Juliette rolled Felix into place as well, moving the gear's legs back and
forth briskly to test out the SMS. Satisfied with her own final systems check,
he gunned the engine a few times to smooth out its idle. Felix was a machine
that looked like it meant business. Not sleek and sexy like Keavy's heavily
modified Cheetah, her gear was a tried-and-true military design that was
designed with one thing in mind -- combat. Checking on the new additions to
her gear -- the urban-friendly lights and reflectors, for one thing, Juliette
radioed that she was ready. "All set, team."
