In the Woodlands... (Mandalorian Outing I)

[Phil]

The dropship hovered over a small clearing as the side doors opened up and some rappels released so the passengers could slide down to the surface below. They were all informed of what they were doing here for the next two weeks, to bring what they would need to survive, and to know that this experience may result in severe injury, or even death if one was not carefull.

"That's your cue! Double time it! Down to the surface ASAP!"

Roxton yelled to the few Recruits and other Mandalorians there. He was in his Prime armor and in charge of the Outing they were all on. The rappels were there if it was the only choice they had, should they of had jet packs, repulsers or something else to safely land below, they were welcome to go for it. However, some of the recruits had none of that and instead went to the rappels and started to go down to the surface below. Roxton then went and waited for the others to proceed aswell.

Jenna watched as the recruits one by one went for the Rappelling lines, she had taken her trusty grav chute with her, she wasn't sure if she would need it nor, she patted her REC-74 as she made sure the strap was secure on it, grabbing her ruck sack she walked to the edge hooked it up to a Rappelling line and kicked it out the side of the drop ship, then she stepped out into the empty air and plummeted towards the planet, using the glide wings on her suit to take her away from the rappelling recruits, last minute she pulled her chute and landed in the clearing, gathering up her chute and repacking it, she went and gathered her ruck sack and sat down to wait.

(ooc: so we will or will not have weapons? also, alot of her gear has links to it on her profile under the gear spoiler in the information spoiler))

That hum of the engines, purring tenaciously as a sweet liaison between way up here and way out there; it was musical. Roxton Dagger, one of those that truly welcomed Mitya's convergence into the ranks as a general was leading this little outing. In her backpack she garnished rations, medical supplies, munitions, and finally a few feminine hygiene products in the event of emergencies. On her breastplate was sheathed one of her two 22t4 holdout blaster, the other being sheathed on the side of her pack. On her waist was sheathed her m1 vibroblade, her back- the conscript carbine that she prided, but within her hands was one of her favored weapons: a modified Kx-80 blaster rifle; gunmetal grey with white trim, extended mags, high-tech convertible scope that could change from sniping to mid-range to close range, and a replaced stock for more 'feminine' compatibility. Across her armor was a bandoleer strap with an array of both tactical and thermal detonators. Her

It was truly a graceful planet, nice pine forests all around with valleys and rivers. It was the cold season, snow hadn't began quite yet but frost was nipping at the wilderness, and the green grass seemed to turn almost white with the frost of the afternoon sill lingering from this morning. The ground, a frozen dirt was awaiting her plunge out of the dropship and into the drop zone down below. She readied herself, weapons aside she took the rappel with both hands tightly and wrapped the cord around her leg as she slid down appropriately.

Upon contact with the ground she assumed a crouching position, checking her points with her Kx-80, although this was merely practice she still followed every bit of procedure to the point...

She awaited the rest of them to arrive at the bottom. Jenna seemed to arrive immediately behind her with one more person tying up the line.

The flight in had not been kind to Delmon. The young mandalorian had never been fond of space flight, a fact he begrudgingly kept to himself. It wasn't so much the speed of the craft or the immense area space had to offer, but rather the helplessness of being cooped up inside a tin can with someone else holding his life in their hands. This fact agitated him more than anything, but those feelings soon faded when the dropship doors opened to reveal a beautiful forest landscape.

Delmon had known the destination, which was one of the reasons he had actually agreed to go on the outing, but actually seeing it made it all the more worth it. The wilderness no matter the planet was like home to him, although nothing would beat the lush jungles of his Dxun.

The mandalorian elite was sparsely equipped, not requiring the majority of his gear for a stay in the wilderness. The planet below would provide all he would need for food, warmth, and shelter. His assault rifle still rested back at the barracks, only his random assortment of knives, his twin beskad, and his pistol remained on his person.

Taking a deep breathe as he looked out the opening before him Delmon hooked a drop line to his belt, gripped the rope tightly, and stepped off the ledge to the forest below. Once he was ground side the mandalorian quickly unhooked the line from his belt and stepped out of the way of the rappel lines to avoid having someone drop on him. Instantly he began surveying his surroundings, quite oblivious to those around him.

When everyone was down there, Roxton grabbed the rope and zip lined downwards all the way as his feet hit the ground. Once everyone was off, the Pilot flew off and was soon out of sight, his orders were to return in two weeks to pick them up unless called in for emergency. Once he and everyone had landed in the clearing and

"Delmon, Jenna, take two of them and secure the perimeter! Mitya, make sure all the supplies, food and weapons are gathered. Akela, you're going to help make sure the recruits and privates are gathered and make sure they fall in line. Once objectives are completed, return and we'll begin."

 

[T.J]

Slamming his fist against his armored chest, Delmon nodded as he responded.

" Consider it done ner'vod. "

With that said Delmon turned and disappeared into the forest around the forming group of Mandalorians. His path would lead in an ever increasing circle around his fellow warriors until he was roughly a mile away. If unhindered, he would go in the opposite direction in the same circling pattern until he returned to the group. He stayed low and he moved silently, taking on the mentality of a predator and moving as such through the forest underbrush.

Jenna saluted Roxton, pointed at two of the recruits and motioned for them to move out, she and the 2 with her headed in the opposite direction as Delmon, moving out to about a mile away she set up a perimeter watch, signaling 1 recruit to take up a sniping position in a tree, and for the other recruit to move up and take up a guard position behind a boulder, she her self knelt on the ground, her left shoulder against the tree the recruit was in, her rifle at the ready, her HUD scanning the area.

"Northern perimeter secured sir."
