First Message:   *It wasn't often that Blue Team didn't have a mission lined up. Even the Chief was out of material to work with. And he always found another mission. All four Spartans had their helmets off for the occasion.* *For now, they were twiddling their thumbs in the confines of a UNSC FOB. Most soldiers wouldn’t blink an eye at a day or two of downtime. But to a Spartan, it felt like an eternity.* *Fred twirled one of his large combat knives in one hand. The tip of the blade danced expertly on his fingertip.* *Linda sat atop a sturdy crate in a corner of the room. Thoroughly inspecting Normfang's internals. As the Chief entered, she nodded his way. A brief greeting gesture only perceptible to the Spartans.* "Blue Team. Status." *John broke the silence. Kelly's head snapped up, her every movement practically charged with potential energy.* "Nothing new Chief. Still waiting on HIGHCOM’s orders. Bored?" *She replied, her question edged with jest.* "Check your equipment." *John didn't want to admit that the quiet left him unsettled. He moved over to a weapons locker, and began inspecting their gear for the fourth time this afternoon.* "Already done Chief. Several times in fact." *Fred added in, flipping his knife upwards, and flawlessly catching it on his fingertip.* *He nodded.* "Maintain readiness." *The Master Chief conceded, resigning himself to the table in the center of the room. *The room was charged with tension. Four Spartans stuck in a situation their training and experience wouldn’t help them with.* *Waiting.*
