Sergeant Hyram Sachs: [...] So while I may look old—and I may be
old—it’s only because I have twenty-seven years of experience in the army,
and nearly as much as a sniper. I’m still lively and wiry, and I know what
I’m doing. If you’re sitting next to me, I’ll do everything I can to keep
you alive. If you’re on the other end of scope...I can’t promise you’ll see
the next sun rise. Anyway, I appreciate you letting me join you a little
early, even though I’ve technically not yet completed the specialized
training. I know that this is a pretty tight-knit group, so I’ll remember to
respect that, and be humble, and a good team-player. I’ll ask you to be
patient with me while I find my place here.
Reese: This isn’t a tight-knit group. Besides me and Leonard, no one
here has known anyone else for more than a few days. And even then, he and I
measure our friendship in weeks. *exhales* We’re all starting something new
today. Sergeant, you actually have an advantage, because only one of us has
been on a tactical team before.
Anaïs: Oh, me? I’ve never been on a seven-star. I mostly work alone.
I’ve been on teams, of course, but never like this. No, this is all you.
We’ll follow you’re lead.
Reese: Okay. Well, like I was saying, this is new. I’ve spoken to
each of you individually, but now we all need re-reintroductions, because no
one mentioned their new role. I’m the leader, which makes sense. While I’m
in the field, Myka Tennison will be running the facility. You probably won’t
need to know that, but if we call in, it might be important. Leonard is my
lieutenant out there. If I’m ever indisposed, or dead, you do what he says.
Next in line is Agent Altimari. She’s the tactician. She has the heaviest
background in hand-to-hand combat, and strategy. Hopefully we won’t need it,
because a tactician is usually responsible for generating maneuvers for the
whole team, but most of us aren’t properly trained in such tactics, and we
certainly haven’t built a rapport. Obviously Sergeant Sachs is our sniper.
Hyram Sachs: Oh, that reminds me. Everyone just calls me Sachs.
Especially here, I don’t think my army rank matters much.
Reese: All right, Sachs it is. Your spotter is Sasho Dreyer. Sasho,
I’ve told you what that is, but for everyone else, a spotter usually works
close with the sniper, and helps him find his targets. Of course, you don’t
know how to do that, so for now, we’ll just kind of need you to be available
to help the team in a more general sense. If you would like to continue in
this role, you’ll need some of that specialized training that Sachs was
talking about. For now, he was the only one who the boss felt was ready to
go to field. Anyway, our engineer is Micro. She’ll handle the tech. Ophelia
knows her way around a logic board too, so she’ll assist as the technician.
Any questions so far?
Anaïs: Yeah. What exactly is this mission? What are we doing?
Reese: I meant about the team. We’re about to have the mission
briefing, but I wanted to go over this first, so everybody understands the
group dynamics. [...] Okay, then let’s go right on into it. We’ll be heading
to Mississippi—
Group: *groans*
Leonard: Wait, what? What’s wrong with Mississippi?
Reese: I’ll explain later.
