Sarah hopped off the truck and looked down at the tracker. "Darn thing! How am I to understand if her truck made it?" She looked around for the strange girl, hoping she made it, and that she knew where they were to go.

Jazmine slowly became aware of a low rumbling. She opened her eyes and sat up. where am I? she wondered. Then the memory came flooding back. She was in a transport truck, trying to get to her training base. The rumbling was that of the truck moving. Jaz checked her watch. Good. She had only been unconcious for a few hours. She flipped open her tracker beacon and turned it on. She watched the small screen as her green dot approached the smaller red dot on it. 40 miles.............30 miles...............20........They were almost to 7 miles distant when the truck took a turn. She watched intently. Yes, they were definately getting farther apart now. She picked up her things, opened the door, and jumped out, letting the door swing shut on its own let them wonder about that one she smirked to herself.
Jaz stood up, dusting herself off and blinking in the sudden sunlight. 7.48 miles, the screen read, pointing in a north-eastern direction, so Jaz set off through the sparse pine trees, unaware of the binoculars fixed on her.

Yelena's eyes glinted with mirth at Roy's response to her comment and also at his arrogance, but no emotions showed on her face other than that. She had not been totally thrown off-gaurd by the stop, but the lurch made her a bit uncomfortable... her stomach was not used to such lurches. She gets up off of her crate and jumps off the truck. She also had nothing besides what she wore and her water cantine. "Why are they all giving us the same dorm, I wonder?"

Rylond could not quite understand the dorm issue either, though he didn't say anything.

"We are soldiers now, we don't get any privelages like seperated Dorms."

"IF you want, I'll keep you company to make sure no one tries anything..." Roy remarked to Yelena with a smirk, knowing to stay a good ten feet away before making any sort of remark...

Rylond smiled and approached Roy from the left until he was right beside him. "Yes, meaning..." Rylond then put his right hand on Roy's shoulder and squeezed it tightly and kept doing so until he was certain that Roy could feel slight pain. He then turned his head to face Roy, smiled once more and finished his sentence. "...No one."
Rylond glared at Roy for a moment and then released his hand from Roy's now most likely shore shoulder. Rylond then walked ahead as if nothing happened.

Just as Rylond began walking away, a faint humming noise echoed throughout the complex. "Strange..." Thought David, as he thought of all possible explanations...an attack?
Sirens whined the loud annoying pitch they were designed for. LOUD sirens. These particular ones were made for two purposes: one, to let all the local people know of an incoming hurricane or tornado. Or two, an air raid. And David didn't feel any wind.
"Come on! We need to find shelter!" David motioned his arm towards the closest set of stairs. He dropped his bags and sprinted. Hoping the other followed.

Roy wrenched his shoulder away as Rylond released his grip. "Some people can't take a joke..." he muttered. Suddenly as the alarms sounded, he flinched, holding his hands over his ears. "What's going on?!" he asked loudly enough to be heard over the sirens, though he didn't waste time on idle talk. They could talk while they fled for their lives.. or afterwards. He dashed over to David, not needing to be told twice to get the heck out of dodge.

Yelena had kept her eyes ahead of her while the two boys had spoken. She did not wish to show them that she was interested in either... that would mean something else to worry about while she was here. And since she now was in dorms with these boys, she needed to be sure to keep emotionless. The sirens wailed, and she flinched slightly. She was used to loud noises... but not THIS loud. She put her hands over her delicate ears, her face scrunching up slightly in pain. She saw David's mouth move, but she could not hear. Instead, she followed him. She figured that these were air raid sirens... but why on earth would someone attack here... in what seemed like the middle of nowhere?

Jaz could see the complex by the time the sirens went off. She broke into a run, but the doors clanged shut before she could get there. She knew only a fool would try climbing the fence when everyone was expecting an attack. Instead, she climbed high up in a tree. From there she could see what was happening without having to get recklessly close to danger.

"We're here! We're here! We're--AHHH!" Nicole screamed as the siren went off. "TOO LOUD! TOO LOUD!!" She sprinted after the boys with her hands over her ears.

Yelena looked over her shoulder. Doors were closing all over the complex. This really was happening so soon after they got there... She rolled her eyes at the sight of Nicole. This was proving to be a very interesting fix she'd gotten herself into.

"What on earth's going on man?!" Roy shouted at david over the alarm, trying to get an answer out of him as they ascended the stairs.

"Do you here that humming? Yeah, it's a little hard because of the sirens, but that is the humming of enemy air-ships." David stood at the bottom of the stairs, making sure everyone else got on before he ascended. AS he helped them all up, he looked up. The clouds seemed to be growing...or getting out of the way. 5 huge air ships, completly covered in weaponry and shields."Oh yeah, that's definately air-ships. Dropships..."
