It was early in the morning when the sun just kissed the sky with its grace, and I was in a war room with Galen going over plans and I was not happy about what I just heard. Joey still had his masks on like the rest of his squad. They decided that they would not be taking them off at all throughout this whole war and right now you could not tell but Joey was scowling behind his mask at Galen.
Joey then sighed and said in a monotone voice to Galen "So the reason why you separated us from your group is because we are not a part of your group, and you cannot tell us what to do without do cause because you are determined that I am there leader of my group? Then you make not since by telling me that my team is going to be sent out on a mission and that we are supposed to meet back up with you here after wards."
Galen just smirked and said in a voice like he won a million dollars "It was not an order it just your choice if you decide not to go and do a favor for me and get this blasted war over, or we could just stay here and wait for the enemies to kill us here hmm?"
Joey hardened his eyes and gritted his teeth and said with a poisons voice "It seems that you are not giving me much of a choice here Galen!"
Joey looked around the room as the sun light of dawn hit the window and he saw that the room that he was in small, but it could hold about ten to twelve people in it. On the walls it was the same as the walls on the outside and the floor was concrete as well that was grey and the walls brown two windows on the front and one window on the right side of the building. One huge flat tabletop made from wood dark oak wood that was the color of a deep brown like the trees. The top of the roof was the same color of the walls and held only one hanging light that was bright that hang low enough so you could have a lot of light on the table to see.
On the table was a map of the area printed out and set up to look like a three dimensional referential of the area we were at and even more than that. On the map there was a red circle that he guessed that where his team was going to destroy this base or whatever that was there. Just then his mussing was interrupted by Galen say something that surprises Joey, and it was that they were getting one more recruit out of the blue in a couple of weeks or so they say. He then said that wherever they are is where he is going to flown in by helicopter to the location.
Joey forgetting that Galen could not see his face and he could not see that Joey had a frown on his face and he thought inside his mind that somehow in his bones that later down the road that he did not have a good feeling about bringing in more people. Joey just shook his head and focused back on the task at hand that he was giving him a headache. Several long hours later that full of planning, arguing, and complex theory. Joey and Galen finally got a corporative plan that they both liked and could agree on. The plan that was going was like this while Joey and his team went and attacked the base Galen and them would move out towards the west a couple of leagues ahead of the attack point towards a small village that only had a couple of people still left in it. They would set up a small little hub base there without kicking the natives out of their homes.
There they would wait for Joey and them to return to them and give them word of anything that could be of use in the toppling their enemies or crippling them so bad that they could not fight back. With that in mind Joey went to get ready and head out with his group who was now standing outside in the morning ray with Ghost all geared up and everyone else was as well and even though Joey could not see under Ghost mask his eyes said it all that he was smirking behind his mask no doubt because he had already got them up and ready to move out in a moment notice.
As Joey and Galen split up and went separate ways Joey casually walked up to Ghost and said in a whisper encase Galen could hear what they were about to talk and continued to walk towards their tent with Ghost following in beside him "So what do you think about Galen's idea or plan as I should say?" Ghost whispered back to Joey as he enters the tent with him pushing the tent flap out his way as Ghost answered Joey question "Well it would be stupid of us not to attack the base and cripple our enemy. Also, it serves a purpose that it checks off our list that while we pass them that we do not get ambushed and surrounded on both front and back sides of a fight." Joey just nodded and started to grab his chest that he had since it was the only thing that was left in the tent since the others already put their stuff in the vehicle.
