. Final round armoury . Old Harbour . Wensday Afternoon . (Victoria)
Victoria waited as the door opened, looking at Milos reaction it definitely had not worked out as planned. Her nice Suprise of bringing some food over after hurting his had to save cooking had backfired so very badly. First blocking the door and looking annoyed her mind raced and wondered if she had caught him with some side woman, was she the side girl and not know?
Looking in as he moved aside revealing two women at the table, one was Paige and another tall red head both dressed almost like they left a yoga class or somthing. The two women where sat at a table, a glass of somthing clear, overwhelming BBQ smell. Damn... She was hungry...
stuck... Ummm I thought I would Suprise you, bring food... Bottle of wine... After you hurt self... Il call you next time. Save getting cold.. Just thought I'd be nice to you...
Rolling her eyes slightly seeing the two women at table, voice dropping a to a somewhat cold whisper only Milo could hear unless they lip read. Giving a icey glare at the attractive Red head sat there, Paige was less the threat, a large glowing red blip though next to her flashed away at her internal radar. Paige seemed to have some kind of hand cannon the table, a big silver weapon, a gym bag and some team colours she not reconise. If that was her duty weapon, someone compensating for somthing...
Wait she was at the party, yeah the tall red head. She was wearing some dress and and a cloak.. Not many women that tall about.
why me... Fuck you universe. I try to do somthibg nice and this fucking happens... Dirty Harriet, plan wrecker 2 and her sidekick miss ohara.
Just... Call me later when you free of these.. Women...please. Il find a uber or call my sister... She not too far from here. I can make my own way home. Just help your freind and whatever you up to.I got about myself all the time in London.
Oh... These where Ment to be yours... Enjoy hon. I'm starving... So I'm gonna keep the Swaharma. I paid for it anyway.
Sighing and handing Milo the 5 pack of cheap lager tins slightly forcefully, leaning on her toes and giving a kiss on cheek leaving obvious lip stick mark, part for show and part meaning it and turning on her heal throwing up the coats hood more rejected and somewhat hurt than angry.
Heading off slowly into the cold, tempted to drag the diamond on her finger into Milos truck she decided against being a full bitch and waited just outside the armoury. Messaging her sister quickly.
Got a Dave. On way home. Talk later. Vika. X
Calling for a uber she managed to get the driver who had dropped her off waiting not too far away for a fare soon arrived, before departing back to Old Harbour. Climbing into the arriving car shakily from cold and lack of balence on the bad pavement.
Bad night miss, Don, t worry Il get ya home, heater already on full. Lucky, I had not got a new fare yet
Thanks... That's a understatement. Old Harbour... Just get me home...
Looking back to the armoury as vanished with a glance back at the cold closed door somewhat frustrated. A call ahead next time seemed a Better idea no matter how cute the Suprise. It would be a quiet trip, worried what Milo might say or of he even call. The truth could hurt you alot.
10-15 minutes later via a few shortcuts, the driver pulled up at Old Harbour and helped Victoria out the cab, seeing she made it to her door before heading out into the night on a new fare. He was pretty much guaranteed a good rating though.
Flopping onto a sofa with a heavy puff, pouring a large glass of wine and warming the food in a microwave looking out on very end of sunset from the windows out to the boats and river. Sighing and putting on Pretty Woman, it was a easy going film, and always a classic.
Keeping a eye on her phone and waiting for Marilania, she raised a glass to the TV sacrastcily.
Wip... Please let me know if I got anything wrong.
Presenting the 501st "Iron Brigade" Templar Expeditionary Corps
Doctrines
1) Amphibious
2) Mounted Soldiers
Theme
Support formation, heavy in Artillery and support with a large infantry formation mounted on amphibious APC transports, mostly themed around a mix of NATO equipment though is a eclectic mix of machines and weapons. The creator had two ideas and could not decide so both side where built and hoped would work.
History
The division was built slowly over a number of months and years with units adding on growing from a small force in a few cardboard structure on a side table, growing they soon gained tanks, artillery and a few dedicated and meant for mock Z buildings. in small town ranging from cardboard cereal boxes to resin cast buildings and shoe boxes linked be stairs and bridges of wooden cocktail sticks, balsewood and coffee stirrers soon formed.
Months took over a spare room and new buildings built even of wood came, a great statue made from a old buzz light year toy stood in center of a plaza, ringed with its barracks, garages, food stores and a small railway bridge that linked to a training range on a ping pong table covered in flock and a few old second hand war gaming ruins.
The maker of this force at first had little funds and coco pops towers is testament to it, slowly growing its split purpose soon became evident as unsure what to make, he decided to make both. now equipped with fully mechanized forces they used a ramp with raising drawbridge to floor to practice armored formations. Well equipped and armed, the unit has less experience as the owner has not had time to bring the full 501st to games and fought in skirmish games. experienced as small units but not in division operations.
Every mock Z is a trained riflemen, on parade they wear fancy hats, and every unit has its own different coloured and styled hat.
There eclectic, mixed up, rebuilt but the 501st is proud of its growing city, there slow beginnings and rise to a powerful division. Cereal boxes, sometimes basic food. They grew. They gained.
Some joined forgotten in a mock Z building, starved, ate much and soon found brother hood in the 501st. Not everything is new, but they always had rations, later a beer silo and a growing city, bodged, battered and home made. But a city they called home.
The 501st shall rise and conquer battlefield close and afar.
