Morning arrives and each of the teams wakes to greet another fantastic day in deep space in their tight bunks.

 Breakfast in the Mess is the standard choices. With everyone getting their fill before the briefing and the lunch for their next mission. With little under three months till the final show down with the Invid oill the final show down with the Invid on earth many soldiers discuss life after the war. Many have stated that they plan to retire and live in some grand city here or there. while others refuse to set foot on the dirt ball, even if High Command orders it.


   After Chow you each find yourselves reporting to briefing room A taking your seats as you choose.

   Several of Vultures crew enter taking seats in the back.


GM Note:
   You may all post here when you finish whatever you are currently doing. This will be the next adventure and i will be waiting till the weekend to begin. 

  Lt. Cmdr. Fell stand back and behind the podium waiting for everyone to take a seat.
  The Vulture Crew enter and take the back corner seats and begin to quietly talk among themselves.

  Miriana is accompanied by Matt and Kariza all look like they have been busy this morning working on what. While Matt and Kariza move to the back of the room with the rest of the crew to join in the conversation. Miriana sits in the front left of center.

   Severian, Korvan, Gerelt, Steven, Iphigenia all sit in random spots waiting for the briefing to begin.

  Skyrah enters and takes the seat next to Miriana without saying a word and begins to sketch


  Note: if your a player and I placed you in a seat. Please just post and ignore my placement of your character.

Mirage looks for Karma and if she has not arrived yet she fiddles with coffee until close to time, then grabs an aisle seat in the middle.

Cerise takes a seat next to Miriana, at the front. She resists the urge to inquire about what the wrenchers had been up to, and, instead tries to model the attentive officer.

In reply to Cerise (msg # 4):

Kaarle arrives with Michelle and moves to take a at the front with the rest of the officers.  He wasn't sure what the new orders would be but was certain that considering that recent missions it would be another test of his resolve.  Seeing Cerise and the others he sat down quickly so that the meeting could begin as soon as everyone was ready.

Miriana crossed her arms as she waited, giving a quick nod to anyone entering as a greeting though the gesture seemed a bit awkward given the difference between it and her general body language. She would respond to idle chatter, though making no attempt to start some of her own, choosing to simply sit there and wait for the briefing to commence.

In short: To all that knew her, she was being her usual self.

  She smiles at the others and greets everyone cheerfully before carefully taking her seat. Michelle sits straight looking forward, smiling sheepishly next to Kaarle.

  Striding in Sillia appears to be quite pleased with the universe.

   She accompanies Xavier and sits with the other grunts of Banshee squad behind all officers.

  Karma enters a half minute behind Mirage
getting a coffee before taking thier seats. "Trust you are feeling ok today?" she says smiling.

 Aravea enters and takes her seat a couple spots away from sillia. But still close enough in case she needs to ask a question.

Xavier, finds Sillia and waves for her to come sit with him upon her reaching him he says, Hey kitten, what you've been up to today?

Not waiting for her to respond he grabs her hand and pulls her next to him. And gives her a kiss.

Silas, after getting a good workout in, finally takes his shower, eats something from the mess hall and heads to his bunk for the night.he watched a few movies, before passing out at 6 or 7 in the morning.

He is woken up and told to be at the meeting..

God dammit I just fell asleep he sighs under his breath.

He lazily gets up, dressed and heads out the door.

He gets to the meeting hall, takes a seat as close to the door that he could get. Trying to not be so obvious that he really didn't want to be there.

Thirteen wakes up and gets ready in the morning. He goes with Avarae to the meeting and takes a seat close to her. He silently watches the room as if trying to get some sort of clue as to what they will be discussing.

Mirage smiles to Karma and nods, gets her coffee and heads to a seat with her.

"Fine, why?"  She smirks a little to her.

On the way she pats Thakkun on the shoulder in passing, nods if she meets her gaze.

   Once everyone is Seated Commander Rockatansky eaters. He is wearing admiral two admiral stars. Korvan jumps up and yells admiral on deck. Once all the formal salutes are done he tells everyone to take their seats.

  "Alright ladies and gentlemen. I'll do my best to keep this simple as I have another meeting after this one with Shuttle Commanders and their Veritech squadron leaders." Michelle visibly dis-comfortable as she looks between Kaarle and the Admiral.

  "Before the Mission briefing I have two announcements. First, Lt Cmdr Fell. Has bee promoted to fleet Captain." the group give the polite claps of congratulations.

  "Second, I am afraid I will be shorting Banshee squad of one of its finest. But Master Sgt. Korvan has been deserving this promotion for many years."

