Mac shook her head as both the Captain stepped through the gate, and the Admiral went off in the other direction, leaving her currently the highest ranking officer. Dandy. She turned around, her soft brown eyes scanning. Her two teammates had finally appeared. Good. She nodded at them, forgoing the usual salute-salute back nonsense. The older Marine had little time or tolerance for BS, and particularly, BS that interferred with her job. Like saluting. She didn't NEED some stupid signal to let her know that her people respected her. She EARNED it by being a good leader, gently and carefully molding them into great soldiers, wether Army or Marine. And the same went for the Sailors and Airmen under her, as well. No one was lesser because of his chosen service-a tease target, certainly, but not lesser. Everyone had their place. Mac believed this to her core. It was how she'd picked herself up by the bootstraps-LITERALLY-and made her way to OCS. 

She made a quick announcement. 

Ok, all. Listen up. If you have any problems, please direct them to the Admiral. Pass the buck. He was an admiral; he could handle it. 

She turned to the two Lieutenants that stood before her. She eyed them; well, they weren't as turned out as she'd have liked. Still, they would do. 

Ok, boys. Cocked, locked, and ready to rock? Let's go. She led the two men through the gate and out into the warm Jungle sun. She squinted before lowering her sunglasses. Much better. She turned around and addressed Telion. 

Lt. Telion. This being my first rodeo, I will rely on YOU to be my eyes and ears. YOU, Charter. You will alert me to any and all danger signals with your magic stuff. We will start to my right. I think it's best if we stick together since we're the smallest team. Does that sound good to you? She wiaited.

Hey, also. Let's think of a fun name for our team. Remember OCS? Yeah, like that. And it better not be anything dumb like the Three Musketeers.

She was going to KILL whomever made this billet, that was for sure.

After successfully conniving the two Oxfords to take the lead of Project Vedas. The expedition gated to a what appears to be and hanger bay type of area in the middle of vast jungle/rainforest setting. With no signs of life from the previous occupants or artifacts left behind. Teams are left on their to explore their new home. Coming across a new races that are either part of Vedic Galaxy or not. After sending the teams off to explore the neighborhood, the remaining members explore their surroundings.

Marah was the first to step out of the gate and into the warm summer breeze of the planet. She took in a deep breath of the fresh air before getting back to her job as point. Scanning the horizon she moved quickly to a fallen tree on a few meters away from the gate's face. As she knelt down and faced the area she heard the familiar sound of the rest of the vedas members walk through the gate. "Kelly, take shadow and scout the perimeter" she said not even turning to the new comers. Then after one final look she stood up and looked at her team "Fiala looks like a lovely countryside to me. No hostile locals either, that's a first" she said with a smile looking over at Fiona. "Miss McCafferty, Nice place we have here" she said to the woman as SV-3 came through the gate. "Lt Colonel, Area is secure. So where shall we start our exploration" she said to the newly arrived team with a wide sweep of her arms to the horizon beyond them.

Aear had been led back to the gate by Koren, a Lt Col Sarah Mackenzie would be leading the two of them. The aura she gave Aear pleased him somewhat, from her body language she looked like she didn't take any BS, something Aear liked in a CO, sure he'd come out with half of it she'd come across but he knew pretty much where and when it was acceptable. In any case it looked like he might get on well with this Mackenzie. Cyleo was running diagnostics as they waited to move out chiming away words that probably meant nothing to everyone else here. Hell Cyleo didn't even need to do a full diagnostic, a general one would suffice, but having built AIMNWs Aear always liked more information.

Ok, boys. Cocked, locked, and ready to rock? Let's go. She led the two men through the gate and out into the warm Jungle sun. She squinted before lowering her sunglasses. Much better. She turned around and addressed Telion.

"Ready to go. SV-3.3 Aear Charter. Get ready go!" Said Aear before stepping through the gate. It was a launch phrase he'd used when he was assigned as part of the Bobtail's strike group and something that had stayed with him, he just changed the designation number where appropriate.

