A/N: So I have added several extra characters to this story, instead of just Delta squad, it's going to be *a big mess* Omega squad and I'm going to add some infantry troops as well. I won't promise they will be in every single chapter but they will show up now and then. It will still stay in Delta's POV. Just a friendly reminder, if any names are given for Delta; Scorch is Connor, Sev is Jason, Boss is Logan and Timothy is Fixer.

### Scorch's POV

"Boys get ready,we've been practicing all year for this moment, don't waste all of it by sleeping in." Dad called from downstairs, today was the day, the day that everyone looks forward to every year. For normal people it was holidays but not for us. Once a year in summer, a day is picked for the annual paintball tournament. Everyone chips in to buy out a paintball arena for a day and there's three teams. Delta, Omega and Blue (Original I know.). Is it considered cheating if we train for the day? Probably.

"Scorch, come on, we're going to be late!" Sev said racing past my door.

"Like you can say anything Sev! It's always you who slows us down!" I yelled after him

"Well not today, it's today where I can shoot Atin in the face!"

"That's against the rules! You're going to give us a penalty!"

"It's not like the others haven't cheated before…" I heard him mumble under his breath

"Boys lets go!" Father yelled from downstairs, grabbing the black bags with the paintball guns and ammo.

"Race you!" Sev said as he bolted for the stairs

"Hey, no fair!" I yelled as I sprinted after him, just as Sev was about to touch the last step I jumped and tackled after him. Hitting my target, we both fell and slid against the wood flooring, stopping right in front of Father and Boss who was both carrying bags.

"Are you two quite finished?" Father asked looking down at us with a raised eyebrow. "Save the roughhousing for the tournament, not for each other."

"Sorry, Dad." I said as I got off Sev and brushed the nonexistent dirt off of my shorts "Just had to even a deal with Sev is all."

"Even the deal? You tackled me, how is that possibly evening a deal?" Sev asked exasperated on the floor, gasping between some words.

"You cheated." I said smiling, Sev was about to speak when Dad spoke first

"Speaking of cheating, none of you will cheat during this tournament, I could let the other times slide, what with the Null Team being practically experts, but they won't be there today and you have been practicing to play a FAIR game. That goes for you Jason." I snorted lightly in the background, Dad having the ears of a hawk turned and glared at me too. "And you too Connor. It's always the two of you who are, in your words, cheating, no explosions, no tackling, no punching, no groin shots and most definitely no head shots." He turned to Sev on the last one.

### Later that day

"Alright, this is how we will set up the matches for the tournament, first up Omega and Infantry will go in and after a 30 minute break Delta will go in with Infantry, break, each will go against each other 3 times and whoever wins will go against each other another 3 times. This year we are changing it up, not only will we have a team winning, but we will also test individually. Is there any questions?" Kal asked demonstrating in front of a whiteboard. Nobody said or did anything. "Good, then let the tournament begin.
