IC - Ethan Gris - Ulysses Mk II: Ethan, too, had been outfitted with one of the Exo-pilot suits. As he climbed into the Exo's control pit, he observed the various sticks, dials, and buttons that he had become familiar with through training. He was also observing the suit itself, noting that it reminded him--quite a bit--of something...

"Ha!" he said, the memory coming back to him. "This is just like the suits they wore in Evangelion..." Ethan paused, and then facepalmed. "Oh boy, Evangelion... Why do you haunt me so?"

Sighing, he strapped himself in, familiarizing himself with the controls again.

OOC: Done with Midterms! Woot! Now on to posting!

IC-Skyler-: Skyler sat in the pilot's seat looking over the controls, excited to get the chance to pilot one again. The last time she'd been able to pilot an Exo was back at the academy, which now felt like ages ago. As she booted up the machine, Skyler was greeted by something that she'd briefly met while working on the Exos at the Academy.

"Good morning."

Skyler groaned. "Great.... They've put AI in these Exos...."

OOC: Yep, everyone's got AI. +D They're mostly intelligent, meaning not as smart as Cortanna, but they will provide some helpful advice on missions. Each has its own personality so have fun with it! Feel free to name it yourself.

IC - Ethan Gris - Ulysses Mk II: "Is something wrong, sir?" an electronic-sounding voice asked Ethan as he finished strapping himself into the mech, referring to his face-palm a moment before.

"What?" Ethan asked, looking around. Realizing who was speaking, he relaxed. "Oh, of course. No, nothing wrong. Just... bad, anime-related memories..."

"I'm sure we have something for that, sir," the AI said.  Ethan grinned. This was going to be... interesting...

OOC: I'm not sure what to do about Dextrapaw... gonna pretend he vanished from the story xD Also Can i get both ur ranks in the IC heading it confuses me otherwise...
IC - Rowan Mercer:
"Both recruits were apparently surprised by their Exo's AI... Warrant Officer Gris is muttering about anime. Warrant Officer Haus seems to have offended her AI?" Eir sounded confused. "Doesn't everyone train with simulated AIs?"
"Beats me Eir." Rowan said. "What about Sakura?"
"He doesn't seem to be able to active his Exo." Eir's amusement clear. Rowan muttered something under his breath.
"In other news, all systems are green and you have full control." Rowan scowled at his console. "Cradle scaffolding and power lines are clear, Ulysses MKII is free to go. With a loud stamp the Exo stepped out of the cradle and walked into the center of the hangar. Rowan flicked the external speakers on
"Sakura! Get your Exo in gear!" He roared, his voice boomed in hangar and echoed back. He waited for a response and then shrugged. "When you get yourself moving let the Commander know." He turned his Exo to face the two recruits who actually were doing their jobs. He flicked back to the squad challenge.
"Looks like it's your lucky day, Haus. Gris you're on her team now, I'll take Sakura if he manages to get his Exo moving."

IC - Warrant Office(Max)r Ethan Gris - Preparing: "Roger that," Ethan said over his comm, flipping more switches. At this point he felt familiar enough with the control systems again to get started. The only left to do was... He grinned, looking at a console. "Hey, AI, you got a name?"

"Not a proper name, no, sir," it answered. Ethan nodded.

"I think I'll call you...." He paused. "Evan. Evan's good; keeps the 'E' theme going and all." Ethan nodded to himself. "Got it, Evan?"

"Yes, sir."

"All right," Ethan said. He addressed Mercer and Haus again. "I'm ready to go."

IC-Skyler-: "These things don't have names?" Skyler asked.

"This unit is the Ulysses Mk II," the AI replied.

"I wasn't asking for the machine's name," Skyler sighed. "Can I uninstall mine? I don't think it's working properly."

"Scans show everything is functioning properly."

"If I call you Jinx, will you shut up and never speak again?"

The AI was silent for a few moments as it processed what Skyler had said.

"The name Jinx has been assigned to this program."

"Why did I have to end up with the boring AI," SKyler grumbled. "Why do we even need AI?"

IC - Rowan Mercer:
"They are critical to managing the high level calculations that keep your Exo moving and shooting properly." Rowan said. "You also left your general channel on."
"If everyone is settled, I suggest we get moving." Rowan said, flicking the Exo's anti-gravity skis on and racing out of the opening hangar bay door. "Haus and Gris you are team two, you will be taking the Great Albatross on the right, I guess I'm riding the one on the left." The Great Albatrosses were massive VTOL aircraft designed to haul upwards of five Exos and their ammo, or large number of conventional forces and supplies, into combat. They were rather fast for their size and very heavily armed and armoured. They also were designed to drop the Exos from altitude. They were reminiscent of the old Osprey VTOL aircraft of the early 21st Century with a mixture of the broad-winged B-2 Spirit, the Albatross, true to its name could glide in an emergency and the wingspan aloud it to carry quite a lot of weight.

"Alright team 2, all aboard the Beck-spress!" A jovial female voice echoed over the general channel. "You're riding the Grand Alby herself, pleasure to be assigned to you."

"Lieutenant, I thought there would be more of you." A more sedate male followed. "The Hurdle Smasher is honoured to fly you nevertheless."

"Airman Linda Beck and Airman Craig Barnes, great to hear both of you again. Glad to see you got stuck to me again."

"Hell Rowan, it's a pleasure to fly your sorry hide around the middle of no where and then into battle. Wait till you see what they did to my Alby in the last refit."

