"Ava stop chewing that beef jerky so loudly, I might think we are under attack!"
"Ja vol Hauptmann, disengaging the enemy, over."
As Ava listened to Roland's explanation, she couldn't help but feel a bit hesitant. "Out of one frying pan I suppose...." she thought to herself, glancing back towards where they had come from. Pushing the thoughts out of her mind, she turned on her comms to get her mind off of it. Responding to Reggie, she said, "Well Reggie, it seems stereotypes do die hard with some people. To answer the question...... Pancakes.... Pancakes with a warm mug of beer always bring me to peace after a long mission. Sadly all I have right now is my jerky and the expectations of this.... 'grape soda' awaiting us when we land. Currently weighing options to turn back with that kind of prospect. Now-" but before Ava could continue belittling Reggie's tastes, she was interrupted by hangar on the general comms.
Well, you heard the hangar manager, what do we do? do we find and take out McGraw or do we move on quietly through the country? Im not against the idea of keeping my nose out of other peoples business, but we are Sky Warriors and we have another pilot joining us from a late invite to help bolster our firepower, he will be joining us any minute, his name is Jingo. So team what do we do?
Ava sat silently for a brief moment, thinking. These people were attacked, nearly destroyed, but that didn't mean her group should risk themselves again. "They could be lying right to our faces for all we know... Trying to two vigilantly groups to destroy each other." Ava thought. Sighing, she opened her comms, decision made. "Hauptmann, this is Falke, when it comes to the costs versus the benefits, we're at a loss. They're too many things we do not know about the situation for ourselves, simply going off of what this stranger said. It's really not worth what we would be risking if we decided to support this settlement and even if we do, the rewards will could never make up the costs. At this stage, I believe we should keep going and stay low. Until we have a base of operations to fall back to for repairs and rearmament, we should be avoiding conflicts like this."
In her heart, it was hard for Ava to say this, but she knew it to be true. She only hopped her squadmates would come to the same conclusion.
