The Marines piled out of the drop-ship, the remnants of Bravo Team heading to the debriefing room. The Hell Hounds received a more quickened debriefing. A general walked on to the deck and the Marines snapped to attention immediately. It was General Harper. He had been transfered here after thwe successful second invasion of Stroggos. "Hell Hounds, I'm sorry, but you're going back out again. I have read your mission reports and I have to say you did both the Union Aerospace Corporation and the Space Marine Corps and great favor by destroying that teleporter. Please remember everything you saw on that station was classified and if any leak is given, you will be dishonorably discharged from the Corps." The general said, seeing their disgruntled replies. "We have discovered the planet of Alpha Centurai, about a lightyear from here in this very system. It is harboring the Strogg forces which attacked the frigate and invaded the space station. We are sending you down with the entire battalion. The plan is simple: you will be dropped to a designated primary LZ by drop-pod. All of third battalion is heading down by drop-pod. Second battalion is being sent down by drop-ship after the initial Strogg defenses have been cleared. Luckily, intel from ONI shows that they have little defenses. This will be an easy mission." The Marines listened to this and though slightly disgruntled, they all agreed to take the mission. It was time to get payback for the death of Sergeant Dunn. "Godchild, you are being meritorously promoted to corporal. Congratulations, you have been bumped to First Squad leader. Corporal Meyen, you have been promoted to sergeant. Good luck, Hell Hounds. Head to the armory to restock in ammunition and then go to drop-pod command." <Actions> |

Tomala began to restock his ammo as order even though he didnt want to. Tomala said, '' so much for R&R atleast we get to kill those bastards that killed Dunn. Atleast we will be fighting just strogg.''

Hayek stood up before the General left. "With all due respect sir, most of these men are still to shaken and tired to hold a gun again. Find another team, I'm not sending these boys to die. We've been denied R&R twice now. If you're sending an entire battalion you don't need us."

"Actually, we do, staff sergeant. You will spearhead an assault on their prison facilities and assist in MEDEVACing all the POWs there. Also, you are GUARENTEED some rest and relaxation after this. Two week's worth of R&R." The general said, noting the 'respect' part.

Tomala was shocked at what Hayek said. He though everyone would buck up and just go on with the orders. But Hayek wasnt go easily he wanted R&R just as bad as Tomala. Tomala said, ''yeah sir we are tired we have been throught some shit as you must of heard in the debrief.''

Krause sighed a giant sigh. His face showed he was disgruntled. "Damnit, its like a never ending story. Oh, by the way, let's get LT before we leave. We need to have him crucified." Krause said half joking and half serious. He really didn't feel like going out again right after coming home from Hell, but hey, what was he going to do about it?

"Don't count on R&R boys, something else will come up and they need the best of the best to clean up someone else's mess." He growled as he walked to the locker room, pulling his armor back on. "God it was only worse back on Delta Mesar... And that was because we couldn't find a ship at all to help us..." He sighed then moved to the armory, taking his weapons and ammo then walking to the mess hall to grab a bite before they went back to war.

Hoot let out an exhausted laugh "guarenteed? Hell yeah were guarenteed a fuckin R&R, but ill bet it will be a helluva lot longer that 2 fucking weeks. You trying to kill us or something Harper?" He knew the General wouldnt do anything to him, he had litteraly just gone fought through hell and back for some damn eggheads.
Hoot was completely fatigued, and they wanted him to Spearhead the Assault Strogg homeworld, 'I love the Corps' was just about all he could think right now. He looked over at Krause "Hey Kraut, you get a good look at Satan? 'Cause we are about to meet him again.... Ohh and welcome to the hellhounds" He said as he headed twords the armory.
He picked up "hannah" and took her apart to see how bad she was. She needed to be cleaned.... bad. He put her back together and said "Damn, not even enough time to clean my damn gun." Hoot again crammed every possible pocket and pouch with bullets, grenades, sharp sticks, rocks, and even some gum. He left with Shadow to go grab some chow before heading out on a suicide run.
As he was heading down the corridors, all of a sudden the quadropedal demon slid around the corner and stopped. It pointed it's head at him and began to charge. He pointed an imaginary rifle at the thing, and as fast as it came, it was gone. 'Damn, Im going fucking insane'.
((OOC: Im doing a tag this time because it is a fairly long post))

"Payback time." John remarked. Time to lock and load. He needed a drink, bad. He looked around at himself. Well, no scaring, no permanent physical wounds, just a hell of a lot of stress.

Tomala joked, '' Atleast we can tell the rest of the battalion were hells janitors.'' Tomala tried to lift everyones morale for another battle to save our S.M.C. brothers.

"I'll kick his ass for yall..." Shadow replied and stepped into his drop-pod. Then keyed the comm. "General you just made the worst choice you've ever made." It sounded threatening and knowing Shadow it was a promise. Right after that his pod dropped and he cut off his comm with the Normandy.

Hoot stepped into the pod, he laid his head back. He looked at his rifle "well old girl, what do you say one last time?"
