Welcome to Gaia! ::

About half a mile away from Flare Element was a female figure whom seemed to be struggling with something while running in their direction. She was holding two EV 47 laser pistols in her left hand while unzipping her white suit with her right, revealing and equally snug black one.

Damn, I'm going to be too late She thought, slowing down a bit to get her legs out of the suit. She folded it up with her one free hand and threw it to a random marine that was walking by, whom caught it and looked at the girl, confused. "Keep that safe for me until I get back," she called as she ran past him. The marine just gave her a small nod, not knowing what just happened or who the girl was. She then strapped the two EV 47s to her thighs and started sprinting.

"Captain Hendlow," She called, flailing her arms frantically to get his attention as she got closer, "Don't leave without me!". As she reached her destination and slowed down her feet lost traction with the ground and she fell backwards on her backside. But she quickly got back up and shook the captain's hand, pretending nothing just happened. "Hi," she gasped, vigorously trying to regain her lost breath from all the running "My name...Is private Meigan....Eevane." She stopped for another deep intake of oxygen. Her blonde hair was all awry from the running, and her face red from the blood cells rushing to return the lost oxygen to her brain. Then she spoke once more, "I was just wondering if I could possibly join Flare Element on your black ops mission?".

"Yeah, I feel that way sometimes about being in the field," Clarissa said in reply, "But the is mainly because I get anxious when I am around a lot of people, so when I am in the field I feel very calm." Even now, part of her was wanting to be back in the field and away from the turmoil that was this medical tent and this camp. The only reason the other part of her wanted to stay was because of Steven. "Well, how about we not think about things that are, at the moment, out of our reach," she said, giggling a bit, "What thing do you do for fun when you are not around your fighter?"

{{OKAY! moving along post!}}

Garret nodded in compliance with Meigan's query, and hopped onto the waiting drop ship. Soon, All of flare element had followed suit, and the Ship took off, heading towards a weak locator signal that was Still Sehene. they would arrive in about ten minutes, and a small beep warned them that they were passing enemy lines. Several tense minutes passed as everyone held their breath, waiting for artillery and anti-air to start pounding them, but it never came, the stealth worked, and on they flew. Up ahead, they could see the glimmer of the Drathonian stronghold just above the treetops. Their target location several clicks before that. As the signal of the Spy's location drew nearer, it became clearer. Soon, Still would be able to notice a small noise as the Drop ship hovered overhead, confirming the location with several different people before hovering around to find a suitable landing spot.

Being in the middle of the forest, there weren't any landing spots in the immediate area. No worries, of course. It was a hovercraft, after all. As the bay door opened, Private Kwon tethered himself onto his repelling line. They were brushing against the treetops now, and it seemed so easy to just jump into their branches. The lights in the ship faded down, indicating that the cloaking device had been engaged. The squad's HUDs clicked as the captain spoke over it. "Alright, Flare Element. This is your drop zone. Maintain radio silence until you need extraction. We'll set up a rendezvous point. Unless you call early, we'll be back at 2300. Don't be late."

Once on the ground, Hendlow smirked and hefted his TOR-S. He was going to enjoy this weapon and he was definitely looking forward to blowing the hell out of some Drathonians. It was just a matter of time. "Alright, this is how we go: Kwon, Ruth, Sehene, Mortego, Eevane, and I have the rear. We move quick and quiet-like. If you see lizards, you call it. We kill anything on sight while en-route to the first bomb site. I'll say the word if that changes. Keep silencers on. Understood?"
After the round of, 'yes sir's, he turned to Sehene. "If you have any medical needs, talk to Mortego," he gestured to the medic. "We don't move until you're ready."

((oh hay guys..remember that Sehene is in full lizard getup, so she probably is slightly intimidating looking to ya’. I dunno if you realized that in your posts, but it doesn’t look like it XD))

She squinted to see the five marines land on the ground, and stood ready to greet them. She nodded with what she hoped was a smile towards them; the Drathonian skin was rather thick, and emotions barely registered. She listened to the captain’s orders, and was extremely pleased to hear of a medic. She turned to the medic ‘Mortego’ and grimaced. “My arms been hurt...” She said, looking to the bloody appendage. The wound was rather obvious. She shuffled a few steps towards them, her tail dragging across the ground and nearly hitting one of the marines. “Ah! Sorry!” She turned to him and apologized profusely.

She cringed lightly as the gauze rubbed against the tender skin, but sighed as the gel seemed to 'cool' the stinging. It still smarted quite a bit, but she was glad to have to have it covered and on it's way to health. "Thank-you very much." She smiled as she thanked Mortego quickly, and then turned to the Captain. "No thank-you sir, I am ready to continue with the mission as soon as possible." She nodded briskly.

Kwon checked the barrel of his shotgun attachment one more time before nodding and taking up point. He was wearing his infrared goggles with their built-in HUD and had taken off all but his chest armor. He was a little uncomfortable with so little protection, but he figured Gallagher could take point naked and still come out alive, so why not him?

Their route lit up on his HUD map. Their target was on the other end of several small Drathonian encampments. He could already make out the faint light of their fires from there. He hesitated for a moment, than started forward, crouching a bit and walking very carefully, his eyes darting about as the wind blew through the forest about him, rustling leaves and scraping branches.
