A/N: Hey guys, its been a while! I have returned with a wonderful surprise; I am working with the original author of this fic, a man that went by the name donutisgay on the site this was originally posted on [the now deceased ] and we wanna know, would you prefer the story like it used to be, or updated with a bit better writing and updated, possibly different plot? Let us know in the reviews, and until then, enjoy!

Black. That is all Agent Indiana saw when he awoke. He slowly and carefully walked over to the door, pressing the button next to it, as it hissed open he flinched at the sudden bright light, then jumped back and gave a shout in surprise. Just outside the door stood the hulking form of Agent Maine, one of his two best friends.

"Jesus Christ dude, don't fucking DO that. You scared the shit outta me!" Indiana said, sternly, but unable to hide his smile.

" ~Growl hiss growl~ (C'mon dude, you're gonna miss breakfast. Why'd you sleep in so late this morning?)"

"Well, if you must know; me and the Director had some business to take care of… meaning he took me to the bar and asked me how I'm doing." Indi said with a chuckle.

Indiana let Maine into his room, shared with Wisconsin; who he noticed was gone. Indiana started putting on his armor, when he finished, him and Maine headed down to the Mess Hall.

"So, what went on while I was asleep?" Indiana asked.

" ~Growl hiss growl growl~ (Well, Texas is hunting down York for switching her grits with paste, Carolina is speaking to the Director, and me and North are about to have a sparring match if you wanna join in.)"

"Nah, I'm gonna eat, then maybe I'll kick someone's ass… say where's Wisconsin?"

" ~Growl~ (He's coming up on your left actually)"

"Hey Indi!" Said Wisconsin, walking up behind Indiana.

"'Sup Con?"

"Nuthin' much… I have a prank pulled for the next unfortunate people to walk onto the training floor! It's gonna be awesome!" Wisconsin whispered to Indiana with a chuckle.

"Well, you might wanna rethink-"

BANG

" ~GROWL HISS GROWL~ (WISCONSIN I'M GOING TO FUCKING KILL YOU!)"

Maine came charging around the corner, bright pink paint coating is armor. All of the surrounding Freelancers started to laugh until Maine spotted Wisconsin and roared like an angry herd of elephants and charged straight towards the unfortunate Freelancer. Wisconsin wasted no time, he turned around and took off down the hall, Maine hot on his heels.

Indiana turned back to the line of soldiers getting food and started to load up his own tray. He sat down with his scrambled eggs on toast, apple, and coffee, intending to have a peaceful breakfast… at least until North and York sat on either side of him.

"Hey Indi, what's goin' on?" Asked York, starting on his muffin.

"Nothing much, shouldn't you be hiding in a supply closet somewhere York?"

"Nah, Tex'd expect that, hiding in plain sight is my best option."

"If you say so, how are you North?"

"Pretty good, I have to talk to South about her trying to bribe her way back onto the leader board again, and was wondering if you could help me?"

"I-um… wh… what makes you think I could be of uh… of help?"

"Well, I just need someone strong to back me up, and Maine seemed kinda busy hehe…"

"Oh, yeah… alright, when do you wanna talk to her?"

"I was thinking when you're done with your breakfast, seeing as I no longer have a training session with Maine until he catches Wisconsin…"

"Alright, let me finish my apple and I'll be ready to go… So, what's this big mission the Director wants us to go on anyways? Either of you know?"

"Nope, nobody's heard anything about it except that we will go tomorrow, and that it's extremely important."

"Huh, kinda weird that he's not telling us what to expect, so we can prepare for it…"

They sit in silence until Indi finishes his apple and brings his empty tray to the return slot, keeping his coffee. York leaves the two and starts heading towards the weight room. North and Indiana head towards South and Connie's shared room. They knock on the door and hear a soft "Come in". They open the door to see Connie laying on her bed reading a book.

"Hey guys, what's up?"

"Hey Connie… you seen South, we need to talk with her."

"Oh, she just went into the bathroom, here come on in and have a seat. She shouldn't be long." Connie said sitting up and patting her bed.

Indi sits down next to Connie, while North sits across from them on South's bed. Indi scans the room and the book Connie was reading catches his eye.

"The History of Naval Warfare? Huh, I never imagined you liking stuff like that Connie." Says Indiana, raising his eyebrow and removing his helmet, revealing his golden hair and bright blue eyes.

"Yeah, I love it… the whole thing has always interested me, you know anything about it?" She asks.

"Connie, you've never been inside me and Wisconsin's room have you?"

"No, I haven't had any reason to…"

"Well, once me and North are done with our little chat with South, you're going to see a naval warfare paradise."

"Alright, sounds good, oh hey South."

South had just walked out of the bathroom, seeing North and Indiana there she sighed.

"What are you guys doing here?" She demanded.

"Well… I… uh… North?"

"South, we need to talk about your little scam you have going on here. You can't bribe people into being bad on the field so you can get on the board…"

"Oh, that… well… I umm, I just kinda… uuh…."

"South, when will you realize you have to earn your spot on the board, not steal it from others?"

"Come on North, do we really have to do this now?"

"Yes South, it's getting way out of control… and if the Director hears about it, you're fucked." Said North desperately.

"Alright, alright… I'll stop, but what the hell's HE here for exactly?"

"Oh, him… well I uh…. I kinda-" Stuttered North.

"I invited him here South." Said Connie, "I'm allowed to invite people to my own room aren't I?"

"Well, yeah but… just warn me next time okay? What if I was taking a shower huh?"

"Then I would have looked in the other direction until you had clothes on" Indiana said simply.

"Alright, fine… North, why don't you go… I thought you had a training session or something?" South said, clearly wanting her older brother to leave.

"Alright fine, I can see when I'm not wanted…" He said, standing up and walking out the door…

"Alright Connie… wanna come see what I was talking about?"

"Sure, let me just get some socks."

Connie goes over to her dresser as South drops herself onto her bed, sighing and picking up the TV remote. Indiana and Connie leave the room and walk down the hall towards Indiana's room, making small talk on the way.

"Alright Connie, here it is…" Indi said, opening the door.

"Oh my god… it's amazing….." Connie whispered.

Amazing it was, the whole left side of the room was covered in posters of war propaganda… but the right side was covered in posters and diagrams of battleships, cruisers, destroyers, and submarines; the bookcase was filled with books on naval warfare tactics and ships… there was even a case with a US sailors uniform inside.

"H-how did you get all of this?" Connie said, her mouth slightly open, gaping at all of the items.

"Well, the books I've been collecting for many years, same with the posters, and the uniform was my great-great-great-great-grandfathers…" He said, pointing to the picture of a middle aged man, standing aboard a ship labeled the USS Missouri.

"Hey Connie, wanna spar a bit with me Maine and Carolina?"

"Sure… as long as you promise not to knock me out with one punch."

"Don't worry, it's a 2v2, I'll be on your side, that way we stand a good chance." Indiana said, flashing a grin at Connie.
