Mario adjusts his gear over his shoulder, thinking. "Sirs, I can't think of anything that I need, other than access to the tank that I'll be driving out of there. I say lets go rock and roll."

Mario adjusts his gear over his shoulder, thinking. "Sirs, I can't think of anything that I need, other than access to the tank that I'll be driving out of there. I say lets go rock and roll."
Elinor nodded her thanks once more and settled the LAR-12 and its accessories with the rest of her gear.From behind the armorer's cage, Max Booty made an adjustment on his datapad. Then he respectfully lifted a beautiful LAR-12 rifle from its perch and handed it to Elinor along with its strap, 4 E-clips and pouches. He had no words at the moment. They were not necessary.
Elinor just smiled, touched by the other woman's concern but not wanting to break up the levity of the moment.Hitomi added. "That goes for you and Elinor. Who am I going to martially train with otherwise?"
Geared up and ready to go except for his gloves, he meandered over to Mario and Hercules. One glance at them and the fiery-eyed Jamaican's voice lit up. "Wat?! You ain't ready yet! Jamaican me crazy, boys! Get yo tanker booty ova to me workbench! Seein' if you kin improve de guns Booty lendin' you! Be makin' it snappy!" Although his words were directed at his A.T.A.C. brethren, he gave a sharp nod and glance to the T.A.S.C. lieutenants in the Wild Cards, granting equal permission.
Toph waggles a finger at Hitomi with a smile. "Don't you worry about that. I plan on coming back home, learning everything I can of your fighting style, then promptly give you a nice set of bruises as I happily kick your butt in a sparring match to repay all the lumps you have given me and Elinor!" She chuckles a bit. "As if that will happen anytime soon. But I'm still gunning for you, so watch your back."Hitomi added. "That goes for you and Elinor. Who am I going to martially train with otherwise?"
She bows her head in memory of her mother, off to fight for Earth and win the freedom of all Zentraedi, and her father, who had been shot down years ago in the Zentraedi Control Zone. "Don't worry, sir. I won't try to do my best, I will do my best, not just for myself or the honor of my parents, but for the whole team that is depending on me to pull a 110%. We'll get those tanks back."Professor Stein stepped forward to Toph. The old lion looked down to her and put one hand softly upon her shoulder. Then He glared at her. "If you do not come back healthy and whole, Miss Hitomi will be the least of your worries." He winked. "Do your mother and father proud, you little Muppet."
Ever since then, my callsign has been Scorch, in memory of that time. I still haven't lived that down, even if I like Muppet much more."
Toph smiles wide at the proclamation that her new call-sign is to be her old knickname of Muppet. She says, "So, we have a Muppet, Bruce Leeanne, and Bumper, flying into battle, carrying a trio of takers as cargo. What can possibly go wrong?"
For a moment, the feral Wolf crossed his visage, "That bad man will not be abducting or terrorising young men again."
Mario suddenly feels bad for making the assumption that it was a colleague. "Well, big guy, it sounds to me like you did the world a service in taking care of them, and you got Reggie out of there and back to his dad where he belongs."
The massively-muscled Jamaican replied in a tone that was as cool as ice. By his own definition, he was surprisingly irie given his earlier flight-related outburst in Big Bunker. "All is good in de world, wo-man." He used the word as a practiced title of respect. "Miss Muppet can fly us to da moon an' Booty be none da wiser.""How are you doing back there, corporal? We have nice, clear weather out this afternoon, so you are in for a treat of some great smooth flying."
