It was the day for Sergeant-Lieutenant meetups. Sgt. Pringleton looked enviously at his older brother. The 24 other sergeants looked indifferently at their superior, but the brother locked eyes in an icy stare. Finally, the inferior spoke about Sol. A promising, brilliant foot soldier with more tricks up his sleeve than the others. Sgt. Pringleton groaned and mumbled in the incoherent language of the zombies about the nearly successful invasion of Crazy Dave's house and how he learned quickly. Lt. Pringleton Consequently watched Sol in the next battle through a tower viewer and saw the skills conveyed by his actions. One thing that caught Lt. Pringleton off guard was that Sol reacted to an invisible chomper, using all of his skills in combination to fight off his enemy. A victory of team vanquish was won, and 10 scoring kills were accredited to Sol.

News of this traveled up to Major Major, who demanded a promotion for Sol. Lt. Pringleton accepted the order and made Sol his older brother's equal, but that wasn't even enough. Captain Zombones promoted Sol, much to the chagrin of the Lieutenant. Finally Major Major scrutinized himself for promoting him once and promoted Sol up to captain, much to the Captain's consternation.

Sol fought furiously, and the extra Zombucks simply added more sustenance to his diet. At his next health check-up, his hit-points added to a whopping 135, an extra 10 health above what all the other foot-soldiers could withstand. Surprisingly, 3 other zombies were grouped up with him. Alan the engineer, Wilbur the scientist and David the All-Star. All were fully capable of using their abilities in tandem, and had an above-average health.

In only a few day's time, the capture of Suburbia enabled Zomboss to rename it as his own, Zomburbia. With the extra space, Dr. Zomboss could build more training facilities for the zombies, only to find a genetic blueprint delivered to him personally by Alan the scientist.
