Chapter 1 Prepare to Drop

Start from the beginning
                                    

Buck: Pods. Now.

Amethyst: You heard the man!

At their COs command, the ODSTs put on their helmets and began to gear up for their mission. . . Meanwhile, the blonde partner of their CO traced the clearly off regulation armor belonging to Amethyst.

Dare: That can't be. . .

Buck: Best to not ask.

Dare: They all replacements?

Buck: This many years into the war? Who isn't?

He began to step towards his own pod, but turned back at her next words.

Dare: At least they listen.

Buck: To me! And they're not gonna like what they hear.

Dare: Orders are orders.

Buck: Come on, Veronica. What can possibly be more important than that carrier?

She shoved a finger into his chest.

Dare: My orders. And Buck? Call me captain.

Buck: . . .

Dare: I'll pass on that dance. But you can show me where to sit.


Elizabeth "Amethyst" Rose lifted a Suppressed Submachine Gun from the weapons rack, attaching it to her rear before grabbing a Silenced Magnum and placing it on her hip. 

Amethyst: Something tells me I'm not going to like this "Veronica."

Sarah E. Palmer already had a pistol at her side, and was currently loading shells into her Shotgun.

Palmer: You don't seem to like command at all.

Amethyst: That's because I don't. Especially not when they're ONI. . .

Not too far away was the rest of the team.

Michael "Mickey" Crespo, began to load missiles into his Rocket Launcher while eyeing their new CO.

Mickey: What the hell kind of armor was she wearing?

Lazily lounging back was Kojo "Romeo" Agu.

Romeo: Dunno, Mickey. I wasn't looking at her gear.

He glanced aside to Taylor "Dutch" Miles, who was holding up an SMG.

Romeo: Pfft. Seriously?

Dutch: Well, we're gonna be close quarters.

The Sharpshooter scoffed and grabbed a Shotgun and shoving it toward their heavy weapons expert.

Romeo: Exactly.

Dutch shoved the weapon away as Edward "Gunny" Buck approached along with Veronica Dare.

Buck: Second to last, right next to mine.
