It was another day on Rhodes Island. I was helping Medic carry medical supplies to the Hangar. We were going on a mission. Yes, I dont just stay on the Ship. We were going to one village, who need help. From what we know on the way their might be dangerous as Bandits roam the Area.

Still we'll go, what else?

"It's been a while since we both went together." Medic said giving me a small smile.

"It has."

We were about to go around the corner when Operator Provence came running nearly bumping into me. I dodged to the side as I nearly lost the package in my hand.

"Sorry!" she yelled before continuing to run away.

"Whats going on?" Medic asked me to which I just shrugged.

Just a second later someone else came around the Corner. It was Red.......of course.

Medic and I turned a bit nervous. Medic knew the assassin, someone with more kills then she could count. A monster of sorts. To me? Someone who doesnt know she exists herself. Dont get me wrong I'm still scared of her, as she could easily kill me, but the fact about her and "Grandmother" puts a bit of pity in the mix.

"R-Red what are you doing here?" Medic asked.

"Red follows Provence. Touch her Tail."

Ah now we get it. Even though no one should speak about it, many have seen Lupos avoid Red for some unknown reason. Well it had to do with Grandmother and her being a Fang or whatever. That's top secret so nothing will leave my mouth.

"I see. Well I dont think she wants that." I told her.

"Why?"

"Because her Tail is special to her. What would happen if someone touched something special to you?" I explained to her. She seemed deep in thoughts before running past us without another word from her. 

"How can you be so relaxed talking to her? She.....Amiya did say we see her wrong but she's still super strong and works right under Dr. Kaltsit." Medic told me as we continued on our way.

"No she still makes me nervous but its not like you cant talk to her."

"....Wasnt this the first time you talked to her?"

"....Yes?"

"This is always like you. Everytime you talk to an Operator here you know them even when only a bit. How do you do it?"

I shrugged my soldiers at her ready to lie. "I dont think so maybe I can just read people?"

"Maybe, but lets talk about something else. We need to hurry."

We steppet up our speed as we moved to the Hangar. When we arrived it seemed like we were late, everyone else was already here. When we were told our Squad for this Mission we were.......surprised to say the least. 

When we moved to the car, Medic let out a tired sigh. "I dont wanna sound mean but this wont work well."

"I get what you mean." I looked at our team. Lappland, good start. Mousse and Aciddrop. A weird bunch, but Rhodes Island is very weird itself. No Defender as Lappland will just do whatever. Me with both sword and crossbow, because why not?

"You're late." Aciddrop said.

"Sorry we had a run in with Red."

"Ooh you better keep her away from me. Ugh! Still I wanna fight her." Lappland was her aggressive self. Insane? Maybe?

"Let's go. Wait who's the Leader of this team? I dont think its Miss Lappland here....no offense."

"Oh? I can lead perfect better then Texas." (A/N: Dont know if this her accurately will use this here to try her out. Her obsession with Texas is caused by her Oripathy right?)
