"Just give the Sinker in the very front a warning that you're there. Angel Team will probably see them before you, anyway. But keep an eye on them anyway. Any distress call from a Sinker takes priority over your mission. The one exception is if there's an assault force heading for Ebinay." MSG Callahan snapped his fingers. "Ah, this is imnportant. IF there is a distress call from a Sinker, the border is no longer an issue. If the Sinker is in Siberia, you're allowed to enter and go investigate. If it's in Beringia, and you see a squad of ALliance Zoids suddenly cross the border, leave them be. you'll probably we working with them anyway." A mischevious grin crossed the Master Sergeant's face. "And by the way, no one outside of SOG and SOTF know this, but there are times where a group of Alliance Zoids and a group of SOG Zoids will challenege each other to a friendly duel. Live rounds. Real damage. But still just a friendly fight to test skills." He shrugged. "SF pilots tend to get along, even in real combat. Nothing personal. It's simply business."

Jarid just gave an amused smirk at the last comment.
"I swear, at some point, even if it ain't on Earth, these Zoids of ours are going to be used like sport or game equipment..." he chuckled.
"Get one mile from the border, head north, then south, then back to center and then back to base unless we receive a distress call or are attacked. If a distress call is made, the border is nulled and OA becomes a temporary friendly. And Giant-Animal version of Rock'em-Sock'em Robots may occur. Understood, sir."

"And Roger. But don't call me Sir. I'm not an Officer, damnit. I work for a living." MSG Callahan then jumped to attention and saluted. "Relax, Shield. You've been in this game longer than I could ever hope to be." Tobias had come up behind them in his flight suit, followed by the rest of Angel Team, all similarly dressed. "This is Angel Team. Captain Cassandra "Hellfire" Mulhollon, Captain David "Ace" Garcia, and First Lieutenant Troy "Spade" Staples." The members of Angel Team all nodded their greetings. They were still a little unhappy about the whole situation. "Angel Team, this is Sergeant Jarid "Slade" Caymen, Corporal "Heckler" Anderson, Private First Class "Crosshair" Preston, then the other for PFCs, Hack and Slash. Sorry guys, never learned y'all's names."

Johnny pointed at Roland with his right thumb.
"Roland."Roland pointed at Johnny with his left thumb.
"Johnny."Jarid nodded the group, and could see their faces and tell they were unhappy.
"Guess it's true what they say about first impressions, huh?" he chuckled as he looked back at Anderson and Preston.Anderson had gone back to viewing his Command Wolf. He looked back at them and waved before returning, while Preston had also nodded to the group, placing his half-finished cigarette into a tube-like container which was connected to a band around his neck and closed the top. He'd finish it later. "A pleasure to meet you all." he greeted with a smile. ((The Shennanegins will have to continue in the morning, or evening for you. I need sleep.))

"Attention in the Hangar! Patrol number 203882, prepare for departure." Tobias breathed a sigh of relief. "That's us. Load up and meet us outside." Angel Team dispersed, each going to their Zoids, Tobais and Hellfire's Storm Sworders already on the catapault, ready to launch.

Jarid gave a nod as his team dispersed as well, all going to their Zoids and awaiting the command to move as they entered the cockpit of their individual Zoids."Well they're lovely people." Preston mused. "Besides the fact they probabilistic want to attack Jarid for acting like anything but a standard soldier...?" Anderson asked, looking over at the Gun-Sniper."That just adds drama and overall amusement." Preston replied in a chuckle.

