AC: For all of you who's OC and his partner are present: Prepare for the chapter 24 or 25: A funny story of your OC with their partner that I'll put there. It will be a funny cool down chapter in the base. After reading the chapter, you can choose what they are doing in the base.

Example I receive: Bierk learns how to drive with walker a car and a ridiculous accident occurred.

For Alex and Odu-Bathax: Alex practices who to drive now that he is 16. Odu-Bathax is in the car and encourages him. Alex makes a mistake and it turn out awkward for them.

The chapter is long enough so I'll split it in 2; a big base tour with funny moments and, another day, a big battle in the next chapter and meeting their main enemy and a very powerful one.

You may have notice but Odu-Bathax doesn't bother being nickname Odu anymore. I just notice it myself when I re-read my chapters.


Chaotic: Creatures in human world

Chapter 20: Base tour

Guy house

They have called everyone yesterday those who have a creature's. Guy and Vinta were watching the TV until Walker arrive with the truck while Letha receives a call and she answers it.

"Hello...Hey sister! So how's life doing at New York...Fine...Why did you call? Sorry...I forgot that Christmas is coming...So it is decided we are celebrating in New York this year...Good...I'll warn my son about this...So we have to be there for December 20th...Well...Ok...I'll find a plane for reservation...I'll call you back when everything is ready." Then Letha hangs up.

"It's Aunt Susanne?" Asks Guy.

"Yes...She has call to warn us that we are celebrating Christmas in New York this year...I couldn't have said no to our tradition." Says Letha.

"I don't think I could either." Says Guy.

"...So your family is bigger than it seems?" Asks Vinta.

"Of course...Most of our family live in New York. Mom decides to live here when she meets my father." Says Guy.

"It was the good old time." Says Letha. He eyes show a past love. "But he isn't here anymore...Nevertheless, meeting the family for Christmas is a tradition we have."

"What about the family from the side of your father?" Asks Fivarth.

"...We've...Never really meet them. He was the only one who comes to America...The others have decide to stay in Romania. He never talks about them. He was in cold with them...They never say anything when my husband was dead." Says Letha.

"I see...Anyway...What is this Christmas?" Asks Fivarth.

"Well-" Guy was cut by the door bell ringing.

"It's Bierk! We are waiting for you." Says Bierk.

The group opens the door and they see Bierk smiling at them.

"Climb in." He says.

They all climb in the back and the truck rolls to the others house before heading to the base.


Middle of the town: Large building

Walker drives until they are inside the base. Everyone gets out of the truck and they look around. During all the way, Yoshi and Kaya have to explain what a Cherazon is, since no one ever knows of this tribe existence.

Guy and Vinta, Alex and Odu-Bathax, Myna and Mudeenu, Carlos and Intress, Samantha and Agitos, Walker and Bierk, Yoshi and Kaya, Michael and Nivenna, Letha and Fivarth and Sarah and Wamma. They were all present for the visit of the base of operation. They watch the soldier moving lots of stuff in boxes on vehicles to drive it to another location. Jeff appears and he looks at them with a smile.

"Welcome...I'm happy that so much of you could come." He says honestly.

"We are here like you told us." Says Letha.

"I know. As you can see, we have finished the preparation and all the room that is need for the mission to protect the town from anything dangerous." Says Jeff. "I shall guide you through all the room that are currently ready."

They start walking at his speed except Sarah who was on Wamma shoulders.

"The first room I'll show you is the training room." Says Jeff.

The room contain heavy object that can be used for lifting, they are also moving walkway, swimming poll, etc. in this big room. They were also to show them who to prepare themselves for the training.

"In here, you can train as long as you want to become stronger. It will be the best moment for the perimian to train themselves when the rest of you will be training." Says Jeff.

"In a way we are in a private school." Says Michael.

"We can say that...But your second activity is to protect the city too." Says Jeff.

"This is very interesting." Says Mudeenu. "Vinta will be able to stop sitting on his ass and do nothing for a part of the day when no one is at home." He then smirks.

"I am not doing that!" Replies Vinta.

"I know." Says Mudeenu.

"I won't always do that." Comments Kaya.

