Its been 2 weeks since the humanoids arrived and Dumbledore was pissed off. In his hand he had a letter informing him that there will be more muggles going to the castle. On top of that he was livid at what these idiots were doing to his castle grounds. Over the last 2 weeks he has witnessed 4 times the amount arrive with no possibility of leaving anytime soon and on top of that a LOT of these weird contraptions that are moving giant sticks of some form of metal, pushing around massive amounts of dirt, and digging into the ground.
"Will the structures be up before September 1?" asked Chief.
"Well chief, the vehicle bays will be complete by the end of the month, the ranges you mentioned will be down by the 20th, the Pelican pads wont be done until end of September, the MBT fighting emplacements are almost done and we used our high EX's to speed up digging out those fox holes." replied a soldier.
"I appreciate the help you gave my SPARTANS with the fox holes, honestly. Now with the Pelican Pads, why so long?" inquired Chief.
"Well, some people way up in the chain are very interested in the defense of this school, and we got orders to reinforce the pads to hold our D-11 Dozers. My guess is that if push comes to shove you can place your tanks on there for ranged defense before you have to fall back." answered the soldier.
"Very well Major. Thank you" said Chief.
As Master chief was walking away, he started to think of what dangers the forest will hold for his teams. As it was both War hammer and Death Watch were performing a recon mission into the forest in order to get a lay of the land and have been at it since dawn that morning.
"You know, our team is a kill team right." stated a female within the group.
"Your point Athena?" replied the apparent leader.
"Thor We kill sweet and simple, don't you think its sort of demeaning for us to be conducting a routine Recon mission?" asked Athena.
"You know, for being the smartest of our batch, you really are stupid." replied another female.
"Screw you tigress!" Athena Shot back.
"Shut up and listen!" growled the 4th member.
"We are mul…" started Athena.
"No Aphrodite is right, nobody make a move!" ordered a 5th person
After a few minutes of silence the team instantly formed a small perimeter and disappeared into their environment.
"Something isn't right out here, I can't figure out what, but something is out of place." remarked the 5th member over their taccom frequency.
"Chameleon, contact Death Watch tell them to watch their 6, update location and send status report to the TOC, Aphrodite use the satlink to get overhead visual of our AO." Ordered Thor.
"Thor, Zeus wants to talk…" "Patch him through Chameleon." interrupted Thor
"Thor, This is Zeus, over" he heard over the Comlink
"Zeus, this is Thor, go ahead
"Thor, this is Zeus, We are closing in on your position from the north, how copy over." radioed Zeus.
"Zeus, good copy out. Alright Warhammer, hold fire to the North, Death Watch is inbound." iterated Thor.
MEANWHILE.
"The forest is silent." stated a female
"That it is Gemini, we need to regroup with War Hammer and Proceed from their locale" stated a male.
"Vixen contact Thor." ordered a female
"On it." replied Vixen.
"Patch me through when you establish the comlink, Eagle, Empr…" Zeus started
"I'll take point, I just got their grid." replied a Female.
"Stay vigilant Empress, Eagle you take the Rear. Line on Empress, move out!" Ordered Zeus.
"Zeus, link established." Replied Vixen.
"Thor, This is Zeus over." Zeus spoke into the comlink. After a few tense minutes
"Zeus, this is Thor Go Ahead, Over." He Heard in reply
"Thor, this is Zeus, We are closing in on your position from the north, how copy over." radioed Zeus.
"Zeus, good copy out." with that reply the link was cut. "How does it look so far Empress?" asked Zeus.
"Nothing that I can see so far, and we are about 10 mikes from War Hammer." Replied Empress
With that being said Death Watch proceeded to tactically run to War Hammer's position.
