As they picked up speed and altitude, several other dropships, transports, and attack ships could be seen lifting off and heading in a different direction. Kirst drummed his fingers on his knee as he watched the other craft taking off. "While the CO's here are assholes, I cant really be angry at the grunts. Force recon prides themselves on reliability, adaptability, and sheer stubbornness. First in, last out is one of their mottos." Erik nodded as he checked his assault rifle. "That's how it has always been since the beginning of time. Regular troops and spec ops rarely get along due to their different fighting styles."
Fortunate Son sounded its final notes and after a few moments of silence a new song started. Dante and Xanders immediately perked up and smiled. "Yooo! Yall remember this song?" Dante keyed the intercom to talk to Willis. "Yo Fubar! Turn this shit up its our jam!" Willis laughed and suddenly the music increased in volume. "Right on my dudes!" Kirst looked over at Natalya apologetically, causing the captain to sigh and wave dismissively allowing the squad to sing along.
Song:
Fueled by Adrenaline, by Kazzer
Dante:
"Late night make a run with the devil
High beams blast the track at full steam
Fork in the road but I'm on the get go
So hold on tight tear up the concrete
One eye open lookin out for cops
The other ones hopin just to keep 'er straight
My right hands reaching for the right to shift
My left hands always pullin to the passin lane
Hit it,"
Chorus:
"I'm lookin outside my life keeps flashin by
I move around but I'm always against the wind
Enjoy the ride and just hang on"
"Drive it all night
Launch it straight from hell
And hang it on the edge
Fueled by adrenaline
Lady luck don't fail me I'm at it again
Fueled by adrenaline"
Xanders:
"Right... Heavy on the gas till I'm satisfied
I live for the moment when it's do die
So I set the pace cause I'm second to none
Take a quick pitstop then I'm back on the run
I'm pushin really hard I'm in the triple digits
Can't break down ignore the speed limit
Cause I'm outta my mind when I'm pressed for time
Let the demons inside hit the overdrive
Get it..."
Chorus:
"I'm lookin outside my life keeps flashin by
I move around but I'm always against the wind
Enjoy the ride and just hang on"
"Drive it all night
Launch it straight from hell
And hang it on the edge
Fueled by adrenaline
Lady luck don't fail me I'm at it again
Fueled by adrenaline"
Erik:
"For a long while nearly lost my ride
Just a long shot lady luck on my side
Under the eight ball finally realized
Been sold out hop in the low ride
I can't turn back and I'll see you in hell"
Chorus:
"Drive it all night
Launch it straight from hell
And hang it on the edge
Fueled by adrenaline
Lady luck don't fail me I'm at it again
Fueled by adrenaline"
While the three men may have been a little off key, they knew the lyrics by heart and all sang together for the chorus. Kirst simply smiled amusedly as he watched their antics while Turk waved a finger to the beat. Natalya simply ignored the singing by going over mission notes. Unnoticed to the men though, Natalya subtly tapped her foot to the beat.
