of cold determination about him as he watches to the east.

Kappedal is in position near the back of the one of the observation posts, crouched down and quiet as they wait. Most of the time before they'd left had been spent by himself, in prayer that few who don't speak Hebrew would recognise as prayer specifically for Rosh Hashanah. Now silent and keeping to himself, his eyes stay turned towards the dark horizon.

Austin has been present, but lost in thought for a little while. He looks out there now, frowning a bit to himself.

Jenkins jumps as Tavua slips into the cramped post. He nods to the man and keeps looking out, rifle leveled. So there's nothing in the shadows. "Nothing like a long watch on a quite night eh?" He murmurs to the native. apparently high alert still doesn't mean much to him.

Tavua shares a hole with Jenkins. He says nothing to the noisy Marine as he peers to the east, scanning the jungle, listening for the absence of jungle-life that would allude to the presence of japs.

Fischer has turned his gaze south, looking quietly. "Don't see any," He shakes his head. He seems a bit tense. This waiting business is unnerving.

Jenkins shrugs and looks out in the same direction as Tavua. He's happy to sit quietly and not get shot at.

«Artillery» 90mm mortar artillery barrage batters Forest ineffectually.

«Artillery» You hear artillery pounding Forest (7 8).

Austin keeps his eyes on the south for the moment, waiting to see where the enemy might be coming from.

Slayback chews a piece of gum and continues watching, "I just want to see one of 'em's smilin-." He hunkers down without his BAR as the shells start hitting all around them.

Fischer blinks, and scowls. "That's not the sound of our arty. Duck!" He mutters and hunkers down.

«Artillery» 90mm mortar artillery barrage rips through Forest to deadly effect, filling the air with lethal shrapnel!

«Artillery» 90mm mortar artillery barrage batters Forest ineffectually.

Kappedal ducks his head down, dropping from crouching onto his knees in the jungle dirt. He exhales a long stream of air through pursed lips, chancing looking up between artillery shell booms. "Everyone alright?"

«Artillery» 90mm mortar artillery barrage batters Forest ineffectually.

Jenkins flinchs as he gets mortared. "There goes the quite night." He mutters to himself. "I'm guessing that means someone's coming after all." Was his rifle quite clean? This seems a good time to check, in the dark.

«Artillery» 90mm mortar artillery barrage rips through Forest to deadly effect, landing near Observation Post!

«Game» Kappedal tries to inspire the troops!

«Artillery» 90mm mortar artillery barrage rips through Forest to deadly effect, filling the air with lethal shrapnel!

Tavua hunkers down as the mortar fire pounds the observation post, must be a poorly made OP if the japs can see it and direct mortar fire on it, where is the Marine counterbattery fire? sheesh!

Slayback screams, "This is not how this is supposed to happen! You're supposed to march out here so we can shoot you, you little chink assholes!"

Fischer frowns and nods, "The trouble starts when the artillery /stops/. It's suicide to come out while it's falling." He blinks at Slayback and sets a hand on the man's shoulder. "It's alright, easy. You'll get your wish."

«Artillery» 90mm mortar artillery barrage rips through Forest to deadly effect, filling the air with lethal shrapnel!

"Just be still. They'll come soon enough," Kappedal mutters to Slayback and the small trench they're in.

The artillery is pounding the entire ridge. It's quite an impressive display, tearing though the trees but mostly the open area in the main lines behind them.

«Artillery» 90mm mortar artillery barrage rips through Forest to deadly effect, filling the air with lethal shrapnel!

Jenkins bends down for the radio, then thinks better of it, "Japs could still assualt a differant secter." He reassures himself. Feeling betterhe takes up his flank watch.

Slayback just sneers and nods at the hand on his shoulder, "I know I know." Another shell hits and he shakes a bit and grips his BAR a little tighter.

«Artillery» 90mm mortar artillery barrage batters Forest ineffectually.

«Artillery» Artillery barrage at Forest has lifted!

