Our bodies stood at the edge of the mat, head straight, emotionless, standing in an at ease stance, as me being in the beginning of the line instead of Zack. Our session today was different as another group of kids on the other side of the mat, starring straight at us. There were twelve to fourteen years of age, all young teenage boys as there is no females in the group. Odd.

Two men come into the combat training room. One man as old as Lydecker, Canadian, blonde hair, cold gray eyes, wearing a nice fitted brown army uniform. The other was early thirties, white male, hair shaved into a crew cut, also wearing an army uniform. They walk up to Lydecker who is standing near me. They stop as the older man gives a little smirk to Lydecker.

"So Lydecker, how far are your soldiers been improved sense the last time I seen them and quite frankly I do add, were defeated by my x-4s."

Lydecker brutally eyes him, always hating the word defeated from another officer's mouth about his kids. "Mayor Mansion, and you are?"

"Ssgt. Brain Dalson."

Lydecker give a grunt and look at Mansion. "They much improved in every aspect of there tactical training exercises we have given them. You see, last year they were less experienced but now there little better," He partly smiles. "Much better then you may expect. We only needed a little more time to make them know how powerful they really can become once there mine is set on it."

Mansion sneer. "The mind controls the body theory? Lets be realistic Lydecker. That saying can only go so far because when it comes right down to it, there's the good and there's the best."

"You don't believe me."

"I'm not doubting your military training Lydecker."

"Then you mine as while," Lydecker indicate from Mansion words. "But if you want proof, and I think you are, then lets start."

"Fine then. Lets start off with a little demonstration." Mansion gives a nod to Dalson.

"X-4 292 step forward!" Dalson voice echoed in the room.

An x-4 soldier step forward, eyes pointing at Zack as if having a past history together. He must have been the oldest out of the x-4s, standing taller then the other boys in his squad.

"Sir!" He shouts out in a deep voice as puberty catches up to him.

Lydecker thoroughly eyes his squad now; picking who will take on this fully equipped well trained soldier. "X-5.," Pausing for four seconds. "995, step forward."

What? I told myself and probably everybody else in my squad. I knew what they wanted us to do but he's ten years worth of training then me.but.then again, my brothers and sister were ahead of me in training when I first meet them and I beat most of them in combat training less then four months. Maybe Lydecker have too much confidence in me and maybe I should too. Now was the time to show what the full me can do without holding back as I normally do with my siblings.

I step forward. "Sir!"

The boy eyes stare at me as I sensed he was laughing at me inside as while as Mansion as he chuckled.

"I don't see what's so funny. You see, 995 is a new addition to the x-5 unit and let me assure you, her unique skills will come as a shock." Lydecker said.

"Lydecker, never thought of you of. faith type of guy, putting to much in one single child."

"Soldier," Correcting him quickly. "If you don't believe me then send in two more of your soldiers against her."

Mansion strongly eyes him. "Fine." He looks at Dalson again.

"612 and 325 step forward!" Dalson yelled.

They step forward as they both look around the same age but not physically fit as 292. I eye Lydecker then back at the boys as if he wanted to humiliate me in front of my squad if I lose. But losing is not an option for me today. My goal is to win and only win because it's time to prove myself.

"Sir!" They both yell.

A dead silence was in the air for ten seconds.

"Get her soldiers!" Dalson demanded out loud.
