The crack of rifles, the muffled bellowing of grenades, sounds all too familiar to the young scout. No time for hellos, no time to get familiar with his new squad mates, no time to lay out a plan, but that was fine. He was here to do a job, and he would make sure he was the best to ever do it. Clenching his fists with searing eagerness, Damien peered towards the far streets, just waiting for Imp scouts to pop up. Suddenly, orders. Damien stood at attention and nodded in compliance as he received his first orders with his new squad. Nodding once again and giving a stern, "Yes sergeant.", Damien swung his Gallian-X1 from his back and checked his sights, made sure it was in prime condition. He hadn't seen anyone else with an X1 yet, they were pretty scarce. Corporal Krauss instructed the upstart to accompany him, and Damien readied himself for action. "Yes sir. Good luck guys." he spoke, turning back, looking at his fellow squad mates before picking up the pace right behind Krauss. The tower was tall and narrow, but they made it to the top on no time. Lifting himself out of the hatch, Damien set his rifle down and picked up the radio, looking out into the network of streets and alleyways, very similar to Vasel. There were small squads everywhere, with large columns of soldiers sticking to the large roads that ran through the middle of the city. The advancement was passing the plaza right by, but that didn't stop squads of scouts and troopers from branching off towards them. Damien peered off in the distance, counting heads and figuring distances, lifting the radio to his mouth, "Alright sergeant I've got two small squads of troopers and scouts headed your way from the east, one has a lancer with them. The armory is just around the corner from you guys and looks like it's untouched. Our forces are retreating west but taking potshots when they can." Looking, scanning. "Sarge, scouts in the alleyway on the right, heads up! Coming right towards you guys!" he spoke as intensely as he could without shouting. Lowering the radio, Damien turned to Krauss, "Sir, two scouts in the alleyway on the right, you have the shot. We gotta try for the top of the clock tower after this, we'll see so much more. That's if they don't have someone up there already."
