General Ardmore ordered Corporal wainfleet and Colonel Quaritch to the military briefing room, Along with the wolf.

Walking to the briefing room with Wainfleet and Quaritch, Nick looked around at the construction, everything everywhere outside was full of machines and workers doing loud work. Beyond that was the walls of bridgehead. As they were walking on the highway it went higher than the walls of bridgehead, you could see the vast forests in the distance, but looking on the outside of bridgehead, the ground was bare dirt and it stretched for miles until the trees stood. This was because of the landing ships 14 years ago. The wolf saw the barren land, lowering his ears and slowly shaking his head "shit.." he muttered.

A human officer lead the two recoms and wolf a large indoor facility, office looking, it stretched into a long hallway filled with desks and computers, finally ending to a larger circular room. Screens and graphs along the walls and a floor hologram system, along the walls of the front side of the large room there was glass windows showing other rooms on the other side.

Colonel quaritch greeted general Ardmore with a salut then handshake, Lyle saluted, Nick stood there with his arms crossed and ears in airplane mode, he did not like the woman.
Pacing around the room wainfleet looked at the graphs taking his own view on it, quaritch stood watching the screens with Ardmore behind him explaining the situation.

Her arms on her hips, "Sullys raids are becoming bolder, more frequent, strikes are well planned, got tight coordination between his ground and air assets, his forces are hitting our outline sights, the mines, pipelines, cutting off our supply chain."

A male officer chimed in. "They hit a mag train two days ago". Quaritch took a breath from his mask then turned to Ardmore, "any intel on sullys base of operations? "

Ardmore turned her head to look up at him, "yeah, bring up the mountains" nodding her head at another male officer next to her with the hologram controls, bringing up multi holograms of the floating mountains of Pandora.

Ardmore walked to the floating mountains "it's a cave system somewhere in the Hallelujah Mountains somewhere". Quaritch followed her looking around at the mountains, Lyle close behind taking his own pace.
"But every time we send our forces up there we take losses. Our hardware really stirs up the hornets nest, we only get ten minutes in enemy airspace they are all over us. " watching the footage of a scorpion ship get taken apart by ikrans, fellow ships in the background are being destroyed and blown up. Ardmore turns to the colonel with her hands on her hips. "Colonel, we believe your blue team will be perceived as indigenous and will not trigger the immune response.". Quaritch kept his hand on his shoulder strap leading to his gun, squinting his right eye as if the lights of the screens were bothering his cat like vision. "And how might we test that hypothesis general?" He says as he slightly cocks his head.  "The hard way" ardmore replies. Colonel pulled a smile at the General. "Outstanding.". "Lyle perked his ears up, "when are we expected to leave general?"

"Right away, I want your team to fly near the mountains and head to sullys link lab. we found a weak signal showing it's there, if you find anything report back, we'll be flying near the mountains on a petrol watch". The recoms we're paying attention to the Generals every word, the wolf however kept his arms crossed and eyes pacing around the room, he stood back far behind when they walked to the holograms, he wasn't interested in the mission but being here he was important, he'd been trained to use his instincts and abilities on the pandorian forest, his hearing was better, his smell, and speed. the Na'vi were better at some things of course like eye sight, they had bigger eyes then he did and they could see better at night, felines always had that upper power over canines. When it came to brute strength he could win, flexibility as well because he was smaller and regularly had to do flexible exercises and workouts, even stretches for the landscape Pandora would have for him. The wolf even had better stamina, able to run a decent speed for a long period of time, if he was in his primitive form it would be a lot longer given the four legs.
