They finally arrive at the base camp. Suffice to say, the camp is rather mess than regular army had. But for prisoner such as 9999, this is normal. More tidy in fact than his old cell. Now that he know where he belong now, he didn't have a clue at all what to do next. There is a bunch of people who seems sticking out, enjoying their own little group. And also a big man with eye patch with number 100 on his uniform. He roar like a lion, even 9999 can hear it from where he stand.
"excuse me"
Greeted with such a manner felt alien to 9999. There, a man with medium black hair, black eyes, with uniform same as 9999. unlike him, the man has 7 on his.
"do you know where the captain of this squad?"
"no. i just thrown here just a minutes ago. now that you mention it, i should look for the big man too..."
"let's ask around. maybe she know?" said 7 point toward a woman with strange hair color and number 13 on her uniform.
"why not"
Both approach the woman who were sitting on crates. As soon as 7 tap her shoulder, he is greeted with a sharp blade on his throat.
"ah!? sorry! i thought..."
"it's alright. anyway, do you know where the captain of this squad is?" ask 7
"captain? well..."
The woman fell silent.
"is there a trouble?" said a deep voice behind them
It's a tall Darcsen with number 6 on his uniform. Based from appearance, he seems to be a tank pilot of sort.
"guess we cause a scene huh? that aside, do you know the big guy of this squad? or captain" ask 9999
"captain? well, he just shot down in our last operation not too long ago" said 6
"what? damn. guess we need to wait for further instruction until our captain replacement are here" said 7
"actually, no need for that formal stuff. this is nameless, we do have our custom" said 6
"like what?" ask 7
"captain election"
"guys" 9999 interrupt "i keep hearing annoying noise from one place. what is that?"
"one moment" said 6 before going to to answer the radio. He seems to be debating for a while before let out a sigh. Scratching his head, he going back to the two.
"guess we can wait for the captain announcement later. there is a mission just a moment ago. imperial were crossing the border. the number ain't that big and no heavy armor on sight"
"hey, we can't go in there without captain"
"i know. but we gotta do our job ASAP or our demise is thrown at us later" said 6 with grunt
"then do you mind if i take the lead?" 7 rise his hand
"you? well i don't mind but can you tell me at least why?"
"i was captain of regular army before. i only have my words but i assure you i'm legit captain of my former squad" said 7
"you're not thrown here because you losing many men on one battle do you? or going berserk at superior?" said 9999
"i'm not. anyway 6, can you tell the other we got mission? i just newcomer here so i don't know much about this squad. i wait at rendezvous point"
The battlefield is much to say a somewhat open. But around the corner, bushes and rocks as cover were scattered. Speaking of open wide, 9999 who arrive first, see a dust from distance from where he came.
"7, they arrive" said 9999
"roger that. anyway, i'm Kurt Irving"
"Anastagi. not my real name but i take that after seeing vandalized wall back in prison"
"you don't have one?"
"nah. my childhood is foggy memory you see. i remember walking on the street before thing gone dark. maybe i got hit by tram or something...but if i did, i should be at hospital instead"
Their small talk stop when their comrade arrive. 6 coming along with small tank. 13, who they first met, also join with scout rifle in hand. And a Darcsen woman with number 1 on her armor with unusual weapon. And that is all.
"uhh 6, didn't mean to call you lazy fuck but you really call them out right? or this is how nameless roll?" ask Anastagi
"well, they used to follow their old captain so...all of this sudden mission and appearance of unknown figure taking big role is kind of...unsettling for them" said 6 with uneasy tone
"damn...enemy number, ours, damn it!" Kurt began to curse
"hey, you okay? don't tell me you fuming just now"
"give me a room" 7 take a leave for a moment.
"6, is there something we should know about this squad? this ain't feel like we are squad who ready to take on any task. but rather please butcher us"
"it's trust issue. i frown too but i can't deny their reason either. you can't trust new guy to lead you unless you got feedback"
"feedback? isn't soldier supposed to be signed here, and there, follow the order, no shit asked?"
