The cars parked by the edge of the forest and the lookout team stayed back. Drones were sent ahead, monitored by comms officers in the cars and others at Fortress Four.
The teams separated and walked into the forest on foot. Sunshine and Hades went with team zero, naturally.
"Stay behind us." Major Elio suddenly came up on their team from behind.
"What the hell!" Nimo exclaimed, whirling around with her weapon in hand. "What are you doing here Major Elio?"
Major Elio stepped in front of Sunshine, playing the role of her personal bodyguard. "This team has six women. You also have the leaders of our base, the two people that are supposed to help us protect our families if this damn apocalypse is real. If you think that I am leaving their hands in the lives of the softer sex, you are mistaken soldier." He answered.
Erica, Nimo and the other female soldiers sneered or shook their heads.
"Fuck you Elio." One of them said.
