CHAPTER 3

Rendezvous and Preparation

1

Far away deep in Robotropolis lays an underground base. Containing it are three hedgehogs. In the living room is a green hedgehog named Manic. Manic looks very much like his older brother, Sonic, except his fur is green, and he has a wild spike hair do on the top of his head. His attire includes an orange vest, fanny pack, spiked bracelets, and he left ear is double-pierced with two round gold earrings. Around his neck is a medallion shaped like a drum set.

Manic can be difficult but he is very loyal to his cause. One look of him can define him as a punk, whereas he is really a soft-spoken gentleman. Loyalty is truly on his side, he will always place the mission before himself against fights with Robotnik. While not fighting Robotnik, he is a drummer of the rock band 'Sonic Underground.'

Manic is currently playing on his drum set while looking at drum sheet music. He's playing a soft moderate beat. Soft and sensitive enough for other residents in the house to concentrate on their own work. That all ended when his older brother, Sonic, walked in.

Sonic the Hedgehog, a blue hedgehog with an electric guitar around his shoulder, walked in the living room carrying a dolly with a huge amplifier in tow. Sonic and Manic were born on the same day, but Sonic was born at leased ten minutes earlier. Around Sonic's neck is his trademark medallion shaped like a guitar.

"Yo, bro, you don't mind if I practice here," Sonic said while plugging in the amplifier in the wall outlet. He then slid the guitar over his shoulder and aligned his fingers on the chords.

Manic stopped playing. "Uh, actually Sonic, I do kinda mind because I'm prac--"

Before Manic finished, Sonic played his guitar really loud. He was playing heavy metal type of rock, and it was annoying the hell out of Manic.

"SONIC! TURN IT OFF!" Manic screamed after his sheet music was blown away from the amplifier's strong wind and his hair is being blown backwards.

Sonic, ignored Manic (or probably can't hear him), continued playing his guitar. He did guitar dance moves as his guitar music was blasting the place.

"TURN OFF THAT GODDAMN GUITAR!!!" Manic screamed.

Sonic continued to play.

Manic gave up and he got off his drum set. He started walking to the amplifier to turn it off. But the more he walked closer to it, the more the amplifiers sound was blowing him backwards. It was like Manic was trying to walk hard into a huge strong electric fan. When Manic was close to it, the amplifier was blowing him backwards with his sneakers skidding across the floor making marks.

Manic got a grip and walked faster and closer to it. Then his whole fanny pack unbuckled and flew backwards off of Manic. It hit the wall and it stuck there by the wind.

Sonic kept on jamming at his guitar not noticing Manic.

Manic walked on when he tripped and fell forward. He grabbed onto his drum set, which was also being dragged. Manic held onto his drum set in a horizontal position by the amplifier's strong blasts. Suddenly, Manic's shoes and socks slid right off his feet like a hot knife threw butter.

"Stupid older brothers!" Manic yelled to himself.

Slowly, Manic got back on his feet (literally) and walked harder to the blowing amplifier. Then his arms were blown backwards and his head too. His two earrings slipped out of their pierced holes. Then his whole vest slid right off along with his gloves. His spiked bracelets slid off too and they were blown backwards towards the pictures. The spikes on the bracelets hit both of Manic's eyes in the family portrait.

The wind blew Manic around at 180 degrees, forcing his back to face with strong amplifier's winds. Quickly, he saw the portrait with his bracelets stuck in the picture's eyes of Manic.

"Holy, talk about keeping your eyes pealed," Manic said to himself. With that, Manic's drum medallion slid right off his neck and it stuck to the wall too.

Sonic kept on jamming at his guitar. Manic slowly walked to Sonic, and without Sonic noticing, Manic slid off Sonic's guitar medallion. Manic put on the guitar medallion and his feet were at a Sonic speed blur. Manic, at Sonic's speed, ran to the amplifier.

The medallions that Sonic, Manic, and their middle sister wear contain special powers. Sonic is able to run at high speeds with his medallion, their sister Sonia can perform tornado attacks, and Manic can create earthquakes. Manic slid on Sonic's medallion and obtained his power to run at high speed.

Sonic played his heavy metal guitar music rapidly. Until suddenly, it wall all silent. When Sonic plucked a string, it did not make any noise. Sonic was confused. He looked at the amplifier and noticed a very pissed off Manic starring at him with his thumb on the off switch.

