"Right then."

Standing, Halvard pressed some buttons on the screen. The footage of the test switched off, and a symbol appeared on screen.

"This year has seen the most graduates of the Ace exam to date. Therefore, the top brass has seen it fit to put a team together. Henceforth, you will be known as Team Sigma."

Halvard began to pace back and forth in front of the monitor.

"Now, it is rather confusing as to why the military has elected to put us together. The reason is this..."

Tapping another button, the screen showed several large towers reaching up to the sky.

"These are called Mass Drivers. They are part of a top secret government project to create..."

The screen switched to a panoramic shot of the earth from space.

"An orbital colony. Our job is to defend it. The government has been keeping it's ear to the ground, and several dissident groups arent fans of this plan. If anything happens, we need to be there."

Walking to the door of the office, Halvard motioned for them to follow.

"You all mentioned your MSs, but never told me anything more about them. We've got some spare time to kill before our first assignment, so I'm heading down to the hangar to do some maintinence on mine. I'd also kind of like to see the units i'll be working with."
