Despite the ambush in the jungle, Misfit was still ordered to go out on their patrol. Luckily for them neither Kovic nor the Camera crew was there to verify that they had decided to skip the sector they should've stopped at. Unfortunately, they were there now.
NATO adopted a new policy in the jungle. In order to better understand the people, they would deploy Special Region natives to help fight. This meant that the lizard/snow queen would be assisting in the fight. The snow queen was out-of-place in the hot jungle. It was almost strange to see a normally cold-weather built creature out here. And so too were all the dragons. But Q didn't complain, 'Daisy Cutter' was right there. While the rest of Misfit sat inside of the camp awaiting for more orders, they could easily see Q and Daisy Cutter playing fetch like…
"…Like that damn thing's a dog," Bubba muttered, "Playing with 'im like he a dog."
"It acts like one, might as well be." Flint said, also looking. Daisy licked the side of Q's face, all the while Q was bubbling with laughter.
"I never seen a dog breath fire, or fly, or have spikes running down its back," Bubba said.
Hezekiah walked through, "Give the poor girl a break, will you? She likes Daisy. Daisy at least puts a smile on some of our faces, right? I mean look at her," Hezekiah pointed at the dragon on its back, looking up at Q with big eyes, "Daisy's adorable."
"So we lost Q and Hezekiah to insanity? You really went off the deep end man." Flint said, inhaling his cigar.
"Says the guy who tried to hook up with Filo."
"You still remember that?"
"Like it was yesterday! As far as I'm concerned, you don't have a say in any of this. You talk about how Q likes Daisy as a pet-," Hezekiah paused a pointed at Flint, "You tried to get comfy with a bird!"
"When you put it like that anything sounds bad…"
Bubba started laughing in the background, "What are you laughing at B-man? Wasn't it you who was naked in his underwear when we were stranded?"
"Sure as hell I was, still aint worst than whatever the fuck you were trying to do with Filo." Bubba laughed even harder.
"The two of you could kiss my ass," Flint said.
The door to the barracks opened, Kovic. Misfit had gotten a break from him for a while. But not anymore, after the ambush High Command felt the need to re-assign Kovic to ground combat. Hezekiah could hear Kovic grumble something under his breath, something along the lines of, Worthless Misfit cant do shit right, but Hezekiah decided not to ask.
"Misfit, we've gotten orders from Command. They want us to do a joint military operation in the jungle." Kovic announced to the three.
Hezekiah nodded, and scratched his chin, "With who? The lizard queen is already working with us, Right?"
Kovic shook his head, "Not with any local nation. With a nation from Earth. High command wants control of an area in the middle of the Jungle in the Echo-Sierra region. Hellfire Junction, a vital center of trade at a crossroad of two major highways. The village surrounding the junction, Mai Lai, has been under control of OPFOR Guerillas for too long. The war cannot continue until control of Mai-Lai and Hellfire Junction is in the hands of allied forces."
"So who is helping us?" Flint asked.
Kovic sighed, muttered something else under his breath.
He looked up at the rest of Misfit, "China."
