"Umm...just make sure he doesn't shut the door on us, or hits us from behind or something," Virgil replied to Avon as he took his carbine off safety. He noticed that Kholas had gone somewhere ahead, and Guile, Spade, and Dugan were following him, and--
Waitaminute--FOLLOWING ME?? How in the hell did THIS happen?! He looked back at the three behind him, all older and more experienced than himself. Shouldn't I be following one of them? What the hell am I doing?...
Still, he'd dragged everyone there in the first place. He couldn't well back out of it now. He took a deep breath, released it slowly.
"All right," he whispered to the others as he recalled his Basic Training. "After that blast, he has to know we're here, so be ready for anything. I'll take point." It wasn't so much bravery--Virgil just figured as the person who'd dragged them here, it was only fair that he be the first to get it if he led everyone into a trap....
What else...oh yeah... "Try and space out a little while we're moving--close enough to cover, far enough that is someone hits a trap it won't nail the whole group. The people we're looking for were on the loose last I heard of them, so be careful what you shoot at. All right...let's roll."
Then he started quietly down the hall and into the stronghold, watching for any signs of movement.
