Chapter 8 - First day & New friends

"Attention" In a plan field a man wearing a neat military uniform shouted at a row of new recruits.

"My Name is Sergeant James Buchanan Barnes,Not Mr Barnes nor sir Barnes, but Sergeant Barnes is that understood maggots?" when he got no response he increased the octvals in his voice.

"I said is that understood!"

The recruits while shaking in their bridges responded enthusiastically

"Yes Sergeant Barnes!"

Seeing the fear in the Recruits eyes Sergeant Barnes was pleased. That was until a new voice entered the conversation.

"Breaking in the new recruits Are you Bucky?" a man so skinny you would be shocked at how he even made it into the army.

"Steve you know that these kids have to fear someone otherwise those spoiled rich kids will make our lives a living hell." Sergeant Barnes responded with a gruff.

"This Children is Captain Steve Roger's, he will handle grace training for you as he is the only natural we have, while I will be the one to whip your bodies into shape, and I promise I will enjoy it" he finished with a predetory smile.

"Welcome to the Howlling Commandos!"

Leon's POV

Well after our trip to the capital it was later decided we were to go to a 5 year training camp ran by the army-unit stationed nearest to our lsland.

And let me tell you when l heard military island I expected small island covered in barracks, but damn this is three times our own and there was a town bigger than the town on our own island,

Though it did have a military feel to it, it was way beyond what I expecting.

Lex's POV

Here we are, our first day of training and I am already dreading the next five years here, Sergeant Barnes is scary but at least Capitain Rogers doesn't seem that bad.

From left to right state your names and only your names

"1"

"2"

"3"

"4"

"Leon fou Bartfort"

"Lex fou Bartfort"

"Raymond Fou Arkin"

"Daniel Fou Durand"

"Okay Follow Lueitenent 1, he will help take your starting staslts. " Sergeant Barnes said dismissing us (I'm too lazy to think of a name for a character whose not coming back)

Following L1 we were led to what seemed to be a gym.

"Recruits in here we will push your limits in finding out your starting line and in your five years here we will help you get as close as possible to what your body considers to be it's finish line it's all up to you how far get from there."

And then began a whole day of gruilling exercise.

Sergeant Barnes POV

" So Steve how does the recruits paperwork look like" I said as we stepped into his office.

"Well Buck, the first four are a bust, while they are naturals their grade is E meaning the most they can do is Rank D, and they are rank F right now the lowest possible level,

The final two Are good

Daniel Fou Durland:

Grace: Earth

Grade:A

Rank : E

Raymond Fou Arkin

Grace: Water

Grade: A

Rank: E

The twins thats where I have a bad felling

The oldest has Storm while the youngest has Eclipse,

What they do, I don't know.

But their Grades that was left out of the report. "he said looking over the new recruits reports.

" You Don't think they are Grade S or Ex do you, "l asked with a laugh

" He might as well be a mythical for all I care, our only job is to instill military edicate into our recruits, just like at apprentice Camp

What I don't like is that Mylene is now hiding something from me, even after having me move from the Fanos, fully knowing that I'm the only one capable of holding back Vandal Savage. " he said with clear anger in his voice

" I think Mylene and I need to have a conversation" the way he said that sent a shiver down my spine.

"and I think I will take the Earth kid as my student for the duration of his stay, cause my grace is an offshoot of The Earth branch."

Ohh that poor kid is in for a rough time.

LEON POV

Well today was a bitch,

Because while I'm no stranger to hard training today was rough,

We were expected to give a 150% effort today and then more,and they say it's only gonna get harder from here on out,

We were led to a minimalistic room where there were only 2 bunk beds and 4 small study tables,

We were split into two groups numbers one through 4 had their own while we had our own.,which is what led to this,

Lex standing proudly before us said

"Members of room.... ugh..... " having seemed to forget the rooms number he ran back to the door to take a peek.

"Room 619 my name Lex fou bartfort and before we get situated I have something important to say," holding his words as to increase the tension

"l call top bunk" and with that he destroyed all the tension he created.

"And if you have anything to say about it, we are all men here so we will decided like man!"

Raymond or I think it's Raymond, stood up and slowly approached Lex.

'this kind of looks like a Mexican Standoff'

Pulling their hands back to their hip, as if trying to pull out a Kamehameha

" "Rock..... Paper.... Scissors..... Go" "

Yes it seems that that's how men solve disagreements now

'who would have thought'

After ten or so games which resulted in draws Lex finally won, and it seems that they are now bonding.

" I like you kid" he said offering his hand for a handshake but all I could think was

'your the same age' but who am I to destroy someone's moment.

"Lex fou Bartfort" to which he got a simple

"Raymond fou Arkin"

"I can tell you and me are gonna be the best of friends" but then a third voice entered the conversation.

"Daniel fou Durand" then I was the only one who had yet to introduce themselves, but before I could, that smug bastad had to land a blow of his, own,

"This lifeless shell of a body is my brother Leon fou Bartfort, and before you ask he is the older one." he introduced me while hanging on me.

"Hey! Don't do that I'm already tired enough I just wanna sleep" I lashed out.

Planning to take a nice long nap someone's hand grabbed my shoulder, looking back Leon was now waving his finger in my face.

"Leon if you want a bed you have to earn it" making a fake surprised face he asked.

"Were you planning to break this time honored tradition" in mock disappointment

'Time honored my ass you just made it up'

Well I did the stupid tradition and surprise I lost.

"You you two look exactly alike so how do we tell you apart.?" Raymond asked,

I looked at Leon with a look that screened 'ooh no he didn't?'

He looked back which screamed

'ohh yes he did'

"" how can you compare my dashing good looks to the likes of this dumbass"" we both cried out in indignation

To which they gave us looks which screamed 'are you really serious' .

And with that our first day on camp was over.