Fischer frowns and shakes his head again. "Charging during arty is suicide. It doesn't care whose side you're on. It's when it gets quiet we're in trouble," Fischer squints his dark blue eyes. He frowns at the sneer. A shrug and he looks to the south once more.

«Artillery» You hear artillery pounding Forest (7 8).

Kappedal is trembling by the time the artillery barrage stops, and trying hard not to look like he is. Artillery's simply not been his best friend ever since the aid station incidents, inspiring quite a bit more panic than it probably should.

Jenkins waits in the quiet for the shouts and shots to come, since he's covering an unlikely sector he expects these shouts and shots not to come from him, so he settles down in some sort of comfort.

Fischer pauses and offers Kappedal a little piece of gum. Does he notice the trembling? Hard telling. Fischer's not the most reassuring person on the planet, but he tries. "We'll be alright. Just keep your heads down, eyes open and don't ask about the sushi."

Slayback looks over at Fish, "Well Corporal, looks like I'm about to see if you earned those stripes." He grins and it looks like he's calmed down just a little bit.

As the bombadment ceases, there is a flash of light from offshore. And not from the direction that any American ships are patroling. The Japanese turn their searchlights on the Guadalcanal shore. They are here.

«Game» Kappedal tries to inspire the troops!

Austin keeps his eyes on the south, humming a little to himself. Ducking down a little bit as the enemy barrage which seems to be gone. At that searchlight, he looks up, shaking his head, "Come on, boys. Looks like we'll have to work for this one…"

Fischer blinks. Light… FIscher seems uneasy, although he smiles at Slayback. "Why? Will you tip me over and grab them if I haven't?" He seems amused. He takes a deep breath, steadying himself. "This shouldn't be hard, they're coming to us."

Tavua switches between looking south and east, scanning over the lip of the little foxhole.

Jenkins looks out to sea, blinded by the sudden strong light. There go his night eyes. He ducks down and squints out to his sector. "Can't see a damned." He mutters, squinting. If only they had some arrows to block out the light.

Slayback shrugs, "I just might." He winces as his eyes are hit with the bright light in contrast to dark jungle. He blinks a bit and says, "Stupid Tojo."

«Game» Austin tries to inspire the troops!

Kappedal raises his head slowly, the silence before the storm greeted with a little more courage on the medic's side. A little. The lack of boom booms help a bit. His hand raises a little, shadowing his eyes from the beams of the searchlights.

Austin shrugs a little, "They come, we're going to make them regret it," he offers with a bit of a grim smile. "We're in the well defended position after all."

Jenkins isn't quite as cheerful as the OP a little way from him. A look over at Tavua, though he doesn't say anything anymore, and he tries to look for the dark patches to get some of his night vision back, Japs are probably going to turn the lights off as they attack after all.

«Game» Kappedal tries to inspire the troops!

Austin frowns a little as he looks a bit more closely to the south. Readying his rifle quickly, he aims for something down there.

«Ground Combat» Austin fires his Garand at Kaito and hits!

Kaito suffers 7 wound damage to his left leg.

Jenkins hears a shot and turns to the south. Rather hastily.

«Game» Fischer assists Austin!

Tavua blinks as he looks south, seeing something as he rises up, aiming to the south with his carbine as he works to get into a position to shoot.

Kappedal sucks in a breath through his nose, looking south as Austin starts shooting.

Jenkins comes up beside Tavua, straining down the sights at a moving shadow.

Austin frowns, "Got him in the lef, and he ran off," he says, shaking his head a little.

Jenkins See's enough to notice that this one guy is getting a lot of attention, he stops to peer about, just incase there is someone else there.

«Game» Fischer assists Austin!

Austin fires off another shot, then pauses a little, frowning as he doesn't see anyone else so far.

Jenkins doesn't see anything, this is probably a very good time to replace the almsot spent clip.

«Ground Combat» Jenkins reloads his Garand!

Kappedal can see one corpse laid out in the jungle ground as the searchlight beams pass over it. He swallows lightly, eyes dipping down and then back up, trying to see around them.

