Anything supernatural was well beyond Washington's comprehension. Even if someone were to explain it to him, he would have so many doubts. If there were any such thing as ghosts, then there would have been plenty of ghosts that would be following him right now. He had left hundreds of soldiers that died in battle, well maybe not that amount but he had been part of squads that usually got decimated by the enemy pretty quickly. Something that he would never want the repeat to happen of course. Washington had been through a lot with the aspect of the army and had seen some terrible things. The aliens that they were going against wanted them dead, and that meant they had a right to defend themselves from the likes of extinction. Seeing the technology that the aliens used. Instead of bullets, they used energy that could easily bore a hole through someone's chest. A feeling that Washington had felt before when an ember of said energy landed on his arm and almost had gone through the entirety of it all. It had been one of the most painful things that he had ever experienced. He didn't think that he would have been able to continue to fight, but the energy had at least cauterized the wound so he didn't have to really worry about bleeding out. But because he had waited so long to get his arm treated, it wasn't healed to its full strength as there was some damage.
Luckily it didn't seem to affect any part of his mobility, which had been his only concern. The other army that they were going against had similar weapons that they did, but in his mind, they were more dangerous. They had strange rocket launchers and weapons that could affect an entire radius. Get shot by too much from this one weapon and it would cause a change reaction that would make the ammunition blow up once it was attached to you. They had grenades that could attach themselves to soldiers and they would be left to watch as a Marine exploded. There had been instances where a grenade was indeed thrown and it attached itself to a Marine's helmet, where they were able to take it off before it did explode. There had been no instances of a Marine being capable of taking off that grenade if it touched any form of flesh. It was horrible yes, but that was war and there was no changing war either. They had tanks, sniper rifles, shields, and they also seemed to have an unlimited amount of units that their disposal. On their side, they were only one species, that species being human, while on the other side it was around four different species in one army. Which meant that they could expend quite a few different species if they needed to. It wasn't fair to those that were left to die but it was strategic whether they liked it or not. Either way, he could believe something as strange as aliens and new technology.
But while he was younger there, of course, had been stories about mythology. Books that told about the dinosaurs and the ancient past of what humans used to be before they started to evolve into what they were now. But something such as supernatural was quick to go over his head. Everything about it didn't even remotely seem to be logical to Washington He was a soldier, and when it came to something simple as possession, maybe he could believe it, but only if it was a computer program, aka an AI. There was no such thing as ghosts. There was no such thing as demons. They just didn't exist, and unless he was given an example he would basically refuse to listen. Agent Washington was already starting to struggle with the idea of the animals that were capable of existing on this Earth. Because he had figured out that they were indeed on Earth now. Probably making the situation worse. The Freelancer was struggling with being an animal, what he was capable of eating. The armored smilodon had just got done figuring out where he was going to get something to eat. Having gone to Imperia and asking if she had any food that she would be willing to give him for the time being until he could make some of his own.
The smilodon was glad that he was able to grab some jerky, and stuck it in between the gab of his armor in his chest plate so that he didn't have to carry it. Not like he could carry anything in his mouth thanks to helmet. Considering how new Washington was to this place he didn't know about the female's situation. He didn't even know the name that had belonged to her, just that her overall demeanor was something that was pretty questionable. Either way, he had been walking around when he noticed two animals were starting to gather around a number. Was he missing a meeting or something? He had gone to each meeting individually to make sure that he didn't miss what was happening in this outpost. The Freelancer made his way over, his armor lights on like usual with each step that he took. And as usual, he remained a decent distance away from everyone else. He liked his personal space after all. Luckily his helmet hid the confused look that he had on his face. "Uhhh are we gathering around for a specific reason?" Agent Washington would question no one in particular. His gold gaze looking at the three animals that he didn't know. Should he introduce himself? Well, it was definitely too late for that now. The small tail he had flicked back and forth as the anxiety began to build. Something that he wasn't used to having happened, but with recent events it was easier to put him into more of a panic or make him nervous."speech"
