Elizabeth 'Lzzy' Hale
The young ranger spoke up, weighing in his thoughts, he effectively repeated Lzzy's thoughts, albeit in more detail, though he did bring up the possibility of an intelligent raider that NCR has encountered in the past. Lzzy racked her brain but no name came to mind.

"So, three rangers take on this task and with our skills it shouldn't be much of a problem to capture or kill this bastard" said Reed.

Ranger Jackson responded, staning up from his chair and walking to a cabinet behind him and opened it "Yeah, we could kill him but its not much use to get any information from whoever it is if they're dead. Once you three make it to Nipton update me with any information and with that I'll give each of you a radio to keep in contact, but before I equip you guys, surely we can find out more about this mission before I release you guys on ya way" He brought 3 radios and extra ammunition for each of the Ranger's guns and sat back down

"Now, thats all I can really supply you guys for now but we must finish this discussion so we can be absolutely clear on it" he said while standing up and moving to to the front of his desk and sitting while crossing his arms.

'I'll be sniper cover from the any building window that we run across first" assurred Reed.

Lzzy, uncrossing her legs, spoke up "I'm not sure if there is anything more that can be discussed, we only have these Legion Scouts from Nipton and the raider attacks between Nipton and the outpost to run on. I strongly believe this reconnaissance mission is a necessity if we are going to get anywhere of sorting this dilemma out. With that said, I think we should approach via the Mojave Drive In at the south end of Nipton, I wouldn't expect there to be any guards watching over that area and there's only Bark Scorpions to watch out for. I will plan to move along the west edge of Nipton, get myself camouflaged and covered up against the sand and survey the main road outside the town hall."

Zyle Reed
I looked towards each person again until Hale spoke up.

"I'm not sure if there is anything more that can be discussed, we only have these Legion Scouts from Niption and the raider attacks between Nipton and the outpost to run. I strongly believe this reconnaissance mission is a necessity if we are going to get anywhere of sorting this dilemma out.

I will plan to move along the west edge of Nipton, get myself camouflaged and covered up against the sand and survey the main road outside the town hall." she said as to me a strategic plan.

"I'm in and it sounds like a great plan, and if we do run into trouble i'll equip my suppressor to make them drop dead without making a sound". I replied with a smirk looking towards Hale.

"Well that settles it, you three can move out tonight or tomorrow morning. Its your choice." Jackson said while gathering the radios and handing them out.

Elizabeth 'Lzzy' Hale
"I'm in and it sounds like a great plan, and if we do run into trouble I'll equip my suppressor to make them drop dead without making a sound". replied Reed, who gave a smirk towards her. Lzzy rolled her eyes, although a speck of smile crept across her face.

"Well that settles it, you three can move out tonight or tomorrow morning. Its your choice." said Jackson while gathering the radios and handing them out to the herself, Reed and the Patrol Ranger, whom she did not yet know the name of.

Lzzy stood up and started towards the door, turning round when she reached it. "If it's ok with everyone, I'd prefer to set off at dawn, my legs are killing me after my trek and a good night's sleep will allow me to be fresh and ready", turning her head towards to the Patrol Ranger "We haven't had the chance to exchange formalities, I'm Ranger Hale and you are Ranger..."

Viktor "Vik" Chills
Vik took the radio and began walking until he was stopped by the female ranger.

"We haven't had the chance to exchange formalities, I'm Ranger Hale and you are Ranger..." she said while looking towards Vik.

"Ranger Chills, Viktor Chills and sorry for the late introduction. I'm just a little shock about meeting actual living vetrens from two different generations. i think thats great as I'm too trying to achieve that honor in getting my black armor too". Vik said while nodding towards her direction.

"We need more Vet's like these two, but sadly most patrol rangers are granted their black armor back in Baja and not here, but surely Chief would make a exception if you work extremely hard as you should." Jackson said while ease dropping on the convo.

Vik looked towards Jackson and a smirked slowly appeared "Well sir, lets hope that day will come". Vik replied. Viktor then notice Ranger Reed and realized his posture, attitude, skills and determination was something to fear from a Elite Ranger, and more like him.

"Well my brethrens I shall talk to you three soon. I'm going to need some rest for the mission ahead". Jackson finally said while leaving the office.

