Hello! I am sorry I haven't updated in ages! It's been busy. Here's chapter 10, and for readers of my other stories, updates are coming! I promise!

Chapter 10

Sergeant also said that he could lose position as captain; it would be decided by his unit in two days' time. And his unit hated him; he hadn't told them about it yet, but he planned to tonight. They never left Cub alone; they acted like over protective fathers, and when he was around, like body guards to the president.

Wolf really did want to apologise, even if Cub didn't remember anything after being chased into the forest by none other than Wolf himself, angry at the time.

He was currently standing by the edge of the lake; it was the best place to think. He needed to tell the unit.

(2 days later….early morning)

Snake looked out across the lake, as the sun slowly rose behind it; making the whole thing glow a perfect shade of orange. Normally, this lake would look disgusting and green and murky and uninviting, but right now it looked like heaven. Well, heaven for this hell. That's one of the reasons that the Scotsman was standing here right now, it was beautiful, just like the lake he used to see from his bedroom window every morning as he grew up as a little boy in Scotland.

It was also a good place to think. Today was the day that the unit decided on whether or not they should keep Wolf as their captain. It was a difficult decision for all of them. However much they all had a strong sense of dislike for the man right now, none of them wanted to have the responsibility of captain. Not in the sense that they couldn't be bothered to do it, but in the sense that they weren't natural born leaders like Wolf was. That was why they chose him in the first place.

And the last thing they wanted was for a new person to be added to their unit. They liked it better with Wolf than they would with any other man.

Over the last two days, Snake, Eagle and Fox had done all they could to keep Wolf from Cub, and vice versa. They knew that the action was kind of childish but at the same time the protective feeling was too strong. Was it a paternal feeling they all shared, or more of a brotherly feeling? Or just one of a guardian, who knew when it their responsibility and when it wasn't. Like protecting the child but not babying them.

Of course none of them would actually tell Cub that they wanted to protect him. Being the teen he was, in his eyes all he saw was 3 over protective men that wouldn't leave him alone. Although, they all knew that Cub considered them as some form of friends, Eagle more than the other two. He was definitely a friend in Cub's eyes, and of course their eyes and Eagle's as well.

He shook his head and started walking round the lake. He had 15 minutes before the Sergeant would blow the horn and they were expected to start running 5 minutes later. So he decided for a lap round the lake, a walk to clear his head, so he could make an appropriate decision when it came to deciding if they still wanted Wolf as their leader. They were all to say at lunch, in the sergeant office in front of him and Wolf. Cub would also vote, he was a part of their unit after all.

15 minutes later found Snake at the cabin, sitting on his bed absentmindedly day dreaming as the rest of his unit scrambled around to find their clothes and get dressed for the run, including Wolf. Cub was getting dressed, but he wasn't going to start on the morning run until tomorrow, even though he would've started the day he got out of the infirmary if he had had it his way. But with an overprotective medic in his way, things were difficult. So right now, instead of running he would be heading to the mess hall to help the cook with whatever. He didn't mind, and didn't see it as a punishment at all; in fact it had been his choice.

Half an hour later and they were all sitting at their table, eating a rather tasty (for Brecon beacons) breakfast of beans and sausages and a soggy waffle, which they all gobbled down. Wolf sat to the side, not part of the conversation. Of course not.

(Alex POV)

I took a bite out the sausage and looked up, around the table. Eagle was talking to Snake, Fox listening in, and then they all laughed. I wasn't really in the mood for talking and all that; I was tired. I still ached a lot, but nowhere near as much as I did 4 days ago.

But ever since Wolf had told us that we were having the decision on whether to keep him as our captain, it was the only thing I could think about. Obviously I couldn't remember what he had done, only heard from Snake, but it was irrational and stupid and yes, irresponsible, but personally I didn't see why the rest of the unit were acting so horrible to him. They wouldn't let me talk to him; something I wanted to do. I wanted to know what was going through his head that night.

He was always unhappy now and quiet and depressed looking. I know I should be angry with him; I should hate and despise him as much as the rest of the unit do, but I can't. I can't because I know exactly how he feels right now. A week ago it was me being ignored and not being talked too, and I hated every minute of it. Why should he get what I got? Yes he may have been the reason I got that treatment, but I was an intruder, I get that. But he wasn't, and it wasn't like I died or anything, I had been through much much worse.

Maybe it was the child's side of me talking right now. I shook my head and took another bite of the sausage, one thing decided;

I was going to talk to wolf today, one way or another. I had too. I didn't want to lose him as captain, he was the only one I would trust to be the captain, the leader, when we did missions together or whatever we were planned to do by the heads.

(Back to 3rd)

K-Unit exited the mess hall, heading for the assault course. Cub was the in the middle, Wolf to his left. It was then that he made his first move for his plan.

He bent down and undid his shoelace. The others turned around to see what he was doing.

"Sorry guys, shoelace" he said as he began to slowly tie it.

Snake looked suspiciously at him, and Alex could feel them watching as he slowly did up the lace. Wolf had continued walking, but at a considerably slower pace.

Alex looked up, working out the distances. Snake was roughly a metre to his right, Eagle a metre to his left and Fox directly in front of him, also a metre. In the distance, Wolf was turning to the right to go to the course.

Luckily for Alex, he knew a shortcut directly to his right that would take him to the middle of the assault course, where Wolf would be by the time he got there.

In a split second, he was sprinting for the gap in the tree's; his shortcut. Three sets of heavy footsteps followed after him, gaining on him. Good thing he was a fast sprinter. He tore through the unused path, branches slicing his hands as he pushed them away.

As he was running, he was thinking. Was this a good idea? Would the others be angry? Had they had an order from a superior to keep him away from Wolf, and if so then would they get in to trouble because of it? Pushing the thoughts away, he headed further into the darkening forest, as the tree's got thicker and effectively blocking the sunlight.

He hoped that he could eventually (but before lunchtime!) get the unit back together so that they would lose Wolf as captain.

Because if they did then their lives would be at risk.

Will Alex change Eagle. Snake and Fox's minds? What will they do when they find out Alex ran off to talk to Wolf? please review!:) x
