Ember

There were some nights when Ember never got much sleep... Last night was one of them...Ember slowly opened his eyes, He was laying on his luxurious looking bed. The Darkwolf slowly stepped up, yawning lightly. Ember was a Darkwolf, A large humanoid Lupine, He was strong, the wolf had blue lines running all over his Dark fur like a second set of Veins,Topped off with a bit of orange and red hair. 

Ember went to his closet, walking over and taking out his DSF Uniform, it was folded into neat bundles, as always... The wolf went into the bathroom, taking off his shorts and setting his clothes near the bar,Sighing "Another day... Another shower..." The wolf said as he hopped in the shower and closed the door. Ember turned on the water, setting it to warm.Ember quickly finished up, hopping out and drying off his fur, As soon as the wolf was dry, he went to put on his uniform, comb his hair, Brush his fangs, And complete his daily routine.

The wolf went to equip his armour, walking to the tactical command center, and into the briefing room. An older darkwolf walked up Ember and led him to a nearby briefing room with a few other wolves. "Good morning gentlemen..." said the highest rank. "Yesterday we sent you a Datafile containing mission details... but just to be sure, we will go over them again..." Ember remembered reading the Datafile about Site-20... If it was really as bad as they said it was...

A couple of boring details about the shuttle was mostly what they talked about, but Ember still listened carefully. "Now... R&D has developed a special HUD for this mission... CODENAMED:Orion... it is designed to use augmented reality tricks to reduce long and short term effects of seeing traumatizing images..." Ember couldn't help but feel slightly intimidated, if they really needed these... Then it must have been horrible... "Your mission is to retrieve the asset mentioned in the document... Good luck men... you'll need it..." The darkwolf eventually left the room as Ember grabbed one of the visors and looked toward his unit.... "Well... You ready to go?"