"Uh, hi Manic," Sonic said nervously.

Manic just walked to Sonic and grabbed his neck. Manic held Sonic high and held him to the wall.

"You idiot! Who needs Sonia to do that Super Twirl Twister thing when you could just play your guitar with an amplifier that is over a million watts! You do that again and I will personally pierce your ears with my teeth! Got it?" Manic said angrily, teeth showing.

Sonic looked scared. "Fine, sorry man." Manic let go of Sonic and instantly shown a bit of sorrow for his anger. Manic looked up to Sonic. Not only was Sonic his older brother, but he was also like his best friend. He looks up to Sonic as an influence and, as reckless as Sonic may be, he can also be a good example toward Manic.

"Next time, practice your acoustic guitar when I'm in the same room," Manic said with an apologetic sigh.

Then, in a flash, Sonia entered the room with her laptop computer. Sonia was their middle sister. Sonic, Sonia, and Manic are triplets. Besides the fact that they have similar body shapes and facial features, they look nothing alike. Sonia's fur is pink with a whole head of hair and her attire is that of a purple skirt with a red shirt. Around her neck is a silver medallion in the shape of a keyboard. She is also the keyboard player of the 'Sonic Underground' band. She was born between Sonic and Manic, marking her as the middle child.

Sonia was also considered the most intelligent but sometimes stuck-up child of the triplets. She was raised in royalty and beauty, so she is not easily accustomed to getting down and dirty in missions against Robotnik. However, Sonia can be helpful with her high intelligence to when it comes to outsmarting the enemy.

"Guys, I hacked into Robotnik's computer. We've got a problem," Sonia said with her active laptop.

"You too?" Manic asked sarcastically looking at Sonic angrily. Sonia eyed Manic weirdly. Sonia then suddenly realized that Manic was not wearing any of his clothes.

"Manic, unless you have to go to the bathroom or take a shower, you have to keep your cloths on," Sonia said.

Manic just growled. He walked to the floor by the walls to get his stuff. Since the amplifier went off, everything that was sticking to the walls dropped except his bracelets witch got stuck.

Sonic approached Sonia and looked over her shoulder to face the laptop.

"So, what's old buttnik up to now?" Sonic asked. Sonic had a tendency to call Robotnik 'buttnik.' It is not original to call the enemy by hurtful named. During the Mogadishu raid in Somalia, the Americans called the militia 'skinnies' because of their lack of muscle and short heights.

"Something about... where's your medallion, Sonic?" Sonia asked. Manic called while getting his stuff.

"I have it," Manic said holding up Sonic's medallion from his neck. "Want me to heave it at you, Sonic?" Manic asked in a sarcastic laugh. Sonic could not help but chuckle at his question. Manic easily tossed the medallion and Sonic caught it in the cup of his hands.

"Anyway, take a look at this," Sonia said.

The three gathered around, even though Manic was putting on his fanny pack while keeping his eyes fixed on the laptop screen.

"It says that Robotnik made a portal called the Dimensional Matter Displacer. He can grab humans from the planet of Earth and bring them here on Mobius," Sonia said. Manic put on his vest while watching the screen showing the coordinates to the portal.

"Has anyone been captured from Earth yet?" Sonic asked.

"Yeah, only one. It's a red haired man named Ryan Perreault. He plans to robotosize him, and if it works he'll get more humans!" Sonia said shockingly.

"Where is this boy Ryan so we can bust him out?" Manic said while bent over putting on his socks.

"He did the hard work for us. While this Ryan fellow was being interrogated, he escaped," Sonia said.

"Say what? Why would Robotnik want to interrogate anyone before robotosizing them?" Sonic said. Manic sprung up.

"Well, I did find Ryan's profile. Get this, he is named Staff Sergeant Ryan Perreault, United States Army," Sonia explained.

"Wow, a soldier boy? Can he fight?" Manic asked, thinking that an American soldier in their world is cool.

"I doubt it, Manic," Sonia replied. "He was just a mechanic, never saw combat, never fired a weapon outside of Basic Training, never been to another country. I doubt he'll be of any use to us as a fighter. Anyway, we got to find him, he escaped."

"To where?" Manic asked.

"We don't know. He could be somewhere out in Robotropolis," Sonia said.

"Well then let's find him!" Sonic said. He leaped into action and ran out the door.

