Today was a good day, Rakka was assigned his first patrol with some other members of the squad. These two members being ones he had not spent any time with outside of basic routines, ceremonies and any PT they had done. It was going to be a good night, get to know some of his squad mates Daniel and Nora.
The young marine was the first to arrive at the meeting point by the barracks, he was in his already oil stained jacket that Reynard had acquired for him on Ensign Lovelace’s order. It was good to feel some semblance of warmth whilst performing his daily duties. If Rakka had the sense to ask more than just his mother what the climate was going to be on his first assignment he may have more than just this standard issue jacket.
The next to arrive were two of the more standard dressed recruits, Jonah Novajo and Eric Crendor. These two were older than Rakka, more experienced and well liked amongst most of the regular rank and fire of the overall division. They were just chattering away before they noticed the Stetson wearing. The pair moved forward to their new target, finally getting the new blood alone.
“Hey Rak, settling in well?” Jonah greeted, moving his thick red and white scarf away from his face to do so.
“I heard Ensign Lovelace beat you up for initiation, rough shit man.” Eric added, shifting his own cap mid-sentence to look a little cooler towards the younger Marine.
“Hey Jonah, Eric. I think so… ” The Stetson toting man started, looking up from the sleeves of his jacket, trying to rub some of the oil stains away. “And she did but me and Reynard got her back!” He replied, bringing a triumphant grin to his face. The memories of the great spar still fresh as were some of the bruises that were hidden under his clothes.
“I still had to clean up the dojo afterwards though… I don’t exactly have a clean fighting style.” Rakka tacked on, scratching the back of his head, stifling an awkward chuckle at his abilities. They were something that most people would kill to have, and others would kill just to keep away from them. Rakka saw them as his own blessing, an ability for him to mold into something that can make him an admiral of the World Governments Navy.
“I heard.” Jonah replied, looking his junior up and down trying to weigh up his ability from appearance alone. “Hopefully we don’t need you to use it tonight.” The man tacked on.
