Chapter 11

Keiths POV

I didn't quite know what to think of this girl, she seemed to be hiding something. All the pilots past and present were in the control room looking at Delphie's file. Filled with the little information I got from her this morning.

The picture that they had taken of her seemed to remind him of someone, he just couldn't tell how. She had mid-length wavy hair. Her ice blue eyes peered back at him. A question started to form in his head. Why didn't she take off her coat?" Usually, when someone goes up the spare they take off their extra layer. Now he knew she was hiding something. Maybe she was hiding more scars. He was kind of shocked to find out that Maalox did live experiments. Not because he believed that it was below him, just because he hadn't heard of that happening.

"So what do we think of her? I mean, we do need a new cadet, she just doesn't seem to like to talk about herself." Always count on hunk to make a group regain focus.

"Yeah, she is an amazing fighter, and from the street feed of Dance those moves aren't just something that you learn in the street."

"And she is not telling us everything, when I asked her about her last name in the pod over here she got really mad and kind of clamped up until you guys came."

"I'm wondering on how good of a pilot she is. And I'm also confused on how Daniel and she are so close."

"They grew up together, kind of like a brother-sister thing."

"More like brother and sister in arms." With that, everyone looked at Lance.

"Could you explain that?"

"They are both trained extremely well, Daniel just doesn't show it. Have you guys ever noticed when he walks into a room how he knows everything about it even before he gets 3 steps in? And how he can slip past all of us, even without using his Volcom. It acutely kind of scary, how he can use humor to make us underestimate him." When Lance finally got down saying all of that everyone stared dumbfounded at him, But it was starting to make sense to Keith how he was right.

I could see them not really knowing about Delphie right away, after all, they just meet her. But Daniel, they knew him for about a year by now. How could they not have known? He Always seemed so easy going and laid back. But know that Lance mentioned it. Daniel being some kind of trained individuals seemed to make sense. Everything Lance said was true. The Pilots looked at each other for awhile.

"So she's in?" No one needed to say anything, they all just nodded.
