Jake's POV

It was the next day I was up and was following a woman to the Colonel

"I'm Trudy. I fly all the science sorties. And this here is my baby. Hold on a second. Hey wainfleet get it done. We bounce at 0900." Trudy said

"Yeah, I'm on it Capitaine." Wainfleet said

"Vine strikes still loose." Trudy said

"You guys are packing some heavy gear." I said

"Yeah, that because we're not the only thing that flying out there or the biggest." Trudy said then added" I'm gonna need you on a door gun. I'm a man short."

"I thought you would never ask." I said

"There's your guy." Trudy said Pointing to the Colonel I go up to him

"You wanted to see me colonel?" I asked

"This low gravity'll make you soft. If you get soft... Pandora will shit you out dead with zero warning." Colonel said then added "I pulled your record, corporal. Venezuela, that was some mean bush. But nothing like this here though. You got some heart, kid, showing up in this neighborhood."

"I figured it's just another hellhole." I said

"I was first recon myself. A few years ahead of you. Well, maybe more than a few." He said we were going to a armor mech he turned to face me "three tours Nigeria, not a scratch.i come out here." He points to the scar on his face "day one  think I felt like a shavetail Louie? Yeah. Oh, they could fix me up, if I rotated back. make me pretty again. But you know what? I kind of like it. It reminds me every day what's waiting out there." The Colonel said as he climbed into the armor mech I get on the platform we go up so I was still eye level to him "the avatar program is a bad joke. Bunch of limp-dick science majors. However, it does present an opportunity both timely and unique. Clear!" The Colonel said

"Clear?" The people around him said he turned on the armor mech

"A recon gyren in a avatar body. That's a bullet proof mix. Give me the goosebumps. Such a marine could provide the Intel I need, right on the ground. Right into the hostiles camp. Look Sully. I want you to learn these savages from the inside. I want you to gain their trust. I need to know how to force their cooperation or hammer them hard if they don't." The Colonel said

"Am I still with Augustine?" I asked

"On paper. Yeah, you walk like one of her science pukes, you quack like one, but you report back to me. Can you do that for me, son?" The colonel asked me

"Hell, yeah, sir." I said

"Well, all right, then." The colonel said he walked in front of me with his hand on his hips the mech doing the same thing "son, I take care of my own. You get me what I need, I'll see to it you get your legs back when you rotate home. Your real legs."

"That sounds good sir." I said as he walked off I go to the Link room

Your POV

I was excited to say the least you got to go out of the gates today and couldn't wait to see the animals I help Jake into his Link

"Just let Y/n and Norm do the talking." Grace said I go into my Link and connected to my Avatar and put my hair up
