"Got ya. Before we go, I should introduce you to somebody. GATES!" Marker called, looking at one of the dropships.
Turning around was a Titan Pilot and Marker quickly waved them over

The pilot quickly came over, extending a hand to Cylus
"Section Commander Gates of the 6-4." The pilot's voice was female, but the accent wasn't easily identifiable
English

Edited by BondyMilk: 6/21/2017 11:21:38 PM"Recruit Pilot Cylus of the Ninth Fleet, nice to meet you Commander Gates." Cylus says, shaking her hand.
-
"Nice to meet you as well." Cylus was able to piece together a small bit of her accent, maybe some French? "See you on the ground, Gates." "Indeed you will, Lieutenant Colonel Marker." Maybe Spanish? "How many times do I have to say? No need for formalities." "But it is the proper thing to say, sir." It had to be one of the European states. "Peu importe, mademoiselle." Marker said with a laughed, sending her off "Let's get this started." Marker boarded one of the dropships, motioning for Cylus to follow
-
Cylus walked up the ramp, and stood beside Marker on the ship. "Since when do you speak French?" He asks.
-
"Since I met Gates." Marker said. "She's fluent in six or seven languages. French, Spanish, Italian, Russian, English, and I think Polish." The dropship ramped closed, and around Cylus and Marker were two grunts and another pilot.
-
"Impressive." Cylus says. "You learned it for her, eh?" he asks, nudging Marker with his elbow?
-
"No, she taught me. Says it's important to remember your roots." Marker said as the dropship launched off from the ship's hangar "By the way. This is Victor, Charlie, and Brian." Marker said, gesturing to the grunts respectively
-
"So [i]you're[/i] French?" Cylus asks Marker as he nods to each person respectively. "I'm Cylus, I'll be accompanying you folks today."
-
"My father was, yeah." Marker said with a nod
-
"That's pretty cool." Cylus comments
-
"Or well at least, my father's Blood line was. Anyways, that's not really the point." [i]T-minus 2 minutes[/i]
-
"Ah, well we can talk later. Looks like we're almost here." Cylus says, his hands resting on his belt.
-
"Are those suppressors on your guns?" He asked, the grunts nodding
-
"Ah, no time like the present." He says. He pulls out one of his Mk23 pistols and screws on the suppressor, then does the same with the other. He primes both, turning one upside down and to the right, the other right side up and to the left, and then sliding them against each other.

[i]T-Minus 30 seconds[/i] "Here we go, cupcakes! You all know the mission directives." [i]T-minus 20 Seconds[/i] "We're dropping in and moving into the outpost, looking for information." [i]T-minus 10 seconds[/i] "Information on what may have happened. Stay safe, stay close. Watch each other's backs." [i]T-minus 3 2 1 Drop[/i] The ramp of the dropship fell open and Marker ran out, jumping out followed by the three grunts
-
Cylus followed, jumping into freefall behind them
-
The drop was only a few feet, but the landing still sent a shockwave through Cylus. The top of the base was being pounced at by rain, and the dropship pulled away. Marker and the three grunts moved forward, passing by an anti air turret that was shut down
-
Cylus turned his comms on and turned the soundproofing in his helmet on. That way, he could speak and be unheard by anyone who wasn't on his channel. "So, where's our point of entry?"
-
"We're moving to the edge of the building and rappelling down the side, entering through one of the windows into the third floor." Marker said as the squad approached a railing
-
Cylus followed, ready to proceed
-
"Grapples on." Marker threw his grapple over the rail and climbed over, making his way down "The rain falls into your visor, or might get hard to see so be careful!" Victor yelled as he did the same, the others following in suit
-
[spoiler]is it night on this planet?[/spoiler] Cylus pulled his hood up over his helmet before grabbing onto the rail. Attaching a grapple to it, he climbed over and followed the others down the face of the building
-
[spoiler]Yes sir! [/spoiler] Lighting struck behind them, hitting a tree that was slightly below them "Woah! Watch the lightning!" "Stop! Stop." Marker was heard over the comms. "We're at the window." Marker jumped off the side of the building and crashed through the window, falling into the room. "Follow behind my crash if you can."
-
[spoiler]Gotcha![/spoiler] Cylus timed his entrance to minimize the noise, and came rolling through the window. He landed at his feet and quickly rose, pulling one of his pistols from his belt. "Q." he said In response, Q automatically switched on night vision for Cylus' helmet. His view was lit with a green hue, and was able to navigate easily through the dark.
-
"Night vision on." Victor, Brian and Charlie dropped in behind the duo, switching their night vision on The group was inside a storage room, woth shelves through the room and boxes Two Dead grunts were on the ground and Marker moved over their bodies towards the doors
-
"Those ours?" Cylus asks, kneeling in front of one of the bodies.
