My mouth went dry pushing the saliva back down my throat, Captain Private Joshua shouted at me. you need to make a call, they are coming. They are all coming, I disengage from my mech suit, I loved this model, the Lucy 50#45 or what I just call her lucky Lou, getting inside one of these city killers of 6 tons of exoskeleton was hard enough and lucky Lou being one of the biggest model standing at 9 feet or ten depending on the ankle thrusters, she was made to fight the Terrormids off but not do get down to look at something as damaged as this time capsule. Do you need a hand, sir? lance yelled at me, grinning at me cheerfully in a way were going to die any minute type of way, subtle lines on his face told me that he was more worried than me, hiding it behind his comical coping mechanism of humor just to get by, I understood we all understood, but now left one mech left and still and a 100miles of deserts with approximate 20 Razak bases on the way being counted, it’s easy to say we never should of got of this ship.