Zyle Reed
My eyes followed Jackson when he left the office and rolled right over to the other two. I over heard about Chills wanting to earn his black armor, but didnt want to interupt the two, so I continued on my way out towards the barracks. Once I made it to the barracks I took off all my armor and secured it in the foot locker. I then layed in my bunk and kept slowly going over the results that this mission could turn out to in my head. then slowly dozzing off to get that nice rest.

OOC: my apologies for short reply. :whistling:

Elizabeth 'Lzzy' Hale
"Ranger Chills, Viktor Chills and sorry for the late introduction." finished Chills. "I'm just a little shocked about meeting actual living veterans from two different generations. I think thats great as I'm too trying to achieve that honor in getting my black armor too".

"Glad to meet you Ranger Chillis, I'm Elizabeth Hale, but I prefer to be called Lzzy by friends." She replied. "As of right now, you can call me Hale, I'm here for business, not for friends. Don't take it personally, but I must remain focused in our mission."

Jackson butted in, "We need more Vet's like these two, but sadly most patrol rangers are granted their black armor back in Baja and not here, but surely Chief would make a exception if you work extremely hard as you should."

Chills looked towards Jackson and a smirked slowly appeared "Well sir, lets hope that day will come".

"Well my brethrens I shall talk to you three soon. I'm going to need some rest for the mission ahead". Jackson said while leaving the office.

Lzzy placed an assuring hand on Chills's shoulder. "Your day will come." She turned and left the room and headed for the showers, washing herself free of any remaining sand particles and washing the raider blood from her patrol armour, she then took up a bunk in the women's barracks and drifted off to sleep.

Viktor "Vik" Chills
Everyone was out of the office except Vik and he too left the office and began walking towards the barracks. He walked outside and witness the troopers on duty, protecting the outpost from any one or thing the pose as a threat to the outpost. Vik then walked over to the barracks and entered, seeing all of the off duty soldiers and even reed lying there sleep. Viktor found a bunk and was too getting confortable, he then layed his down, and closed his eyes resting until tomorrow.

Zyle Reed
"Sir, the courier has reached Lanius Camp should we go after him." A Trooper shouted while taking a spear to the chest. "[censored]!!! Fire on the legion bastards till we can get to the gate." General Oliver ordered while fireing his very on weapon at legion soldiers. "Ranger Reed, take out that damn sniper from the cliff", my commander ordered while killing another legion soldier and then taking a shot to the chest, but did very little damage. I took the shot and killed the opposing sniper within minutes, but something strange happen. A explosion errupted, whipping out my whole unit and leaving me injured. "hahaha...An NCR Elite ranger. you managed to survive the the blast. I am amazed on how your type can survive even the worst perdictaments." a sinister voiced said while its figure was covered within the heavy haze. I tryed getting up but was quickly kicked down by the figure and was grabbed by the throat. The figure was clear, it was the shadow of Lanius Legate. The bastard that ordered many of my fellow comrades to be killed and i sit here to die as the same. "You Monster, you can go to hell", I struggeled to yell out as he was crushing my throat. "No, but you will. Say goodbye to your precious freedom", he yelled out while taking his blade and impaling me.

My eyes snapped open and my sweat covered me as if the nightmare was real. "Damn, that is Too close for confort. That is why I dont sleep much because sleep is the cousin of death". I thought to myself while looking around and seeing the troopers and even the young ranger resting. I then looked to my right were a trooper began askin...

"You alright Sir, do you need and assistance?" he asked

"No, just a little shakin up thats all, but thanks for the help anyway trooper." I replied while giving him a smirk and then getting up from the bunk.

I walked over to the showers to wash off any sweat that occured and dust. Once i was done with the shower i dryed off an walked over to the foot locker, were my armor was kept away from anyones hands.

Personality: hunter, passive aggressive to non prey, sunset sarsaparilla addict
Brief History:
Sun a genetically grown super mutant from a mix of a human and several different super mutants DNA samples. Sadly he was not as he was planned to be, while having most of the traits of a super mutant, his height was smaller than a regular super mutant, as well as being forgetful. Eventually he escaped the lab before he was destroyed, by killing the scientist; he then wandered the world hunting the beasts of the wasteland. Until finally he came across the drink know as sunset sarsaparilla and after one became hocked. He quickly changed his name to reflect his love for the drink and set off to find more.

