AN: so my muse pretty much died on the operating table this past week, but I did manage to come up with this somewhat disappointing chapter, and if i get some more reviews, then i'll continue cause i have a pretty good idea where i'm going with this now.

CHAPTER 5

Early next morning, X6-115 walked down the hall as her CO was briefing her on her assignment. "She was recaptured about a month ago, and has been in reindocteration since, but Renfro wants you to stay with 452 at all times because she still presents a flight risk."

"So basically I just follow her around and make sure she doesn't run away?"

"That's right." the CO said with a laugh, "A hell of alot easier than your last assignment. I still can't believe they sent YOU on an undercover mission to eliminate that bastard."

"Yeah." 115 replied, then they quickly straightened up and stopped talking as an X-5 approached them.

"Are you the new guard for 452?" the X-5 asked

"Yes sir." 115 replied

"She shouldn't be too much trouble for you. I doubt she's even a flight risk any more, but whatever Renfro says goes." the X-6's nodded and the X-5 continued walking down the hall leaving them outside Max's cell door.

"Man, that guy is so uptight, he needs to have a drink." 115 said

"You've been outside too long. If anyone hears you talking like that about your supieriors they're going to send you to psy-ops for a reindocteration program." the CO said seriously.

"I think you'd fit in good at psy-ops." 115 stated just as seriously, "You could be back with your own kind." she was referring to the nomilies.

"Alright, just open the door." the CO laughed along with his friend. He loved when he got to talk to 115 without commanders around, she was very easygoing, especially for a born killer.

"Yes sir." 115 mockingly saluted and opened the door to find Max lying on the cot. Her CO left and she entered the cell, closing the door behind her, then she spoke to Max, "It's just about time for the morning drills."

"Right." Max got off the cot, and looked at the young X-6 curiously.

"I'm X6-115." she had picked up on Max's questioning look, "And I will be escorting you around our beautiful institution for the next few weeks."

"Alright, whatever." Max couldn't help but smile this comment, and the fact that it was spoken by a girl around 16, wearing camoflauge, and carrying an M-16 automatic rifle, who was standing in the middle of her cell pretending to be a tour guide. Max followed the X-6 out into the hall, and listened in amusement as she continued to point out various landmarks and described a long made-up history of a red paint stain on the wall. Suddenly she stopped talking and started walking, back straight, face serious next to Max. No more than two seconds later, Renfro walked into the corridor.

"Ma'am." she saluted Renfro

"Ah, 115, I'm glad to see you got your new assignment." Then Renfro looked at Max, who saluted and stood at attention. "452, I assume everything is satisfactory."

"Yes ma'am." Max held back the loathing that she had for Renfro and told her what she wanted to hear.

"Good." Renfro nodded at 115, "Carry on."

"Man," 115 said when they were far enough down the hall, "She's something else. When she walks into the room, I almost wish for Col. Lydecker." After Max nodded, 115 continued, "Now where was I? Ah, yes the red spot on the wall..." Max just listened in amazement as she finished telling the story that she had started before Renfro's interuption.

Renfro walked up to the confrence room where three men who represented the comittee sat waiting for her. She sat down at the head of the long table and addressed the men, "Gentlemen, I think you will be quite pleased with some new developments on the prisoners." she paused, but when she got no reaction, she continued, "I am positive that the male is Eyes-Only. We used psycoactives on him and he all but confessed to it."

The man in the center nodded, "Eliminate him immediatly. How is the progress of X5-452?"

"She is coming along nicely." Renfro stated, "I think she is almost ready to be operational."

"Before you put her on any missions, make her prove her loyalty, by killing Eyes-Only."
