Chapter 7
Damn it! This was so infuriating. He couldn't watch this anymore, if they were all going to take Manticore down then they have to do it now. Now that Manitcore's soldier count was lower then usual. Zack kept his face expressionless as he watch his siblings and the other transgenics laughing, being carefree when they had a major problem in there hands. He envied them, being able to tuck away their problems from their minds. But Zack couldn't do that, if he were ever to stop thinking about them being in danger, all of their lives would be in graver danger then usual. They needed at least someone to look out for them, and that was his job as their big brother and C.O. Maybe now he had taken on another job making his the more harder, now that Brian the X8's brother and C.O was gone.
Zack had taken in the last laugh from the transgenics that stood before him. There was no way he was going to let this stupid carefree business happen anymore. Zack stood up, cleared his throat and began to speak. "Listen up everyone!" Everyone stopped what they were doing and looked up; their attention was now on Zack. "We've let this carefree business go on too long, we need to act now! Now that Manticore is weaker. We're going to take this opportunity." Everyone's faces turned to stone; their faces once again sported seriousness. Zane was the first to speak, "Okay Zack, then what do you suppose we do?" "We devise a plan." Came his answer, and with that the transgenics and Logan of course took out the floor plans once again and went to work on a plan that would take Manticore down once and for all.
*~*~*
It was now six-o clock in the morning, the sky was still dark and the air was cold and crisp on this day in January. Brian awoke feeling the cold air coming in through the tiny barred window. The lights suddenly clicked on, it was time for training. Brian groaned as he sat up, he rubbed the sleep from his crystal blue eyes, ran a hand through his short blonde hair and got up just as a soldier unlocked his barracks. Both soldiers saluted one another and Brian walked down the lonely hallways toward the training area. He only stopped to look into the nursery and smiled at the one he now named Aiden. Then he reluctantly turned away and went into the training room where he would train with the X6's.
Brian walked into the little gym surprised no one was in there. Yet he could sense people behind him, Brian only smirked. An X6 descended from the roof; the ones behind him started to circle around him. The fight was on. There were five X6's in all three lunged toward him. Yet Brian only stood there awaiting their attacks. The X6's kicked, and punch trying to land an attack. Brian was too fast, he may be older then them, but he was more advanced… after all he is an X8. Soon the other X6's joined the pursuit, only to have all five lying on the ground in defeat. "You guys are getting better" he laughed.
His laugh was cut short as a clapping sound was heard. Brian looked up from the X6's on the ground, only to see Renfro standing in front of him clapping. Brian's smile vanished from his face his now was expressionless. "Very good 682, very good. I think you're almost ready for your first mission. A mission that you will be executing with 840." Brian suddenly felt the anger rise within him, yet he was careful not to let his expression show. If he had to go near 840 he would kill him; Brian would kill that bastard for betraying him and their family.