"I think it will be good for all of us." Says Myna.

"Ok...So we will now go to the next room." Says Jeff.

They walk a short distance. They pass some soldiers who are looking at them with curiosity. The first time wasn't the best moment for this. The creatures know they are observed but they focus on the visit. Like their partner, they are checking for the base weak spot and place to escape in case of treason.

"This is the place where you will study during the first half of the day." Says Jeff. "Since you are alone, it will go faster for all of you."

It was a normal class room but it was dividing into 2 parts where they can study. The humans feel like it will be an accelerate class time but also possible since they are only 8 that need to study.

"We've put you close to your partner in case of emergency and also a door that connected the 2 rooms. If you think we are stabbing you in the back...You can act faster." Says Jeff.

That was a proof that Jeff wanted to gain their trust but also to show he is on their side. They know that Jeff is really on their side...But situation can change like when Stephen was put in charge.

"You will have school during the week like always to keep a certain profile of normality." Says Jeff.

"How are you going to give an accelerated class?" Asks Guy.

"We know the best method to make you study at maximum efficiently...But that will not be for the young one here because she is too young." Says Jeff.

"A military method?" Asks Walker.

"No...The individual one, it is one of the better and one of the first way to study. You are already far advance in your study to use it. You are also responsible one so we know you can learn that way. The studying method is to give you the resume of the class. You can ask question to the teacher but since you are in small group, you'll learn faster. When it is finish, you continue study by yourself during the afternoon." Says Jeff. He then enters in the specific part but no once clearly understand him. "We shall now move to the next one. It is far away and more secure for a good reason."

They walk for a while to a fortified room.

"This is a special room." Says Jeff.

"I thought it was an ordinary one." Says Odu-Bathax with sarcasm.

"In here, we have prepared a mini armor factory." Says Jeff.

"An armor factory?" Asks Carlos.

"Yes. You know that your scanner can only give one battlegear at the time." Says Jeff.

"That's right." Confirm Samantha. "The rule for the battlegear is specific to one."

"In here, we will prepare armor to protect the your friends from dangerous weaponry the enemy might have. We were preparing it, but when we see the DNA creatures, we decide to finish it faster and it is operational now. When the visit is over, we will call each of you and your partner to prepare armor for protection." Says Jeff. "You will each be call one on one for this. You will come with your partner and we will take the different size of your body structure and make the armor from it."

"Understand...We will look more epic!" Shouts Yoshi.

"It will also be adapted to your strength. It will protect you from the blade and the gun." Says Jeff. "The danian will be excluded since they have their exoskeleton for this, but we will take the measure for another reason and Sarah too since she will not enter in the mission. She will come here for her protection."

"I will come with you for this." Says Odu-Bathax to Alex.

"Count me in." Says Bierk. "I will watch what's going on."

"You will see it when you'll be call." Says Jeff. "The next room at his size is the weapon rooms, which shall be guard because they are dangerous and should be taking only in extreme emergency."

They continued for a while to the next room.

"This is the relax room that can be used for everyone including you. Training is important but managing the stress and relaxing is also important." Says Jeff.

In the room there were some televisions, video game zone, book zone, a place to relax and lay down, etc.

"I like this place." Says Kaya and Yoshi for different reason.

"Why did you make such room?" Asks Walker.

"...Teenager." Jeff answers.

"That's more than enough reason." Says Letha.

"Hey!" Shouts every teenagers of the group.

"There's also the cafeteria for all of you to eat." Says Jeff. "It is the population that pay with taxes. We have the budget since I'm not using the money for extreme limit like Stephen and the other one before him."

"I see...So...Are we done yet or there's another place to see?" Asks Intress.

"There's another place where we have prepare vehicles of transportation. We take the measure to build appropriate vehicles for the creatures." Says Jeff.

They move to that room and they see motorcycle, jeep, truck, helicopter, plane, etc.

"That means we will drive some of those things?" Asks Wamma.

"If you want and can after practice." Answers Jeff.

"I think I'll like it." Says Agitos interest by the jeep.

"That's a very nice one." Says Walker when he sees the motorcycle. It was a good one with modification to put it at the maximum of his capacities. "I'll take that one!"

