I imagine they're probably coming up to find out what the shots are about. They'll probably try to wake up the dazed technicians; I'll just stab the three of them in a vital spot, then I'll try an take a look at what the security people are doing.

Damage
1d6 -1
1: 6 - 1 = 5
2: 1 - 1 = 0
3: 1 - 1 = 0

AOA Knife to Vitals (17-3)

3d6 <= 14
1: 6 + 5 + 3 = 14 ... success
2: 4 + 2 + 1 = 7 ... success
3: 6 + 1 + 4 = 11 ... success

I guess some are woken up by incompetent stabbing and one is in a bad spot. I guess I have to deal with that before I look at the guards.

Pacifica goes with the story she prepared with her group. Besides her teammates, no one knows Pacifica is there; she did not tell Vinobi she would be there, so she will assume Vinobi made an educated guess about her. Since Pacifica recognizes Vinobi’s voice, she whispers:

Vinobi is with us, be careful with the others, attack when I do.

Then Pacifica replies to Vinobi like this (her voice and her way of speaking being clearly Pacifica's):

Sir, this is “X” (name on her tag). I am glad you made it here! Deck 9 is safe, but these men got shot and they need urgent attention, help us please. The enemy implied reinforces were coming, stay alert.*.

She slowly approaches Vinobi and company, she lets her foes get close and enter reach C. She is carrying the body of the fallen officer with the help of another security crewman. Pacifica is ready to drop the body and take down the threats. She is being careful with her positioning, leaving enough room for defensive maneuvers and avoid getting team-shot.

*Friendlies should be in position to attack.

The first one goes down.

The second one takes the minimum 1 point of damage x3 for 3 points of damage. He breaks out of his stun ... somewhat. The situation is still very confusing and he's not immediately sure what to do.

Remind me where Hua got a knife from again.

He saw her face but missed her tag.

Lt. Butieku curses. "<explicative> They did attack! What happened to the comms? we've been trying to reach you. How many causalities? We need to establish contact with the officer quarters!"

Lt. Butieku is moving quickly and talking rapidly. She and the four soliders stride quickly towards Pacifica, holding their weapons, but not pointing them at her...

Roll tactics for positioning yourself out of friendly fire lines.

Well, his daze but anyway. I'll keep stabbing the same area.

Now he's going down I suppose. Then it's on to the next one, provided the first hadn't dodged or anything.

No problem.

The second blow is enough to drop him.

No problem.

ok, so its a combat knife you got from security... and 1d6-1 damage is correct.

The other guy you stab acts much the same way... he's out of his daze, but still very much stunned from surprise.

Four men move around through doors into C1 and C3. As they open the doors, a security member pops up through the lower fore hatch and fires at the people coming through C1. One of the men goes down.

Daymar's move.

Daymar attempts suggestion on the person who fired. (OOC: I'm not sure on the range penalty, my base skill of 17 absorbs -1).

Suggestion

3d6 <= 16
4 + 3 + 6 = 13 ... success

What is the suggestion?

I swear and stab him a second time.

That should drop him. Now let's go look into that hatch they wanted to look into:

Daymar suggests that he lay down his weapon, and approach Daymar. If that goes ahead, he will also suggest that he tells them how many others are with him.
