"Fine. I'll be there ASAP, but we're gonna be on foot, so it could take some time. Over and out." Jack immediately walked back over to the others and decided now was the time to play nice.<br/><br/>"I feel you deserve an explanation." Jack said as he walked over to them. "Trust me, I don't owe you one, that's the joy of me being the C.O., but I think we need to get a few things clear." Jack stopped when he was a few feet away from them. "I am not angry at any of you. The reason I have been hostile is because I am frustrated at the lack of intel given by command before the mission and, to be perfectly honest, I am a bit afraid. I am not afraid of these things, I am not afraid of dying, I am afraid of losing more men. My job is to complete the mission, but it is also to make sure all of you come home. I am afraid I may not be able to do that job, that's why I am acting this way."<br/><br/>Jack looked down, sighed, then looked up and said, "This is how it is. I'll quit yelling and berating you. You all follow my orders to the letter. If you have a problem with one of my orders, you can talk to me about it when we are out of combat. This is not open for debate, if any of you don't want to do it this way then you can leave the fireteam. Stay here, leave, it doesn't matter, just go die in a way you see fit for yourself. If you survive you will be penalized under court-martial."<br/><br/>Jack thought for a second, then continued, "Our contact is still waiting for us. We have no other instructions beyond what he gives us. Right now our orders are to meet him in front of the project building. We are going to continue making our way there, hopefully we'll get reinforced and have more intel on what the fuck is going on. Who's coming with me and who's staying behind?"