"Alright...If you know who to drive it." Says Jeff.

"Jeff..." Says Letha. "Can we borrow one of the planes when we'll have to go to New York for a week or 2 visiting the family? Because our partners will not let us alone anywhere and they'll try to follow us...I think it be best if they are sitting on a seat next to us and not dodging the suitcase and not being squish to dead by that just to hide."

"Of course." Says Jeff. "Just remember to act in discretion."

"It will be if...None of them appear there." Says Letha.

"That's one problem solve." Says Vinta. "But...Isn't a plane too big for the road?"

"It's a flying machine." Says Jeff.

"Really?" Asks Fivarth. "Where's the crystal that reduce the gravity strength of the vehicle?"

"There is not...we...It's too complicated to explain but it fly without fighting the gravity." Says Jeff. "There are 2 other places to see."

"What are those places?" Asks Bierk.

"There's the bathroom for boys and girls and the massage room when you need it." Says Jeff.

"Did you say massage?" Asks Mudeenu.

"Yes...It's the room there, the right one." Says Jeff.

"Anything else to see?" Asks Mudeenu.

"No. But I'll say that we have a medical room and also a room for clothes when you'll be in mission." says Jeff.

Jeff closes his eyes and instant and when he opens them he sees Mudeenu, Vinta and Fivarth entering in the massage room.

...

...

...

"I guess they really wanted one." Says Guy.

"We should follow their example." Says Myna.

"Me too...We will talk about my new job later." Says Letha.

"I'll join later about your proposition too." Says Walker.

"For the rest of you...You can go everywhere and we'll start calling you in one hour." Says Jeff.

They all go to the place they want to be.


Massage room

The 3 mipedians have taken out their clothes has asked and they were ask and they put a sheet around their belly down to the middle of their legs. The back wasn't well hidden because of their tail and their ass can be partially seen if the tail is too high.

They lay down on the massage table and some people come to massage their back. Their human partners arrived just after they lay down. Guy follows them since he's a boy and Letha and Myna move to the woman section.

The humans were hesitant at first, they were about to massage a creatures from another world, but when they feel that the scales of the mipedians are soft, they do it more normally and after a while they were calm and have no more hesitation.

"It's been a while since last time I've receive a massage." Says Mudeenu.

Guy lay down on another one.

"You mean when you were in Perim?" Asks Guy.

"Yeah...I am a prince there and I receive one sometime...Especially after a hard practice when I was younger." Says Mudeenu.

"As a soldier, we need some when we need to be at top of our fighting capabilities. We give it between soldiers too." Says Vinta.

"I see. What about you Fivarth?" Asks Guy.

"It is my first time...We are conjurors and we live separated than our tribe because of our power. To be honest, I like this world. Maybe because you human won't judge me and also the fact that Vinta and Mudeenu didn't comment on anything...After all...They are living here peacefully with the other tribe member here." Says Fivarth. "This place it also full of life...Is the earth all that way?" Asks Fivarth.

"No...There's some desert here in the USA...But the biggest one is the Sahara desert. It's on another continent." Says Guy.

"A unique world...I wonder if it is the Cothica...If someone here use that name...There must be a reason." Says Mudeenu.

"It is true...You do not know what the Cothica is but the mysterious human knows those words." Says Vinta.

They say nothing for a while. When the massage was finish they sit down on the table. The 2 boys and girls that massage them get out of the room.

"I wonder what's on the other side." Says Vinta. He then climbs on the closest table and he looks, his face turn orange since more of his orange blood climb to his face. "By the cothica...That's...You have to see this."

Guy looks at the direction and he knows what Vinta is seeing right now.

"You better not...You are not perverts." Says Guy.

"Come on!" Insisted Vinta.

Fivarth decides to join him and he watches.

"They...I can see more details than when they are dressed." Says Fivarth.

Mudeenu couldn't resist the curiosity and gives a little peek. He sees Myna and Letha with only the sheet around they belly. Their breast was visible and he can see a part of it. Mudeenu immediately gets down after seeing that.

"What are you doing? Stop watching them!" Orders Mudeenu.

They both look at him.