Shinobu is finally brought down by a knife to the neck. Blood spurts everywhere as he falls.

Austin almost dives for Shinobu, aiming the knife for the man's head. And the amazing thing? It worked! Jerking the knife free, he wipes it on the dead enemy's uniform and gets out his rifle again.

Slayback clutches his stomach as the bayonet slips neatly past his defenses. He swiftly falls to his knees, "Fuckin' Tojo." He glances up and expects the receive a final blow but just sees the man fall to the ground.

«Game» Austin unwields his KA-BAR!

«Game» Slayback changes his style to Stealth!

Slayback sits down and tries his best to get hidden and smirks at Austin, "I had it handled."

Jenkins sinks down in the new OP. "Think that's it for the night?" He mutters, he's rather blanched. "Think we'll get cycled out soon?" Not that he's afraid of dying, it's more that his stomach isn't made out of cast iron.

Slayback offers a nod of thanks to Ben, "Always count on you to help me out. I'm gonna have to learn one of those prayers from you, they seem to be working out alright."

Austin shrugs a little bit as he hears Slayback, offering a bit of a grin, "I saw that. Good work." Moving to look out to the east again.

Kappedal shoves his pistol back into its holster once the Japanese soldier is down. Breathing hard and hands still shaking, he makes his way towards Slayback and pulls out bandages to get onto the man's gut and chest. He offers SLayback a forced smile at that. "It's Rosh Hashanah," he says quietly. "Guess Adonai isn't too mad about breaking mitzvoh."

Tavua sinks back into his little foxhole, sitting on the piles of brass that have built up, and one dead jap which is heaved out of the hole and stacked like a sandbag.

Jenkins has apparently stopped listening to everyone. He looks back to Tavua and shrugs to himself, then back out to the south again, he still hasn't noticed Fischer's missing voice.

Slayback glances around at the boys in the OP, "Overall, good work out there, soldiers." He checks Fish's pistol and reloads it, just in case. To Ben's reply, "Yeah…I don't know what that means."

There's still the sound of fighting along the line, but it seems to be dying down now.

"Nothing." Kappedal finishes tying off Slayback's chest wound and retreats back on his knees, towards Fischer's body. "Jenkins, they need to get Fischer back to the doc."

«Game» Guadalcanal is no longer a war zone!

«Radio» Strife radios, Green Giant, HQ. What's your status? Outpost personnel are being recalled to reinforce the main line. You got a clear path?

Jenkins looks up. "Fischer?" He looks around, there's more than one body around, and that one's wearing a marine uniform. "Right." He nods uncertainly. "It seems to be stopping now. Take Slayback to carry the stretcher if he can manage it." A pause. "The rest of us should get cycled out soon." He stops, what's he saying, oh the radio… "Wait a sec.

«Radio» Jenkins radios, This is Green Giant. Path is clear. No hostiles in sight. We need at least one marine evacuated by jeep I think. One or two more wounded.

«Radio» HQ radios, Roger, Green Giant. Get your asses back up here, ASAP. Get the wounded sorted. Captain'll have further orders once the squads're gathered.

Austin sinks down in the trench a little, frowning as he looks around.

Jenkins mutters into the radio uncertainly, thinking about what he was thinking when he spoke to Kappe. "I've asked for a jeep Ben." He mutters, hopping the man forgot his last strange outburst. He listens to the radio. "We're to get back nroth ASAP. Don't know if they're sending a jeep." He frowns.

Kappedal nods, settling in beside Fischer's body. The man's bleeding's stopped at least, but it does look awfully nasty.

Tavua picks up his carbine, creeping out of the hole, making sure he left nothing behind that would help the japs as he looks to the others before slinking off northwards.

Jenkins takes a look around. "Right what are we waiting for?" He stands up. "Looks like we're going by stretcher Ben, I'll give a hand." A look to the rest and he starts going over everything jsut incase he leaves something important.
