The Story of Damien the Great {[DISCONTINUED]}

Plans

"Can you all guess what team you're on?" Niani asked.

No one raised their hand. I didn't know of course, but I hoped and prayed I was on Bravo team.

"We're on Bravo team! The other fleet that everyone else went to is Alpha." She said.

I was crying tears of joy on the inside. My joy must've leaked out a bit because Taylor was giggling at me. I blushed slightly and just shrugged her off.

"Now that I have briefed you on our most biggest project, I must now teach you everything you need to know before you ship out to space." She went to the board and power it on. It big bold letters it showed SOTC Ranks. "Can anyone tell me what rank you all are?"

A girl raised her hand. "Private Astronaut."

"You are very correct. You are all at the bottom of the food chain for now, but that will soon change. There are many ways you can rank up. One way, is join be in SOTC for 9 months. That usually takes to long and it only promotes you 1 rank. That's why people choose the 2 option. Missions. By going on small missions, you can rank up to 3 ranks based on the grade of the mission. The are 3 grades; Grade S, Grade A, and Grade B. Grade S will immediately promote you 3 ranks. Grade A will promote you between 2-3 ranks. And finally, Grade C will only promote you 1 rank."

I raised my hand.

"Yes Damien?"

"What type of missions are there?" I asked.

"Well, good question, lets see here.." She went to her desk and pulled out a book. "Missions consist of aiding UNSA personnel, protecting a convoy, infiltrating a enemy base or point of interest, and a lot more."

I nodded. "What mission are we allowed to do?"

"Right now? None." Groans were heard around the room. "Just hear me out guys. You have to be trained first, to make sure you don't die or sabotage the mission."

I guess that made sense. Mama looked at her watch, then the clock.

"Well, I guess I can hand out your schedules. You have fives minutes until we break and go to lunch. Then you'll head to whatever place you have on your schedule."

She handed out everyone's schedule and I looked at mine.