"Why?" They ask.

"You are being disrespectful. You are a soldier and it's bad to do that! I'm a prince and I just insult my title by doing this!" Says Mudeenu. "And you are forgetting that you are eye dropping the 2 most dangerous female humans of this world."

"So?" Asks Vinta.


Massage room: Female one

After a while, the massage for the 2 woman was over. They have talk about their daily life and everything and nothing.

"Well Myna...You surely one of the most respectful woman your team can have. I understand now why you are the leader." Says Letha.

"Of course. But you are the one who gives us important information when we needed...And now you will be more efficient since you are focusing on this. You have a strong spirit too." Says Myna.

"All we need now is to survive the ordeal." Says Letha.

"Yeah...Guy is a good friend too...I like him." says Myna.

"Like him as a friend of course...You are in love with Mudeenu after all." Says Letha.

"Nothing can escape you anyway...Yeah...He can be arch, cruel sometime, bossy, and play tough but...He has a good heart in him." Says Myna.

"Did he love you too?" Asks Letha.

"Of course...He's the one who say it first. He loves me because I'm strong and courageous. I'm a princess for him." Says Myna.

"That's a soft part of him...Anyway...We are being watched." Whispered Letha.

They look to their left discreetly and they see Vinta looking at them. He disappears for a few seconds when Fivarth appears too. Then Mudeenu too but his eyes was in shock and he disappears. They hear him shouting:

"What are you doing? Stop watching them!" Orders Mudeenu.

Silence for a few seconds

"You are being disrespectful. You are a soldier and it's bad! I'm a prince and I just insult my title by doing this!" Says Mudeenu. "And you are forgetting that you are eye dropping the 2 most dangerous female humans of this world."

"So?" Asks Vinta.

"We are going to kill them." Says Letha.

"Of course...But we'll spare Mudeenu...It is clear he wasn't expecting us." Says Myna.

"That is true." Says Letha.

They both look directly at the 2 perverts.

Vinta and Fivarth see them looking in their eyes.

"We are..." Vinta says nothing else.

"Doomed." Finishes Fivarth.

Letha and Myna put their clothes back on and wait for the boy to get out.

After a while, Guy gets out without real worries and they move next to them. Mudeenu gets out too but he looks nervously at Myna and Letha.

"I'm sorry. I-" Says Mudeenu sadly and waiting for anything bad.

"We know you didn't know we were there." Says Myna.

"VINTA! FIVARTH! YOU HAVE TO GET OUT OF HERE SOON! YOU CAN'T ESCAPE YOUR PUNISHMENT!" Screams Letha.

...

"Let's get them." Says Myna.

They enter in the man massage room and sound of punches and kick are heard. Soon, man voice can be heard in the room.

Myna and Letha get out of the room calmly while Guy and Mudeenu look at them with fear. Mudeenu is so glad she understands him.

Vinta and Fivarth get out with one black eye, scratches and injuries on their body and putting their hands between their legs, they have been hit violently there.

"We can...forget...about having ...child." Says Fivarth painfully. That means they have been hit there multiple times.

"-Guy and Vinta are called to the armory!-" Says a voice on the megaphone.

"Let's go." Says Guy.

Vinta follows him slowly because of the pain and the punishment.

"I'll never...Ever do that again." Says Vinta.

But will he keep his promise?


Training room

Alex, Carlos, Michael and their respective partner are there and are watching this.

"I have a question to ask." Says Michael to Odu-Bathax.

"What is it?" Asks Odu-Bathax.

"Do you know how to swim?" Asks Michael.

"Why do you ask that?" replies Odu-Bathax.

"Because insects...Which you look like...Aren't all good at that...You are also very heavy." Says Michael. "Not by fat!" He quickly adds.

Odu-Bathax knows his exoskeleton is heavy and he is a very muscular creature.

"I know how to swim!" He replies.

"Can you prove it?" Asks Nivenna with a smirk.

Intress watch this and she decides to ignore this and starts training her endurance on the moving walkway. Carlos follows her and he shows her how it works. She then starts running on it and Carlos follows her on another one.

Alex watches Odu-Bathax and the other 2 arguing.

