[The video flicks on, revealing a light blue visor that was currently taking up most of the screen's display. Something that lasted for about, oh, two seconds before the feed was flicking on and off a couple of times. Almost like the user was making sure he had the right button and was, in fact, broadcasting to... whomever else was able to receive this.]

... [Tap, tap of his finger directly on the screen, before the stranger would finally pull away to a reasonable distance. Revealing both the upper part of his armor, and the city around him.] This working?

Good. [An inhale, bracing himself.] I need information.

Has there been any other soldiers here with armor like mine? Tend to call themselves Helljumpers, Freelancer or Spartans. Last ones are usually big. [Lifting his hand way above his head to emphasis this, before casually letting it fall back down.] Also would appreciate any further advice or information about this place.

Thank you. [And with that, the transmission cuts off.]

I guess not.

So, you're a soldier, what do you think about being brought here?

Mostly?

If the people here are desperate enough to get strangers like us to fight their battles for them, we're in a whole lot of trouble.

Considering the level of tech they have, we got to assume the rest of the world has similiar if not better. Also, it seems to be everyone verse us if it comes down to a real fight.

I don't know about you, but I've fought world wars before. Usually, the real underdogs don't win unless the other side does something really stupid.

Or they get lucky. Not that either option is very good to rely upon in the long run, unless these people really are that desperate.

Can't say they've given me much motivation to help them out, though. Which is another thing not in their favor.

That too. This feels more like an experiment.

But I don't even really know if that's true.

Your guess is as good as mine.

Chances are we won't know until they feel like telling us, or someone slips up.

Wouldn't that be nice?

I'm going to try to find out sooner. If I do, I'll be sure to pass the info along.

Thanks. I'll be sure to do the same.

[Pause.] Robo, right?

That's right.

If I ever get a team together, I'll let you know. I could use people with military experience, even other worldly military experience.

Sounds good. Not sure how useful I'll be, but I'm not against the idea of a little teamwork now and again.

You're a soldier, right? That's a good start.

Suppose it is.

[But how that will play into the sort of team Robo plans on setting up, however, is something Rookie still isn't sure about.

He's open to the idea, though. More allies he makes here, the better.]

If you can handle a gun without shooting yourself, that's more than I can ask for at the moment.

In that case, you definitely have nothing to worry about.

Good.

Oh, I should add not shooting me.

Definitely no shooting me.

Run into that problem often?

People forget friendly fire when you're a walking tank.

That won't be an issue with me. I know how to check my targets.