~~Tobias Winters~~ "My esteemed regards to the Heroes of the Sky and the brave souls on the ground. May you be forever safe, my love." (( Launch of the Storm Sworders)) As Tobias reached Aisling, the Zoid's mouth opened, and the seat slid down, controls and all. Tobias hopped in, strapped himself in, and grinned as the seat slid back up and the mouth closed. The moment the mouth was sealed, the cockpit lit up, the 3D Radar kicking in, the opaque canopy now a transparent orange. "That's right, girl. We're going for a flight. not long, but enough time for you to stretch those wings." Aisling's head seemed to straighten up in anticipation. "Angel Lead, this is Ebinay. Prepare of launch in 5..." Tobias placed his boots on the pedals, grasped the control sticks, and leaned back fully into the angled seat. It wouldn't help much... "1...Launch!" The catapault shot Aisling forward, the force slamming Tobias back. The end of the catapault was turned up. The Storm Sworder shot off the ramp...right over a crevasse. The Zoid slowly rolled right a full 360 degrees, then snapped open the folded wings, blasting forward at .7 Mach, soaring into the sky, leaving behind contrails.

Alpha Team followed out after them in succession, Preston's Gun Sniper being the last one to move out. It made little sense for a sniper to be out first with eyes in the sky like they were now."Guess now we'll see what the hype of this kid is..." Roland grunted."He's older than YOU ya ********' idiot!" Johnny replied with a groan as they both followed after Jarid who remained silent.Anderson followed after the two Zaber Fangs, as was their formation.

(FINALLY BACK! blaugh ) -Desmond- Desmond waited as room was cleared for his whale king but slowly and surely he eased it into place in the hanger. "About as graceful as a blind bat in a thunder storm at midnight..." He mumbles to himself as he lands with a small thunk and starts to leave the cockpit and passes most of the crew on the way out. "Nice going today guys..."

After a few minutes, FAMT Six came running into the hanger, Bathsheba in the lead with the others just behind her. The whole team immediately went straight for the Gustav, not bothering with formalities and questions. They had been told to move, and so they were.
Bathsheba, thanks to her lead, was the first to reach the Gustav and opened the door and jumped inside. Immediately she went to her team's bench, double checking everything was in order and prepared, squatting to get a better view. All their tools were in their places, and set accordingly.
Not far behind her, the others hopped in.
"We're here, 'Sheba." Michael grunted, last to come in as he closed the door behind himself. "Any clue what's going on?"
"None." Bathsheba half lied. She honestly didn't know why they called in, but Michael's question reminded of her of Jarid's patrol. Are we going for them? She wondered, paused in thought. She didn't see anyone else - or hear - go out. No, no.. I'm just being stupid. Just because I knew he went out doesn't mean no one else did..
"Move, Sarge." Michael growled, gently kicking Bathsheba in her rear as she was still squatting down to inspect their equipment, getting in his way as he tried to sit down.
"Watch it, Michael." Bathsheba snapped with a growl, catching herself so she wouldn't fall from his kick. she then got into her own seat and buckled in, losing herself in thought again.

MSG Callahan came up to the team. "FAMT Six, I presume?" Really...This is what we're sending out?

"That's who we are." Bathsheba responded a moment later, after snapping out of her thoughts and looking at Callahan. "We were called in and told to prepare mobilize, which have done and are ready for." She reported, giving a salute to Callahan.
"And I presume you're driving us? Or are you just checking we're here?"

His eye twitched. God damnit, woman! I'm a god damned master Sergeant. I work for a living. Don't salute me!" Maybe I should start wearing a uniform instead of jeans and a polo..."And no, your driver is being briefed on his route. This is a SOG mission, so he is getting a specific route. And information on your escort."

"Err, sorry, Sir.." Bathsheba spoke softly, slowly lowering her hand. "Just trying to be formal." She was taken back by his anger, but decided to let it go. Higher ranks always seemed to be pissy, like it was traditional to be rude to those below you.
"A SOG mission?" Bathsheba's eyebrow rose with curiosity. "What exactly are we doing? Or even going?"

MSG Callahan sighed. "Call me master Sergeant. Or Sergeant. DOn't care. but you'll find out when you get there. All you need to know is your job. Your driver will know where to go and what to do. Not trying to be rude, but you don't really need to know." ((Nice try. XD))