"I don't need to prove it! It will be a waste of my time." Replies Odu-Bathax.

"Really?" Asks Nivenna.

"Really." Says Odu-Bathax.

"Show us then...If not...You are a...coward." Says Michael.

"Alright! I'll show you now!" Odu-Bathax walks at the direction of the swimming pool. He looks at it.

"When will you jump?" Asks Nivenna.

"Odu. You don't have to prove anything if you don't want to." Says Alex. "It won't change anything to me."

"Maybe your right." Says Odu-Bathax.

"I knew it. You are scare." Says Michael.

Odu-Bathax turns around and jumps in the water without thinking.

The water makes a big...Very big splashes and waters fall on Alex a little and, ironically, a lot on Michael and Nivenna.

The 3 moves closer to the poll and they see Odu-Bathax, not floating, furious and walking in the bottom of the water he jumps in the air and reaches the surface after his third try. He hangs on and he climbs back outside the poll. Water falls from his exoskeleton and he looks at Michael and Nivenna.

"So?" He asks.

"You can't swim." Says Nivenna.

"You have touched the bottom without swimming." Says Michael. "You are too heavy to know how to- Hey! Stop...Let me go!" Shouts Michael.

"Don't touch me...Stupid danian!" Shouts Nivenna.

They are both trap in his 4 arms.

"I have enough of you 2. I think you need a bath to calm down! Maybe you'll learn to shut up!" Shouts Odu-Bathax.

He throws them in the air and they fall in the poll. They swim back to the surface and they get out of the poll.

"You little bastard." Says Nivenna.

"Says the Underworlder smaller than me." Replies Odu-Bathax with a little devil smile.

"That's enough." Says Alex. "I think we should train too Odu."

"Alright...Sorry for not listening to you." Says Odu-Bathax.

"Do not worry." He then hides in front of Odu-Bathax and he smiles strongly.

"What is it?" Asks his danian friend worried.

"You so much got them...That was so hard not to laugh at." Says Alex with a full smile.

"I know." Says Odu-Bathax with a smile. "Let's start with those lifting object."

They start training while Michael and Nivenna decide to train at swimming. There were already wet anyway.

Carlos and Intress continue running.

"They were suddenly immature." Comments Intress.

"Yeah...In a way...It means everything is alright and there's nothing to worry in our mind." Says Carlos.

"Even Odu-Bathax was acting more like a kid." Says Intress.

"I don't think he never has a real childhood...In a human way of course." Says Carlos.

"That is true...He is happier then when I meet him in battle at Perim." Says Intress.

"And you...How do you feel?" Asks Carlos.

Intress is silent for a while.

"I'm worried...I wonder if Maxxor is alright...I can't help but worry about him." Admits Intress.

"That's what I've thought...When we will have finished this ordeal...We will ask that Cothica how you can return to Perim...With our help...We might be able to turn the table." Says Carlos.

"Thanks." Says Intress with a small smile. "I'm not sure how much you can help us...But I know you can."

"Maxxor is strong anyway...He won't have lost the fight. You know him." Says Carlos.

"You're right. I know him and he will not give up." Says Intress. "But...The 4 tribes are divide in this war...If...If we can united like here...Maybe there's a hope of beating them."

"They is...We just have to put the idea in their head." Says Carlos.

"Right." Says Intress.


Cafeteria

Sarah, Wamma, Yoshi and Kaya were in the cafeteria.

"You are sure you want to eat?" Asks Sarah. "You've eat not long ago."

"I haven't eat that much." Whines Wamma. "See...My stomach isn't full yet!"

"How can you tell? You're always the same." Says Sarah.

"I want a full stomach." Says Wamma.

"Mister Odu-Bathax says you eat too much." Says Sarah.

"You're not going to be bossy on me?" Asks Wamma.

"No...But he'll be angry." Says Sarah.

"Let him be...He eats a lot anyway." Says Wamma.

"I wonder who's the much glutton...Wamma or my partner Kaya." Says Yoshi with a smile.

Kaya was eating as much as Wamma. The 2 meet the eyes and they eat faster.

"This is not an eating contest!" Warns Yoshi. He was only asking out loud...Not causing a competition.