A large grey cloaked figure wearing a hockey mask sat on the second floor of the nelson general store, looking out the window. He had been there for a while, using the location as a small bedroom in exchange for hunting the local wild life nearby, at least until the legion came and killed all but two of the humans there. He sat upstairs and watched out the window as the people had been taken and staked in front of him. He was not bothered by this at all, he had seen humans kill them self and others all the time in his travels. The group calling them self the legion gave him no trouble when he took off his mask, they showed no interest and he gave them no reason to. He continued to use the room every so often going into the mountains to hunt, each time he returned and went back to his home without incident. What else could he do he was new to the land, this land with high temperatures, new creatures and little water. So he waited for something to change, his room stocked with but a single crate of sarsaparilla’s and his weapons strapped to him.

OOC: I've finally got a photo of Lzzy as my avatar, appropriately standing in front of the Mojave Outpost sign. It was taken from my phone so the quality is shoddy. A supermutant is joining the RP, hmm this will be interesting, remember you don't have to get involved with us, it's a 'Stories across the Mojave' thing.

IC:

Elizabeth 'Lzzy' Hale
As Lzzy slept through the night she dreamt of the raider ambush earlier and thoughts raced through her heads of what might have happened, why it had happened, what was the big picture? Did it go back to Lanius himself? Were the Legion planning a round 3? This time conquering out of the way settlements before making a push for Hoover Dam yet again with the famous Courier no longer around? Would it be a fight all over again for control of the Mojave. Plans formulated in her head. Scout Nipton, possibly gain a foothold and set up a base for the NCR, a new Headquarters, like Camp McCarran. What then? Maybe reclaim old ranger stations and maybe, just maybe, reclaim Camp McCarran, and yet, expland more than the previous generations, more footholds around the Mojave to drive out Caesar's Legion and make the Mojave their own. Maybe she was crazy, was she really going to be involved in an epic war like the generation before her? She didn't know, she would have to go along with the ride and find out. She shaked the thoughts and fell into a deep sleep.

She woke up dead on dawn, as she had become so accustomed to during her time as her ranger. She sat up at the edge of her bunk, wiping her tired eyes. She grabbed her Desert Ranger gear and pulled it on, leaving her hood down and brushed herself down, she stepped outside the women's barracks into the cold morning air. She paused, taking a deep breath, she walked through the giant metal gate on the main road and walked over to where a caravan merchant and his brahmin, along with a bodyguard stood.

"Bighorner steak and a Nuka Cola please" she said to the merchant.

"That'll be 20 caps Miss" replied the merchant.

"Sure, hold on." She fumbled into a pocket in her backpack and brought out and counted them, until she had 20. "Here you are" she said, handing over the caps.

Reaching into a pack on the brahmin's back the merchant pulled out a lump of raw bighorner steak and a bottle of cold Nuka Cola.

"Thank you" said Lzzy, smiling at the merchant before turning away.

She walked down the side of the road towards the statues but stopped a few yards short and laid her backpack down. Searching around she found some fairly large rocks with which she formed a circle. In the circle she pulled out a bunch of wood tied together with some rope, removing the rope she laid the wood within the rocks. She then grabbed two of the pieces of wood and rubbed them together for a few minutes until they caught fire and placed them on top of the rest of the wood and the campfire burst in flames and into life. She had picked this up since her teenage days when she was a hunter. She grabbed the raw bighorner steak and threw it onto the fire and leaned back, pulling the top off the Nuka Cola bottle and brought it to her lips while she waited for the steak to cook.

Viktor "Vik" Chills
Vik woke up from his slumber and got up, he then sat up and whiped the sleep from his eyes and let out a big yawn. Vik got up and began getting ready for the morning and the mission ahead and started walking outside. He notice the sun was just beggining to show itsself and that it was going to be a long and hot day.

"Morning sir", a trooper greeted while giving a salute and going on about her buisness.

Vik saw Reed before he left the barracks but didnt pay anymine though he still had a lil sleep in his eyes. Viktor also saw Ranger Hale buying and cooking her some breakfast and walked over there to join her.

"Ranger Hale, you dont mind if I sit with you until the time comes do ya?" Viktor asked politely while giving her a tip of the hat greet.

Elizabeth 'Lzzy' Hale
Five minutes later, she saw Chills making his way across the road towards her.

"Ranger Hale, you dont mind if I sit with you until the time comes do ya?" he asked politely while giving her a tip of the hat greet.

