How long are you planning on standing here?

Time to strike.
Today is our lucky day.

Watch out!
Watch your flanks.

We better search for another way through.
We might wanna rethink our route.
We must've overlooked something.
We need to head this way.
We oughta check that out.
We should do a sweep of the area.
Well then.
We're getting close.
We're not alone.
We've been spotted.

What are you worried about?

Where are you going?
Why are we turning around?

You okay on your own?
You picked the wrong fight.
You serious?
