Taking Flight
It had been a long flight. It took a while, but eventually he had managed to convince his adoptive parents that this was the right decision. He'd read all of the government's materials on the way over, getting a pretty good idea what was in store for the new Flight team. Expendable he could handle - what was the use of invulnerability otherwise? Not sure he liked that atmosphere for his teammates, but then no one was forced to join either, right?

Having connections to the Alpha and Gamma programs both, and parents the government wanted to remain on good terms with had its benefits. He was the first to arrive, even before their handler. He had his security card from the information packet, so getting in to the low security areas was no problem. He picked out a room and tossed his bags in, then grabbed a towel and headed for the shower to wake up and clean up after the all too crowded flight.