"Sonic! Wait!" Sonia called but it was too late, Sonic was already gone. He zipped out of the underground rebel base and into the cities of Robotropolis.

Sonia closed her computer and ran after Sonic. Manic was hopping on one foot behind Sonia while tying his second shoe. He's nearly fully dressed now.

Sonia stood at the edge of the door worriedly for Sonic. Manic ran out and stood next to her while putting his medallion around his neck.

"Could you help me with me earrings, Sonia?" Manic asked. Without responding, Sonia took one of Manic's earrings and stared putting it in Manic's piercing hole.

"Where in this city could he be?" Manic asked.

"You know Sonic, he could be at a chili dog stand," Sonia asked getting ready to put in the second earring. Everyone on the planet knows that Sonic has a huge love-passion for chili dogs. He could eat an endless supply of them without tiring out.

"No, I mean Ryan," Manic asked.

"I don't know, I just hope he might be alright," Sonia said finishing with Manic's earring.

FOUR YEARS AGO

Ryan Perreault stood in front of a long line of recruits wearing his Battle Dress Uniform in the digital pattern. The instructor who he met at the beginning of the course stood in front of Ryan. In his hand is a small piece of metal. It is the airborne jump wings. The airborne jump wings look like a parachute with two wings sticking out of the sides and curving up in an arch.

"Corporal Perreault, you are hereby granted with the U.S. Army's Jump Wings," the instructor said to him.

Ryan nodded and said, "Thank you, sir."

The instructor clipped the two pins underneath the front flap of Ryan's left pocket, right under the nametape that says 'U.S. ARMY'. Once the pin went in, the instructor snapped the two clips behind the pins to clip it in place. When Ryan was in Civil Air Patrol, one of his cadet officers used to call those clips 'damnits' because every time she dropped one, she says 'damnit.'

Ryan stood there proudly knowing he graduated as one of the highest of his class in Airborne Jump School. Only a small handful of the original recruits did not make it to this graduation. To those who did pass, most of them are going on to be members of the 82nd Airborne, some will go on to become Rangers. However, only a small few will pursue the dream Ryan was going on.

3

A few days later, Ryan remained at the Fort Benning training grounds for a bus arrival. He sat on the edge of an outdoor table next to a pickup stop. He wore his ACU digital BDU's and his duffle bag at his side. The jump wings on his uniform were now dark brown, the proper kind for his uniform he is currently wearing. He recently sent his uniform to get altered for his jump school graduation. On Ryan's sleeves is a tab stitched on that said 'AIRBORNE'.

After a few hours of waiting, a large white bus arrived at the drop point. It is already half-full of other soldiers on it. The bus stopped and opened its doors. Ryan grabbed his duffle bag and ran to the bus. Upon getting on, he noticed a bunch of the soldiers on it were either big muscle-built men. Sure, Ryan was bigger than some of them, but most were larger.

Ryan slowly walked down the isle as the bus doors closed and drove off. He came to a stop next to a man who was most likely the biggest built guy on the bus. Six foot four, bald, slightly tan and looks at leased five years older than Ryan. Ryan immediately noticed the tabs on his uniform. He was pretty much all of them. The tabs, from bottom to top, said, 'MOUNTAIN', 'AIRBORNE', and 'RANGER'. The patch underneath these tabs was a rounded square with two swords overlapping each other. Ryan knew this patch as the 10th Mountain Division. However, he was surprised to see that this man's uniform not only had jump wings, but also had a badge showing a sword with two extended wings on both sides, meaning he is HALO jump qualified. Directly above that was a badge shaped like a long rectangle with a musket encased in it. Around that badge is a wreath design. Ryan checked out the man's name tape and it said 'DAVIS' and his rank had four chevrons, three upside-down V's and one U underneath, making him a Staff Sergeant. Ryan got nervous when passing this Staff Sergeant Davis who sat next to the window with an empty seat.

Suddenly, Davis looked up and noticed Ryan. Ryan tried to hold in his little fear of getting snapped at by the strongest man on the bus. Suddenly, to his surprise, Davis smiled at Ryan. He grabbed his own duffle bag off of the seat next to him and placed it on his lap, leaving a space open for Ryan.

"Want to take a seat?" Davis asked. Ryan slowly grinned and nodded. He sat down and placed his duffle bag on his own lap. "I'm Staff Sergeant Robert Davis," he said extending his hand. Ryan gladly accepted it.

