Meet the crew.
"This is your future squad. Their names are Lio, Lulu, and H̷īrk̷."
"For this mission you are required to eradicate 5 Terminid nests, once you're done place the flag and get to the extraction point. You may also collect samples to earn super credits. Used to get new armor weapons and Meks."
"So Maggots! Are you ready?"
"Sir yes sir!"
"Good. Now the final step of your training is to enter that pod, and fulfill your destiny. Good luck cadet."
*The four of you all enter the pod.*

What do they mean on the other side? Wait a minute... It's getting cold isn't it.
As the cold envelopes your body. Slowing down your brain. Or is it your heart that's slowing down, and just before your heart stops the freeze bottoms out. Still just cold enough to keep you frozen.

The door behind the large appliance opens with a hiss. You blankly walk through the door as the dim red lights illuminate the path.
"Welcome to the drop ship. Your code names have been decided."
"Lio you are now Delta, Lulu you are Gama, and Hirk you are Beta. Y/N you are now Centra."
"Be warned if any shall speak of treason you must. No matter what. Put them down."
With the final commanding tone he starts walking to a command panel. In the process the three including you step onto a platform. You then get taken down to a lower level. Your final step into your new life. You enter the droppods.
Fooosh kulnk cssssh pop.
<. Remember cadets, every day is a good day to die for democracy.>
In the very near distance you can hear the roar of a Terminid. It takes less than a second for them to start running over the edges visible in your visor.
"Delta! Throw the grenade!"
Delta: "DIE YOU STUPID BUGS!"
Fooosh..... Dink dink... BOOM💥.
The explosion lights up the dark sky as the bugs screech in pain. Green blood that acts a slime gets all over the surrounding area. Still they press on not fazed by their brethren's deaths.
