All of Echo squad had been summoned to the briefing room. Skeleton had walked into the briefing room sitting down, he wondered what their mission would be this time. Spirit also made his way down into the briefing room followed by Cassatopia. Volta made his way towards the room after cleaning his guns, he now had an rpg on his back. 

"So Jinx, what do they got us doing this time?" Skeleton asked. 

"Today's mission is basically a patrol. Due to the lack of ops of your tier, we have to widen all your standards," Jinx sighed. "Due to the lack of ops of your tier, we have to widen all your standards." Jinx stated. 

Spirit nodded in understanding. 

"Why? Because the brass is scared?" Volta asked snickering. 

"Probably because of your antics sir." Spirit would say to Volta. 

Volta would smack Spirit on the back of the head. 

"The brass are just mad I don't do shit by the books." Volta jeered. 

Spirit catches Volta's hand by the wrist. 

"With all due respect sir, you shouldn't slap your brothers." Spirit sneered. 

Volta would wrap his arms around Spirit's neck and dropped him. 

"That's enough!" Jinx snapped. 

Spirit stood back up. 

"What are we patrolling anyway Jinx?" Skeleton asked. 

"You're going to be patrolling a village several miles behind our lines. We have received Intel that the locals are stocking arms, both blasters and slug throwers, to start an uprising." Jinx stated. 

"So we're going to be riot police," Skeleton asked, "This ain't going to be fun." Skeleton rolled his eyes. 

"Tsk as I said, the brass are just mad cause I refuse to do things their way." Volta said with narrow eyes. 

"Sir, can you just drop it." Spirit groaned.

"Finish up Jinx." Volta said. 

"A man from the town has come forward to transport you to the locations he believes the stockpiles are. There is no conformation of where exactly these weapons are or if they even exist." Jinx continued. 

"So it could very well be a trap, and they still want us to go if I'm hearing this correctly." Spirit interjected.

"Your mission is to go to several locations in the town and search for the stockpile.   Local authorities have been alerted to your mission and have agreed to help if and only if you guys are engaged," Jinx started to speak again, "However," he stated looking over at Volta, "They want ZERO unnecessary deaths."

"So, our mission is basically to confiscate some weapons? With the least amount of deaths... got it." Skeleton  echoed. 

"Your weapons art to be set to stun at all times unless you are engaged in open combat. No exceptions, if this is violated it will affect our relationship with the BID. Violation will result in being handed over to the natives for trial and punishment." Jinx forewarned. 

"Tsk, of course." Volta scowled.

  "And no, your mission is to destroy any stockpiles you find Skeleton." Jinx stated. 

Skeleton set both his blasters to stun. Spirit set his blaster to stun as well. 

"How should we dispose of the weapons? Burn them or blow them up? Skeleton asked.
