Summary:Gia Daniels,an extraordinary and ruthless commander and a rival to Enders' brain and skill, must face her greatest challenge in the form of said rival and may even take his place as the Chosen One.
"What the hell is this?" Graff asked as he watched the scoreboard of the armies changing. "Who's in charge of the Hyena Army?"
Major Anderson made a swiping motion with her hand and the profile of Gia Daniels came onto the holoscreen. The picture depicted a girl with a neat tan and long dark hair that she had draped over one shoulder and held by a golden band around the middle. "Gia Daniels. She was on the launch with Ender. According to her scores, she's ruthless, aggressive, strategic, precise, if a little impulsive. But she has the second best scores behind Ender himself."
"Why was she not brought to my attention?" Graff demanded. "She's wiping the floor with the rest of the teams, even Dragon."
"Maybe you were so concerned with Ender, you didn't notice." Anderson said nonchalantly.
"When is her next battle?"
"Tomorrow, with the Rat army. Should be an easy win."
"Yeah, no kidding. Be here tomorrow for it. Has she been evaluated?"
"She's clean."
"Hmm."
The alarm sounded and Gia swore as she swung herself out of bed. She quickly got dressed in her battle suit, leaving the front unzipped and carrying her helmet under one arm. She walked around the corner to her squad's barracks and screamed, "Let's go, Hyenas, battle in 15 minutes! Move it!" The squad leaped into action and were ready to go in 10. She lead them down to the battle room and waited for the door to open.
"Form a tank, Kane in the middle. Jake, Max, Liam, get ready to lead a rush. Tom, Dirk, Oz, I want you as snipers. Take them out from a distance. Eveyrbody, wait for my signal." Gia commanded. The doors opened, slowly and revealed the battle room to the Hyena army. The Rat army were just leaping into the room when Gia gave the command. The hyenas rushed forward. The snipers remained at the door entrance while Jake, Max and Liam immediately launched themselves forward as fast as they could straight through the battle room, followed by the tank which moved at a much slower pace. Gia herself, rode on top of the tank and picked off any she could spot. The Rat army was incredibly disorganized, with no formation or obvious tactic, just firing in any direction. The victory felt like nothing when the tank passed through the enemy door. She didn't even get hit.
Victory:Hyena Army
"That's some damn good leading." said Graff.
"Indeed, but the Rat army hasn't won a battle in years. It's hardly a great victory." Said Anderson.
"Play recordings of her other battles." The Major did so , and her earlier description of Gia was correct. She was one helluva commander. "Using the rush to distract the enemy and the tank as the manpower to win and the snipers as a failsafe. I like this kid."
"So, what are you thinking sir?" Anderson asked.
"I'm thinking we should put Gia and Enders in the same room, see how they react to each other. Bring Ender to the battle room and send word for Gia to stay there. Imagine if the two of them joined forces. It would be hell."
