Dressed in regular marine recruit attire, a t-shirt with two blue stripes on the sleeves, bearing the marine crest on it's back, Crash covered this with his brown hoodie, his hood down as he dragged his feet towards the Gallows. His shoes not shone, his dreadlocks messy after weeks of sleeping on his head without a do-rag and his eyes still carrying fragments of cole in the corner Caruncle. Walking along the corridor towards the Field Training Area to the front of the base,
"I should totally skip this snooze fest." Crash announced. It'd perfect range of the incoming Ensign's ears to pick up. Turning his eyeballs to the right, they'd pop out as he'd notice the woman's standard issue jacket, with stripped epaulets. Being new to the base, he didn't know much of his officials aside from the dickheads from the orientation and he'd been gaining enemies fast due his nonchalant attitude. Forcing a fake smile, he'd turn to the woman balancing a cigarette in her mouth. Now, as planned, he'd just simply go,
'Hey.' or
'Yo.', however, the words that escaped Crash's mouth were,
"You know... Those fags will kill you if you keep puffing on them. They've already destroyed your bottom lip. You should fix that." Crash rattled off.
"FUCK." Crash thought to himself loudly, now frozen in his attempt to give sound medical advice.
"Oi. Crash!" Theo shouted pissed from the other end of the hallway.
"Well. Fuck. Me." Crash exclaimed crudely. Grabbing Crash by his ear, the Ensign gave salutations to the Ensign,
"Excuse him Freyr. He doesn't know his place. This brat is Vice Admiral Icario's kid. He's mouthy, lazy and a second rate shot." Theo said, bashing the young recruit.
"Hey. Ensign Sir." Crash said politely, as his ear hung in the commanding officer's pinch.
"You know... If you really weren't so uptight... You'd get much more women. It's okay to be a Forty-Year Old Virgin-" Crash exclaimed, his sentence ended abruptly by a swift shot to the half-pints mid-section. Blushing embarrassed, Theo would adjust his spectacles, nodding respectfully to Freyr and dragging the man out towards the Gallows. Within moments, most of the personnel on the base were gathered by the Gallows, those who weren't present were either on a mission or stuck in more important meetings on site. Standing in front of the recruits, Ensign Gideon stood on the platform with all of the recruits in front of him. Among him were all the high ranking Officials on base at the time, meaning the announcement would be something of immense interest. Standing below the platform, his ears sore from the Ensign's grip, the dreadlocked marine would murmur sweet swear words to himself.
"Alright. HQ has been concerned with the quality of marines we've been recruiting as of late. Most of you have only been here for a few weeks or so. Some are adjusting to life as is pretty well, others have been stuck on the base for the most part. Today, we'll be doing field training exercises. Five of you's recruits will take on one Ensign in Five to One Combat. The Ensigns can dictate how the challenge goes. Any training ground is at your disposal. I'll announce the pairings. With Ensign Freyr, Corner, Johnson, Luwi, Rogers, Dotroleno." Gideon began to announce.
"With Ensign Theo, Carter, Manning-" Gideon's speech was interrupted by a loud bark from below the platform.
"OI. OLD MAN." Crash shouted.
"I told you not to call me by my fucking Sirname Name. My name's Crash. Not Dotroleno, not Hirohito. Crash." Crash shouted passionately. Scoffing,
"Silence Kosho(Failure)." Gideon retorted grinning. Tensions rose on the platform, as Gideon and Crash's spirits and ego's collided.
