Soviet drones edition.

Monthly Report comes in, J takes a look at always. She takes a longer look at it and for a moment something small seems to click, or rather snap within her.
>>What's the matter J? Lost the bet?
>No, my dearest V, I beat you, though the margin I did it by wasn't as large as I expected. Something else caught my eye-
>>Ah damn it. Very well, when you decide to claim your "reward" you know where to find me.
V leaves. After studying the report for a few moments more J turns to N.
>Hey N, do you fin anything strange about these reports?
>>Oh sorry J I-I'll do better next time I promise!
>Uhhh, yeah sure whatever, you almost weren't useless this time. Anyways, I know you are a Moron but can you take a gander at this report? Find anything interesting about the number one place?
>>Oh well they must be working especially hard if they made it to number one ahah... Hey, maybe if I tried harder then we could maybe, beat them? Is that what you want?
>Not exactly. You see how long they have been out in the field?
>>Oh yeah that must mean that they sure have their work cut out for them. Maybe they just have more... material to work with?
>Yeah... no that's not how it works, quotas are calculated by a percentage- Oh why do I even bother. Look at every other Squads average life- Service Expectancy. They are a anomaly.
>>Why is that? When they finish one job they just get sent to another one by the Company.
>Ummm
>>Right J?
>Yeah of course, what I was trying to say is that you need to step it up if we want to beat them. While V and I are more then capable of filling out the quota, yo are falling behind on your personal one and I don't want to keep covering for your lazy useless ass! Got it?!
>>Y-yeah J, sorry J.
>Well better get started on the next one immediately, you are dismissed!
N confusedly flies of, while J seeks out V

>Hey V
>>Came to settle our bet already?
>No, not now, l8er. I wanted you to take a look at something. Take a look at the report.
>>Oh wow! Did you really did beat me by one Kill? Unreal...
>No, Not the Team Performance Matrix. Look at the Top Performers Board!
>>Ok and? We beat the quota... by a lot
>Don't you see something strange? Look at the first place.
>>What about it?
>Are you blind or something? Need your glasses? Or are you just as dumb as N? Do you know how long they have been up there?
>>No J, because, first, you don't share that info with us, and second, because I don't give a fuck.
>They were top performers for the last couple of years, way before we came here. And look at their number od Kil-, ahm, Disassemblies, is "[????]".
>You know where they are stationed?
>>I. Don't. Fucking. careee, J. Why don't you talk about this with N? He loves doing anything, he would make a perfect audience.
>Because, V, I don't think he realizes what happens when we finish the job. You know. I can't get him asking questions. I need to know how they managed to do this. Please hear me out.

>>Sure... Where are they stationed?
> "38-Volfram", but that's not a company approved name. It's actual designation is 'Tungsten-11'. That Moon, they are stationed on, is warm compared to Copper-9. This freezing climate is in our favor, these guys don't have that. How much killing is there to be done there? For all these years!
>>Well I just guess they killed so much they broke the counter or something
>No! That means that they aren't even keeping count! This doesn't add up at all, must be an error, right?
>>I kind of recall that the Scoreboard placement is determined by a mix of time in servise and number of kills. So maybe they aren't even doing any killing and they are just living off their time in service? Enjoying all the privileges of being at the top of the score board...
>Yeah but how? How are they taking care of their temperatures? There must be something about it. Something about them? I- We, need to find out
