Nadezhda Moskvin
Nadezhda could not help but give a small laugh at Donovan tease. Nadezhda pleased Donovan was able to tease thinking he’d good to work with and provided the aliens didn’t kill him might make for a decent friend. Although she knew better, then get attached right away. After all, even if he seemed like an alright person, there was no telling how well he’d handle the aliens.
As Donovan mentioned the other one in the photo was his older brother. Nadezhda gave it another look this time able to make out a similarity between the two and for half a second made her wonder what it must be like to have a sibling. Although the thought was quickly shoved aside when she noticed Donovan eye the cap in her hands.
“It’s fairly accurate statement. I love my folks. Heck I’d do anything for my father. But my old squad I love them just as much. Even if one of them I’d gladly tie up leave in the bush for the dingos.” she spoke running her thumb of the Royal Engineers badge.
A sigh escaped Nadezhda.
“Well I’m hoping to get along with you all just as well in time. So don’t go dying on me okay. I can fix of thing things. But people ain't one of them.” she spoke sternly pointing at Donovan but giving him a large smile.
Nadezhda was about to speak again she heard someone over the intercom call them to ready themselves for deployment. Nadezhda listening to the announcement intently before quickly putting her cap into the locker and began to quickly put on her armour.
“Will this really stop an alien weapon? I saw those things put holes in car doors whats Kevlar going to do?” she muttered her mind bring up several unpleasant memories. The woman doing her best to bury them deep within her mind.
Once she had everything out of her locker she quick to move to the armour and grab the rest of her gear. Quickly checking it and once she saw everything was in order, she moved into the hanger falling in line next to what looked like to be the squads medic. Giving the woman a glance as Nadezhda heard her speak some language she knew she’d heard before but didn’t understand. But overall she ignored and turned her attention to Lieutenant waiting for orders. Nadezhda feeling a mix of fear and excitement. Eger to prove herself to her knew squadmates and do her part to protect the planet but also afraid of encountering aliens with those strange powers, she simply could not get her head around. But for the moment although afraid she could keep herself calm and in control and she hoped once in the field she could continue to be clam and in control.
