" Can't see the usual tactics working," shep shrugged, " I doubt we could get her drunk. Got any ideas?"

"Hmmm yeah I don't think getting her drunk would work she would likely see right through it. Especially with us doing the trying." *finishes eating thoughtfully trying to think of an idea* "Only thing I got is we confront her straight up, but that would likely just make her mad at us both."

Sam heads to her room and paces back and forth, trying to get rid of the nervous energy she is feeling. Part of her wanted to run off the base and go and search for Tim herself, but the rest of her knew it was a foolish idea that would only get her killed. Plus, she knew that Thomas was an excellent officer who would do everything he could to find her brother and his troops and bring them home safely.
She sits down at her desk and tries to get some paperwork done, but finds that she can't concentrate. After awhile, she gives up and gets changed into a t-shirt and a pair of jogging pants and sneakers and heads to the gym. After doing some warm-up stretches, she starts to jog around the track, trying to get rid of all the excess energy she is feeling so she can calm down and focus on what she has to do for their next mission.

" Oh, she's gonna be mad at us." Shep grinned, and explained what he had done.
***
After Sam finished her run, and went to the locker room, she found her locker was open slightly. when she opened it, a large spider leapt out at her, the rubber children's toy hitting her in the chest before falling to hang from the string it was ahdered to the inside of the door with. A corporal afew lockers down tried to hide a chuckle, but couldn't.
***
so shep explained his prank," At least if she's mad at us, she's not thinking about Tim

Rhys busted up laughing after Shep explained what he had done. "Very true Shep, Either way it accomplishes the objective. I just wish we could see her face when it happens." Still laughing.

" No kidding, but I'd hide if I was you." Shep chuckled as well," because she is going to blame you. LT wouldn't blame me for something like that. Or at least the old me wouldn't have." even he admitted that something about him had changed since their last mission, but he made no attempts to explain what it was.

Rhys gets an 'oh shit' look on his face. "Yeah your right," Stands up and heads off. "I will see you later Shep." Getting up and running off towards to the shooting range, hopefully not running into the LT.

Sam bites back a startled yelp and smirks at the fallen spider. "Very funny!" she calls out with the same smirk. "Just remember what they say about payback!" Shaking her head, she disassembles the spider prank and puts the whole thing in her locker. She then quickly heads to the shower room to get cleaned up and changes into clean clothes before heading back to her room to see if she had gotten any updates on Tim or his troops.

The range is fairly empty when Rhy gets there. Sam gets the same answer as before," sorry luietenant, nothing's changed. Lt. norrin's last report just came in.
" realx Sam," General Sykes said , placing a hand on her shoulder. He'd been around since the dissappearance, and had assumed command. " Tom will find out what happened. Get some rest. We soon need your squad to move out, and you with your head on straight."

Rhys checks out a CP-50 from the Armory and goes back to the Range to keep his skills sharp.

Sam smiles weakly at the General. "I am calm, sir, and I'll be ready for when my squad needs to move out. When can I expect a briefing to go over the details of our next assigment?"

After a few minutes, a solder in grey old style armor approached. He looked at Rhy, " Up for a little fun? Can't find a challenge amongst the rest of you army types around here."
" Not yet, Luietenant. I'll have them for you soon enough." gen. Sykes replied," but you will be moving to operate out of one of our FOP's"

Rhys Chuckled "Sure always up for a challenge." Hefting his CP-50, "So what's the bet?"

" Standard SWAT scenario. Six targets on the move by rifle, followed by the tightest grouping of five shots by pistol. Say 20 credits?" The guy replied with a smirk, turning around a ballcap that had NTSET stamped on it.
A few others were starting to take notice of the friendly competition.

Rhys nods, "Sounds like fun. 20 creds it is." Moving into position and checking his CP-50 and the CP-30 he has holstered in the shoulder holster. He gives a thumbs up to the other guy when he's ready then waits for the signal to start*
