"This. Sucks." Falk told Zane as the two stood outside a massive hanger on the Coldbourne military base. Both were dressed in white military camo attire and had been armed with Scar-H assault rifles. They managed to sneak their way into the camp using their disguises and the two had been under cover since. The snow came down hard as Falk told Zane his comment, clearly he was unhappy with the situation.
[spoiler]for Zane[/spoiler]

"What, Falk no happy with playing dress up?" He joked as he checked his rifle. "Just keep acting normal, don't want to give away our identities just yet."
-
"Ya I get that. But I'd rather not be out in this cold." Falk replied with a shiver to Zane. "Good god it's cold..."
-
"Geez, you twilight people really hate the cold huh. It's not even that bad right now."
-
"It's terrible, Zane! I feel like my cheeks are being turned to popsicles!" Falk commented again with another shiver.
-
"Just gotta stick it out for a bit longer old friend. Just have warm thoughts, it helps a bit."
-
"Okay." Falk said. After ten seconds of silence he spoke, "Ya that didn't work."
-
"Yeah it did, for ten whole seconds it was actually peaceful. Why not try again, I'm sure it'll work this time."
-
Falk chuckled softly at that. "You're an ass." He called Zane with a smile.
-
"So what you're saying is that the student has become the master? Bout damn time." He said with a light chuckle.
-
"Well, I think stopping three apocalyptic events has made you a little wiser." Falk admitted.
-
"Definitely more patient, imagine a younger me trying to do this shit. I'd have already gotten spotted already."
-
Edited by Inflatablepants: 5/10/2017 8:54:10 PM"That makes two of us." Falk agreed. He looked around through the thick snow and tapped his toes to the ground. "Life has definitely changed a lot over these last two years hey?"
-
"That is has, but I'd like to think its changed for the better."
-
"...besides a tyrannical empire taking over the world, ya." Falk pointed out to Zane.
-
"Well that among other things. Let's hope this is the last time we gotta set the world straight yeah?"
-
"I'll drink to that. After we get out of this cold as hell weather that is." Then, Zane could hear a buzzing from Falk's chest pocket. Falk reached into the pocket and pulled out a tiny flip phone. He raised it to his ear. "Anne?" He said. After a moment of silence he spoke again. "Got it." He said as he closed the phone and put it in his chest pocket. "Anne says there's movement in the sky." He told Zane.
-
He aimed his rifle up and looked down the sights, scanning the sky for the movement. "So, what kind of helicopter do you think this guy flies?"
-
Falk put his hand to Zane's rifle and lowered it. "Remember what we said about growing older and wiser? You just aimed a loaded assault rifle at a helicopter in a military base... And if I'm guessing, probably something small."
-
"Safety still on, so I can just claim I heard a suspicious noise." He flicked the safety to off and rested the rifle against his chest.
-
"I...don't actually think that's how the world-" Suddenly Falk was interrupted by a soldier that came from behind them. "Hey! What's up with the aiming?" The soldier asked Zane.
-
"Heard a aircraft, so I thought it belonged to an enemy. Sorry about that, them dojo forces got me paranoid."
-
"Oh ya man those guys are nuts!" The soldier said. "Anyways! Boss is here. So be on fu[i]c[/i]king point got it?" The soldier told Zane as he walked away. Falk looked at the man walking away with squinted eyes. "How...how can someone be so stupid...?" He questioned.
-
Zane chuckled as he patted his friend on the back, then went back to standing guard. "Don't know, don't really care. Just know I can bullshit my way outta anything."
-
"Not everything..." Falk told Zane as he gestured his head to the sky. Zane saw a massive white figure move through the heavy snow, which revealed to be a large Cargo Chopper with miniguns on all sides. The copter landed and the propellers died down. Dozens of men moved out to the chopper. "We need to go join them." Falk told Zane as he gestured to the forces gathering by the helicopter.
-
"Damn that thing is huge..." He jogged over to where the rest of the forces were gathering and stood at attention.
