(Author Note)I'm alive, I did say that I would be done with writing, and I think I am still, sorta, I think this is gonna be an exception, and a good one I hope, I have planned out a malleable story line, characters that I know I can write because they are based off of real people in my life, my friends. I can't promise that grammar will be amazing, it never really was my strong suit, but I can promise that I will try and make a story you guys can love or hate the choice is up to you.For now all I can say is onto the story

"Pilot Team Omega was a valuable asset to the 6-4, maybe even the greatest thing that happened to us, but like every pilot that's joined us they became family, these brothers of ours were strong in heart, will, and spirit. If not for this team of pilots I'd wager the militia would have suffered greatly, you want my opinion of Omega? They kicked some bloody arse." - Gates

Jayden's Log Entry: Me and my friends, Xavier, Adam, And Leonard we have always been close friends, we were all born on Harmony, when the IMC started to screw us over we had our doubts about the rebellion at first, but when we started winning and when we heard about the "fold weapon" the militia had saved us from, all doubts had vanished, we signed up, and we may have fought our superiors a little to stay together in a squad, we were rifleman at first, but turns out we were pretty damn good soldiers, so along comes a Trainer that is looking for more pilot recruits, let's just say he was more than happy to take us, our one condition, we stay together.Turns out we're naturals at being pilots and we started getting some nods from the head honchos. One in particular actually wanted us, the mercenary faction known as the 6-4.I'd heard about them, they didn't always work for the highest bidder, they had a set of morals, what fool would turn down that offer
.
Four Pilots stood together in the armory gearing up as was requested for their… interview of sorts.
One of them stood a higher then the other three, 6 feet and 7 inches geared up in a bulkier set of armor with a robotic arm on his back that was used to help quicken the transfer between switching/bolstering his weapon, along with a large cut out of fabric one would find on a ghillie suit surrounding his upper body, his armor a stoic black color. He had a semi tanned skin tone compared to the average Caucasian male, and a muscular physique one might mistake for a small bear if they were to look at him from far away.
He was of Native America, Scottish, and Nordic descent giving him his odd skin tone, his face depicted the same native Indian visage though his hair definitely came from his Scottish side, with short spiky dark brown hair and a large beard of the same color and brown eyes.
His helmet was rounded with a visor made of a vertical line with four other diagonal lines at each corner of the middle one, along with a few custom additions like the vertical brush like attachment at the crown of his helmet like that of a Roman centurion.
This large muscular individual was Jayden Hill, heavy weapons and team muscle amongst the four pilots his callsign given to him being Bear for… obvious reasons.
Armed with A-wall tactical with three of the shield wall making discs attached to his waist, he also had a small sentry turret on his back. Arming himself with a Spitfire LMG and a Mozambique shotgun sidearm, followed by his satchel charge ordinance.
One of the other pilots had no armor seeing as how he was a Simulacrum, a pilot who chooses to move his consciousness into a robotic body either by simple want or due to damage to their body, in this Pilots case he simply liked the idea of being immortal with a respawnable body. His Simulacrum chassis was almost skeletal in appearance with a rib cage shaped plated chest just beneath it was a metallic spine like piece connecting his upper body to his lower, said spine being surrounded in Kevlar vest like padding where his legs appeared as very agile with almost blade like feet.
His upper body excluding his chest was skeletal as well with his arms being armored until the elbow where his forearm had a metallic exoskeleton with a cutout in the center where a metal beam connected to his wrist where his fingers seemed blade like almost like claws, quite literally making knives for fingers but in an instance metal shell like pieces slid over the blades making them less lethal and more like simple robotic hands.
His head appeared skull like in every sense of the term the upper half an elongated metal skull with glowing blue optics in the sockets of the eyes the only difference was where one might see a mouth/jaw, instead it simply ended in a "chin" of sorts with metallic tusks jutting outward creating a menacing visage.
This was Adam Ortega Stealth And Close quarters combat expert while also playing the tech savvy individual of the team, they gave him the callsign "Glitch" due to to his tech know how and his phase shifting tactical, arming himself with a suppressed peacekeeper shotgun, a suppressed smart pistol, and a electric smoke grenade along with some Tick automated explosive drones.
Amongst the others one held a generic body builders physique being a bit more lithe in their build, covered in some regular medium body armor one would expect on a pilot he had a more retro helmet being that of a elongated square helmet with a "visor" of four diagonal lines in a tilted square shape, his face itself was slightly longer with pale skin of a Caucasian male dark brown hair, a clean shaven face freckled face, and blue eyes.
This was Leonard Swatosh or other wise known as "Loki" due to his callsign given due to his use of Holo pilots as his tactical, he was more or the less the generic gunner of his team but also the known as the mischievous trickster always cracking a joke in the fight. Choosing to arm himself with a R-201 assault rife, P2016 semi automatic pistol, frag grenades, and a radar jammer module
And lastly there was the team's sniper, Xavier Hines, covered in a light metal plated armor covering his vital points, and a custom helmet, rounded in a oval-like shape with a thin horizontal visor shaped to almost resemble a pair sci-fi styled sunglasses or goggles, Xavier himself had a pale skin tone with short yet messy blonde hair and blue eyes, clean shaven freckled face and when not wearing his helmet often seen with glasses, his callsign being "Cross" which is derived off of the word crosshairs and given due to his efficiency with snipers and marksman rifles.
