Cylus still in bed, bolted up as Marker walked through the door. Before Marker could react, Cylus activated his Impulse, scrambling around the room to get his gear on. Within a couple of moments, but what was really a mere two seconds, Cylus had put everything on but his helmet.
"Ta-daa!" Cylus says, flashing a grin and a pair of jazz hands. "You know, I had another 25 minutes... Give or take." he says with a chuckle.

"Yeah you did. So I don't understand why you did the thing you do where you turn into the secondhand version of Flash." Marker laughed, shaking his head

[spoiler]Second hand flash lmao[/spoiler] "Well... Ya know.... Professionalism." Cylus says with a laugh. He stopped for a moment and looked at the clock. "Q!" he said aloud. [quote]*Gotcha covered.* Q says.[/quote] On the table opposite to Cylus' bed, a coffee maker automatically went off. When the cup was full, Cylus picked it up and began drinking. "No cream, no sugar. Only way to drink it." he comments. "Thanks Q." [quote]*You betcha.*[/quote] "Q is installed throughout the armory. A little less portable than he'd like, but still physical in a sense." he says to Marker. "If you want a cup, he can make you one. Don't worry, I can turn around when you drink it." Cylus says jokingly
-
"No, I'm fine thank you. You know, temporarily, we could probably put Q into one of Spectres. Give him an actual form while you work on something more his style."
-
[quote]*OOH! OOOH! SAY YES* Q blurts from a speaker installed in the ceiling[/quote] "Well, it would help for the time being... But what's a spectre?" Cylus asks.
-
"We have a few different types of units underneath the Militia. Grunts, Pilots, Titans are the ones you know about. We also have Stalkers, Spectres and Reapers, which are A.I.'s mostly made to fight for us."

-
"I can get it arranged. Get you a Spectre straight off the assembly line, yeah?" Marker said, patting Cylus' shoulder
-
Edited by BondyMilk: 6/21/2017 4:19:25 AM"That would be pretty awesome actually!" Cylus says. "And I'm pretty sure Q's on board." [quote]*Hell yeah I'm on board! Imagine watching someone play a video game for years, and never being able to play! That's the hell I live in* Q sighs[/quote]

"I'll see what I can do about it. As of right now, we should start heading out soon." Marker said, turning to leave the armoury "Whenever you're ready." Marker said, leaving the small store.
-
"Yeah, let's." Cylus says. He closes the door as they exit his room, and then does the same as they leave the armory. He locked the door behind him, and smiles at Marker as they made their way off to the wall. The only thing that was odd was the fact that he neglected to put on his helmet and hood.

[spoiler]FINALLY GOT YOU AN IMAGE [/spoiler] Marker walked down the streets of Dojoville, walking towards one of the large plazas that was the host of a rather large empty space. In the plaza was a Militia dropship, and Marker quickly boarded the ship. The inside, now that Cylus thought about it, was actually rather small. Perhaps fitting a maximum of 6, maybe 8 troops on it.
-
[spoiler]Lol[/spoiler] Cylus walked up the ramp into the ship, getting a feel for the space.
-
"Dropships aren't usually meant for partaking in combat scenarios. If you're wondering about the small space. We're currently developing a large dropship that has some fire power on it and can carry a full 20 men at once." Marker said as the dropship lifted off
-
Edited by BondyMilk: 6/21/2017 4:56:41 AM"Ah, I'll look forward to seeing one." Cylus says. He turns around and looks at his company.
-
"Oh yes, of course." Marker glanced at a shorter person that was leaning against the hull of the dropship. "That's Justice." Marker said, gesturing to the woman who looked over with a nod. "She'll always be pissed about her hair loss." A female voice said, and Marker turned around to face another woman. This woman was clearly older, her posture more stiff. "Private First Class Desiree Williams." The woman said, extending a hand. The hand was immediately smacked away by a tall, extremely tough looking man. He stepped directly face to face with Cylus, nearly four inches above Cylus' head. "Aidan. Sargeant of this merry band of misfits." Marker sighed, looking past Aidan "You've already met Holden. The pilot that dished out our cards yesterday." Holden waved from the back of the cargo ship, standing by the ramp. "And that's Morgan." Marker nudged a man that stood besides him, and the man jolted awake "Hm? Oh hel-" Morgan yawned deeply before snoring was heard from him
-
"Ah, nice to meet you all." Cylus says, shaking Aidan's hand and greeting each individual respectively. He nods to Holden, who he remembered from the previous day. "So are Davis, Bear, and Droz going to meet us there?"Cylus asks, turning back to Marker
-
"With Gates, yes. They'll meet us on the ship we're going to." Marker said with a nod
-
"Finally going to meet this Gates figure, eh? Well, let's not disappoint." Cylus says. "How long's the ride?"
-
"Not long. Should be-" There was a thump, the ship had landed. "There it is." The ramp fell open and Marker walked out, motioning for Cylus to follow
-
"Oh, interesting." Cylus says with a chuckle. He follows Marker off the ship with all of the others
-
They exited out into a hangar, with a few dozen Titans standing around or crouching. Miltia grunts ran throughout the hangar, loading up into small pods that resembled an escape pod but only held a single person. There were a few robotic things that Cylus didn't recognize. They were shorter than your average Titan but larger then a human. https://imgur.com/AgcWOXq "Those are reapers" Marker said as he walked towards a hallway
-
"So I'm guessing this won't just be a reconnaissance mission, am I right?" Cylus says, looking at the Reapers in awe
-
"It is. We're going it with three squadrons. Sargeant Aidan's, Commander Gates' and a third squadron. We'll be dropping in at different points."
-
"And what if there is... trouble?" Cylus asks. "Back up?"
-
"That's what the reapers are for. They're dropping in after we radio in for backup. If it comes to that."
