End Of Note

Battlecruiser Tyreal strode peacefully in the emptiness of space, it's crew just beginning the routine of checks and repairs. Its military personnel are sitting in the bar, eating their breakfast. The commander was checking the systems and its navigator was plotting their next course.

Squad Triton was sitting in the bar, taking a "day" off. The squad was composed of seven men and their captain.

Calko "Cane" Eirny, the physically strongest of the team, upbeat, optimistic.

Terry Don, unfocused and not the greatest in combat, but his knowledge of technology is what keeps him in the team.

Yen Heuna, a smart man, accurate aim, good in combat.

Luzio "Liz" Tonn, the most agile of the team. Very jokey, but can be annoying at times.

Tanner Basile, explosive expert, and can be pessimistic at times. A Marauder

Cale "Nix" Nixer, reluctant and at times cowardly, but can be very useful if he can fight his fears.

Gary "Grim" Ohly, a brood war veteran, the oldest and wisest of the group, tactical expertise invaluable.

And their leader, Captain Wheel, a brood war veteran, too.

Nix, Cane, Terry and Yen were all in the bar, drinking.

"You think you can take on Zergling? Terry?" Said Nix.

Sure I can! But you are probably too afraid to fight one, Nix" Terry replied.

"Zerglings don't scare me, only Hydralisks..." Said Nix

The table bursted to to laughter.

"At least I have some actual combat experience" Nix said. "I killed Zerg before, what did you do? Catch some ragtag group of rebels with illegal shit?"

Half of the Squad did not have much combat experience, the only ones who have been in real, terrifying, and intense combat would be Grim, Cane, Yen and Luzio. Their recent operations have been far from exciting, usually involving defending a certain unimportant Dominion base. For the last year, they have been in the battlecruiser Tyreal, patrolling around like guards. But they have grown fond of the cruiser, even calling it home sometimes.

"Anyways, you will never fight a Zergling, you will always fight Zerglings" Said Cane.

"Zerglings? I don't like being swarmed by hundreds of those creepy things..." Said Terry.

"Usually they are in packs of four, or eight, minimum would be two. I know that if I am in an open space with nothing defending me, I could kill around three Zerglings on my own before my armor gets ripped off. These critters are scary creatures, but stick together, and you can take on whole packs of them" Said Cane.

Nix rolled his eyes, but Terry listened carefully.

"Anyways, we won't be fighting any Zerg any time soon-"

Suddenly the speaker in the Bar boomed, "All members of Squad Triton report to room 114. All members of Squad Triton report immediately to room 114."

The members at the cafe looked at each other nervously. Nix was especially uncomfortable.

They put their empty drinks down on the table, and headed to room 114.

All Squad Triton was in 114, all of them were nervous. They didn't know why they were brought here and it scared them. Some of them were afraid that it was because of something they did.

"God, it was only a little prank…" Liz said to himself.

Suddenly Captain Wheel's voice boomed, "Your prank has nothing to do with this!"

The Captain entered the room, both his hands behind his back. He never puts his hands behind his back, unless it was something really important. Really important.

There was a long and eerie silence in the room, Wheel looked at everyone's faces.

"Are they deporting us?!" Asked Liz.

"No, but all of you will be leaving Tyreal for your new assignment..." Wheel said

"Thank God"

"...On Char."

Suddenly the whole squad's heart jumped. Nobody expected this. Nobody.

"Wait! Char itself?! The Zerg's main world?" Nix shouted.

"Yes! You heard me...Char" Wheel said.

"Valerian and Raynor are making their move on Char to defeat The Queen Of Blades and stop the Zerg invasion.

"Wait!" Said Nix. "Raynor!? Isn't he the rebel leader?"

"Yes, he is. But now we are working together for the greater good. I don't know how, but they found a way to defeat that thing, not much details were given to us."

"You will be assigned to Char Outpost D9, further details will be given to you there"

"But won't we get killed?!" Said Nix. "It's Char! We're all gonna die!...Oh no, Hydralisks.."

"Calm Down, Nix" Said Grim. Nix, shut his mouth and looked with fear in his eyes.

"I was not given much more information other than that, Tyreal will go to Char, and you will be sent to Outpost D9 through a Medivac. You may, or may not, be returning"

The squad was silent and the next day, prepared to leave. They said goodbye to some of their friends in Tyreal, as there was no guarantee they will survive Char. They will be going very soon.

Later, the team met again in 114. "Captain, you're coming with us, right?" Asked Nix.

Wheel looked at him sternly, "No...my duties are needed elsewhere".

"But, you've always been there with us, why-"

"I am needed with General Warfield"

The squad was, again, surprised by the captain.

"Holy shit! Warfield himself?! I didn't know you were that high ranking!" Said Terry.

Wheel simply nodded, "It is time. You will now go to the docking bay and enter your Medivac, Our cruiser is nearing Char."

"Before you go, I need you to know this. D9 may not be the most important location in this war, but you are my squad! Squad Trition! You will fight in there, and you will do your best! All your training will come to this day. On Char, there are Zerg everywhere, so it is guaranteed that you will enter combat with them. But are Squad Trition! You will fight! And you will stand!"

"Yes sir!" shouted everybody in the room.

"Don't disappoint me" Said Wheel, and smiled.
