I laughed whilst looking over my gun. "Aliens?" I asked. "Really? The chance of a sentient alien species is almost nil."

Morello checked his gun's sights. 'Wonder how those Alpha zombies* are doin'....' (* = 'Zombie' is what Morello calls someone who's so ensured to die, they're basically the walking dead.)

I shrugged. "For all you know they may be saying the same thing. We have no proof, especially since we are the first explorers.."

"Well, at least they're landside." I replied, as I calibrated my HUD.

"Humans are the only thing smart in this un'verse. I'm as sure o' it as I'm sure o' the fact we're gonna die, here."

Morello scoffed. "Eh, they're dead men. Then again, everyone kinda knows that." He made a slight calibration tweak to his gun. 'Still...'

"Though it would be nice finding Sentient life here...I've always wanted to see like some random fish alien guy walking down the sidewalk in New York for some reason...It's kinda strange...Though." Isabella looked down at her gun, examining it for any impurities or faults..

"Yeah? How much would you like it if that fish-man looked at you and tried to eat you while you were still alive? I'm not saying humans are the only things out here," he waved his hand through the air, "I'm saying humans are the only SMART things out here."

Morello peered through his gun's iron sights, firing make-believe bullets at some of the other troops' heads.

I looked over to Mo. "What would kill em? Honestly. If they saw somethin they'd crap their pants, run back for their dropship, and radio in for us."

Morello lowered his gun. "I said they're dead men. Not [expletive]in' chicken-livered. At least they'll put on a good show before they get mauled."

(Could you post which spots are taken and which aren't? I'd like to know that before I pick my squadron.) Name: Micheal Conroy Gender: Male Age: 27 Position: To Be Determind Likes: Technical Stuff, Complex guns, giant space lazers Dislikes: Being ordered around by people who know nothing about what they're doing Appearance:Brown hair and eyes, white shirt, and a red hoodie/jacket Bio: He was more of a technical scientist when he was growing up, but he enlisted anyway. The opportunity to visit another life-abundant planet was amazing. He already had mad skills in fighting, so the Commander appointed him as a researcher. He was to record his findings on a special 'scanner' and bring them back to him. Mike, as he was called was thinking about what the first thing he would see when he got down to the planet, most likely some plants and small lifeforms but, what about larger animals? ...

(Oh, yes, may I add that the guns we use are attatched to our suits so ammo can be read and fed to the gun.) The ship shuddered slightly and the recon vehicle slid slightly disregarding it's heavy chains. "That would be atmosphere entry." I remarked.

"Well, We might not be. There could be some kinda of sentient race out there that actually works together, like, In tribes of some sort."

(Epsilon.) "Ready up for landing!" A voice ahead called. I presumed it was the pilot. I activated my HUD and took the safety of my gun off. I stared intently at the door next to me. As soon as we hit the ground, I would try to be the first out.

Morello spun his gun in a rapid 'rotisserie' fashion. "It ain't the gun, it's the gunNER. 'Seasoned gunslinger with a sidearm could flatten a tender that has the best assault rifle in the biz."

"Given the right strategy and tactics I could picture two or three Alphas bringing down one of those Epsilon tankers."

I just got a bright idea. "Mabey we could run a simulation.... One squad Epsilon versus two squads Alphas? Only the weapons they currently have."

Morello shrugged apathetically. "These guys aren't a damn thing like the Frontliners," he mumbled.

"Well, we're about to land. I'm betting $150 that the first one out is the first guy dead." I chuckled a bit after wondering what would fly out at us.

"yeah, but at least we can program the tactics.". I replied. The thing looked like a chessboard, but twice as long. Six purple dots appeared on my side, while twelve blue ones appeared on his side. A 3D terrain, randomly set, appeared as well.