"You're tummy will explode." Says Sarah.

The 2 creatures ignore them.

"More!" They shout.

The cooker looks at them and he gives them one more portion. They eat it fast and Kaya finishes before Wamma.

"More!" They shout again.

"No way! You eat way too much. I'm surprise you haven't stomach ache already." Says the cooker.

The 2 stand up and they walk at the direction of the cooker.

"We say we want more please." Says Wamma and Kaya.

...

"For your sake it is not." Says the cooker.

"You eat enough Wamma." Says Sarah taking his arm and trying to pull a big danian.

"...Alright." Says Wamma. "What do you want to do?"

"Let's go join my brother." Says Sarah.

Wamma takes her on his shoulders and they walk to the other room.

Kaya and Yoshi were the 2 last here.

"Why do you eat so much? Your stomach will be one day stuck on the ground." Says Yoshi.

"No worry for this." Says Kaya.

Yoshi sighs and let go of the subject.

"Let's go play to the other room." Says Yoshi.

Yoshi walks to the other room and he plays a video game. Kaya lay on the ground and he watches him playing. He says his action and he sees him acting recklessly in the game.

Why do I feel it be troublesome in the real life? Says Kaya in his head. At least...I control my body. He adds to himself.

Yoshi does a game over and he lets himself fall on the back. He lands on the big belly of Kaya.

"Sorry." Says Yoshi. "Did know you were behind me."

"It's alright. I didn't feel anything." Replies Kaya.

Yoshi then sit again.

"I'll try not to do it next time." Says Yoshi.

"I know you didn't do it on purpose...But it isn't not every one of my tribe will accept this as an accident." Warns Kaya.

"I'll take note...I'm happy to be your friend." Says Yoshi.

"Me too...I can relax here and not always on the watch duty." Says Kaya. "But I miss my other friend."

"I've promise to help you and I will." Says Yoshi.

"I know...Just be less careless and reckless and it will be fine." Says Kaya.

Agitos and Samantha were at the book zone and they see Yoshi and Kaya talking.

"Agitos...Are you alright?" Asks Samantha.

"Of course." Says Agitos.

"...You don't really seem fine." Says Samantha.

"*Sigh* I'm a weak creature...I only save you at the last fight because of the card you possess...But without it...I'm powerless...How can I even protect you?" Asks Agitos.

"...Training." Says Samantha.

"Sure...And how should I train?" Asks Agitos. He didn't believe it.

"...There's a training room and Nivenna may be able to train you to become stronger." Says Samantha.

"...I don't think so...I'm not made for fighting." Says Agitos.

"Do you think I'm made to be a partner?" Asks Samantha.

"What?! Well...Yes of course." Answers Agitos.

"The answer is no. I improvise in the fight and you were injured because I was too slow. Agitos...You have to believe in you if you want to do great thing." Says Samantha.

"Believe in myself? But...Alright...I'll train but I won't guaranty the result of it." Warns Agitos.

"Do not worry...I know I can trust you." Says Samantha with a smile. "I believe you can protect me too."

"...Thanks." Says Agitos.


Road room

There is a part of the building made to practice driving the vehicles. Jeff forgets to tell it with all what he has to do.

Walker was on the motorcycle and he starts it up. The sound of the motor was strong and imposing.

"That baby has some power in her." Says Walker.

"Walker...Are you sure you know how to drive this?" Asks Bierk. "Because it's not like the truck or the car."

"Do not worry. I know how to drive one of those babes." Says Walker.

"Are you sick?" Asks Bierk.

"No...Why?" Asks Walker.

"You do not act like your usual self." Says Bierk.

"Do not worry...Let's test it out!" Says Walker.

He accelerates the motorcycle while Bierk watches him driving with worries written in the danian face. He looks at him and after a while he calm down. Walker drives it without any real problem. After a while, he sees Walker coming back at him when he makes a bad move and flies in the air.

"WALKER!" Screams Bierk.

"Oh shit! Mother god f****r" He throws blasphemy at max when he's about to die.

