The two continued to carefully climb the tower while staying alert for any other individuals they might come across, however they encountered no one else until they stepped onto the tower's roof and carefully looked around.
At the edge off the roof facing the designated meeting spot was another individual who was crouched down beside a larger looking sniper rifle while holding a pair of what to Adam looked like futuristic binoculars.
They were about to approach the individual quietly when they suddenly heard them speak.
"No sign of the targets yet."
"Affirmative all set up."
"Copy that will wait for the signal and then eliminate the two specified targets."
Adam and Stacey looked at each other in surprise after hearing what the individual said before they heard them continue.
"Are you sure you don't want all three eliminated?"
"Understood." The individual said before going silent as he continued to use the high tech binoculars.
Seeing no one else on the roof other than themselves Adam was about to shoot the individual before Stacey placed a hand on his arm stopping him.
As he looked at her quizzically she shook her head before pointing at herself.
Understanding what she meant Adam lowered his arm again just as Stacey pointed at the beam saber attached to the back of his belt.
Shrugging he grabbed it before passing it over to Stacey who nodded and began to creep towards the individual.
[Celebrityhunter69 (Earth): @OfficialRowena are you ok with the fact that your granddaughter is about to kill someone?]
[OfficialRowena (Felinia 4 ): Why wouldn't I be, I happen to know it's not the first time she has done such and compared to some other members of our family she's actually saint like.]
[Ayato_Kanzaki (Earth): Are you sure you should be revealing that?]
[OfficialRowena (Felinia 4 ): It's fine, we Brood are known to be bloodthirsty at times and it's not because we sometimes drink blood. 🤭]
[DeverinianLordMalacoss (Deverinian 9): Indeed, Rowena's own grandfather is known as the butcher of Lueat on account that he killed so many during the Lueat galactic war, how is the old fool by the way.]
[OfficialRowena (Felinia 4 ): He's doing very well thank you, however I'm not sure you calling him an old fool is appropriate since you're just as old as he is.]
[AlamoMatador4thewin (Earth): What is this Lueat galactic war you spoke off?]
[DeverinianLordMalacoss (Deverinian 9): Lueat is the name of the galaxy that the Brood home world of Darah is based in. A long time ago after the Brood first learned space flight they started to colonize other planets in their system and then galaxy.]
[DeverinianLordMalacoss (Deverinian 9): As almost always happens in any race, once these colonies have existed for several generations they start to demand independence from their origin world which usually ends up escalating into a war between the home world that has far greater resources and the colonies.]
[DeverinianLordMalacoss (Deverinian 9): The butcher of Lueat earned his title from killing a group of the colony's leaders that were having a secret meeting. The story goes that he alone snuck into the meeting location before fighting and killing them all.]
[OfficialRowena (Felinia 4 ): That's just grandfather's exaggerated version of the story, really he had a dozen of his men with him.]
[DeverinianLordMalacoss (Deverinian 9): Regardless the deed earned him the rank of grand general of the Brood from the Brood queen. He became the second highest authority under only the brood queen herself and he led the war against the colonies that ultimately ended in their victory.]
[DeverinianLordMalacoss (Deverinian 9): He earned the title not only because of his killing of the colony leaders, but because he always stood at the forefront of any battle he participated in, by the end of the war his kill count was so high that no one knew the exact number.]
[Gunlovergirl (Earth): Fuck that's badass, I want to meet him.]
[1000yearsofdeath (Earth): Did he bite their necks and drain their blood? Kekeke.]
[OfficialRowena (Felinia 4 ): Ugh, that's just nasty. 🤮 If you were in front of me right now I would remove you head and crush it under my boot.]
[1000yearsofdeath (Earth): …]
[Noobkiller9000 (Earth): Oh shit.]
[OfficialLorelie (Terrana 5): Calm yourself Rowena, that Earthling is from outside the known universe and do not realise that what they just said is disrespectful to all Brood.]
[1000yearsofdeath (Earth): It is?]
