Bronco team sit inside Thunder-2's IFV. Poppy sits towards the back of the IFV planning on being the first out as he always is. He wants to lead these men into battle and feels it is his place to be the first into the combat zone. Across from him and one seat up sits Archer with his rifle. He seems to be focusing on other things as Gunner and the Rookie talk. The Rookie seems to chat a lot. He knows how to handle his rifle though. To the LT thats all that matters. "Man Nickelback is shit these days! No one even listens to it anymore" The rookie said
"Yeah man it's all about that damned dubstep shit." Gunner chuckles a little "I Bet you like it too
Rook: "Hey i am not saying i like that stuff. I am just stating what kids are all about these days." Poppy then looks at all of them as if telling them to shut the fuck up. They of course comply with the look. The rookie opens his mouth again "Where we going Poppy?" Poppy looked at him and leaned to his right side to speak over the engine.
"Were heading north for what i dont know. I am sure we will get briefed when we get to our destination though." The rookie nods to him and goes back to looking at Gunner who sits across from him. The LT is hoping they can get out of this shit hole. His men have seen enough of this war and are nearing breaking. He knows they are going to get put back into combat though in his heart. The rookie use to be a kid who talked about his hometown and never even uttered a cuss word in his life. Now he looks as if he is 34 and acts like he has been cussing since he was 7. Archer has seemed to withdraw from everyone else seeing a lot of his friends in other units die in this conflict. While gunner maintained his cool. He had seen a lot of action in the past and it didn't seem to phase him much. Poppy on the other hand was strained. He had to keep his cool around the men. Yet right now he wanted to find a corner and just hide. Hopefully though their new assignment will be easier than the last one.
