Alex stare blankly at the soldier in front of him as he searched for something to say. " What?" He eventually asked blankly. To be fair it was still so early in the morning the sun had yet to breach the horizon an he had woken up to the man before him rapping fervently on his door. He ha been with the small army for many years now and although he wan't a particularly high ranking officer many of the soldiers here knew his face on sight while he knew so few of theirs.
"I said," The soldier started, "You are to report to the location enclosed in here." He said as held up a large brown envelope.
"Says who?" Alex asked frowning. The solider just shrugged and handed him the envelope and Alex dismissed him before closing the door. Inside the envelope were to sheets of paper. One was a simple map with an X marked on it. Alex guessed what that meant. The other was a page of writing that made him frown.
Objective: The Landing pad.
You and several other recruits will undertake a top-secret mission. This is unknown to the general populace and the majority of people who do know will be meeting at the enclosed location. Each of you has been recruited for a specific reason. You are all vital to liberating the human race from the plague that is commonly known as the ETs. None of you will know who else will be in the team until you meet at the aforementioned location. Your objective is simple. The Ets have a landing pad a few kilometers west of where you will be meeting an you will all capture it and hold it under our control until reinforcements arrive. None of the reinforcements are to see you under any circumstances so when they arrive you are to leave with haste. The mission will commence at 14h00 and you will have two hours before you have to leave.
The note abruptly ended there leaving Alex confused as he turned it over looking for more information and then looking at the map. The meeting spot wasn't too far away and for a brief moment he considered just not going but as he didn't know who had sent the note he decided against it lest it be someone important. Besides, taking out an entire ET landing base sounded fun. With that thought in min he packed the few supplies he had available and set off as a left the rebel camp. The meeting spot would probably take him a couple of hours to get to an if the map was accurate it was in a small forest area north. Given the time he would probably arrive there long before he needed to but the wait would give him an opportunity to scout around a bit beforehand.
