I was refreshed with energy. Anger and revenge running through my veins gave me a rush of confidence as our pelican dropped me off at the outpost. These soldiers must go through a lot, looking at their tattered landscape.

"No Caboose don't shoot yet!" An aggravated, but familiar voice echoed.

"Shoot? Ok" I heard a gun discharge and a bullet flew next to foot.

"Dammit Caboose! He wasn't even fucking moving!" The familiar voice echoed again.

"Yes he is. Look Church" a voice said that in guessing was cabooses.

He must have been referring how I dropped my gun and put my hands up.

"I come in peace" I said trying to make it sound as least threatening as possible.

I heard caboose whisper "He must be an alien."

"Blarg blarg honk blarg" caboose started saying. I realized it was directed towards me.

I put my hands down and put one on my forehead. These soldiers are definitely not what I was hoping for.

"Shut up guys I got this" a new voice chimed in.

A turquoise soldier walked out and stood about 2 feet in front of me. His armor was the same color as Carolinas.

"What's your business here, man?" He said.

At least they weren't hostile. But now I had to explain everything to them, and I bet at least a few times over.

"I am from project freelancer, an elite group of soldiers. My names Washington. Our business is to protect civilians and create-" the turquoise one cut me off.

"We don't care. Get to the goddamn point already." He said impatiently.

"You guys, are coming with me on a dangerous mission" I frowned. I didn't want these guys. Why did they send me here?!