"on regular, yes. here, we...kind of having favorite"
"oh son of a fuckwad..." mutter Anastagi "this ain't prison but the favorite stuff is really bring me back"
"guys, i got a plan" said Kurt who just coming back
"you did? please don't tell me you're high"
"high? anyway, listen..."
First, they hide among bushes. 6 however need to go on ahead since the imperial sent here only scout. When the enemy focus is on the tank, Kurt and other will pick enemy one by one. Suffice to say, the fight goes smooth. Anastagi who never held a gun before felt out of it. The only weapon he ever had is either shiv or fork. And to add luxury, silver fork.
"i didn't shot anyone in our group right?" ask Anastagi through radio
"relax. if there is something come up, we already told you"
"7! bad news! 2 tank inbound!" said 13
"2? damn! we only have 6 to handle them!" mutter Kurt "spin around them and throw some grenade right at their radiator. move!"
Another thing that Anastagi afraid of is blown himself. Along the way, he tried to figure out how grenade works and based from experience, makeshift explosive ain't that much power. But the gun powdered stick in his hand is serious business.
"I'm taking heavy fire here!" said 6
"i'm out of grenade!" said 13
"sorry buddy! me too!" said Anastagi
"damn it! i only have 1 grenade left too!"
With accurate throw, Kurt manage to crush one by blowing the radiator. However the other tank still remain and 6 condition is rather grim since there is smoke start coming out from the tank.
"6! evacuate!"
Right when he ready to leave, the enemy tank explode to bits. This left everybody confused as 6 were planning his jet. As the dust clearing, 1 stand there with her weapon let out smoke from firing the missile.
"i swear that thing shoot bullet before. does she shoot the glow part of the tank all this time?"
"negative. i see smoke trail before the tank blown. it's a rocket" said 13
"but how? i see it with my eye too. i thought that thing is machine gun" said 7
"well, 1 is special you see..." said 6 "most battle we won before is because her effort"
"then why not point her as captain then? easy right?"
"well try to ask her that. you'll see" said 6 with nervous laugh
on the way back...
"alright 7, since you prove yourself as capable captain, let me introduce myself. i'm Gusurg. been long time piloting a tank so no worry on my side"
Anastagi laugh "just introducing yourself by making it felt like royalty? come on"
"well, that's the custom after all. i hate it too because it make me feel like stiff person"
"sepaking about custom. can you tell me more?"
Gusurg scratch his head "well you see, this squad simply said the most disoriented frontline ever. not to mention what this squad consist of. since most of us likely get killed, we start to refer ourself with number. some people use it as excuse so they can forget who they lost. but being called by number also one of the sign of trust. to you right now, name is just something on ID. but here, it's like a dogtag of trust"
"so the people who think we worth their salt will introduce themselves? well back in prison we got number to refer ourselves to hide what kind of madness in shape we are out there. if they know you are somebody, you tend to invite more people to kill you for some reason"
"actually, it's all the same. some people here after all the wanted man most of it. so what if you realize that you gonna fight alongside child murderer and lead by drug dealer supremacist? nobody want to have that merry man so hence the name hiding. with that in mind, giving name mean give their identity with certain risk of uncalled reaction. some people are very sensitive you know"
"then if i wanna be captain, that mean i need their foundation of trust first then?"
"wait, you wanna be captain? man you moving fast!" said Anastagi
"hey i said if. IF"
"well if you ask me, i won't mind after seeing what you did in our last battle"
"really?"
Gusurg sigh "i gave you my name remember?"
"gee thanks"
"alright then. perhaps you should talk with those two" said Anastagi pointing toward the two woman
"right, those two..."
"good luck getting 1 attention. i warn you she is stubborn as bull" said Gusurg
"we will see about that...or maybe after i see everyone in our squad" said Kurt
