Four Athenians followed Miller and McKenna into the armory, suiting up alongside them.
"Darren, pass me a couple magazines." A soft woman's voice sounded. She had pointed to a couple magazines for the bullets and Darren tossed them to her. "Thanks." She smiled.
"No problem Reina." Darren responded. He was about 5'10 and weight 175. He as a little skinnier and a tad shorter than Miller.
Another voice sounded, "Darren make sure to grab a couple grenades." This voice was a little more stern and deeper. Regi Bergman. The man was ex-military and he had seen combat before the world had basically ended. He was a Master Sergeant in the Special Forces Group, a very specialized and hardened man. His wife sadly didn't make it when everything went chaotic, but he was able to save his daughter Rose.
"Copy." Darren replied. Some of the military slang is still being used be not as much anymore. All the old customs and courtesies don't exist. Most of it disappeared with the government a few years ago.
A shorter woman about 5'4, 110lbs came into the room. "Well boys, I got it." She said and smiled proudly. She held a small airborne drone. "I've been working on this bad boy for a minute now." She said holding it out for everyone to look at. "It uses plasma fuel. Only needs to be filled up every 100 hours of use." She said and smiled and then it died a little, "That fuel is hard to come by sadly since the collapse." She frowned slightly, "but we'll manage."
"Good job Lena. It looks great." Darren replied and smiled, walking over to her. He fiddled with it for a second looking it over. He looked up at her, "I got your gear outfit right over here." He said pointing to a spot in the middle of the wall.
"Great" Lena replied.
Miller finished gearing up, not really talking with anyone else. He pulled out a flask and took a little shot of his vodka. He had been drinking whiskey but wanted to change it up a little.
He walked over to Regi and talked quietly to him, "Just wait for our signal for the go-ahead. I expect resistance, but we don't ever really know what those bastards are gonna do."
Regi nodded as he listened to him, "Copy that."
Miller looked back at McKenna, "You ready?"