  Korvan stands up beaming with pride as he clasp hands with the Admiral, while taking a box with his other. "Thank you, Sir. I'll not let you down.

  I have no doubt Lieutenant Estha, you are dismissed until the next meeting after this." with that Korvan salutes the admiral, the captain then lieutenants Cerise, Thakun and Valentine telling each of them it had been an honor to serve under them before making his exist.

  "This is the final mission before we head back home and rendezvous with the main fleet behind Mars. That right folks after this, its reflex point and the Invid's turn." he gives everyone a moment before continuing.

  "Your final mission on for this deployment is simple and should be boring. You will fold ahead of the fleet to Tokyo three. you will have several days to search from orbit for suitable locations and when you find the one that meets the specifications of the colony needs you will secure a landing zone for the Marcus Antonious to set down and unload its colonist." he give a moment.

  "the main fleet will stay in orbit during the first month of colonization. Your team will remain planet side during this operation. The army of the Southern Cross will have operational command once the UES Apex lands. You will give them fleet support if needed. Otherwise you are on alert status and assist the colonist as needed."

  "you have an extra hour to gather your gear and stow it on Vulture before your twelve hundred hour launch. If there are no questions everyone but Lieutnenats Cerise and Cherkovski."

  Karma shrugs with a knowing look in her eyes at Mirage in reply to her question. She takes a seat next to Mirage.

  Michelle leans over to Kaarle. before she makes her exist. "Please don't do it."

  She gets up and quickly moves out of the door and makes her way to the other members of the squadron. "Everyone ready?"

  She pushes Xavier back. "Your on duty Sargent." she scornfully says.

   She claps loudly when Korvan promotion is announced genuinely excited for him.

  When the breifing is over she makes her way with the others. "This should be a cake walk compared to everything else we have been through. Don't you think?"

In reply to Michelle Grey (msg # 16):

Kaarle simply nods and winks at Michelle. "I'll try to behave". He said remaining for the second meeting.

Thirteen keeps an eye on Avarae as the news are given as he was curious of her reaction considering what she had told him yesterday. He sees Sillia come to them.

"Maybe." He simply answers.

  Thirteen - Aravae blinks and shrugs. She does not have any overwhelming feeling on this planet. Other than she rather not go.

   She listens intently till its time to go.



   As everyone excites the briefing room. There are six other men and women. Korvan is standing there and for those who know him. The Squadron Leader of the Ravagers Lt. Joker is standing by another Lt. he gives Mirage a wink. "when we hit earths atmosphere you and I have to actually compete on invid kills cutie."

Oh my dear kitten, I am always on duty. A little kiss wont hurt anybody. Xavier says after Sillia is done pushing him away.  He settles in for the briefing, all the while holding onto sillia's hand. Not caring about what others think. He feels her fighting to pull away, but he only tightens his grip. He whispers into her ear; you better give up my love, you will begin to make it obvious.

Xavier stands up with the rest of the crew when they are dismissed.

See you back at quarters kitten. I Love you! He shouts as he exits the room. Sensing her sudden horror of such a blatant outburst of personal feelings.

Xavier proceeds down the hall towards the mess hall for something to eat, and then quarters to hear his mate yell at him.

Silas being the usual one to have some sort of crazy unfathomed outburst, was very quite and forlorn.
He sat in the back of the room as close to the door as possible, and when they were dismissed from the briefing, he was the first one out the door, didn't even give anybody the chance to notice him.

That's how he was the last couple of days. Avoiding people, unwilling to talk to anybody, just working out at the gym, and solace.

He thought to himself. Everyone needs a little quite time and a little time for self reflection. Right?

He went to his bunk after the meeting, grabbed his workout gear and headed to the gym for a quickie.

Miriana listened to the briefing, short as it was. She agreed that Korvan's promotion was deserved, as the Zentraedi held a lot of combat experience it would be beneficial to the wings as a whole to see him lead, even if it was no longer on Banshee. She could not fault him in the least for getting promoted out, such was simply the way of things. Having been 'born' in space, she does not have emotional attachments to Mars or Earth other than them being locations that were to be held, and as such had no questions for the briefing. She got up, straightened her uniform, and left the room along with the others once questions had been answered, leaving the briefing room to the Vulture and Wraith COs. Outside, she noticed the small group standing with Korvan, though beyond a nod to Korvan she did not try to get in the way of him getting acquainted with his new Squadron.

She would head to the Mess Hall for something to eat, before heading to her bunk to gear up in preparation for the mission.
