Viktor merely grinned inside his helmet and sliced the heads off between the joints in the demon's hide, he wanted to be on the safe side. He would be lying if he said he wasn't at least mildly enjoying this opportunity to be out of the facility where the custodians were trained. Viktor stood at attention when Hunter had told then to line up with his weapons safely put away and his hands respectfully to his sides with his back in perfect posture.

Viktor said nothing through the entire lecture, he remained perfectly in line with the other soldiers and would not speak until directly spoken to or told 'at ease' or 'speak freely'. Viktor knew these words were not for him but Viktor couldn't help but feel slightly responsible for not calling Dean back, or at least making an attempt to stop him from being so careless in not heeding Hunter's directions. But this didn't mean Viktor was going to intentionally stick his neck out for this guy - he didn't know a single one of them beyond what info the higher ups had given him on each of them and even then it wasn't much more than data.

"Sir yes sir!" Viktor replied to Hunter as if the phrase itself was ingrained into him. "You are in charge, no need for you to call upon the higher ups, sir."

After that comment Viktor muted his voice output on his helmet and Viktor began to play his own music in the background, but not enough to overpower the smallest of external noises. Viktor would await further instructions from Hunter in silence.

Jennine stopped firing when Hunter called for them to form up. He definitely sounded mad. She took one last glance at the battleground filled with demon gore to make sure nothing was coming before hurrying to do so. She stood still as Hunter yelled at them for not obeying orders. They were supposed to act as a unit on the field, not just a collection of individuals. It didn't matter that she'd been following orders if the whole group didn't.

"Yes sir!" The last thing she wanted was the higher ups to get involved like this. She had to pass this mission. She stood at attention and held her rifle at her side, awaiting Hunter's next orders.

Dean knew that the source of Hunter's rage was his carelessness. Dean was hesitant to say anything, instead he stood there in a slouch and saluted after Hunter was done "aye captain" he said sheathing his blade "but instead of, ya know, threatening us, why don't we find a safe place to gather ourselves before the next wave?"

Hunter pulled out his pistol, aimed it with one hand somewhere to the side, and executed a dying demon. "Relax tinkerbell, the bulk of their forces are in the cave. We're waiting for a special something before we head down." A blip appeared on everyone's HUD. It was similar to how other custodians appeared, but this one was moving very fast.

"Here it comes," Hunter added with a smile. Moments later a crate crashes into a nearby tree, taking it out and then coming to a stop against a few stronger trees. "Restock your ammo, then we head down." He motioned toward the supply crate.

Viktor stepped forward first and took a blade sharpener for his knife and sword as well as a four extra magazines for his high caliber sniper rifle. After magnetically attaching them to his hips and thighs Viktor strode off to a ledge that he could lean against to hand sharpen his blades while the other took their pick of goodies. All this was done without speaking a word. Viktor wasn't one to speak if he didn't need to, so he kept to himself unless someone approached him - often times that made him seem distant and kind of a jerk.

Viktor looked on into the distance where the intel he had been given told where the demon cave was, Viktor detached the scope from his rifle and tried use it to get a better look from this distance over and across the dense forest before them.