"I'LL GET YOU!" Screams Bierk. He raises his 4 hands and he catches Walker. Bierk falls on his back with Walker on his thorax. Walker gets down of Bierk and he helps him get up.

"Thanks." Says Walker with a smile.

"You are welcome." Says Bierk.

"I am lucky to have you. Most of the people who say I'll get you miss the person and he crashes on the ground." Says Walker with a smile.

"Really?! Wait...It's in those cartoon things right?" Asks Bierk.

"Right...Sorry to have worry you my friend." Says Walker.

"You are alright...That's enough." Says Bierk.

"I think I should train to drive it before going too much seriously and taking risk...I'm not ready for it...But after a month I think I'll be." Says Walker.

"Just...Take your time...There's no reason to rush things." Says Bierk.

"I know." He then pats the shoulders of Bierk. "I should listen to you more...Since the moment we've meet you are the voice of reason between the 2 of us." Admits Walker.

"That's right...You need someone to watch your back when you see injustice...You are a good guy but you can get too far sometime." Says Bierk.

"Yep...Just like with the motorcycle..." Walker looks at Bierk. "I'm happy to have meet you...With you...There's nothing to fear...I think I shall take the motorcycle and train starting tomorrow...I think I've hear your stomach saying I'm hungry."

"Yeah...We haven't eaten much since we have to take everyone..." Says Bierk.

"Handshake?" Asks Walker.

"Come on...We can give more than that." Says Bierk. He raises his 4 arms and hugs the young man.

"But I'm-" Walker was cut.

"It's a man hug...Nothing to worry about." Says Bierk.

Walker laughs a little and hugs Bierk. They then break up and they walk to the cafeteria.


Training room

Wamma and Sarah enter in the room and they see Odu-Bathax and Alex lifting heavy object. Of course, Odu-Bathax lifts something heavier than Alex. The 2 join them. Alex sees his little sister and he puts it on the ground.

"Hi sis." Says Alex with a smile.

"Hi big bro." Says his sis.

"Where were you?" He asks.

"We were at the cafeteria...Wamma was eating a lot." Says Sarah.

"Sarah!" Shouts Wamma. He turns around and he sees Odu-Bathax putting the object on the ground and looking at Wamma.

"Why am I not surprise." Says Odu-Bathax.

"I'm sorry...I just-" But Wamma was cut.

"You love eating so much that you forgot to train, you hide when you can and when it isn't wrong to hide...You are lousy...Etc." Says Odu-Bathax.

"I know." Says Wamma.

"I also know that you never break a promise." Adds Odu-Bathax. "But you'll have to train from now on. The battle will be difficult and you need to be strong to protect Sarah."

"Of course." Says Wamma.

"Alright...Tomorrow...It's training time." Says Odu-Bathax. "You cannot hide at all here."

"Of course." Says Wamma.

"Alright...Alex...Do you think the Cothica knows how to restore the link with the hive?" Asks Odu-Bathax.

"...I think so...If he knows so much and even able to predict when we shall meet...I think he knows that answer." Says Alex.

"That's what I think...Guy and Vinta are currently measuring...I wonder who'll be next?"

"-Alexander is called!-" Says the megaphone.

"Guess it's me." Says Alex.

He walks away and his partner follows him.


General Jeff room

Letha and Walker enter in the room with their partner. Jeff was there waiting for them.

"You wanted to talk to us." Says Walker.

"I'll be direct and short." Says Jeff. "I want you too to work in the military. I need Letha for the investigation of the replica scanner when we have finish dealing with the ordeal Guy talks to me when we made the armor with Vinta. I also want the answer of the Cothica. He appears to me time to time for a while...But I guess he won't anymore."

"Alright...It means I'll help my son more in his fight." Says Letha.

"Exatly, your salary is also the double." Says Jeff.

"I accept." Says Letha.

"Walker...Since you are a good driver and you also have some fighting skills, I need you as the transporter of the group." Says Jeff. "You'll be paid of course."

"...I didn't need to be paid to do what I've done before but alright. I think It will help me financier." Says Walker.

"Good...It's all we need to talk." Says Jeff.

They talk for small details for a while and they finish talking.


The rest of the day went that way and when the night comes they all return home.
