Chapter 4 - Alexander's past prt 3

Lots of soldiers gathered at the HQ room for a public meeting to soldiers. The room is big enough to store 200 people.

Protecting soldiers also stood at the corners of the room, dressed in the soldiers uniform, "green with yellow patterns" and holding their guns firmly in both hands and only looking straight.

Alexander relaxed his hands on his thighs, looking around to everyone. Some other soldiers also talked to each other, even though that was their first time of meeting each other.

All the soldiers stood before a raised stage. An unknown Commander walked to stage from backstage, followed by two armed soldiers. The commander told them to stop behind him as he walked forward to give a speech.

"I am commander Li, from R.T.F elite military in Konga. I come here for a purpose today. I strongly have the believe that, all soldiers know why they are here...

Frank got close to Alexander and asked, "what kind of question is that?". Alexander replied looking on stage,"listen to what he is saying".

"Soldiers here are just at the Junior level, you have to apply lot of effort to achieve your goal. Well trained soldiers who can pass the final year test in the Junior military, will be welcomed to the R.T.F elite military.

As we all know, an asteroid fell from space to Earth, killed and annihilated countless lifes and properties some years ago. With the help the introducing of technology into this world by scientist helped to reduce the the loss in the world. With technology, our brilliant scientists invented machines and generated energy from waters, mountains, and the life force in natural things, such as trees, to help in rebuilding this world again. Everything went on smooth and peaceful for 5 decades, and another asteroid fell on Earth. This time, the location of the asteroid became unknown to our scientist, because of insufficient technology machines.

Our mad genius scientist, Alexmond spent a whole month on just solving for possible location where the asteroid fell, looking up with the "out seeing machine" which sees outside Earth if activated.

Alexmond found out where the asteroid had fallen and led an army of 500 soldiers and 40 scientists to the place. And to their surprise, only the mark left by the fallen asteroid on the ground was seen. Eliens existed some months later and started to annihilate humans.

Nobody knows, not even the scientists either know if the asteroid was caused by something to fall, a or it just fell.

The world is facing an unbearable pain. The affright in our sisters and brothers is increasing daily.

The scientists' era had passed, though they are the ones who makes guns, bombs, fighting jets, laser guns and other fighting equipments for us, but this is not their era, this is our era, military power. And we must say to ourselves, we can make it. Though countless soldiers died in the battle between humanity and Eliens, but together, we can make it.

We've not heard a message from the eliens for the past three years, this means, they are preparing something big.

But we shouldn't be scarred, should we?. We are called soldiers, and a soldier is always prepared and ready to face the unfaceable.

The R.T.F military will need a hundred soldiers this year, it's a random call, from the 88 Junior military across the world. A time will come you and I will sit in a big sofa relaxed, and feel free from the haunting of eliens in your nightmares, if we stand up to the challenge to sweep off eliens from this world. I'm looking up to a better future, Thank you!" Commander Li salutes and all the other soldiers too salute. Hands of applauds were given to commander Li as he left the stage with his two soldiers.

Alexander stood pondering questions and answers in his mind as other soldiers dispersed.

"What are you thinking about" John from nowhere came to Alexander and asked. Alexander was deeply absorbed by his questions and answers. "Hey!" John called out.

With a quick turn to John, Alexander asked, "can you lead me to the research room?". "Oh, yeah, when you get out from this room, go left, after 49 footsteps, go right, it's right.....

"I asked you to lead the way" Alexander interrupted. "The way?. Okay".

John and Alexander got out from the HQ meeting room to the research room. "After what ever you're doing, and don't remember the way back, remember, if you get out, go left....."

John said as he left the research room, leaving only Alexander there.

Alexander researched about the asteroid that fell on Earth, emanating eliens to exist on Earth. He came to know, that asteroid fell on Earth just a eight years ago, and the increase of the eleins in number, but humans have tried their outmost to kill the eliens.

Alexander researched if their hideous are known. The answer was "No. They attack from anywhere at anytime". He remembered what Commander Li said, "we've not heard from the eleins for the past three years". Alexander was confused now, supporting his right chin with his right hand.

Mrs Abigail cane from behind. " You're here?" She asked. "It's you?" Alexander asked turning to Ms Abigail.

"Yeah, it's me. What are you doing here?", "Just a research".

"About what?". Alexander did not answer the question, he tried to turn away just that moment. "You're my student"

"Yeah, I know". "Just because I told you to take me as your friend and not your teacher, you're disrespecting me?",

"No am not" Alexander said. "I just, I just, want to know about the asteroid that fell on Earth and about the eliens" Alexander added.

"You're not even a graded soldier yet, what's the rush" mas Abigail asked. "It's just curiosity, not grading".

"Oh, okay, I will take my leave now".

"Madam please, can you teach me about the grading in the military system?"
