Chapter Five - Getting Ready
When I stepped inside the hut with Sabrina; K-unit were all ready stood in front of the class, waiting for us. Sabrina sat down in the back of the room while I walked to the front and gave a nod to Wolf.
"You will all go through a series of tests and out of your results, you are going to be put into different teams. Any question?" Wolf said
"What do we start with, Sir?" One of the quite girls from my class
"It will be different for everyone because we will split you up in 4 groups" Wolf said before reading out the groups just randomly put together
"Mine group follow me" Fox screamed out before leading his group out for their first test which was tactics
"Kiddos let's go" Eagle said before taking his group out for the Physical test
"Well, let's go then" Snake said to his group before leading them to the field medicine test
The Leadership test
"So, you sorry excuses of adults will start with a leadership test with me before moving" Wolf said before placing the ten people at different spaces and then giving them a paper full of questions to answer. During the half hour my classmates got on the test, I could see various degrees of confusion, but some looked like they easily understood the question and hopefully the answers.
Since I wanted to know what kind of question they got I took a look at one of the test and it had questions like; If you are in a extremely dangerous situation and a team mate is injured, what would you do?
After they had handed in their tests to Wolf I took the group to their next test.
Field medicine test
When the group arrived at the field medicine tent they were assigned different injury's they was supposed to write down how to treat with the limited supplies they had. I saw some questionable method's of treatment, but surprisingly some of them did well on the test.
Stealth and Logic test
When we got to the stealth and logic test that Fox had set up, I not surprised when they first got a paper with question about logic and stealth before they was tested on the practical part of the test. Some did well and some should never ever think about having a career within espionage
The physical test, running
"Okay, kiddos gather around so Cub can explain what you are supposed to do" Eagle screamed from the beginning of the assault course and my classmates plus Sabrina made a circle around us
"The physical test have three parts to it; the assault course, swimming and running. Any question?" I said
"What are we going to start with, Sir?" A girl that just started in my class asked
"You will begin with the Running and then progress through swimming and the assault course in that order" I said a bit bored
"What distance are we going to run, Sir?" Tom asked
"You will run five 100m sprints and then 5km" Eagle said before he got them going to an area marked for sprinting.
I stood at the end with a paper and a stopwatch while Eagle stood on the other end and started the kids. Some of my classmates acutely manage to get an acceptable time but that was before they went running the last 5km, most of the ones that did well on the sprinting test did poorly on the stamina test.
Swimming
When they was finished with running we gave them ten minutes to relax before they was going to start the swimming test. I spent the time talking with Sabrina. I walked up behind her and put my arms around her.
"How are you doing?" I asked her
"Good, I hope" She said while smiling
"I'm sure you are doing well" I said and leaned down for a kiss, but Sabrina laugh and moved her head so that I instead kissed her cheek
"Not here, Alex. You classmates are watching us" She laugh at me while I pouted, but more wasn't it time for since she had to prepare for the swimming test. So we run a bit around trying to get some warm into Sabrina's arching muscles before they was going to start swimming.
When the whistle around Eagle neck began blowing, Sabrina and my classmate began their one km long swimming test and after a while we could see some heads making steady progress towards us. When they was a bit closer you could see Sabrina in the front followed by some of my more sporty classmates.
When Sabrina got on land I put a blanket around her and lead her to the changing hut to get ready for the next and last test
The assault course
"What time are we expected to run at in the assault course, Sir?" A boy that played on the football team back home and should be in good physical condition
"Well, Cub here run the assault course three years ago on a time around 17 minutes so you should be faster than that" Eagle answered before making them start one by one and when finally everyone was out I turned to him.
"How has the other groups done?" I asked
"Some good and some bad, Sir" Eagle said while looking at the first of my classmates taking on the first obstacle, a 10 foot high wall with only ropes to held onto
When my stopwatch began nearing 16 minutes the first person took on the last obstacle and again it was Sabrina. I moved towards her and finally got my kiss before she started running down while the rest of my classmates made their way to the finish line.
10 minutes later everyone was finished; I took Sabrina under my arms and started walking towards our hut.
