Gabriel watched as the pilots gathered, as expected each of them was young, just barely an adult, but still it disgusted him that in all the time that had passed, it was still seen fit to give what is basically children a weapon of mass destruction and send them off to battle. It was that way when he was first selected as a pilot, and it didn’t seem as many things had changed since then. He shook himself out of thought and took a look around the hanger noticing the multiple units of armed guards ready to shoot at the slightest sign of trouble. “Looks like they really don’t like unexpected company.” He thought to himself as he walked over to the group and listened in to the conversation. Another warning and another mention of how little they trusted the new pilots, nothing unexpected coming from military personal dealing with an unknown force. Then it was time for questions and Gabriel listened to the others not really having any questions of his own.
