Shizen had already started her small shopping spree in the town, the list on her visor giving her the ideas that she would need. "Would you like a zepplin delivery miss Shizen?" the vendor asks when she's done searching through the metallics. "I'd appreciate that. Have you seen James lately? I heard that his platoon was meant to have come through here in the past month or so," She asks, getting a shake of the head as a reply. "Well, at least it's better news than being called dead," she says to herself before the insignia flashes on her visor, since it's partially keeping up with the rest of the debriefment. "Freeze image."<br/><br/>"Here you go. Once the items are loaded up we'll be launching above the storm and dropping the pods according to the GPS. So you know, there's a group who've been asking about you and your unit Shi, and they seem to be that new breed of 'hunters' out there who seem to be taking on some higher ups. Watch yourself chick," the vendor says, leaning forward to a whisper to keep the volume low. "I know that we're not going to let some punks stop us, though thanks for the word," Shizen smiles and drops a small tip to the vendor, aka her in-town informant who has been supplying her the medications that she needs through one of his medical friends.<br/><br/>With a tap to her visor as she steps onto the street, Shizen notices that a majority of the people have already headed inside for the evening, but she needs to get back before the storm is over or she could easily be tracked to the base. "Aren, Mhegan was feild hunting today, not me. Thanks for picking that up Jal, and you're in luck. The vendor has some Z399L1N5's in and felt like sparing some for us to use for delivery, so you get to see your first pod drop tonight. Materials purchased and sending, though I found some interesting information on that insignia. They're the less code-named hunters out there, mostly whispers about higher ups in units being targets for them but from the sound of it they just seem like scare tactics to me," Shizen rattles off before checking her visor's map, heading to the bakery and grabbing a few small bags of the sweet baked goods she was asked to get. "Thank you," she politely says to the woman behind the glass counter.<br/><br/>While walking back to the edge of town, one of the open garage vendors lights were still on for a torch job, causing the curious scout to walk over and peek inside, spotting the slightly above human sized mech that dwarfs even her own. "Wow..." she whispers, catching the ear of the mechanic who calls her over and starts up a conversation about the mech, asking if there is a possibility for cybernetics. Less than five minutes later Shizen is skimming out from the garage with her newly purchased skeleton body mech, gleefully grinning as she slides back and forth in the snow before topping the crest of the hill, getting a warning shot under her legs before she stops and puts her hands up. "Hound, guess what I got for you on your birthday!" she calls out before piggy backing on her auto-pilot mech.<strong>"I get to have my body back with all of this equipment?"</strong>the AI asks outloud while skimming back to the base, glints in the stars showing the zepplins on their way to base. "No silly, you're getting a smaller body that you can pilot on your own. Hell, I'll even equip you with a sniper rifle and a belt of rounds for it if you want it."<strong>"But sniper rifles don't get belts... they're magazines."</strong>"Well who says that a pair of mechanics and an AI can't change that?"<br/><br/>Listening in on the conversation, Shizen grins when Jal is being breifed on MAC, knowing that Jal might get a kick out of the auto defenses she installed into it. "You know me, if there isn't a human in it there has to be some sort of auto-defense to it," she chimes in before spotting the base out of the snow storm, hearing a few shells crash out of reach of the wall, then watching as Hound pulls on the tows and drags them to the hangar, knowing that the pieces they asked for wouldn't be fully assembled so they could be lighter and easier to transport in the zepplins. "Aren, tomarrow we're getting a shipment of four small auto-loader canopies which would be best suited for the curves and turns for the canyon than regular ballistics. Also, I do support the idea of keeping the canyon from erupting due to mines in the choke points. Shizen back to base, equipment in tow."
