The Man of Iron Part 5
Well, this is a really short chapter. I'm not even thinking it should be a chapter, just an extension to Chapter Four. Comment your thoughts. Anyways, I have decided that I'll have a chapter for the other leader/supporting character guys in the 81st. The next chapter is going to be about Cobal, then to the assassin guy arriving. Anyways, I'll have another chapter up real soon I guess, I have Kotor to distract me from this, and I have friends wanting me to play Halo/MW2/BFBC2/KZ2 and the such with them, also distracting me, so...Yeah. I might even have the next part up later today. =P

"Atlas, I presume?"
Atlas looked up and saw Marie, he nodded and went back to work on his helmet. Marie frowned,
"And I have reason to believe your a Cald."
"Obviously, yes." Atlas said, he tapped his tatoo,
"Why are you here?" Marie questioned,
"Why should I tell you?"
"Because..." She gave it some thought, "I am a royal as well, Princess Marie Canter." She said,
"Are you being too bold?" Gauss whispered, Marie shook her head.
"Really now?...You now have my attention. You can start by telling me the system you people have." Atlas said, she smiled, she had him right where she wanted him. She began to tell him about the caste system, their history and culture before the humans came across them and invaded.
"Is the commander really having a chat with one of...them?" A trooper asked,
"The commander is a complecated guy. He is right on the border of corruption, I guess. But that's whats keeping us alive, his insane little mind." Tarkus said, Tarkus was a stone-cold sargent, veteran of many campaigns and battles, he used to be an Imperial Ravener. The Raveners are an Elite paratrooper corps. But, when Tarkus is drunk, he's one happy drunk, and thats what got him down into the 81st. Tarkus walked to Atlas,
"Have you noticed something odd with the raider's we defeated? They kind of just rushed us, I know their insane and all, but all they did was run to their deaths. To me it seemed like they were more like running then attacking." Tarkus said,
Atlas nodded, "Send Cobal and his team to track them, and tell them to report back to me if they find anything important."
"Yes sir." Tarkus said, he jogged over to Cobal, who was patrolling the perimeter.
"What is it?" He asked,
"Gather your team, your going on a recon mission to track the raiders." Tarkus said,
"About time." Cobal said, he muttered something into his squad-mic and four other scouts ran to them, they then ran into the forests, disapearing almost instantly.
"How do they do that...?" Tarkus sighed.
