The Commander woke up early today. After doing his daily routine of getting ready for the day. So far 6 days had passed since the children began their training and today was the final day. The children had completed the daily training exercises although some have done better then the others. He was extremely proud of the progress that they have made.
Walking into the cafeteria the Commander noticed that all of the children were there eating breakfast. Walking over to a table he sat down and waited for his breakfast to be ready. He watched as the children were chatting to each other about different topics. It was then that he noticed that Fuel was flirting was Richie.
Fuel must have said something wrong because he was soon kicked in the nuts by Richie. The Commander watched as he fell backwards and out of the chair he was sitting on holding his nuts and crying out in pain. The Commander rolled his eyes and shook his head. It was pretty obvious that Fuel had feelings for Richie, but he was such a nervous wreck that he always ended up making a fool of himself. To be honest he had no issues with anyone falling in love as long as it didn't affect their work. He didn't have to wait long as his breakfast had just arrived.
After eating breakfast the Commander and the children headed toward the training room. After arriving the children lined up and waited for the Commander to begin their lesson.
"Alright everyone today is your final day of training. Today you will be doing combat training. If you look over to your right you will see various weapons lined up across the wall. All of your mechanical arms have Plasma Cannons that will be used as long range attacks. These weapons will be used as your close combat. So choose a weapon that you would think would be best for you."
The Commander watched as they all walked over to the weapons and began looking them over. After testing the weapons the children walked back over to the Commander with their weapon of choice in their hands. "Is that your choice?"
The children nodded their heads.
"Very well put your weapons on the ground because your going to be doing long range attacks first. After that well will do close range and finally hand to hand combat."
The children placed their weapons on the ground before transforming their arm into Plasma Cannons. Though those who have two mechanical arms like Tracy, Minnie, Nana and Nichol have two guns.
The Commander walked over to the control panel on the wall and began pressing buttons. Holes suddenly opened up from the ground as targets began rising out of the ground and the ceiling. Some targets were on mechanisms that moved them around from side to side and up and down.
"There are 18 targets here. You must be at least 20 feet away from the target. In order to move on to the next target you must hit it in the center. Now line up and get ready to begin."
The children formed a line with Tracy in the front. Tracy aimed her right arm up and took a shot firing a beam from out of the cannon. The beam hit the target on the side. She tried again this time hitting the upper part of the target. She kept firing a few more times before finally hitting the center. She nodded her head before moving up to the next target.
Fuel was the next one up. He lifted his left arm up and took a shot hitting the target in the center. He blew on his gun before making his way over to the next target.
One by one the children started taking turns shooting at the targets. Some did good some took a while to do it.
The Commander continued watching the children not saying anything about how they were doing. Everything went downhill when it came to the moving targets. Tracy had been stuck on the target for the past 5 minutes now. The Commander sighed as he transformed his right arm into a Plasma Cannon. He walked over to where Tracy was. Standing next to her he took a shot and hit the target in the center. This caused her to stop what she was doing and looked at him with a surprised expression on her face.
"You're doing it all wrong. Blindly following the target is not going to work. You have to understand the targets pattern. Predict where and when it will appear then take your shot."
Tracy nodded her head and watched the target carefully. After a bit of waiting she fired and hit the target in the center.
"There you go. Just remember what I told you and you should be fine."
The Commander walked away and back to where he was standing before. He continued watching the children seeing them do better after his advice.
Soon the children finished and walked over to the Commander and stood in front of him. They all have proud smiles on their faces.
"Well done everyone. Now take a 15 minute break before we work on the next part of your training."
Everyone gave a sigh of relief before sitting on the ground.
After 15 minutes had past everyone stood up and walked over to their weapons and picked them up. They watched as the Commander walked over to the control panel and started pressing buttons again.
The room had started transforming once again. This time droids came out from the ground. The droids were red in color and had guns on their right arms.
"As you can see these aren't chimera's, but robots. These are used for training purposes. Their guns are filled with marbles so you won't get hurt when you get hit. All you have to do is destroy them simple as that."
"So Commander what is your weapon?" Fuel asked.
The Commander reached for his belt and he pulled two swords from seemly nowhere. The swords were the same design as Claus's thunder sword except they were red instead of yellow. The swords started glowing before they lit on fire.
"My weapons are two swords. By channeling PSI into them I can light them on fire and perform powerful flame attacks."
The fire went away from the swords before the Commander put away the swords.