"Not at all, take a seat." She spread her arms as a gesture. "You want some of this steak when it's cooked? There's enough of it for the three of us. Can't go out on a mission with an empty stomach" she said, smiling. "If you want a drink the merchant over yonder has some." She nodded her head in the direction of the merchant, then returned to her drink.

Zyle Reed
I began walking outside with my ranger helmet in one hand and my rifle in the other. Today seemed like it was going to be wild day and so i just observed my sourroundings and made sure the team was up and ready. I spotted them both by a fire were Hale was cooking food and so i began walking towards them.

"You two ready for this mission?" I asked aloud while continuing to walk their direction.

When i made it to them, I sat with them until it was time for us to move out.

"Excuse me for the interruption," said a trooper "...but there seems to be a problem with you guys mission. See a patrol that called in has ran into more trouble at Nipton and it seems that not only did the patrol got whiped out but the injured trooper is needed to be saved." The trooper continued.

I looked up towards the trooper and got up.

"Report to Major Knight about this problem and we will see what we could do once we get there". I said while crossing my arms to the disappointing report.

Viktor "Vik" Chills
"Not at all, take a seat." Hale spread her arms as a gesture. "You want some of this steak when it's cooked? There's enough of it for the three of us. Can't go out on a mission with an empty stomach" she also said, smiling. "If you want a drink the merchant over yonder has some." She nodded her head in the direction of the merchant, then returned to her drink.

"Yes, please." Vik replied while waiting on the steak to cook. He then notice Reed walking out the barracks.

"You two ready for this mission?" he asked aloud while continuing to walk our direction.

"I was born ready, matter of fact I was ready when the mission was accepted." I replied

Reed then sat by me until a trooper came running to us.

"Excuse me for the interruption," said a trooper "...but there seems to be a problem with you guys mission." The tooper paused and then sighed, "See a patrol that called in has ran into more trouble at Nipton and it seems that not only did the patrol got whiped out but the injured trooper is needed to be saved." The trooper continued.

Vik didnt say anything but saw that Reed was back on his feet.

"Report to Major Knight about this problem and we will see what we could do once we get there". Reed ordered while crossing his arms towards the trooper out of disappointment..

Elizabeth 'Lzzy' Hale
"Yes, please" replied Chills, taking a seat and waited with Lzzy for the steak to cook. She looked up and saw Reed walking out the barracks.

"You two ready for this mission?" he asked aloud while continuing to walk in the direction of where herself and Chills were sat.

"I was born ready, matter of fact I was ready when the mission was accepted" replied Chills.

"Of course, I didn't become a Desert Ranger by not being ready" said Lzzy.

Reed then sat at the campfire until a trooper came running towards the group.

"Excuse me for the interruption," said a trooper "...but there seems to be a problem with your guy's mission." The trooper paused and then sighed, "See a patrol that called in has ran into more trouble at Nipton and it seems that not only did the patrol got whiped out but the injured trooper is needed to be saved." The trooper continued.

Reed stood up. "Report to Major Knight about this problem and we will see what we could do once we get there". Reed crossed his arms towards the trooper out of disappointment.

Lzzy sighed and muttered to herself. "I would have thought the patrols would have taken the hint, they might be expecting us now." The steak was ready so she pulled out her machete, which was now clean of blood, and reached with it into the fire, piercing the steak and brought it out of the fire, she cut the steak into 3 pieces and tossed 2 of the pieces into the direction of Reed and Chills.

"Sorry, I would have provided plates but looks like we're in a hurry, we'll eat on the move." She picked up her backpack and slung it over her shoulder, padded herself down to check her guns and made her way towards the statues.

Viktor "Vik" Chills
Vik took the steak and sholved it down his mouth as the group was moving out early.

"Well, Time to go...Mmmm.. this is freaking tastey", Vik said while getting up and equipping his weapons.

Vik walked over to the ranger monuments and waited for the group, he saw the face of Reed and by how it looked it was the look of "No Hope for the Trooper."

OOC: kindda want to get in a lil bit of action now Lycan lol.

Zyle Reed
The time has come and it was time to move. I took the steak that Hale provided and gobbled it down with no problems.

"Troopers are really irresponsible these dayz," I said while looking towards Hale and putting my helmet on.

