" Ok troy, you free-falled from orbit a bunch of times before, 96,000 feet till impact. You got this." He said to himself over and over again, the neural link with his northstar gave him near perfect movement with the her. Being able to twist and turn with such Elegance and bliss that it almost seemed like that they were of one being, 'almost'. "Stella-2 the drop zone is 50 meters from our current location, we must begin altering our trajectory right now.

" copy that stella-1 lets see what these babies can do." Troy heard mechanisms and gears moved and adjusted behind him as the titans thrusters were switching to flight mode, Troy was forced at the back of his seat as the gforce kicked in. "shit i thought flying you was gonna be easy but you are a handful heh heh, i like a challenge." Troy grunted while pulling his titan up from the dive, making sure to take steady breaths to prevent from passing out." i can go much faster if its to your liking pilot." She said, "i would love to test you out more but that's for another time, lets kiss the ground first." He soon could spotted the clearing with a few trees scattered throughout the landing zone.

The titan soon fliped over to positon her feet to face the ground, her thrusters dying down to slow her descent. " this Is troy here, we have made touchdown on the planet and from the looks of it im still alive and kicking." He joked. "Good to hear troy, how is it down there?" Valkyrie asked. The northstar landed hard, kicking up mud while slamming into a nearby tree, she quickly recovered and began to scan her surroundings. "Atmosphere seems to be breathable so that checks out and all i see val is woods and more woods." Troy responded. " well that's a good start, i still dont understand why i couldn't come with yo...." She stopped mid sentence and went silent for a few seconds. "Troy we have 4 heat signatures 2 clicks from your position! Im so stupid for not seeing it sooner, they appear to be stationery but you can't chance it." The titan's chassis opened and was greeted by a gust of air within, troy slowly climbed out and landed on the soft mud below. "It's alright val this may be my chance to examine one of the inhabitants up close, im getting goosebumps already."

He turned around to face the northstar. "Stella-1 follow close behind, do not engage anyone here with lethal force. in fact, dont even use non-lethal means either i dont want you accidentally crushing someone. Just stand there and look imposing until told otherwise." Troy said before pulling out his own weapon and switching up the ammunition. "affirmative stella-2 i will be on stand by, if we want to get to the targets undetected then i recommend that we cloak." She said while readjusting her thrusters to holster her chaincannon to her back. Troy smiled followed by a slight nod. "My thoughts exactly love, come on lets gives these kitties one hell of a scare." The archangel's helmet had a built in 3-D projector that didn't had any real purpose to them but just for the looks. Fresh members had to earn their way to getting the modification installed but troy was a lieutenant with 89 confirmed pilot kills while with them to which he was given the archangels true form. A human skull appeared within the helmet to where his face would be, the skull didn't have a jaw and it was badly damaged in order to take on the look of a grim phantom, a thing of nightmares itself. The pilot proceeded to the woodline with his titan right on his tail.

"Tomi can you pass the damn jerky? Im dying of starvation over here." Ariel pleaded. The vulpine diged into his duffle bag with a snort." I swear i heard a loud bang guys and im not kidding this time." He said while tossing the blue scaled dragon a bag of dried beef, she caught it mid air and immediately started to tear into the strips, Letting out a soft moan from the flavor. "You must be hearing things, i knew i shouldn't have let you smoked that stuff that long, you may end up seeing things too." Hunter said with a toothy smile, tomi ignored the timber wolf's little joke and planted more wood into the campfire.

"Tomi nothing is out there but trees and bugs, unless you are afriad of bugs that is." She teased, the fox picked a nearby pebble and tried to throw it as hard as he could at ariel, she sat in place laughing as the pebble went way off its mark, hitting a bush instead. "I thought you were the sports type back in high school, you throw like a girl." Tomi growled at the Dragon, "i did track for 3 years Ariel, you learned that the hard way after you lost that bet." The wolf chimed in while taking another puff of the joint. "Ariel you did say that you could beat his ass all day in school, you should have seen the look on your face when he straight smoked you." She rolled her eyes and continued munching on her jerky, "yeah yeah whatever, i didn't need 20 credits anyway."

All three laughed around the campfire as it illuminated the night. " we are going to run out of wood for the fire soon, so we are going to need more,i brought s'mores." Hunter stated. Tomi quickly held up both his hands in the air, " i did my fair share of gathering when we came here so not it!" The wolf joined him. "I brought the joint, that's just as important. Ariel you gotta take one for the team and get some wood." The dragon looked at both while shaking her head, "you two are useless. Fine I'll go find some but only because i want s'mores you fucktards." Both the fox and the wolf high five each other while the dragon got up from her seat and walked through the woods, her tail swaying from side to side as she moved. "Tomi you gotta take her out to a date or something, she's definitely your type." The fox went bright red from what hunter said and punched him playfully on the shoulder. "Shut up! im getting there, i just need time to figure out what to say to her." The wolf laughed while rubbing his shoulder slightly, "yeah yeah yeah whatever man."

It's been over 30 minutes of hiking, troy's handgun was still at the ready with the safety switched to off. "Stella-1 here, pilot i am having great difficulty traveling through this dense forest, can i switch to flight mode?" The northstar protested. "And risk compromising our position? Hell no, we shouldn't be far from the spot so hold on for just alittle longer stella-1." Troy responded. She did as she was told and followed the pilot through the woods, doing her best to avoid the tall towers around her. All of the sudden he heard hissing and growling noises not far up ahead, " proximity scans show a object moving to our position. Recommend we get to cover and identity the target."

Troy did as the titan instructed and hid behind a tree, "can't take any chances with them." He thought, the noises soon gotten closer until he had visual contact. "holy shit Val do you see what im seeing?" He asked over the comms. "Read ya loud and clear troy and yeah i see what you are looking at, Some type of lizard from what i can see." He was shocked by her statement that he almost yelled into the helmet but gained back his composure. "It's a fucking dragon you knuckle head, a fucking dragon! Just look at it."

The dragon was a few inches shorter than him but was strongly built. Her scales were dark blue that gave off a shiny reflection on the surface, from one angle it's blue but from another angle it's purple. She had her wings folded back only leaving a small portion sticking out in the open, she had flashlight pointed at the ground as if she was looking for something. "I really hope she can't see me, for fucks sake im cloaked! Of course she can't see me." Troy wanted to get a better look at the dragon so he leaned out of his hiding spot only to hear a loud crunch under him. He slowly looked down to see that he stepped on a dead branch, he silently cursed at the thing that betrayed him as the dragon quickly spinned towards the source of the sound.

Troy held up his hand as the light hit him, she let out a curdling scream when she saw a figure that was sticking half its head from a tree a few feet from her. She turned and made a beeline towards her campsite, "shit shit shit shit, we are exposed!" Troy said while pulling up his handgun and taking aim, her wings were unfolding and spread wide out so she could take flight but the pilots trigger finger was faster. The dragon gasped as she felt a hot sensation on her back and right wing, she fell to the ground and started shaking violently before blacking out. "I bet that hurt, shock rounds pack one heck of a punch." Troy joked as he cautiously made his way to her unconscious body, he reached down to pick her and leaned her up against a large log on the ground. "No doubt someone heard that, stella-1 stay here and keep watch. If she wakes then make sure she doesn't run by any means but no killing, i cannot stress that enough." Troy barked. " will do stella-2, i will come to your assistance if you are in trouble." Troy heard her start to move again somewhere behind him but he wasn't gonna wait on her to get to his position, he was already making his way to the campsite where both the dragon's friends were at, wondering what was taking her so long to come back.