Armed with a grapple hook as his tactical, a Longbow DMR sniper rifle as his preferred primary, a Wingman Elite, and a gravity star ordinance followed by a map hack radar pulse module.
(Author Note): Basically with Bear/Jayden his helmet is a modified variant of Kane's helmet with the Roman themed brush decoration, Loki/Leonard's gear is basically Droz's armor though with a dark blue coloration and a black helmet with the same blue accents, Xavier/Cross has armor based on the set from Black Ops 3 campaign known as the Rogue armor set accept the purple visor is a glowing blue like other pilot helmets
Bear slipped his helmet on before brushing his hand over mohawk like Roman brush attached his helmet with a chuckle, before he turned to long time friends.
"The Gods smile on us today my friends." He said in his naturally deep voice.
Most would be curious why Jayden/Bear spoke this way, to put it simply he was rather in touch with the Nordic side of his heritage, placing partial belief in his ancestors culture.
"That or we are just that freaking great." Leonard said in response censoring himself as he chose to never curse becoming a never ending joke amongst his friends.
"Divine intervention or not, stay frosty, and bring your all and we will be the newest pilots in the 6-4." Adam had said his voice distorted slightly in a robotic fashion.
"Meh, I have the will and drive to succeed, but best of all, I got a gun." Xavier said with a smirk loading a magazine into his DMR with a audible clicking noise.
Silence then fell upon the armory as the four pilots finished gearing up before they made their way to the training deck where Gates leader of the 6-4 stood on a balcony looking over a small holo arena and a separate area filled with sim pods.
Gates then turned around upon the approach of the four pilots crossing her arms over her chest looking at the them with a seemingly judging stare her her face and expression hidden by her helmet.
"Welcome Pilots, I'm Commander Gates." She said before placing her hands behind her back and walking from side to side while she spoke, though halting mid step before looking to the group pilots.
"But you can just call me Gates." She said suddenly in a lot less of a formal voice before resuming her militaristic pacing.
"I'm told that you'd make a fine edition to the 6-4, but I will be the judge of that." She said.
"The 6-4 is family, and a family doesn't each other down, we strive to do all that we can for one another, and to never let our brothers and sisters down, we may be mercenaries, but we are different than the rest, we don't always work for the highest bidder, we work for the frontier itself, sure we like to get paid, but if need be we work for free." She continued.
"Jayden Hill, acting pilot of a Ogre class Legion chassis, your team mates call you Bear, and I see why." She said turning to the largest pilot.
With a wave of her hand a projector came to life and depicted battle footage of the pilot in question tearing through grunts and specters with his bare hands and head, literally his head being seen head butting someone to death, followed by more footage of him in a few gun fights specifically showing his prowess is advancing and holding points of interest.
"With you your strength and ferocity truly are your greatest attributes, using overwhelming force to advance into seemingly highly defensible position with ease, and then claiming these points as yours, not to shabby mobile defense I must say." She said then turning to the Simulacrum.
"Adam, they call you Glitch, it's catchy and I think it's a good representation of how you fight, you use confusion and destruction from within targeting weak points to hinder or even decimate your opponents, not to mention you are an absolute nightmare when you put some effort in stealth." She said as footage played of Adam messing with IMC machinery followed the explosion of a facility and of him literally putting his arm through someone with his knife like hand from behind them.
"Leonard they call you Loki, I approve, your straight forward in your approach using the classic skill most pilots have, yet you also have a uncanny ability in deception and misdirection, the way you work with holos it is beautiful if I do say so myself." She said and footage of said pilot played of fighting through a massive force of grunts though most of them where shooting in the wrong place at holo pilots as the real Leonard dispatched them as he saw fit.
"And lastly, Xavier your friends here call you Cross, I don't fully understand why But is sounds cool sure, but what I can say, is the way you perform the the role of marksman, it's a bloody art form." She said simply as footage of the sniper played making some impressive long shots followed by some quick draws with his signature wingman elite.
"We only accept the most elite pilots here." She began as she started walking again.
"And I have to say, you damn sure meet the criteria." She said in a rather fond voice.
Turning to look at the pilots she smiled behind her helmet before putting on a threatening stance.
"Like I said the 6-4's a family, if you break our rules then I'll kick your arse understood?" She said in a threatening voice.
"Yes Ma'am!!" All four Pilots shouted in unison.
"Then welcome to the 6-4." She said relaxing her posture and putting on a more inviting one.
Adam then proceeded to high five Jayden who laughed in excitement and si ply brought the other two into a bear hug crushing the life out of them.
Pilot Team Omega just joined the Big Leagues.