"Wow that's so amazing."
"Yes it is. Now then let's see what weapons you have chosen. Fuel you chose the giant hammer. Tracy you have a scythe, Minnie a spear, Mimmie a dual bladed sword and the rest of you have similar weapons. Now put those dodging skills to use and show me what you can do."
"Yes sir!"
Everyone shouted before running toward the droids.
The Commander was making sure to watch closely in order to see who the best fighter was. He watched as Tracy took out 4 droids at once with her scythe. A droid started shooting at her but she started spinning the scythe deflecting the marbles away without a single one touching her. She then ran over and cut that one in half. The Commander had to admit that she was a pretty decent fighter. He wondered where she got the skill from. Either someone taught her before or she just knew it by instinct.
The Commander continued to observe the others watching them fight their hardest. He was quite surprised how good these kids were fighting like this. It took the Pigmasks a lot longer to get used to fighting and they were adults. Then again they say that the younger you are the more energy you have. Well that would be true if you were human. These kids were chimeras like him and since chimeras are half robot they don't tend to get tired as easily as normal people do. He on the other hand has lots of energy. He could fight for days on end without resting.
About 5 minutes later all of the droids were destroyed. The children started to brag about how many they destroyed with some arguments saying that they were lying about how many they destroyed. The Commander knew that Tracy destroyed the most considering that her weapon could hit multiple targets at once.
Getting tired of the arguments the Commander coughed loudly causing everyone to look at him. "Well I'm glad that you all had fun. Now for the final part of today's training you will be learning hand to hand combat. You will be put in pairs of two and you will be fighting against the other. Now try not to hurt each other to badly okay?"
"Yes sir."
"Good here are your pairs. Tracy you will be paired up with Mimmie. Minnie you will be paired up with Nana. Fuel your partner is Richie. The rest of you can chose your partners."
Fuel watched as Richie narrowed her eyes at him. "Good I still haven't paid you back for you staring at my chest and that comment that went along with it."
Fuel began to get nervous. He then raised his hand. "Um sir, can I please have a different partner?"
"No, you two need to settle your lovers quarrel. What better way then to fight each other."
Richie blushed. "We don't have a lovers quarrel. He's just a moron who says stupid things."
"Sure whatever you say. Also girls please don't kick the guys in the balls. This is supposed to be a nice friendly exercise."
"So punching each others lights out is what you call friendly?"
"Yes because it's part of your training. Now don't hit too hard okay?"
Richie frowned. "So what your saying is that we can't do this?" she asked as she kicked Fuel in the nuts.
Fuel groaned as he fell to the ground.
The Commander sighed. "Richie, I know where this is going, I'm not an idiot. Now knock it off or else you'll be getting janitor duty for a week. Seriously whatever idiotic thing Fuel said this morning get over it. Now shut up and get busy I don't have a lot of patience."
Richie sighed. "Fine, forgive my actions sir. Now get up baby and let's do this."
Fuel scowled as he stood up. "Hey I'm no baby, but you'll be when I'm through with you."
Richie narrowed her eyes. "Well see about that." she said as she threw a punch only for him to block.
The Commander watched as everyone started fighting each other. As he observed he noticed that everyone was doing pretty well fighting like this. So far not a single person had been hit and he knew that his training was successful. After an hour had passed he stopped everyone.
"Alright everyone that's enough. Congratulations you have successfully completed your training and are now officially part of the Pigmask army."
Everyone stopped fighting and looked at the Commander with surprised looks on their faces. "Really you mean it?" Fuel asked.
The Commander nodded his head. "Yes, you are free to do whatever you want for the rest of the day."
"Alright!" Fuel shouted as he walked out of the room.
Soon everyone walked out of the training room and went off to do their own thing.
The Commander sighed. "Training the other Pigmasks was a lot easier then this. However I'm glad that this is over. Now to report to Master Porky."
The Commander walked out of the training room and went upstairs heading toward the meeting room. Upon arriving he knocked on the door before walking in. Fero and Porky who were in the middle of talking stopped when the Commander walked in. "Their training is now complete. They are now ready to help with the search."
Porky nodded. "Good Fero and I were just discussing that. We decided that you should focus on destroying the seals while the Pigmasks, children and Tyrants look for the seals. So here are your orders, rest up for today and tomorrow you'll go for the first seal located in Tazmily Village, got it?"
The Commander nodded his head. "As you wish Master Porky."
With that said the Commander turned around and left.
