Hello everyone, who's ready for Max's first day of work?

Max watched the black SUV pull up and stop in his driveway. He reminisced about Mono's arrival and how it wasn't long ago, only a couple weeks in fact. He opened the door to find both Mary and Judy in the back.

"Hello Max." They both said, letting him get in.

"Hello Agent Cullings and Agent Cullings." Max greeted them jokingly.

"Today should be pretty simple," Mary explained, "You'll be following me around as I show you how things are done on our side and a bit of basic training." "So nothing too exciting."

"That's what I expected." Max said. The trip most of the way was silent but Max asked a question he had for the longest time. "So am I the first human on a liminal strike team."

"First in America but not overall, there's a human man who leads the Bravo squad in Japan." Judy told him. "Maybe you'll meet him one day."

The SUV pulled to a stop in front of a gray office building near the outskirts of town. Max stepped out and asked "Umm… This is a super secret government strike team base?"

"No... It's underground." Mary explained. She walked up to the door and swiped a key card.

"You'll get a keycard after your tour." Judy told Max, entering through the open door. Max stepped in to see people, human and liminal, running around getting stuff done until "Attention!"

A tall old man said walking out. Mary nudge Max and he stood at attention. The man walked up to Max and said, "Everyone, This is Max Port. He's our human strike team member." He announced to everyone. They all said things like "Welcome" and "Congrats." The man introduced himself. "My name is Tyler Warborn. It's nice to meet you."

"The pleasure is all mine sir." Max said shaking his hand.

"I have great hope for you. I saw the footage of your fight, I'm impressed that you held him that long without any training. That means you need to train double time." He explained. "Mary, give him the tour and get him started." He explained, Judy followed him as Mary and Max headed towards the elevator.

Max was shown the armory, the break room, the offices, the helipad and more. One of the stops on his tour was the gun range. "We'll start you out small, maybe a taser, after that a 9mm gun." Mary said joking around. Max picked up a 9mm gun sitting near one of the targets and put on the earmuffs. He fired 6 shots into the target getting 5 in a circle around the last shot in the center. The agents all looked at the target and back at Max surprised, even Mary lowered her shades.

"My dad is a huge gun nut. Every other weekend, we'd shoot at his station's gun range." He explained, setting down the gun. "We can skip gun training."

"...Alright. We have one final place on the tour and that's where your ID will be." Mary explained. She lead Max to the locker room. "Inside will be your uniform and your new badges. I can't follow you in because... you know."

"Thanks, I'll see you on the other side." Max said walking in. He found the locker with "M. Port" and opened it. He found the basic MON uniform with goggles around the neck. He picked them up to find the side covering his right eye was glossed over so that they couldn't see through to his eyes but he could see out. Kinda like a one way mirror. It showed his white eye. On the back of his uniform and on his ID read "Dead-Eye".

Max stepped out of the locker room and found Mary. "It looks amazing, The goggles were Judy's idea and it turned out better than I expected." She said standing up. Max went to say something until Mary's radio beeped.

"Mary, are you done with Max's tour?" asked Tyler.

"Yeah, do you need him for something?" Mary asked.

"The nearby tech center is being robbed. Human and liminial. It's time for his first mission."

"So soon?! He just started today!" Mary said surprised.

"We don't have time to debate, he'll also be joined by MON Alpha, he'll be fine." He said right before the radio cut out.

"Well, Max. There's nothing I can do. It's time to fight the good fight."
