Joy spoke,"Have you lost your mind?"
The boy spoke,"Someone or something is in the tunnels with us! I can feel the killing intent so
strongly here! Some black presence is all over us and it plans to murder us both!"
Kill Joy spoke,"What are you talking about?"
The boy spoke,"I can see the intent of others from time to time and this thing wants us dead!
Just trust me until we can find out what is going on!"
The boy spoke,"We have to fight on until the Lord gives us something better. That is all we can hope to do for now. The closer we get to Him, the closer then He will get to us. Also, we can't out give God."
Kill Joy spoke,"I hope that you are right.

Joy and the Boy were knee deep inside a huge Ibor underground tunnel system. They were in front of a metal door leading to God only knows where.
The boy felt felt a strong sense of blood lust that was near the two of them.
"I feel that something dangerous is at foot near us. Don't drop your guard here or we will be
dog food."
The medic spoke,"I do not get it, but I will do as you request. You were always the better when it came to battle sense."
At the same moment in time, the being that was watching came out from behind the duo.
The boy yelled out,"Quit fooling around! I know you that you here, and I know that you know who we are!"
The voice spoke,"I am impressed that you knew that I was here, you have gotten better since our last fight. Do not forget that I had gotten much better as well. I was hoping to avenge my loss, but that is something for another day."
Kill Joy spoke,"What is going on?"
The boy spoke,"You had not forgotten our first deployment under Hagotti?"
Kill Joy spoke,"It is Pete!"
Pete spoke,"Bingo! The boy has won the prize! I hope that you are a better medic than you are as a combatant. You are so piss poor as a warrior!"
Kill joy spoke,"I hope that you gotten some artificial teeth to go with that lying tongue!"
The boy spoke,"Enough with the chit chat, we have a battle to fight! Let us find out what inside the room."
Pete knocked on the door three times and the door was unlocked.
Pete opened the door and said,"Ladies first!"
The boy smiled under his mask as he said,"No age before beauty!"
Pete went in first and then the other two.
A huge arm grabbed the door handle and slammed the door behind them.
Inside the room, were the rest of the big four standing solemnly in what looked to be some sort of control room. Big was near the door, Bob was at the farthest wall facing the door, and Billy has smacking on a large circle floor computer, that was towering from the floor up to the ceiling.
Pete spoke,"We can't make heads or tails of the junk inside. Feel free to tinker with as you please."
Kill Joy spoke,"Thanks for your permission."
Pete spoke,"You are kindly welcomed!"
The boy spoke,"If you four were not men I would kiss you!"
The big four looked at the boy like he had a turd hanging out of his mouth.
The boy spoke," We are trying to find any Ibor technology and try to make sense of it. We are looting this land of any tech that we can find."
Kill Joy spoke,"We were given secondary objectives, to go along with the battle at hand."
Big spoke,"We had no knowledge of this, what is the deal here?"
The boy spoke,"You had no top secret clearance and we have some level of top secret status."
Pete spoke,"Guys, the military is compartmentalized beyond paranoia. We all know that to be true!"
The rest of the men seem pleased with the answer.
The boy spoke,"You all will be rewarded for your find because we will see to that General
Hagotti is notified of your all's find here today."
Big spoke,"We want no reward for our troubles, but we just want to be free of our draft."
The boy spoke,"We were taken by force as well, since we were taken since we were twelve years olds to learn how to become Urano officers."
Billy spoke,"Dang, we thought we had it bad but you all must had it worse than us."
Kill Joy spoke,"I am the son of doctors, we had the luxury of not being taken by force but I
went willing to avoid any trouble for my family."
The boy spoke, "I was the only son of a minster couple, but they broke into the house and took
me anyway. I killed two of the soldiers in the process, before I eventually captured."
Bob spoke,"You had as much a screwed up life as we did."
Pete spoke,"Wow two consecutive kills at twelve years old. What a killer!"
The boy spoke,"It is not whose life was the most messed up but we are put together by God to help do whatever task that he had called us to do."
Big spoke,"You are right, we have a job to do so let's do it!
Billy spoke,"What is that?"
Kill Joy spoke,"Guard the area as we try to hack the machines here!"
Pete spoke,"This mission of yours is not helping us to go home to our families. We are just bettering the same military that forced us into this mess."
Mr Big spoke,"Pete, I know that you and Bob are missing what little family that you had struggled to keep but this is bigger than all of us. There was a reason for why I allowed us to be recaptured."