Lt. Telion. This being my first rodeo, I will rely on YOU to be my eyes and ears. YOU, Charter. You will alert me to any and all danger signals with your magic stuff. We will start to my right. I think it's best if we stick together since we're the smallest team. Does that sound good to you? She wiaited.

"Got it MaDaRs online, will let you know if there's any contacts. It's not too great with people mind you. You want MaNaR for that but an energy pulse gives away our position." Said Aear explaining the basic differences between the two Meowtian magic sensor systems. "Move right and stick together." He confirmed.

Hey, also. Let's think of a fun name for our team. Remember OCS? Yeah, like that.

"Well, we have a gate vet, yes I looked up your file while I was on Earth Korey." Said AEar pointing at Koren "And a knight." He said pointing at himself. "And you kind of remind me of Earthican Marines." He said motioning towards Sarah. "How about Blue Steel?"

Liam heard Marah's order and nodded, then looked at Shadow.  Lets go  he said to him in German, to which Shadow looked up, then headed out with him.  Both were focused and alert, not knowing what was out here.  Shadow kept his nose low to the ground, sniffing out for anyone or anything that was around them.  Liam kept his P90 up and ready at the same time, safety off and finger near the trigger just in case.  It was a little too quiet, something that Liam didn't like.  I don't like this  he said to himself as he and Shadow scouted the perimeter out.  A few moments later, Shadow stopped and pawed at something in the ground after sniffing at it.  Liam watched, then had him heal while getting his radio out.  "Sgt. Kelly to Lt. Law.....I'm in the Northeast section of the perimeter, Shadow's found something that you might want to take a look at, over." he said into his radio.

Fiala's eyes remained closed until she reached the other side of the gate and was blinded by the tranquil view . It was the view, the smell and the breeze of the air that amazed her . She approached Marah to the full view of the countryside ,

Fiala looks like a lovely countryside to me. No hostile locals either, that's a first

Fiala put one foot on the log, she started scanning the land and a small smile came to her mouth as she noticed rich the land looked . Fiala replied," l say we may of hit a winner on are first shot here, if that land is as good as it looks it may hold some good crops and who knows what else ."
The village looked so relaxed with out a care to the world . Her eyes scanned the environment looking for any sign or marks of any treat, the only thing she noticed was a bunch of kids laughing and screening playing some version of chase . She could feel the fresh breeze flow in to her face treating her to the fresh smell of land . Even do there were no treats, Fiala was ready for combat if needed .

Liam looked over and heard the kids as well after making his call on the radio.  Shadow heard them as well and looked over, his ears up and alert as he looked.  Shadow watched them closely, knowing they were kids, but he was still protective of Liam as he didn't know who they were.  Liam kept a tight hold on Shadow's leash and his P90 just in case.  "Easy Shadow" he said to the dog as they watched the kids.

Koren looked out at the beautiful world around him. As with most Stargate expeditions, the planet closely resembled earth, and this planet reminded him very much of the pacific northwest where he came from. Koren took a deep breath and smiled as he imagined that this must have been what Washington was like when Chief Seattle decided to plant his tribe near Lake Washington and the Puget Sound; so dense, lush and full of allergens. Koren's reverie was short-lived, however, as his team leader brought him back to business.

"Lt. Telion," Said Sgt. Mackenzie, "This being my first rodeo, I will rely on YOU to be my eyes and ears."

"Eyes and Ears, Boss," Koren said, checking his weapon and taking his new orders to heart immediately, scanning the area.

"YOU, Charter." The Sergeant continued, "You will alert me to any and all danger signals with your magic stuff."

"Got it MaDaRs online, will let you know if there's any contacts." Aear responded, "It's not too great with people mind you. You want MaNaR for that but an energy pulse gives away our position." Koren wasn't too fond of being put on a team with Aear. Frankly, Koren didn't trust the cat-man, especially after he had made it clear to the Admiral that he was in this for the interests of his people, and while Koren understood the sentiment and would do the same in Aear's position, Paul's words to him about protecting the expedition at all costs and the Admiral's words about protecting him from himself rang in his ears, and Koren could not in his right mind ignore the security risk Aear posed. He supposed it was just as well, then, that Koren was on the team with the man. Though he'd had a checkered and difficult past, the cat-man who more than anything seemed to want to be accepted was not doing anything to help the expedition trust him. Maybe he just doesn't do well with first encounters, Koren thought. It's time to test his mettle with a real mission. If Aear was anything like Koren, when the bullets started flying, the boy's true colors would show, and then Koren would know whether or not he could trust the meowtian 

"We will start to my right." The Sergeant said, "I think it's best if we stick together since we're the smallest team. Does that sound good to you?" She wiaited.

