Chapter 3-First Day

A bright light filled the boy's eyes as the familiar sound of Dr.Trey on the speaker filled his ears once again as he awoke. "Good you're up, Today you will be leaving these chambers and meeting the man in charge of everything. So you had better behave." Dr.Trey commanded staring down as the boy only nodded in response to this getting up and waiting for the doctor to come down and unlock the door so they may go meet with whoever the doctor was talking about. Soon the sound of clicking at the door could be heard before the door was opened revealing Dr.Trey on the other side as the boy walked over stepping out of the room. He had only been allowed out of the room when it was necessary so he had not been out of the room very often, as they walked down extensive hallways with the only thing making a difference in each hallway was the position of the camera's and the occasional scientist walking along the hall on an errand for something or some other things. Eventually they arrived outside of the building as the boy's eyes widened in shock staring at the scenery, with bright green grass that had been recently watered, tree's that stood taller than any man, as well as a bright blue sky. It was all so much for the boy to take in that he couldn't help but stand there and stare in shock and childlike wonder as he examined the surroundings with the first smile in a long time actually appearing on his face. He was rendered speechless and didn't move even a step as he took it all in until a voice broke him out of his trance "Hey! Come on we don't have any time to waste." Dr.Trey stated grabbing the boy by his arm and dragging him along as he was broken out of his trance beginning to follow the doctor once again. As they approached a large vehicle that could be identified as a Jeep a man in a uniform stepped out and opened the back door to the for the two to enter through. "Good evening Dr.Trey." The man said with a salute as he held the door opening "Good evening soldier." Dr.Trey said in response as he stepped inside of the vehicle with the boy not far behind him also stepping inside and taking a seat. The soldier then shut the door behind them before stepping into the drivers seat and began to drive them along towards their destination. From time to time the boy couldn't help but take glances out of the window looking at everything around them taking in the scenery but was always snapped at by the doctor "Hey eyes forward!" The doctor commanded as the boy quickly went back to looking ahead patiently waiting for them to arrive at their destination. The drive to an hour or two but eventually they arrived at a large space surrounded a steel fence with barbed wire at the top and was filled with many tents of different sizes. They were stopped at the entrance by a few men wearing similar outfits to the man driving them. It took a minute or two but they were finally allowed entry as they continued to drive through the camping grounds for these people. After a few minutes of relatively slow driving they closed in on a rather large tent that looked much better than the other tents that were there "Alright sir we are here." The man said stopping the car before stepping out and opening the door so that they could step out as the boy went back to following the doctor as they entered the large tent. Ahead sitting at a large wooden desk was a rather well built man

"Ah Dr.Trey how nice to see you, what brings you here?" The man asked looking at the two with a commanding gaze as the doctor nodded "I have come to present to you the results of our work!" He said referring to the boy before continuing to talk "He is the ultimate soldier unparalleled by any of our current technology." He said as the man examined the boy taking notice of his slender build, pale skin, and a light blue shirt that was way too big being the only thing he wore "I'll be the one to determine that. Kid I am the boss of this whole operation, you wanna do something to help then do everything I say." The man said before looking at the doctor "You are dismissed doctor." He said as Dr.Trey started to protest "But General I-" he began but was cut off by the large man "I said you are dismissed." He commanded as hesitantly the doctor left leaving you with the large man "Hear go change into these." He said handing the boy a uniform and pointing to a spot where he could change. The boy walked over to the area and changed into the uniform before returning without a word as he was wearing the same uniform as some of the other people that were there with the symbol of 'private' on his shoulder "It suits you kid. Now then..." He started going over to a microphone as his voice ran through the entire place "Lieutenant Cross, report to the general." He commanded through the mic as soon the sound of the front opening then closing could be heard

