The red-haired girl glanced over the kneeling Gamma soldiers and civilians before resting her eyes briefly on Nagisa, she gave a twitch of the eye before vanishing from sight. They had been ordered to line up, facing the mustard yellow soldiers and their leader had been taken into some back building out of site. Boredom increased in parallel to time.

Finally the red-haired girl appeared and announced that they would (quote, unquote) leave this place alone. As the city fell back into it's monotonous, dull, grey life, the Epsilon leader called a strategy meeting.

As it turned out, nothing would happen. If they could take out at least three of Beta's main targets. Within a month. If they couldn't do this then it was agreed that Gamma would become a province of Epsilon. With that they set to work. The number of females outnumbered the number of males roughly 3:1 in that games room. All in all, there were 17 including Nagisa. From their headsets, they could talk easily, and Nagisa had to jot down their names. According to 'Gold' their team leader, everyone was assigned a nickname when the first arrived. These nicknames were unique to them and their classes would be vital in destroying the Beta targets.

Their names were as follows:

Gold [Team Leader]

Toaster [2iC]

Puncake [Assault]

BJ [Assault]

Hal [Assault]

Macky [Assault]

Blossom [Assault]

Pyle [Assault]

Moola [Close quarters]

V(ee) [Close Quarters]

Shusui [Close Quarters]

MLG [Sniper] (He hated this nickname apparently)

Jujubee [Sniper]

Balboa [Explosives]

Kettle [Radio]

Candle [Medic]

Memorising those names on top of school work was going to be extremely difficult. The games translation system was astronomically good. Being able to translate from figures and symbols, into European language and vice versa. This really was revolutionary tech. But as the team stood around the map in contemplation, Nagisa was gaping at the detail and realism of it. He could see the amount of land controlled by one faction. The green's city was an averagely sized town, even controlling that along with the outside area, it was barely more than a speck of the map. Dominated by blue and yellow. Red and brown were also fairly averagely-sized, but nowhere near on the scale of blue. Whom, despite competition from yellow, clearly commanded the biggest threat.

"Gender!" Cried Puncake. "Gender! We all know these faces are our faces right? With slight modifications. This girl is a guy IRL, just like me. But if you look at his facial change status which the game employs, there is a 2% change! I could easily mistake him for a girl on the street! Heck he even has a unisex name!"

"All in favour of rookie's nickname being 'Gender' say aye!" There was a general murmur of agreement before Toaster shouted: "Gender! Welcome to Gamma!" and with that settled, Nagisa settled into the new atmosphere before logging out and, still feeling the same as before, just like when he first played, hit the bed, and fell to sleep.
