G&K Base-Commander's Room S16, 1510 - 5 minutes until departure

Marcus P.O.V.

Goddamn it. First I get them a call, and now out of nowhere, I am being summoned by the American Special Forces. Is there already a war breaking out? I thought they were dealing with the Forgotten Army. So many questions and not enough answers. I don't have room to breathe. I hear the door open and I turn to see who is at the door.

Helian: "You should be on the helipad right about now."

Marcus: " I know, I know. Everything's just hitting the too goddamn quick. I still need to talk to AUG and everyone else... But I'm afraid that I won't have the time for it... And the Sky watching... Damn it."

Helian: "I can assure you that your T-Dolls will be taken care of to the best of our abilities. "

Marcus: "I appreciate that Heilan, but that is not what I am worried about..."

Helian's expression lowers at that last comment.

Helian: "I... I see."

Marcus: "It's one thing to up and leave for a classified mission that requires your attention. It's another thing for a Commander to up and leave without an explanation to their comrades. Please, do me a favor and at least explain to my adjutants the situation at least."

Helian: "... For your sake, I will at least inform them of that much, but only them. We are not ready for others to join into this conflict."

Marcus: "No words can express how much that means to me. I will get going now... When I'm gone, find Aug for me. They'll know what to do from there!"

Helian: "Wait.. what is that supposed to mean? H-hey!"

I couldn't hear what she was saying. All I know is that I needed to get to the Helipad and fast. After running through corridor after corridor, I finally make my way outside, and just in time. The Goshawk Taylor mention arrived and swiftly landed. The back door to this Osprey opened and a man appeared from the back.

JSF Soldier: "Are you Commander Marcus Crane?"

Marcus: "Yes, I am."

The man hands me a tablet and salutes me.

JSF Soldier: "Welcome aboard Commander. Colonel Taylor has issued a briefing for you on this Tac-Pad. Please examine its details before our next destination."

I nod towards the man and then look out at the base one more time. I don't see as many T-dolls out in the open. I check my clock and the time, and it's 3:15 pm. The girls are in the middle of shift changes.