"Lieutenant Cross reporting." She stated saluting the general as he returned the salute before beginning to speak "You will be showing our new recruit around the camp as well as make sure he is introduced to his team." He commanded as she nods "Understood, sir!" She said as the general looked down at the boy "Follow her she will show you around." He informed with a small smile. The boy nodded and turned to face the lady following close behind as she stepped out "So you're the new recruit huh? Apparently your supposed to be like...some kind of super soldier or something from what I have heard." She said glancing back at the boy as he didn't say a word only making the tense feeling in the air worse "Don't worry you can talk to me. I won't say anything." She said attempting to give a comforting smile as hesitantly the boy spoke "Apologies for correcting you but I am a robot built to be a super soldier." He said causing Cross to raise an eyebrow "You weren't exactly correcting me just specifying. But whatever makes you comfortable kid." She said with a small shrug continuing to walk "So you got a name?" She asked curiously "I was given the name #1." He stated causing a bit more curiosity to spark in her mind but she kept herself from saying anything more about it "Alright then I'll just call you One." She said as the boy only nodded in response causing her to sigh a bit "So for now the most important places for you is the training area where you and the other privates will undergo training until you reach the minimum scores necessary to move on." She said showing off the training section which didn't seem very impressive  compared to what he was put through back in the testing facility. "Alright I'll let you do some roaming around if you'd like, if you need anything just give me a call." She said with a smile as the boy raised an eyebrow "How?" He asked  as she looked at him "You have a phone?" She asked as the boy simply shook his head no as she sighed before handing him a phone with her number on it "Here take this, you can use it." She said with a small smile before she left without telling him how to use it "Well this is going to be a little confusing." The boy said before beginning to walk around finding it a little weird to walk in clothes that weren't similar to hospital clothes. They felt more sturdy and tough than the clothes he was used to, it was almost like night and day with how different they were and the boy found that a bit interesting. As the boy walked around he began to form an internal map of how the camp looked from a birds eye view so he could learn where exactly everything was. That is until he was stopped by another one of the soldiers who didn't look to be in a very good mood "So I heard you're the bucket of bolts that's gonna be joining our ranks." He said as the boy looked up at him and simply gave a nod in response. This made the man more irritated "What think you're too good to actually speak to me?" He growled picking the boy up by his shirt as the boy stayed silent "Well listen here, I don't quite like disrespectful little snots like yourself, So why not teach you a lesson!" He said lifting his fist to throw a punch before it was grabbed by a rather large man behind him "I would prefer that you didn't pick fights with the new kid." He said staring down intimidatingly as the first man scoffed angrily before letting go of the boy and walking away "You'll pay for this." He mumbled as he walked away. "Sorry about that, he's always been a bit of a loose cannon." The man said as the boy nodded "Oh I almost forgot my name is Kristopher, but you can just call me Kris."

"I am actually one of your new teammates, nice to meet you. What's your name?" Kris asked looking down at the boy "Well it's #1." The boy said as Kris nodded "Alright well nice to meet you number one. Here if you'd like I can take you with me to where you'll be staying." He said as the boy nodded "Yes I would like that." The boy said with a small smile as the man began leading him towards where the rest of their team is staying. Soon they approached a rather nicely sized tent where people inside could be heard talking "This is where you'll be staying during your time here, the rest of the team is inside too." He said as he opened the front of the tent letting the boy in who proceeded to examine the inside of the tent and how surprisingly roomy it was. As he did so Kris looked ahead "Hey everyone the new recruit is here!" He called as slowly a few more people came out revealing themselves "This is our sniper Cassandra but we call her Cassie." Kris said as Cassandra spoke up "Against my wishes."

"It's a pleasure to meet you Ms.Cassandra." The boy said with a small bow as she nodded "You too." She said simply "Oh me next!" Cheered the girl next to her and before anyone could protest spoke "My name is Cindy, it's wonderful to meet our new recruit!" She cheered happily

The boy nodded in response "It's a pleasure to meet you as well Ms.Cindy." The boy said once again giving a small bow "After that is the brains behind our operations. This is Duo." Kris said.

Duo gave a small smile extending his hand for a handshake "Good to meet ya kid." He said as the boy accepted the handshake, "Now that we have you we are finally a full team of five and can go on missions now!" Cindy said smiling happily with a hint of excitement in her voice as Kris chuckled, "Yes, yes we can." He said before Duo spoke up "Why don't we take today to throw a welcome party for the newbie?" He suggested as the rest nodded "Alright then, let's party!"
