Welcome to Gaia! ::

Welcome to boot camp, Grix style. The camp takes place on Earth, in a dusty patch of ground that has been set aside for specilized training.

You will start your training by posting you arriving at the camp via bus, getting out and standing at attention for the drill instructors. Your character will make these posts and even if you are a higher rank than the instructor, here, their word is law.

It is very hot and dry, there is a central, two floor concrete office building for the officers and trainers. On either side of the camp are rows of large blocklike builings for holding the trainies. The drill instructors here are brutal, expect no simpathy, no remorse, regardless of rank. Until you have passed this, you are all Privates. Now get out there and prove that you arn't usless packs of meat.

Dean took a step off the bus and took a step next to Nick. Dean saw Grix and snapped into a salute as well.

(Assassin and Criminal, you are not to post here until you post in the "Post here to begin training" thread.)

Recruit Patrick Ryan
Test Camp, Alpha
I am screwed

Patrick, startled by the instructor's extremely loud voice, stood up as straight as he possibly could. His eyes were wide with terror as the instructor glared at him.

"Patrick Ryan, Sir! New Manila,Mars,Sir!" he exclaimed.

The dry breeze that began to blow deposited dust in Patrick's eyes. His eyes began to water, but he was too scared of Grix to rub them. The drill instructor seemed satisfied for the moment, so Patrick tried to take deep breaths to quiet his racing heart.


This guy scares the crap out of me, thought Patrick, I better straighten up fast, or risk being berated more. Durt told me not to worry about boot camp, that it wasn't that bad. He's full of s**t.

Recruit Patrick Ryan
Test Camp, Alpha
Running? No problem

As soon as Grix ordered them to begin their run, Patrick was in the front of the pack. As they ran, he realized he wouldn't know when they had reached two miles. The path they were taking was hardly a path at all. Worse, the area was covered in cacti and the ground was pock-marked with snake holes.

Whatever, he thought, I'll just let these guys figure it out.

A man, Mike, Patrick thought his name was; was running alongside Patrick. Mike was smaller in build then the other recruits, but was apparently faster than them because of it.

"My name's Patrick."

"I know. Mike."

"You're pretty fast. I did track in high school, so that's why I am."

"Watch this!", shouted Mike as he sped up, jumped over a thorny bush, and landed on his feet.

"Nice mate." said Patrick in response to his comrade's feat.

The heat of the day began to wear on the recruits. They were all sweaty and low on breath when Mike finally told them to turn around. They ran as quickly as they could back towards camp. When they finally arrived, Patrick, Mike, and a few others were fine. Others were wheezing, and had to sit down, being that worn out.

Introduction

Nick sat in the bus thinking as he heard the bus skid to a stop. "Here we are" he got up grabbing his bag flinging it over his shoulder.

He walked off the bus into the blistering heat Just great He walked forward seeing a man at attention dropping his bag standing in line quickly saluting his form firm as he looked forward

If I was still a DI, I would have cut off your eyelids, fed them to you, casturated you with a rusty spoon then had your body eaten by ants for having such a horrid post. Luckily, you will just get off with public humiliation. Put more then two ******** seconds into your posts! Your either 3 or you care nothing about RPing.


If any of you want to know why I stopped teaching people, look at Tylerbaustin's post. Nuff said.

its 3 in the morning. undead is grabbed out of his bed... he is thrown out of the barracks and on to the ground by a commanding officer. he is screamed at for not putting 2 seconds in to his post. and then is told to go run.