"Sounds like a good idea, sir," Koren said, affirming her command whilst responding to the inquiry.

"Move right and stick together." Aear said as well, looking around.

"Hey, also." Mac called back to them as she started the bushwhacking, "Let's think of a fun name for our team. Remember OCS? Yeah, like that."

"Well, we have a gate vet," Koren shot Aear an incredulous look. He answered with a pointed look of his own, "Yes I looked up your file while I was on Earth Korey." Said Aear before turning back to his musings, pointing at himself, "And a knight, and you kind of remind me of Earthican Marines." He said motioning towards Sarah. "How about Blue Steel?"

Koren thought about it for a moment, "For once, I agree with Aear on this one," He said, giving Aear a significant look with raised eyebrows, nodding as he said, "Blue Steel has a nice ring to it."

As Koren waited for Mac's response, he turned to Aear, "The locals must have a militia of some kind," Koren thought aloud, indicating the children playing, "They're not afraid of soldiers with weapons."

Fiona was not happy to be leaving the base. She was still working systems out-most were up and running, and between herself, Aear, and James, they'd gotten the cruisers prepped and those systems up. Now, though, she was going to go through the gate yet again. She stepped through behind Fiala, and squinted at the bright sun before her eyes adjusted. 

She heard her name, and looked up. 

Miss McCafferty, Nice place we have here... Fee nodded. It was bloody hot, and instantly, she sneezed. She'd need to see the Doc for allergy meds. She lowered her head to her tablet-she was trying to get Koren's radio signal, but it was useless. SHe sighed, and put the computer in the pocket of her oversized BDUs. 

I suppose. She sneezed again, and then looked around. She was with Liam and Fiala as well as Marah. At least Fiala was there. Fiona smiled at her. 

What do we do now?

Mac heard the two "arrive" behind her. They had a quick huddle, and all agreed to their assignments. 

Got it MaDaRs online, will let you know if there's any contacts. It's not too great with people mind you. You want MaNaR for that but an energy pulse gives away our position....Move right and stick together. 

Mac had NO idea what MaDaRs are, nor MaNaRs, and she didn't care, as long as the cat man didn't screw up. 

The Lt. was more formal about it. 

Eyes and Ears, Boss,...Sounds like a good idea, sir Mac nodded, and started forward. The three HAD to make a funny trio-a tall female Marine colonel, a tall, big blonde Air Force pilot, and a smaller cat man. Mac wondered why she was given THIS team...the Admiral surely had a good reason, but she would like to know WHY. 

Great! I am glad we're all on the same page. Next order of business was the team name-the purpose of THAT had a point. It was to make them more cohesive. If you felt like you belonged, you were more apt to feel the need to protect. She was counting on that idea for this mission.

Well, we have a gate vet, yes I looked up your file while I was on Earth Korey...And a knight...And you kind of remind me of Earthican Marines. How about Blue Steel? Mac made a face. She WAS a Marine. Telion concluded. 

For once, I agree with Aear on this one...Blue Steel has a nice ring to it. Mac thought about it for a moment. She nodded. 

Ok, Blue Steel it is. And yes, lt. I agree. Let's just keep moving, but keep quiet. I think that's the best. Don't ignore, but don't engage for now. Mac's brown eyes watched the children playing with a soft smile. She liked kids, but she hoped that these weren't evil alien kids.

