Needless to say, Gale was not having the best of luck at the drills.

It infuriated him, especially considering his recent promotion, but considering there was nothing he could do about it (and he'd always had horrid luck), Gale went about his business as best as he could.

Another day, another day of drills. Only this time, Eva didn't actually want to spend her whole day going through the drills, so she decided to mix things up a little by doing drills for a few hours, then some research, and maybe a short break in between so that she didn't get overwhelmed. Seemed like a good enough plan to her, at least.

Okaaaay, let's do this!

Reine's muscles were sore and aching from drills the previous day, so instead she busied herself with prep work. They'd gotten somewhere at least- once the creature had been caught, it could move right in, and probably feel pretty comfortable.

That was, unless it tried escaping, because Reine had managed to figure out some way of rigging the cage walls so they would give an electric shock. A mild one, of course.. hopefully not too mild.

Then she forced herself through drills again, just for an hour. Tough drills were tough... it almost felt like a holiday to go back to doing prep work again.

Rather than trying her hand at the other things, Kat decided to give drills another go. By the time she was finished, she was sure she was getting the hang of it. Better than the last try, that was for sure.

The first four hours that day Jerry DRILLED LIKE A CRAZY PERSON. And actually did better than the whole day before! Feeling proud of himself, he took a bit of a break for a few hours of prep-work, humming happily as he fiddled about with hay and whatever else seemed to help prepare them for... whatever they were doing... before headin' back to drills. He would be a MASTER when he was done, he was sure!

Once more Tori decided that she would do drill again but only for the first two hours since she had done so well at them yesterday. Once that was done she headed off to do some of the prep-work to make sure the creature that they captured wouldn't die as that wouldn't be a good thing at all. It had been Aklin that had suggested that they do that last night since he had piped in that it would be a good idea since knowing that the cage was being worked on. Tori had spent 6 hours with the prep-work, for the first three hours went well especially the last hour. But for two hours she didn't make too much progress until the last one were she made very good progress and with the day running down she felt good that she had made good progress on everything.

Near the beginning of the day, Marcus was sent a text that consisted of one word.

istoleyurVamps
HELP.


She'd taken a look at Bix's cage-work and thought 'Hey, I can help with that'. Her discovery from there was that little Cass hands were not very good at building things when they were sore from her own projects. So she'd spent about two hours making very little progress. Hence the message had been sent out.

iloveyouDIE
Worked on the cage a little bit, Bix, but it has a ways to go I think. We only have one more day to work on this stuff! AHHHHHHH.


And with that panic attack put aside, she ran off to work on prepping for their future-creature again.

"Hm. Good point, we'll need to know its approximate size before starting construction. I don't recall finding that information, but if we account for scaling in materials and enclosure footprint we should be able to draw up a decent plan without knowing exact measurements." Jordan reached down to tap Petra's parchment with a finger. "You're better at this than I am," he said. "I'll go see what I can find out about Subject X's size and strength while you work on the plans - good with you?"

Once Wilson woke up he checked his messages.

Text to Tedan
I’m doing alright. I think I just need to practice it a bit more and I’ll have it down.


However, Tedan brought up a valid point. They should probably work on building the cage as well. With that in mind, he decided to gather supplies for the cage first. Afterwards Wilson stared at the building instructions and scratched his head. Errr…After Gramps’ incessant nagging and a few hours later, he sort of had a trap set up, but they could definitely use some more work on it. He quickly whipped out his phone.

Text Message
The cage could definitely use some help. I think we’ll do pretty decently with prep work since we have 3 life hunters after all.

Bix had spent a portion of the day staring at what they had built so far. The albino hunter certainly no engineer. By the time he had figured out anything most of the day was already over.

The next day, Vanessa found herself moving toward her own department's section of the work. As she hadn't gotten a return text from Tegan yet as to if he needed some help with the cage-building, Vanessa moved onto the next best thing; Her own Life work. She didn't want their captive dying on them. That just simply wouldn't do.

As such, she bunkered down to start on her own prep-work. The first hour she accomplished absolutely nothing due to Volt deciding that it was time to practice jokes about sailors and fourteen sea-sick rabbits, and was just starting to make get something done. Finally she snapped at Volt, who decided it might be a good idea to be quiet for a bit, and the Life trainee got back to work. That first hour after mentally berating Volt, Vanessa accomplished quite a bit. Volt attempted some small talk for the next two hours, earning some mental glares until he actually pointed out something useful. The last three hours were actually a good combination effort for Volt and Vanessa. Volt actually had the insight to point something out about electricity in one of his puns, and Vanessa soon realized, using Volt's extensive knowledge of conductivity, that they could electrify the cage. When her work was done, she sent out a mass text to everyone in her group, which read:


Text to Everyone In Group Six
Hey guys, Volt (my weapon) tipped me off on how to rig our cage with electricity. He said it'd be shockingly effective...I can't believe I just said that. Anyway, how much work have we got done on that cage so far?


Obviously Volt was getting even farther into her brain. She facepalmed after sending the text (she seriously couldn't believe she'd actually just said that. Volt was infecting her, obviously), and Volt was gleeful in her head. She'd said a pun. She's said an electrical pun, even! Volt was so proud of her. So, so proud.

Marcus was still, more or less, stuck doing drills. ******** hated then, but his level of pure sucking at them was alarming. Sparring wins didn't mean he was some champ. No, he was guessing it meant he was lucky. Cass's text got a frown as he realized she would need cuddles later on.

Petra nodded an affirmative to Jordan's suggestion -- it sounded more than just logical, it sounded plausible. "Yes, sounds good. I'll finish up a little more with this, tell me if you find anything," she replied, turning back to the parchment. They'd already got a considerable amount done -- with his idea, they could continue forward without necessarily knowing everything about the creature. Deryk seemed pretty on top of it, she was confident he'd get them the information as soon as he received it.

The next day, Petra woke as she had the previous days, dressing quickly before heading off to work on this mission. Half the day was devoted to drills, although she felt none of the enthusiasm she had a few days before, devoting the rest of the day to the plans for their cage. By the end, she had started preliminary construction, their basic design cut from steel and welded as well as a moon trainee could accomplish.

These drills were killing Deryk. He didn't know how the hell Jordan managed it really. By the fourth day, he was struggling greatly through it all, but he finally had a relatively alright idea of what he needed to do. Even so, he definitely respected their resident Sun Hunter for being able to breeze through it like nothing.

Now he could focus on something else.