"I'd love to Linda but we've got ot get going, combat situations don't wait for anybody, even if they are fake." Rowan grinned in his c0ckpit, he couldn't imagine what the expressions on his teammates faces were.

IC - Warranty Officer Ethan Gris - Beck-spress: "Good to meet your voice, Airman Beck," Ethan said over his comm as he and Haus loaded onto the Great Albatross. He fiddled with a few of the controls, messing with the view through his windshield. "So how far out are we headed, ma'am? Or sir--I guess Mercer knows where we're going, too, doesn't he?"

OOC: SO now that I'm done with finals and off from school for a couple weeks, lets get this thing rolling again.

IC: "We're probably heading out to the middle of nowhere so we can safely blow each other up," said Skyler.

"It is not possible to 'safely blow each other up' as someone will obviously be injured in your attempts to make one another explode," Jinx chimed in.

Skyler rolled her eyes. "Just injured?" she said.

OOC: second time writing the darned thing. you might need this too: https://maps.google.com/maps?oe=utf-8&client=firefox-a&q=israel&ie=UTF-8&hq=&hnear=0x1500492432a7c98b:0x6a6b422013352cba,Israel&gl=us&ei=vToOULTVC-joiwKTsoDOCQ&ved=0CK8BELYD

IC- Rowan Mercer: "Eir, open me a channel to the rest of the team. Let's get this mission briefing underway." Rowan leaned back into his combat chair.
"Aye Sir. Unpacking mission briefing." A series of maps and graphs spread across Rowan's HUD.

"Good morning everyone, as of 800 hours today a patrol of several Amphisbaena Assault Skimmers were lost in the vicinity of the Tsafit Junction." Rowan flicked a map into the Projecting segment of his HUD. It showed a T where Highway 25 met Highway 258. Strategically, it was only worthwhile as a way to control traffic flow. It was fairly far from the majority of the GNA settlements as well. A spec-sheet for the GNA Amphisbaena Assault Skimmer also landed in the display, including a  wire frame of the GNA desert tank."Intel suggests it was a lone Exo-Frame but any further details are merely speculation. This close to the Saudi Oil Agency's "Official Business Territory", that means one of three things. First possibility is that this is the lead of an incursion launched by the Saudis or one of the terrorist groups they protect and fund. On the other hand, it could be a rogue Efacer running from Saudi Oil, someone too stupid to seek asylum through official GNA channels. Finally it could just be a scrap bandit, this thrice damned desert is filled with holes for criminals and rebels to crawl into. You will be sweeping the area around the Tsafit Junction in an attempt to find this Efacer and his Exo. You are authorized to fire on any unknown Exo, our goal is to capture, kill or drive this Efacer back over the Saudi Oil Agency's border. A full surrender, including a shutdown of the Exo-Frame power systems is to be honoured." Rowan flicked a couple of new maps in quick succesion onto the projecting screen. One overlayed a four kilometer radius around the Tsafit junction, showing the expected search field. Another was a wider shot showing the Saudi border and several important production centers that were to be defended.

"Eir will now be taking the rest of the briefing."

"Aye Sir. You will notice your Exo's have been equipped with live ammunition as well as a laser-targeting equiped EM-30. The EM-30 is the work horse of the GNA Exo-corps and as you know is capable of firing a wide range of muntions. The railgun technolgoy that the EM-30, and it's family of EM series rifles, employ allows for a wide degree of adaptablity from the same magazine. You have been equiped with a Standard Magazine; the S-mag is capable of producing three type of ammuntion on the fly: Standard, Armour-Piercing and Anti-Personnel. Standard rounds are the most effective at causing damage to enemy vehicles while armour-piercing cause less overall damage and more percise/deeper internal damage. Anti-personal fires a barrage of mini-pellets at high-velocity. All three ammo types are availible by simulation during this exercise. Do keep in mind that using any ammo type decress the total pool of ammunition. You are not permitted to fire your live ammo without the express permission of Lieutenant Mercer or Commander Bryant. You are permitted to use your Vibar-dagger should you need to, however in combat you are to keep it deactivated to prevent damage to the Exos. During this exercise Mercer will be playing the part of the unknown Exo, should you push him out of the 8 kilometer wide circle on it's eastern side will we annouce that he has been pushed to the Saudi border. You will deploy in two hours, the same amount of time that has passed since the fictive ambush. Good luck." Eir was more stern than Rowan had been, somehow coming across the senior officer in the briefing.Rowan would be deploying now to give the rookies a two hour tracking lag.

"Lieutentant, we are over the Tsafit Junction now. Prepare for deployment." Barnes' voice echoed in Rowan's Exo.

"Right." Rowan replied, sitting up and locking himself into the combat chair.

"Log: Now deploying Lieutenant Rowan Mercer of the third TERA squad on TERA Training Operation: Amphisbaena Slayer." Barnes stated formally, as GNA procedure required.  "Have fun Mercer" Rowan grinned as a sense of weightlessness settled over him. That last sentence had been all Barnes. His Ulysses was plummeting through the sky, having been dropped by Barnes at the appointed moment. It was only a few seconds later before Rowan grunted against the sudden drag of the a-grav sleds slowing him down. With a solid wump the Exo landed in the desert, it's shocks taking the majority of the sudden stop, leaving enough energy to knock the wind out of Rowan briefly. He slammed down the skids and raced off across the desert.