Fiala stood there waiting till SV-3 reached there position, Marah may of been her commanding officer to which Fiala had no disagreement with as she came with experience and than there was Sarah Mackenise of SV-3 who out ranked even Marah . Fiala was still unsure of the LtCol, first impressions hadn't gone well and first impressions had a habit of sticking with Fiala . Paying full attention to her surroundings Fiala couldn't help but over hear the LtCol wanting to come up with some name for there team, Fiala could understand the LtCol need to wanting to come up with a name for her team and in understanding it she was strong against in any way of there team getting one . Fiala's view was a team didn't choice a name, they made a name by been the best and given a hundred percent in their duty . When she heard the name Blue Steel Fiala couldn't help but wonder if she hadn't heard that name before and whispered in Marah ear," Wasn't that the name of movie . Good film .


<tag Marah Law>

She watch as in her view how Fiona stood there looking like a little school girl not wanting to be there . But it would take time for her to find her place and feel part of the team . Kelly was a soldier and seemed to already starting to find his steps . " Fiona stay close and remember your in good hands ." With that she gave Fiona a slap on the shoulder and turned to the LtCol waiting to see how she was going to grow this .

Liam was still standing next to the object that Shadow found during their sweep, waiting for his commanding officer to show up so she could see what Shadow had found.  As he stood there, Shadow was laying next to him, keeping alert at the same time.  Liam scanned the area around them, then looked back at the object that Shadow had found, wondering if it had to do with the group of kids they saw.  Wouldn't be a stretch to believe that  he said to himself.  Liam looked back up, wondering if the rest of the teams were though the gate yet.

Fee was watching the team's interaction with some interest. She was a bit scared, but she was going to try to be brave. 

Fiala approached and spoke to her. 

Fiona stay close and remember your in good hands . She nodded. She smiled, grateful for the woman's help. 

Thanks, Fiala. I will. I know... She DID know. Still, she was nervous, and upset. 

She tried to find Koren's signal again, but to no avail. Finally, the team began to move forward, and Fee stuck close as Fiala instructed. She wished she knew how to use a firearm. Not that she WOULD, but she COULD if she had to.

Marah just stared at the Lieutenant Colonel with a raised eye brow, Naming a team to here was commands decision not theirs but as the woman was superior to her she left it alone and concentrated on her own team. She walked back to Fiala shaking her head at SV-3. She stopped and smiled at Fiala's comment.

" l say we may of hit a winner on are first shot here, if that land is as good as it looks it may hold some good crops and who knows what else ."

Marah nodded her head "Yer I can see that, an Agri world would be good for us" she said looking back at the gate and then scanned the horizon.

Wasn't that the name of movie . Good film .

Marah held back a laugh at that comment, "Yer I believe it was, That guy from seaquest DSV stared in it can't remember his name" she whispered back when Liam came over the radio.

"Sgt. Kelly to Lt. Law.....I'm in the Northeast section of the perimeter, Shadow's found something that you might want to take a look at, over."

"Coming Kelly" Marah said looking at the other two members of SV-2, "Shall we go see what out Sergeant has found ?" she asked and then moved off towards Kelly's position. Around the gate and up a small hill Marah approached Kelly, "So what has Shadow fou...." she cut her self off as she saw the town in the distance. "Well looks like we have natives " she finished off saying.

Aear's team name suggestion seemed to go down a treat as first Koren then Mac approved.

"For once, I agree with Aear on this one," He said, giving Aear a significant look with raised eyebrows, nodding as he said, "Blue Steel has a nice ring to it."

"See, I'm not just a pretty face." Said Aear puffing up a little as Mac commanded them to keep moving.

Aear scanned the area as his team moved along, he picked up the scent of woodsmoke, probably from the village these kids where from. He actually wanted to join in but if they were anything like the kids back home they wouldn't let him join. He personally had hoped at the time it was just the parents doing, he'd heard the whispered warnings whenever they'd come to collect the kids. Aear looked away from the kids and towards Koren just as he started to speak again.

"The locals must have a militia of some kind," Koren thought aloud, indicating the children playing, "They're not afraid of soldiers with weapons."

"Isn't that assuming their level of tech is advanced enough to know that what you're carrying is a weapon?" Questioned Aear at Koren's comment. "If we were carrying swords I might share your sentiment but do they even realize were soldiers?"
