South moved and sat down in the briefing room, waiting like the others, however she was mostly quiet and had become somewhat withdrawn. It worried North, a lot. She’d been in such an odd headspace recently. He thought it may have just been the training, but Iowa said she was fine physically at least. He didn’t have much time to dwell on it, however, as F.I.L.L.S’ voice rang out over the speaker in the room as a large hologram of a ship appeared on the table in the middle.
“Welcome Agents, now that we are all assembled I am able to brief you on your newest mission. This will be an intelligence gathering mission, with emphasis on stealth and lack of casualties. You mission is to travel to the ship displayed, at coordinates that will be pre-programmed into the ship you will be piloting to the location. You will be split up into three teams. Team A will consist of Agents North Dakota, South Dakota and Washington. You primary objective will be to escort agent South Dakota to the main information terminal, located here. The ship hologram rotated and zoomed in on a particular room that became highlighted in red.
“Where she will have to gain access to the data files and extract the information needed. Team B will consist of Agents Carolina, Pennsylvania and Oregon will be in charge of creating a distraction and causing optimal chaos amongst the ship’s ranks should Team A require it. Preferably we hope to avoid the need for Team B, but Team A’s presence and purpose being kept a secret is the main goal of this mission and Team C may assist in this where needed. The final team will consist of Alaska and Iowa, who will be in charge of extraction and ensuring all Agents are to leave the ship in the best condition possible. No agent is to be left behind, dead or alive.”
There was an ominously grim pause after that sentence before she continued speaking. “Agents are encouraged to prepare and meet at the docking bay within the next half an hour. Good luck.”