I notice that Chills was already up ahead to my guessing he was truely ready for revenge on what happen to his patrol. However the mission has gotten even dangerous, PFC. Fox ran out to be of some kind of assistance.

"Sir and ma'am, I can be of assistance and i would help out on what i can. I am a good shooter and i can take targets out in 300 range." He told us.

"Sorry troop, but this mission is highly dangerous and maybe some other time," I said while looking his way and then walking off to the distance towards the monument.

OOC: Yeah me too but thats how some rp's start, they have to roll into action.

Awaking soon after light began to shine Sun got out his bumper blade and headed outside to do some hunting. As he exited the general store he quickly saw several legionnaires moving new fortifications into place, newly cut tree’s, parts of destroyed buildings and several panels from the nearby motor homes. As sun looked around more carefully he saw a 2 legionnaires drag a very bloody soldier up to a wooden pole and tie her to it, her armour soaked deeply in blood, clearly very injured but the slight breathing told sun she was still alive. Two more bodies hung with only there vests on impaled into the wooden pole on at the top of the legion banister’s standing as a entrance between the walls neither of them moved. He quickly remembered the gun fire not long ago, and headed back inside.

Somthing big was about to happen and he was not about to let what ever it was cost him his house.

Elizabeth 'Lzzy' Hale
Both rangers gratefully gobbled down their piece of steak, as did Lzzy, although she took more time eating her piece.

"Troopers are really irresponsible these days," said Reed, looking in Lzzy's direction, while putting his helmet on. He must have overheard her mutter to herself.

"Yeah" Lzzy replied, keeping it short and sweet, speeding up slightly to catch up to Reed, who was heading for the monument where Chills was waiting, eager to get going.

A trooper by the name of Fox ran up to herself and Reed. "Sir and ma'am, I can be of assistance and I would help out on what I can. I am a good shooter and I can take targets out in 300 range."

Reed addressed her, while Lzzy pulled her Trail Carbine over her shoulder and held it upright against her shoulder, the muzzle of the gun pointing skywards "Sorry troop, but this mission is highly dangerous and maybe some other time," said Reed while looking at the trooper and then both contunued walking to the monument.

Not wasting any time, Lzzy walked past Chills, still waiting, under the monument and started her way down the steep hill.

Zyle Reed
I followed behind Hale from a distance and was assuming Chills was right behind me. This mission was going to give us the oppertunity to make a checkpoint through Nipton.

An Hour Later:

We made it to the restop and Nipton was just 5 minutes away. I could see the fires from were we were and again the banners of the bull, knowing when Nipton was captured the last time we didnt capture it for ourselves, but this time...The Bear will fly over the town to mark a new era.

"Alright, we are almost there. Do we wanna go over a quick plan before charging into the town?" I asked while continuing to walk.

Viktor "Vik" Chills
Vik followed closely as Nipton was just up ahead. He notice the banners of the bull posted right at the entrance like it was when Nipton was captured last time.

"Alright, we are almost there. Do we wanna go over a quick plan before charging into the town?" Reed asked while still walking.

"I'm good and ready to kill", Vik replied while pulling his rifle at the low-ready, Ready for anything to pop off.

Elizabeth 'Lzzy' Hale
Reed and Chills followed Lzzy as they headed towards Nipton. An hour later they were at the reststop where a previous squad was ambushed, it seemed quiet for now. A legion flag at Nipton blew gently in the distance.

"Alright, we are almost there. Do we wanna go over a quick plan before charging into the town?" Reed asked.

"I'm good and ready to kill" Chills replied, eager to fight, maybe too eager.

Lzzy rolled her eyes, as both seemed quick to abandon the original plan, or at least had forgotten it over a night's sleep. "If we charge the town head on, the legion will have enough time to hold us off and execute the captured trooper. We must stick to the original plan that we discussed last night, albeit with a different objective. Attack from the south through the Mojave Drive-In where we can slip through their patrols and surprise them. If we are patient while we do this we may be able to find out a bit of what's going on around Nipton and then, all due respect to the injured trooper, complete Objective B."

Hale said while looking back.

"Its done, and once we make it into the town "I" like I said while occupy a building so I can cover you guys." I said looking towards her.

We walked towards the Mojave Drive-In and once there, scouted the area. I notice Legion soldiers cruxicfying surviving troop's and patrolling the street on the far end side.

"We gotta move quick and smooth." I said while still looking towards their position.
