It still felt weird working with people who had technically been his enemy 48 hours ago, but if the aliens didn't care what nationality it victims were, who was he to care what nationality the man fighting next to him was. "Lets see now, severe burns to your left calf do to alien weaponry. Well the good news is that we don't have any infection or other complications. Is there anything I can get you?"

Well, It be kind of hard to use medical reports if they didn't say who they were about. As for your leg, well that's going to hurt for a little bit considering that you suffered third degree burns to it."

''Thanks,'' she said back. ''It was quite the team effort. I'm just glad it's over. As for Thor, I read up on him. I'm pretty sure he's more then capable, seeing as he's the size of a small elephant,'' She took a plate and started to take bits of this and that. Soon, her plate was like the rests: Full of curry and rice, with a side of naan bread. It was divine, seeing as she hadn't eaten in twelve hours, and needless to say, she was stupidly hungry. Her first bite was akin to all of the gods of the world, the good ones, gently lifting her to the holy lands. In other words, she was a big fan.

Corporal Valentin Ivanov
"Naming guns when they tell you what to take on ops?" Valentin queried. "You might not get to use it every time, but I guess everyone has their preferences. I prefer to keep mine nameless." He gestured at his injured calf. "They say I'll be out for ten days and it'll hurt like hell. I think I'll need that rest after an op like that. Not every day you get to shoot an alien in the face."
Valentin smiled sadly at the mention of his family. It had begun to sink in that he might never see them again, and if he died, they might not even know what happened to him. His own SEAL unit back at Virginia Beach didn't even know where he was - only that he had been "reassigned." They probably assumed that he was now working for the CIA's Special Activities Division or some other secretive unit.
"My parents left Vladivostok in 1991, right before the Soviet Union fell. They had been saving up for over year for a flight to America, and one night they grabbed everything they owned and left. They got on a flight to San Diego, where I was born the next year. We've tried contacting our relatives back in Russia to no avail. As far as I'm concerned, I don't have any family other than my parents."

Emilie Girard
Emilie wheeled a now bandaged Artem out of the small treatment room into the larger main bay to see that the other members of Hatchet were being attended to. She smirked upon seeing the array of food that had been brought up for them, her stomach immediately growling in desire. “You’re quite popular up there, non?” She said to Artem, jokingly and half-wondering whether his hunger would be able to win over the pain of swallowing. “Alexei, I’m all finished up with this one – some painkillers, bed rest and hydrating fluids should do the trick.” Emilie yawned loudly, stretching her stiff limbs. “Anyone else you want me to take a look at?”

Chef Sekar Paquet
Dinner had been a great success, and Sekar left the cafeteria feeling quite satisfied. As she made her way back to her quarters for the night, she encountered a much taller, stern-looking man who hadn't been in the dining hall. The military bearing gave away what he was, even with or without a uniform (which was not apparent).
"New?" she asked, and without waiting for an answer beckoned him to follow her. Her relative lack of height made her seem quite fast by comparison as she took several strides for every one of Patrick's. Lieutenant Thorsson she knew was on mission, from the PA announcement. Most of the others who weren't in training seemed to be up in the medical bay, so she went there, figuring Lieutenant de Ruyter was looking after the injured. She peeked inside the infirmary's doors, then waved Patrick up and pointed at the brunette wearing the blue beret.
"That is Lieutenant de Ruyter, one of the team's 3 officers."

"Alright, everyone ready up!"
Chloe picked up an MP5, slinging it about her shoulder. All the guns in the MILES room were custom made, with receivers unable to loaded standard mags, instead only a custom ATHENA mag that could only be loaded with blanks; to avoid any accidental live-fires. Various handguns, SMG's, carbines, assault and battle rifles, machine guns and shotguns hung in a large weapons locker that spanned the length of one wall. There were no sniper rifles or rocket launchers, as the enclosed nature of the MILES facility prevented them from being used for their intended purpose; nor were there any grenades aside from the standard fragmentation, as the MILES system was unable to accurately reproduce them. Along the other three walls hung a series of matte black jumpsuits, and beneath those a matching set of MILES equipped armour. All were similar to what a soldier from any regular military would wear, as ATHENA staff had yet to tailor facsimiles of their own uniforms.
In total there were ten people assembled, including Chloe and Tine. Five per side, in an urban environment search-and-destroy exercise.
"Remember," Chloe called out, "When you're hit your weapon's laser shuts off, so firing it isn't gonna do jack shit. Lay down and take a nap, listen to some music." Chloe racked the MP5, chambering a blank. "Two minutes to move to your starting positions, let's go." The two groups would start at opposite ends of the arena, and then work their way towards each other.

The smell of Indian food was still strong in the air as Gareth set aside his magazine. Unlike most of the others, no uniform identified his background.
He held out a hand to Patrick. "I'm Gareth Tang, from Hong Kong. Sorry, Lieutenant de Ruyter is still making her rounds, I think, visiting with some of the injured from a mission we just had."
Acknowledging the sheaf of papers and Patrick's comment about the ambassador, the ex-cop replied, "Governments have a way of complicating things with dead tree skin, don't they? Never fun. Anyway, I can take you over to the common areas of the base, to see if we can find one of the other officers."
He had no way of knowing that Patrick had just come from the direction of the dining hall; but he started to lead the Belgian back there.

Gym
Lieutenant Addilek Surayud
Addilek took in a deep breath of the clean, dry, sterile air of the gym, letting the scrubbed oxygen flow into his lungs as he continued jogging along on the treadmill. Jogging wasn't really the right word for it- most people didn't jog at such a rapid clip- but nonetheless, he continued, idly watching a movie on the little screen in front of him with his earbuds in. It was in English, meaning he couldn't understand some of what they were saying- so far he gathered it was about a stockbroker who had been for unclear reasons arrested, as well as a homeless black man who was somehow connected to the stockbroker and the two old men he'd seen earlier. Fortunately for Addilek, he'd been told by the program's admissions people that his English was probably good enough, when coupled with his excellent French.
The Thai lieutenant sighed, finally giving in and turning on Thai subtitles so he could follow along. Oh, his name is Winthorpe. That makes more sense now.
About thirty minutes later, he switched the treadmill off, hopping down and wiping his face with the small towel he'd put on the machine's handrail. He headed to the changing room and took a fast shower, putting on the standard uniform they'd issued him, and headed towards the cafeteria, ordering himself some food and taking his time while he ate.
Once I'm done here, I should probably go check in with Commander Pier and see if there's anything he really needs me doing.
...
Damn, this food is pretty fucking good.
Now
MILES Training Facility
Addilek checked his guide, mapping out the different routes on the unfamiliar streets in his head as he went.
"Right. So we head down on Knightsbridge, cut through Green Park, head up The Mall past Charing Cross and then turn, khap?"*
The 2,100-odd feet to Hyde Park Corner passed fairly quickly, and soon they were entering the Wellington Arch.
OOC: *I'm typing what Addilek is trying to say. Use this link to get a better idea of how he's pronouncing the English words. Later, I may have him break into French, in which case I'll highlight the text blue.

"Gareth, please. I was a police officer. Tactical medic for our special response unit, SDU. Later on, I did some witness protection for a while. And you?"
The hour was getting late and Gareth supposed they'd have a better chance of finding one of the officers tomorrow. Suggesting it to Patrick, he added, "We can find you a place in the barracks first, if you like. It's not far from here. You don't seem to have a lot of gear, unless you've already dropped it off?"
