Six: ...they don't seem military.
Which one of us is the quietest? Try to get closer, see if we can get a clearer picture of what they're talking about.
And if one of them's wearing red and black armor...
"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."Hastur gets a small bag of yellow pigment out of his hoodie pocket and draws a Yellow Sign on his forehead, then turns to his allies. As they see it, they can hear his voice telepathically now, clear as day.
Hastur: Sound like civvies to me. Scientists or engineers. Lisa, care to take a look? ... Of course. ~looks at the empty place where the giantess recently was~

Distraction
-BOOOM!-
-You manage to make it away from the frag grenade-
-And the resulting tiberium fire ball that goes off from the flame trooper-
-Dispite all this, and very visable damage, including 2 of 3 optics being busted, an exploded tank-
-Gashes and cuts in the armor-
-The blackhand trooper is still moving and alive, just.... wobbly-
-... for a few seconds at least before they fall face down into the sand-
Stealth
-Lisa, you can aproach, when you do, you would find them in one of the rooms that has opened up to the surface, you can see the sky above-
-In the pit is a shimmering pilar that you can barely see-
-Or well, thats kind of what is behind this room, given this room seems to be a monitering station for that-
-The voices are a man and a woman, wearing black labsuits with red trim-
-Operating some kind of terminal-
Distraction
-The blackhand trooper IS actualy okay-
-Contrary to the two dead grunts nearby, that were caught in the tiberium fireball-
-But ehhh, grunts, and minimum casulties, you SHOULD still be okay-
Stealth
-It appears to be a generator of some kind-
-Not electric-
-But unless you can read alien.....-
Woman: How much longer do you think we can keep the cloaking feild up?
Man: No clue, was not expecting them to leave any one outside.... maybe 5 minutes?
Helidor: All I got in this situation is a gardening knife and a bunch of sunflowers.

The Crystal Caverns A bird's gotta sing.Distraction
-Naomi keeps hitting any grunt she sees with flashes of a pain beam-
Stealth
-Six waits-
Six: -to Hastur- Fair point. Splitting up just means it's easier for them to pick us off anyways.
The base looks deserted, but looks deceive...

"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."(@Quartz) Hastur: {Around the maintenance tunnels? There are no stars, y'know. And compass won't do you any good. Foes pack armor-piercing ammo, so nobody splits off alone here.}
(@Six) Hastur: {If he wants to go, I'll go with him. But only after Lisa finishes with these and we get all info we can.}
Six: -to Lisa- Even then, active camo usually leaves a trace of its activity. It's good for long range, but up close you'll see it. It'll flicker, it'll distort light a bit around the edges of the camouflaged target, it doesn't muffle noise...
Now that I think of it, I haven't seen any hint of camouflage. But outside I caught a glimpse of a shimmering sea.
Alright. Idea. We go in, take those two hostage, and get them to drop the cloak field. Distraction team will get more time.

"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."(@Lisa) Hastur: {The thing is the base is likely empty since we aren't cloaked, yet nobody has spotted us from invis. There's nobody around to assist these two. We should dispose of them and drain all the info out of terminal.}
(@Six) Hastur: {A wise decision. I'm on hold till you order.}

-Thinks, and nods- @Hastur Albert: "You're right, it's iffy."
Will make dad jokes for friends.
