((Should I have her go by her real name to avoid confusion?))
Val grinned reflexively at the sudden reply, then remembered that she was annoyed. "Nice of you to take the com-link out of your bag," she said dryly, "How is your ship holding up in the snow?"

"We should have a few lesser missions to develop stradegy, I'm not use to piloting, let alone piloting with others. My weaponry on the Fist is destructive and many to target large groups, I'm more of a heavy hitter. If we do any ground missions though, I'm quite good with a rifle and hammer."
Before Koudo had gotten the Fist, he was a highly regarded ground mercenary. His jobs often included breaking things, distractions, and breaking heavly defended ground bases. His foot soldier skills were good enough to make quite a bit of credits to invest in his ship the Fist.

 ((No its cool. I was just bringing it up because its kinda funny.))
"Well miss, it's going to get buried under snow pretty damn soon." Fokkusu was not happy with her sarcasm. He continues to flip the ignition switch. "I just need to start the engine."
After several dozen times the plasma engines start. They where rather weak though. "Success!" He pressed a button on the console to open the vents. The vents did not open at first. It took a strong blast of air to force the vents open. The same blast of air sent the snow rocketing off Shadow Striker with a big 'poof'.

Upon hearing the word 'success,' Val yawned and snuggled back into her blankets. "Goody. I'm going to leave the com-link on, but try to keep it down unless you actually need help." Her eyes were already half closed. Finally, she was going to get some sleep; there was even a snow storm to make sure she wouldn't be disturbed for at least a few hours.

((Yeah. Don't worry about it. Most people don't even know my character, and if they did, it would be by "X." Although I did just come up with an awesome reason for why he is known by that))
The ice planet in view on his visor, Valeria slowed down so he would be catapulted around the planet. It was big enough that the slingshot effect would work, unfortunately. Or worse, he would hit the gravity well, and drop like a rock onto the planet, ending up with his remains spray painted across the blue-white surface. At least it would be some color, no?
Loading the coordinates, X found out where he was supposed to go. Looking at the planet, however, showed that it was going through one of its daily blizzards, and this one seemed worse than normal.His ship may be protected from the cold, but he really didn't want to be in that storm right now. What to do , what to do?

"Lesser missions first? Sounds fine. And hey," he said lowering his voice. "Just between us three, I have a hideout where no one will find us should we absolutely need it."

 Beware..."I think the mission is a brilliant idea, but we'll need to chose one, I suppose..." Shadow was surprised at how fast the team was established. He looked forward to whatever they were going to do. ...Metaknight has arrived

"Well McCloud's team is allied with the Cornerian Military, so what, are we going to ally with someone else? I doubt they'd want two Merc teams under their name..." he said kicking his feet up and down out of boredom.

"I'm not exactly up for joining Andross, I think he's dead. The only reason McCloud is joined up with them is to gain slight advantages like cost reductivity. Shadow is loaded, we don't need to go under any banner like Corneria and its military. Whoever pays the most and treats its mercenaries with the respect of a warrior is just fine with me."
Koudo was currently doing a weapons study of the hangar while he spoke. What Koudo wanted more then anything else was to learn how to manage explosives. From land mines to RPGs, he wanted to add explosives to his arsenal. He looked in hopes that Shadow had a abundnce of explosives.

"I flew under Andross once, but that was shortlived. I helped stage a rebellion against his forces on my home planet later on." He said jumping down off of the SunRay. "His machine's were weak, but his bio-weapons were incredible."

The winds picked up and the snow fell extremely heavy reducing visibility to near zero. The snow was practically falling sideways the winds where so strong. The air blowing weakly out of the vents could barely keep the snow from burying the Shadow Striker. I guess the conditions could be considered to be a white-out. Fokkusu was too worried to sleep, he did not need any extra sleep any way.

Oull flew around the edge of the belt, looking around for a sign of fokkusu. "Where is he? He couldn't have gone back since I would have seen him on my tracker, so where is he?" He barrel rolled out of a meteors path as he entered the belt to look on some of the plaents close by. "Maybe his radio's on." He flipped on his radio. "Fokkusu, you out there." Only static sounded back. "Oh man, this is soo-" He stopped as he received a faint signal from fokkusu's ship on a planet nearby. "Oh man, that was a close one." He turned his ship and started in his direction.

((Come on, I know you people could be a LITTLE more active... Couldn't you? Lets keep this alive!))
The blizzard was beyond bad by now. You could not see your hand in front of your face even if you tried really hard. If Fokkusu was out in it would probably not turn out that well. Where they landed on the planet, it was getting dark too, making it a really, really cold night. "Holy s**t... It's cold."
The cold air seeps through every seam in the ship. These conditions would certainly make flying anything impossible, but that did not concern Fokkusu as his ship could not fly in its current condition regardless.
Fokkusu started to shiver hard. He slid back in his seat and tried to 'remove' himself from the situation. Escaping in thought, not in sleep.