"I'm Corporal Ryan Perreault," Ryan told the gentleman. They released their hands. "I can't help but noticed your insignias. You were a Ranger?"

"Still am," David said with a chuckle. "Yeah, I've had a lot of experience in the combat fields. My father was a Marine, so I grew up learning military stuff. I studied hard and worked hard all my life to get to this goal. I can't help but notice all you got is an Airborne tab."

"Yeah, I just came out of Airborne school. Unlike you, I never saw combat or have any other outside experience."

"It's scary. Coming from a guy like me, it can get scary."

"Well, I sort of know. I was an MP. I made barracks raids before, but I never actually shot at anybody."

"My buddy in Basic went on to be an MP, so yeah, he told me what it was like. But nothing compared to what we are bout to go through."

"No shit," Ryan chuckled. "Did your parents support your decision to join the Army?"

"Not at first, but I told them the benefits and they agreed to it. You?"

"Exact opposite. My parents banned me. No matter how many times I told them good things about the Army, it felt like I was talking to a brick wall. They never heard me, it's always a one-sided conversation with them. So, I told them I was going away to a computer camp after high school." Davis nodded knowing where this was going to lead to.

"But you went to Basic instead?"

"Yup. I graduated top of my class and even made Expert Marksman."

"I hope so, otherwise you wouldn't be here."

Ryan and Davis chuckled at that. It was true, every person on the bus was an Expert in marksmanship, which was one of the prerequisites.

"However, my parents were thrilled when a lot of great things happened to them just because of my enlistment. Went I told them I wanted to go down this path, they were reluctant at first. But when they found out that only 20 will pass, they decided to give it a go, probably thinking I won't make it."

"Yeah, but that just proves they don't want you hurt."

"I know, but I want to do more with my life. So, I chose this. And, hopefully, I'll be able to prove them wrong by becoming one of the 20 to pass, and I wish you the best of luck, Sergeant."

"Thanks, but call me Robert," Davis replied with a toothy grin.

The bus slowly rolled its way out of Georgia state limits and on its way to North Carolina. The entire bus trip, Ryan made new friends on the bus as well as Davis.

PRESENT DAY

Ryan, deep in the heart of Robotropolis, kept on fast walking down the streets. He kept his eyes fixed everywhere and his two hands tightly gripped on the gun. Every step he took, his long red hair waved every time he snapped his head around, looking at roofs, windows, alleys, and cover places in case anyone were to show up.

"This will be a lot easier if I had a team," Ryan said to himself.

He stops at the edge of a ruble building and stood there for a while. Slowly, he let himself sink down to rest again. His olive drab man bag dropped behind him and he let himself lean against it like a back pillow.

Ryan slowly closed his eyes and tried to remember happy memories. Well, happy memories to Ryan, but many people could disagree. He frowns knowing he is not in those places he wished he was in. He is a huge Sonic fan and he would like to meet Sonic and the gang, but he also wished he was either flying in a helicopter or running miles through the desert carrying 50 pounds on his back.

Suddenly, he heard the hover crafts of two vehicles approaching. Ryan snapped his head and saw them coming. They are moving slowly, as if they were searching for something or someone. Ryan immediately assumed he was the target they were looking for.

5

Not too far away, Sonic sped down the streets leaving a blue blur trail behind him. Trailing slowly behind him is Sonia riding at high speed on her pink motorcycle. Hovering above them is Manic zipping through on his red and white air board.

"Sonic!" Sonia shouted. "Search bots over there!"

Sonia pointed to them as they approached down the street. The three triplet hedgehogs made their way toward the bots.

6

Ryan crouched and waited patiently for the vehicles to pass. He could avoid them all together or ambush them. Before trying to make up his mind, he heard what sounded like a low-flying fighter jet approaching. Immediately, he knew what it was. Sonic has arrived. His heart raced, he was about to met Sonic the Hedgehog face-to-face in real life.

Sonic and his siblings stopped behind the two SWAT Bot vehicles.

"Hey, bolt brains! Over here!" Sonic called.

Ryan heard his voice. Slowly, Ryan peeked over and saw Sonic, Sonia, and Manic for the very first time. Well, sort of, he saw their shadowy silhouettes. In a second, the three split up and took different routes.