[OfficialLorelie (Terrana 5): Yes, Brood only drink blood from the necks of one individual and that is there mate, they see it as the highest level of romance because of the pleasure it brings to both parties that is apparently even greater than sexual pleasure. ]
[OfficialRowena (Felinia 4 ): Though not greater than drinking your lover's blood while having sex, god I miss that feeling since that old bastard died.]
[OfficialLorelie (Terrana 5): It's your own fault for not turning him when you have the chance.]
[OfficialRowena (Felinia 4 ): Hmph. I may have loved him but that Terran was not worthy to spend the rest of my life with.]
[Tessisdabest (Terrana 5): Is that because he was a Terran Diva Rowena?]
[OfficialRowena (Felinia 4 ): Not at all. Unlike most I have no problem with the Terran race since my last husband was one of you and especially so with how you have helped Lorelie recently. No when I say he was not worthy I mean him as an individual. I could not see myself spending the rest of my life with him.]
[AlamoMatador4thewin (Earth): Sorry to interrupt, but if you don't drink from the neck unless it's your partner, how do you feed? We were told previously that Brood's need to feed in order to stay immortal.]
[OfficialRowena (Felinia 4 ): Indeed we do. In terms of normal feeding we usually feed on the blood of our familiars that we have not turned, we suck the blood from their wrists.]
While they were talking the chat continued to watch as Stacey snuck up right behind the individual before activating Adam's beam saber and pushing the laser beam it generated through the individual's throat.
The individual dropped the binoculars and grabbed at their throat as they tried to stop their blood from leaking out while they turned to see Stacey looking down on them before they collapsed sideways and started falling towards the roof edge.
Stacey quickly grabbed them and pulled them so as to make the individual fall onto the roof top instead as they died.
[OfficialRowena (Felinia 4 ): Very well done my granddaughter.]
[Devil_Prince_Asura (Deverinian 9): Why did she not just stab them in the head and kill them instantly?]
[Werewolf1987 (Caniniar 4): Probably so they can identify them again, a giant gaping hole in the head could make identifying them difficult.]
Adam walked over and held his hand over the corpse allowing Spector to once again retract the helmet.
What they found was another Nagareen but female this time instead of male.
"Spector, can you hack their comms?"
[[Affirmative standby.]]
As he waited Adam swung the bag off his back and put it on the floor before opening and retrieving a small device he handed to Stacey.
Stacey recognised it as a comm device which she quickly hooked around her ear just in time to hear a voice she recognised as Spector say, "Hacking complete." before conversation between different voices she didn't recognise started coming through it.
"Team one is in transit and will arrive at the meeting location soon, ETA in ten minutes.
Team two remain on overwatch and inform us immediately if you spot anything suspicious.
Teams three and four remain on standby until the signal is given."
"Seems like team one is the group going to the actual meet, I think we can assume the two we took out are team two since from this tower we can watch over everything around." Adam stated.
"As for teams three and four they could very well be the ambush teams Jessie was worried about." Stacey finished.
"Well since this one here." Adam said, pointing to the dead Nagareen lying near them before continuing, "Was a female you're the one who needs to respond if they ask for updates."
"Copy that." Stacey said as she made a mock salute before asking, "What about this sniper rifle?"
"Is it any good?" Adam asked curiously.
"No idea, I'm no expert.." Stacey replied while shaking her head.
[Tessisdabest (Terrana 5): It's a Terran Munitions Canuto ballistic sniper rifle, it's one of their latest products.]
Adam repeated what Tess had just told him in the chat.
"Of course you're streaming." Stacey replied while rolling her eyes before adding, "would have been nice if you informed me."
"You should always assume I'm streaming if there's any action." Adam replied shortly while examining the sniper rifle.
"Any action?" Stacey replied with a raised eyebrow.
[1000yearsofdeath (Earth): Hey oh, future sex stream incoming. Kekeke.]
[Puntanghunter69 (Earth): Oh god yes please.]
[Superhearofangirl (Earth): Fucking perverts. Do they even allow that though?]
As the alien chat started to explain to the Earthlings that sex streams were indeed a thing Adam realized what he said before saying, "Don't take me for that idiot Max who streams every girl he sleeps with."
"You're not denying that you will do it though." Stacey said with a smirk.
