The next day cub was released from the infirmary by a very annoyed doctor and made his way back to k units hut. He was told to 'go easy' for the next few days.
He was also given some medication for his billet sound and some scars. Not that he would be taking them. Oh how he hated drugs. Over the past year, Alex had developed some major reactions to drugs and the effects are unpleasant, to day the least. The
simplest way to describe it would be that the drugs play around with his brain a bit.
He was jarred out of his thought by coming face to face the door.
How the hell did I get here so fast? He thought.
He opened the door and was met with 3 shocked soldiers. Seriously, this was getting boring, whenever they saw him, they were shocked.
"What in the world cub?" Snake shouted "you were supposed to wait for bus to come and get you."
Alex smirked inwardly "I appreciate your concern and I understand that I am a very important person, but I do not need 3 body guards to escort me from one place to another"
I thinks it's safe to say that the 3 soldiers practically fell of their beds from shock.
Seeing it wise, Alex decided to change the subject "so did I miss anything important while trapped in the hospital"
Eagle couldn't resist the urge to talk "yeah, x-unit came back from leave after their mission in Australia"
Alex mentally froze, his luck wasn't that bad was it? There could have been many other units.
"Oh yeah?"
"Yeah," eagle couldn't resist the urge to tell a story " it was a strange mission. The first thing they did was rescue a teenager from a space module that had landed in the middle of the Pacific Ocean"
Alex's stomach dropped, his luck really was that bad "seriously?"
"Yeah I know, it crazy man. But you could go and ask them yourself, we have dinner now"
Dread settled over Alex
"I'm really not that hungry"
"Sure you are cub, you just came out of hospital, everybody has a huge appetite after hospital"
Alex couldn't help but agree "no seriously I'm not hungry"
"Cub"snake warned "you just came out of the infirmary and we are restarting training. You have to eat"
Alex realised that his attempts were futile
"Fine" he sighed
K-unit made their way to the hall and Alex was glad that x-unit were not their. Maybe he wouldn't run into them.
He should have known that his luck would not hold out.
When x-unit entered, eagle called them over
"Hey guys"
X unit sat down next to k unit and Alex tried his best to hide in the shadows, training at scorpia helped sometimes.
"So" wasp began "is cub out of the infirmary yet"
Snake look confused "yeah his is and he is sitting right here, he turned and was faced with a teenager concealed by the shadows
"Cub what is wrong with you" snake said exasperated, "can't you do anything normal for once"
Cub turned to glare at snake but realised his mistake after the sharp intakes of breath.
"No way." Tiger managed "No god damn way. Wasp can you believe this its him"
Wasp just shook his head and carried on staring. How was this even possible?
The mess hall suddenly became very silent.
"Who's him?" Wolf asked, though he began to have some sort of idea.
"It's the kid we saved from the space module." Wasp said barely believing it.
(The next part has been cut out due to incoherent and inappropriate language but it is safe to say that all hades broke loose and cub was attacked with questions)
Finally wolf managed to regain some self worth. "EVERYBODY SHUT IT"
Silence.
Wolf then turned to cub. "Cub would you please explain to us what you were doing in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, in a DAMN SPACE MODULE" his anger breaking at the last words
"Yes" cub answered
"Yes what?"
"Yes I do mind"
"Cub" wolf warned
"Wolf" Cub mocked
"JUST TELL US THE GOD DAMN REASON"
"No"
"Why not?"
"Because"
"Because what?"
"Because it is none of your business and I would really appreciate if you took your extra large nose out of my business"
With that Alex stood up, dumped his tray and walked out.
Silence.
"Well that went well" eagle broke the silence.
20 soldiers turned to glare at him.
The sergeant walked in.
"WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU. GET YOUR SELVES OUT OF HERE AND GO DO SOME TRAINING"
The soldiers jumped to attention and practically run out.