The two hover vehicles stopped and the doors opened. To Ryan's surprise, only four SWAT Bots exited the vehicles. He was expecting more. One of the SWAT Bots seemed to be giving orders to the other three.

"You two, circle around and head them off. You, stay here in case they double-back," one of the bots ordered.

Two of the bots got in one of the hover vehicles and drove away. The SWAT Bot that gave the orders ran off in the opposite direction. The last bot stood in the center of the road, next to the remaining vehicle, with his back turned to the hiding Ryan.

Ryan took this opportunity. He holstered his sidearm and pulled out his knife. Ryan got up and quickly ran the short distance behind the SWAT Bot. The bot heard Ryan coming and turned around. When the bot tried to aim its weapon at Ryan, he grabbed it with one hand and stabbed the bot with the other in the side. The bot short-circuited a bit right before Ryan pulled out his knife and stabbed the bot in the back of its spine. Surprisingly, the bot went offline and fell forward.

Ryan ripped out his knife and slid it back in its holster. He then pulled out his USP sidearm and slowly approached the road down to where the vehicle went.

7

The SWAT Bot leader slowly curved its way through an old ruble building. Its heat sensors were picking up large life forms in the building.

Earlier, Sonia and Manic quickly dove behind a piece of ruble to fire on any bots that approach. Unbeknownst to them, the SWAT Bot was slowly approaching them from behind.

8

Down the street, Sonic zipped to a stop in the middle of the street in front of the oncoming SWAT Bot vehicle.

"Yo, bolts for brains! I'm over here!" Sonic called out in his cocky attitude.

The SWAT Bot vehicle quickly aimed for Sonic and started speeding down the street. Sonic just stood there, yawning, and tapping his foot. Unaware to him, Ryan was approaching the street from the left side. He had his gun ready for the incoming vehicle. He figured Sonic might be able to take care of it, but what if he caused the vehicle to go out of control and then end up hitting him.

Suddenly, Sonic's eye caught Ryan's fluffy red hair. His full attention was now on Ryan. Sonic saw Ryan Perreault for the first time.

"Huh?!" Sonic grunted. Ryan looked over and, for the first time ever, saw Sonic the Hedgehog. At the same time, he heard the hover vehicle approaching. Ryan was the first to notice it. Sonic was still focused on Ryan for a second, thus Sonic would get hit. Ryan could not take that chance, so he took action.

"Get back!" Ryan shouted. Almost instinctively, Sonic noticed the approaching vehicle and dove out of the way, knowing he was too late to perform a Sonic attack on it. Sonic jumped and rolled away.

As soon as Sonic was out of the street, Ryan ran in the middle of the street in Sonic's place and fired a burst of rounds at the approaching hovercraft.

The bullets impacted through the glass and destroyed the SWAT Bot driving the craft. Ryan quickly stepped out of the way as the vehicle skidded off the road and crashed hard into a building.

9

Sonia and Manic, still hiding behind the ruble in the abandoned run-down building, looked at each other confusingly. They heard crashed and laser blasts before, but they never imagined they would hear the sounds of gunfire in Robotropolis. Sure, they heard the sounds before, but not in this case.

"Was that gunfire?" Sonia asked.

"Beats me," Manic replied.

10

Just as Sonic was about to zip to it, he saw Ryan cautiously approach it with his gun raised. He pied the corner and saw that the driver SWAT Bot was dead as well as the passenger. Three down, one to go. First, Ryan turned and approached Sonic, still with his gun raised.

"Hands up! Let me see your hands!" Ryan shouted.

Sonic could have fought back, but he knew Ryan was not going to try to hurt him, he was just careful. Slowly, Sonic raised his arms in the air and faced Sonic.

"Are you that man Robotnik caught? Ryan Perreault?" Sonic asked.

"I'm not going to answer that," Ryan told Sonic. He could not be sure if Sonic was bugged or not. Sonic was not, but Ryan had to be sure. "First, lead me to your siblings."

"I will, but first, can you lower your weapon, man? I'm not going to hurt you," Sonic said with a slight sweet tone. Ryan nodded and lowered his weapon to the low-ready position. "My sibs are over here."

Sonic ran, not at super-sonic speed, toward the run-down building. Ryan followed.

