Eagle's Shadow Frey's Quarters
Confused as to why he is being lead into a room, Courage enters the sleeping/office quarters of the Commander. A decent size room, all it contains is a single twin size bed, a desk, and two bookshelves filled with various files. Letting Reagan and Courage enters first, Frey shuts the hatch behind him before turning to him.
"You maybe wondering why we brought you here." Frey starts.
"Between the both of you," Cpurage points between them, "Yes. So what is so important that you dragged me from having a simple day."
"Birds," was all Frey says in a grave tone.
If it was a normal person who was in the room besides Courage they would have look at the Commander as if he grew a pair of horns, but Courage is no ordinary person. Hearing the stories from BdrLine and having fought for his life several times against them, Courage understands what Frey is saying which confirms his suspicions ealier.
"It can't be...I was there when we killed off their leadership."
"Looks like they don't die easily from the numerous times they came back."
"Wait, so this expidition..."
"Is a scouting mission to search for them, we have several other teams conductin searches in the north and west."
Going over to one of the booksshelves, Frey retrieves a folder and places it on the desk. Extending his arm, Courage takes the invitation and looks through the files.
As he read through he asks Frey, "Why are you telling me this? Couldn't you ask maybe your Captain, or even the crew from the Saloon?"
"Your friends have done so much already, we wouldn't want to risk their lives again. But this is a covert operation, the less military involment the better."
"Okay, but why me?"
"You are one of the few who have knowledge of this group and actually fought against them. With you we have an edge."
Courage drops into the desk's chair as he takes in the information.
What to do, I'm on vacation for flak sakes. Hmmm, I can accept this since they don't need me back soon, but still my life is going to be on the line again.
Groaning Courage lays his head on the desk that gives off an audible thud. A few seconds pass where he stands up and looks at Frey.
"Can't believe I'm doing this, but I'm in. Just give me time to get ready."
Nodding, Frey lets Courage go as he exits out of the room. Once he is out of earshot Frey says to Reagan, "This is going to be one eventful trip isn't it."
Going over to his desk, he opens a drawer and pulls out a flask which he starts to drink out of.
Hanger Bay
Finding his way back, Courage finds Dalhia. He then pulls her aside, "Something has came up and I need to go back to the Wild Winds and get my belongings. I'll be back."
