Nara checked her sniper rifle after she had sat down and buckled up. Then she checked the rest of her weapons before putting them down and leaning back in her seat. She closed her eyes but didn't fall asleep, but no one could tell because she had never taken off her helmet. She liked to keep to herself sometimes.

Austin seemed to have overlooked the accent before, but now noticed its prominence. "So you're French? I hadn't noticed. Pretty cool. Of course, we always think anyone with an accent is "cool," right?" Austin laughed. "So what do you specialize in? I'm more reliant on the tech I develop, myself."

Austin noticed Nara had been ignoring the team since he arrived. Scooting closer to Deirdre, he whispered in her ear, "What's her problem?"

Declan smiled at Austin then followed after the rest of his team. Sitting opposite Nara and buckled up. He studied her for a while "umm hey" he said to her since she didn't say much.

Nara looked up at Declan, surprised he was talking to her." Hi." She said.

Deirdre chuckled at Austin's comment about her accent being cool. "Tech, huh? Well I specialize in parkour, stealth and infiltration for the most part." she turned slightly as Austin whispered to her and muttered back. "I'm not entirely sure. She has been like that since she arrived." Looking up to Nara, she smiled as Declan began to talk to her. "Bonjour. You seem very quiet. I don't believe I ever caught your name!" she asked Nara politely.

"I didn't say anything about my name. It's Nara Misuna." Nara said. She stayed leaned back in her seat.

"No you didn't, hey Nara, nice to finally get your name" he smiled at her slightly looking nervous as the thought of being in an aircraft made him sick "so what do you specialise in?"

"I agree, Declan." she smiled "Nara... Pretty name." Deirdre looked to Declan and saw the look on his face then realizing she had a paper bag on her. No idea why she had it. Probably forgot to take it out of her utility belt, last mission. "Here." she took out the paper bag and held it in the direction of Declan. "Forgot I had one. Take it so you don't make a mess."

"Parkour, Deirdre?" Alain asked as the aircraft fired up its engines. "I tend to practice some parkour during missions, but my armor prevents large jumps. I do well in speed, however." He tightened his armor and checked his gear. Turning his attention back to the whole group, he said "Allright folks, here's a comm's set." He gave each member an earplug. "Make sure to switch it to channel S-1. It's our unit's channel. No-one but us and Massey have acces to it."

(on an off-topic not, Fira, I practice Parkour in real life :p )

Nara shrugged." I'm a sniper." Since they already knew her name, she might as well take off her helmet. So she did, her very long blue hair tumbling down her back. If she stood up it would have touched the ground. She opened her eyes, revealing her blue irises. She looked a little young for her age.

Deirdre smiled and nodded. "Wow, it's awesome to see another who at least practices it. We really are almost like siblings!" she chuckled as she switched her earpieces channel to the correct one. Catching a glimpse of the blue hair she turned to Nara and smiled. "Wow. Your hair is really long! I'm jealous." she seemed to gape at the length and really jealous. Her job prevented her from growing her hair out that long.
(OMG So lucky. :'D I wish I could do that but I think I'm not physically active enough for that.)

"Problem is, every time I cut it, it just grows back." Nara sighed, running a hand through her hair.

Deirdre looked at Nara's hair curiously. "Why is that?" she asked as she lifted one leg onto her other and rested it.

(everyone is physically fit :p if you want it, just start training, you'll get there eventually!)

(I can just feel my bad knees dying now )

Nara shrugged." No idea. I don't even know what I am."

Scratching her arm, Deirdre tilted her head slightly and stared at Nara for a little bit. "I'm not quite sure either. I've seen a lot of specimen in my life but I'm not sure if I've ever heard of a race that does that." her mind wandered off a moment thinking about the topic. "Huh...Who knows. You might find out one day." she smirked with a light giggle.

"My memories were erased for a reason but at this point in my life, I don't care." Nara leaned back in her seat with a slight smile.

The engines started and the light aircraft lifted from the ground. The hatch above them opened and they emerged from it, the sunlight streaming through the little windows in the side.

As it started flying the nessecary distance, Alain went through the briefing again once more.
"Allright, we will touchdown on the roof of the old TV4 building complex. As soon as we touch down, I want you and you-" He pointed at Nara -"To get to the eastern end of the complex and scan the streets for hostile movement. Don't shoot anything untill I give the signal! Meanwhile, the rest of us will descend five floors, where Deirdre will take post scanning the northern streets. Austin, Declan and myself will proceed downstairs and take point. We will advance how the streets, adjusting our moves on the way the enemy reacts to our assault." He looked outside for a second. "We will come in low from the west, so our landing should stay unnoticed. We will remain in stealth as long as possible. Do NOT go loud unless I tell you to do so, allright?" He looked around the transport bay for confirmation on the others.

Declan took the paper bag feeling a little wheezy but not as bad as before.

As Alain gave on orders he looked over his zanpaktou and nodded in confirmation of the plan "OK, I'm set"