11

Sonia and Manic stayed hidden in the abandoned building waiting to ambush a SWAT Bot. Little did they know was that the lead SWAT Bot was approaching them from behind. The bots had orders to capture the hedgehogs alive to be robotosized. This meant he had to shoot a stun pulse on them, grab them, and rocket away toward the main hall building to prevent grip escapes or rescues.

Just as the SWAT Bot aimed its weapon at the unknown Sonia and Manic, two gunshot bursts echoes the building from behind the SWAT Bot.

Instantly, Sonia and Manic snapped their heads and saw the SWAT Bot. At the same time, they saw Ryan with his gun raised at the bot, which was losing balance. Soon, the bot fell with a loud clank to the ground. The building was silent. Sonia and Manic stared up at the tall five foot ten man with his Army camouflage pants, black T-shirt, an olive drab man bag, and a Heckler and Koch USP sidearm in his hands. Standing next to him was Sonic.

Slowly, Sonia and Manic got out from behind the ruble and approached Ryan. Ryan, after being sure none of them were imposters, holstered his gun and smiled at them. He was in a state of mental shock that he was meeting Sonic, Sonia, and Manic for the first time in real life. He kept his posture and face, but inside he could not believe he was in direct contact with the famous blue hedgehog himself, completely created by the mind of a Japanese man, Yuji Naka, in 1991.

"Nice shooting," Sonic said.

"Thanks," Ryan said. "I'll answer your question now. Yes, I'm Ryan Perreault. And you are Sonic, Sonia, and Manic."

"Whoa, dude, you know our names?" Manic asked. Ryan responded with a nod.

"Well, who doesn't know you guys?" Ryan told them, not really a question.

"I can understand a Mobian, but you're from Earth, are you?" Sonia said.

"Well, this might be hard to explain but I'll try," Ryan said. He took in a deep breath and tried to explain to them about his world and their cartoon. "On my planet, Earth, there is an animated television series called 'Sonic Underground' and you three star in it. Most of your adventures are on that show, like when you three broke into Robotnik's fortress to get the royal hedgehog book so you can get to Egypt and meet your ancestor," Ryan said, "I am one of your fans."

"You know about that?" Sonia asked.

"And you're a fan of us?" Manic asked.

"Yup, me and over 10 million people on Earth. I know a lot about you three. I know about your mother Queen Aleena, the Oracle of Delphius who gave the prophecy, Robotnik, Sleet, Dingo, your friends Cyrus and Trevor, Robotropolis which was once Mobotropolis, Sanctuary, the robotosizer, everything. I even know about your rock 'n roll band! Nice songs, guys."

"Well, thanks," Manic said.

"Ryan, can you tell us a little bit about yourself?" Sonia asked.

"Sure, but I need to rest. I had a very hard day," Ryan said.

"Sure, just try not to let go," Sonic said as he grabbed Ryan's wrist. Instantly, the four ran, drove and boarded away with Ryan in tow.

FOUR YEARS AGO

Ryan Perreault finally reached his destination. A week ago, he made several friends on a bus, men like Davis, and was dropped off at a classified Army base in North Carolina, home to the American Army's best soldiers. He has been there for a week and all Ryan was taught was stuff he would have learned in Ranger School if he were to have attended it. Luckily, some of the recruits with him were Rangers, so they helped him out. Ryan was taught how to tie knots, make knives out of metal and rock, build fires, make traps, track for animals or humans, and to even cover up any trace of him passing.

One of his favorite days in training was weapons assembly. He was being taught how to assemble weapons. All his life, Ryan loved guns. While Ryan was in high school, he learned a lot about how guns were assembled and how they worked via the Internet. He even grew up with some friends with a military background, and they taught him some stuff about shooting. As soon as Ryan entered the fourth week of Basic Training, which was the rifle range course, he aced all the tests easily and was one of the few to receive the Expert Marksmanship Badge.

Today in modern warfare technology, the Colt M4 is the primary assault rifle made to replace the aging M16. The M4 is smaller, lighter, and more compact, has an adjustable butt stock, removable iron sight handle, and has picatinny rail lines to add attachments.

One of the only reasons Ryan signed up for re-enlistment after his first term was to hope to be a weapons expert. Ryan knew a gun inside and out no matter what kind anyone would throw at him. He can explain every detail while taking it apart and explain its function.

He spent 30 days learning basic and advanced survival skills. Next will be the ultimate test he will ever be faced with. This next test will determine if he is capable of the career path he wants.
