With a massive thud and a cloud of dust, three Leos touched down at the hastily created airfield that the Evacuation fleet camped nervously around. One Leo was armed to the teeth with various weapons literally strapped onto it's frame while the other two simply carried a massive box between them, containing the entire cache of weapons that couldn't be hauled by any other means, and one Private Mike Rodgers. After settling into a "hangar" made of camouflage netting, the pilots headed out to report to the fleet commander. As the group, led by Derek Carter, exited the net-hangar, a mechanic shouted at them.
"Hey! How do you expect us to service this thing with all this stuff tied over the access panels!?" The mechanic yelled, Derek stopped and looked back.
"Feel free to take them off, we only tied them on because they didn't have a big enough box for all of it!" He shouted back, waving at another mechanic who was motioning as though to ask if he could pilot the Leo to remove the excess weaponry. "Hey!" He shouted as his lack of direction occurred to him, "Which way to the guy in charge?"
