"No, no. We have effectively a month, maybe three weeks until the entirety of the thirteenth is expected over there," Nick said, wiping his face before looking into her eyes. "Besides, this is important." Nick swiveled the chair slightly, to allow him access to the desk without having to make Ava move, he tapped on the keyboard a couple of time and brought up a pair of projections for Ava to look at. "Originally, I was just going to have you follow the same path I took, ending with you learning field survival, infiltration, and sniper training. But, after a while, I figured the horizons could be broadened and added and removed from the list. After all your training, I figured you'd be best for either my original idea." Nick gestured to the information projected to their left. "Or for something similar to what Serpent division members are put through, albeit of a higher level." Nick proceeded to gesture to the screen on the right. "So, do you have any preference?"<br/><br/>The projection on the left had a picture of an open field attached to it, describing a two week training regiment that would allow for Ava to learn proper distance calculations, survival tactics, and sniper infiltration, which included picking optimal spots and how to control and regulate one's body to ensure minimal movements for extreme amounts of time. The whole goal was to shape a person into someone with the potential for sniping with a crash course, as most calls would come from experience instead of the basics being covered.<br/><br/>The projection on the right held no picture, and described the minute details of scouting, sabotage and guerrilla tactics, up to and including trap work. It's focus was much more direct and systematic, having to do with proper distances to keep from where you are scouting, the exact mixtures and wiring needed for explosives, common weak points in structures, and how to set up optimal killing floors for ambushes. The whole goal was to force the information into a person so that instinct would have an easier time kicking in when in the field.<br/><br/>"Whichever you choose, if you choose either of them, you'll probably have to head out in a week or two, so it'd be cutting it close to when the whole battalion ships out," Nick said. "But I am leaving the choice to you. I have friends that are no longer in a Hunter company that are ready and able to teach you, all they need is a call in advance so that they can prepare."
