"...Mission...Accepted..."

As Jake followed in line with the rest towards the Virtual Training room area, he thought about something he did before they left their little group meeting. He had written an "electronic note" on his data pad and briefly held it in front of Elora only when no one else could see it. The note said the following:

[i]"Don't answer. Don't acknowledge this message but keep it in mind should the situation arise. Based on "electronic data", I have concerns about the pilot you call cadet Wilhem aka "Bug". It suggests that he has possible mental issues. Perhaps I'm wrong since I only just assigned to your squad and thus have zero "personal data". Just be aware of it if it shows during this test."[/i]

Normally, such things he'd keep to himself unless ordered to so but...due to "prior experiences" perhaps...he felt that she should know about his "concern" at the very least. But even Jake knew there WAS a difference between "electronic" and "personal" data.

If you had one, you don't always know the other "half".

Then, when they arrived, Jake then sat down at his assigned Virtual Cockpit seat. Then...he briefly took off his personal helmit.

For a moment...he blue eyes scanned the whole room...as if he were memorizing positions of perhaps people and things...

Then, putting his personal helmet on the ground near him and even checking his attached combat knife and firearm were secured, he then put on the "Virtual Helmit".

As his framewerk materialized into the virtual battlefield, he merely stood there as Loerenzo's instructions to not take any specific actions till told so.

Though as he listened over the com links, there were those that...bended the rules through what perhaps would be called "psychological warfare"...though some of it sounded more like "trash talking" or "goofing around".

However...the new late addition "element" of a lone framewerk in the battlefield on a "third" team just showed Jake the "unpredictable" nature of a battlefield itself.

Several other individuals seemed interested in their own ways but Jake needed "data" on this individual. So he contacted the pilot and asked the basics.

[color=f7976a]"Pilot on third team. Name. Rank. Framewerk ID. What is your given primary objective in this battle"[/color], Jake asked in a rather emotionless voice.
