The Crash
Max is sitting with Original Cindy and Kendra. She is staring fixedly at
a girl who has just walked in.
OC: "You know that fine looking honey, Homegirl ?"
Max: (strained whisper) "No. She just reminds me of someone I used to
know."
Flashback to Manticore Base
Young Max and Zack are leading the rest of the X-5's through the dense
forest surrounding them. Zack gives the order to pair off into threes.
Zack, Jondy, and Max are paired together. The objective of this exercise
is to see which threesome can reach an intended target within the
allotted amount of time.
Young Zack motions for Max and Jondy to fall in behind him and they do so
silently. The three X-5's move swiftly and silently through the forest,
stooping only for the occasional hand-signal from Zack. They reach the
target well within the allotted time. Lydecker is waiting for them.
Lydecker: "Well done. The three of you are the best of the best."
Zack, Max, and Jondy remain standing, expressionless.
Lydecker: "Return to the barracks it will be a while before the others
join you. Use this time to practice your hand to hand combat skills."
Zack, Max, and Jondy: "Sir, yes sir!"
While they are walking back to the base, Zack suddenly stops and turns to
his two teammates.
Zack (softly): "He's right. We are the best. I'm going to ask if one of
you can be my S.I.C."
Max and Jondy exchange puzzled glances.
Max: "What about Eva? "
Zack: "Eva is not as good either of you."
Max and Jondy exchange pleased half-smiles.
Zack: "Come on. We have to get back."
Max and Jondy follow him mutely.
End Flashback
OC: "You ok, boo?"
Max: (choked voice) "I gotta blaze."
