Riley was nigh on seventeen and built like a bear. 6'4'' and 240 pounds, there weren't many who were taller than him. "You ready for your assignment?" the boy asked in his aberrantly low voice as he handed Erik a simple piece of paper, "HQs wanting you out on the field stat. Radio silence on your end, we'll only contact you when we're prepared for the next phase. Get on it." and with that he turned on his heels and left, a number of other papers in his back pocked as he did so.

"Of course." Bailey answered quickly as she rifled through paperwork, "They have a couple days leave so it's not a bad thing if you see them. Anything else?"

Alyse had an amused smile on her face through the explanation until Alex came to the point of Femme X. Immediately her face twisted to worry and soon what distance there was between the two was closed as she removed her biking gloves and tossed them to the floor. Without permission she gripped Alex chin and began examining the boy, her fingers spreading one of Alex' eyelids allowing her a look at his eyes. As fast as it had happened her hand darted to his shoulder as the one on his chin moved his head to the side. Soon enough though Julie found the tell-tale signs of infection as she tilted Alex' head up to look at his neck, a defeated sigh accompanying the discovery. His pink-bulging veins were in a far less inflamed state, the minor amount of Femme X taking its sweet time with his body. "I..." was all she said before she became silent, letting go of Alex with a resigned air, "I don't know if we can help it..."

Each boy nods, Chris automatically turning on his side and laying down with Tom watching in worry. Barry spat on the ground as he stared into the fire. "I guess that gives us time enough..." Tom mentioned, though there was no excitement in it. Only fear as he too layed down, "I'll see you...guys...in the morning." Barry silently stood up and looked to the other three boys with a grimace before he turned around and walked into the woods without a word.

"Well what do you mean?" the inspector asked as she finished up her double-check of Julie's belongings, her eyes drifting to the baggy clothes Alex had left, a couple pencil scritches marking on her notebook, "If you're asking about normal girls, I guess it's just that...we're better." she said, taken back by the question until she noticed Julie's spacing out. "I guess its something I don't think about. You ought not think about it either and just be glad that you are one."

Each piece of equipment, as different as it seemed at first glance, came together like a perfect puzzle in the mechanic artist's hands forming exactly that image in his mind. From Isaac's workbench he could hear the rumblings and clattering of plates and other such foodstuffs.

There were plenty of bathrooms for both genders in the hotel, though each and every male bathroom had been converted into a girl's bathroom, each urinal shattered to allow construction to put in more standard toilets at a later date. The map had everything Damian could want, each section of the battle map layed out in brightly colored, bold letters.
It's not about how much dough you make -- it's about how delicious a pizza you eat at the end.
