Story of my life (Book 2 to dog tags and deadly secrets)

Code name and Training

I shot up. "Not so fast, Rodgers. I need to tell you some stuff first." I sat down. Gunny pulled out a military computer. On the screen was the X Force emblem over a black eagle. "We, the x force work secretly for the government. But like all heroes, we have foes. Not like all heroes though, these foes want to take over world nuclear warfare, and weapons. They call them selves, Viper.(Like cobra, in GI Joe.) They are highly dangerous. and will kill without a thought." At that I shivered. Gunny continued. "Their leader is a maniac named Viper Commander. His most experienced soldier, is a girl of 17, named Kylee Standoff. she is a deadly little chick, with a love for grenades, and knives.

Firefly, A criminal, who was in the marines. Loves to use the sniper's rifle." I looked up. "Is that all?" The sergeant shook his head. "they have a bunch of trained squadron. heavily armed." I nodded. "Your going to need a code name." Gunny said."how about,....Falcon." I grinned. "sounds good sir." Gunny got a twinkle in his eye. "Now you meet your team." He led me to a large space, where there were was a wall for shooting practice, work out equipment, and a wall and tables full of weapons.

I grinned. This was my kind of place. There were people already there,training. Gunny led me to four people. 3 guys and a girl. they turned to us. " Alex, this is Tony,code named virus. Jessica,Code named eagle eye. Will code named hulk. and duke code named Cruncher." I shook their hands. "good to have you." Will said. "thanks." I replied. "What's your code name?" Tony asked. "Falcon." They looked at each other.

"Lets see what you got." Duke said. I had to admit,Duke was good looking, with sandy brown hair cut into a military hair cut. a small scar on his chin. I walked with him to a wall, and took down a gun. i chose a M16 like mine. we pointed our guns at the faded target mark on the wall. Duke shot, hitting the edge of the target.

I took in a breath. i breathed out, opened my eyes, and pulled the trigger. The bullet hit the center of the target. the team stared n awe. "Woah, your good." tony said. i grinned of coarse I am. "come on, Alex." Duke pulled me to the fighting ring. We spared for some time. I did a round house kick, and Duke ducked. "Man, your really good." He said impressed. I blocked a punch, and smirked. "Thanks, Duke." we stopped to rest. over the next few days,I trained hard, and got to know the team better.

Jessica was a tough 18 year old, who knew everything ther was to know about the army. Her father had been in the x force. Tony was a crazy smart 14 year old, who could crack any encryption. Will was a muscly 19 year old guy, who could move a car by himself. And Duke, the leader. A 17 year old, who was tough,handsome, smart, and knew how to make the army fun. I had gotten my bunker with Jess. "Man I'm so tired." She complained, flopping on her bed. we had just ended our patrol shift. I sighed.

My phone rang. I looked at the I.D. Raph. "Oh,man He is going to kill me." I mumbled. "Hey, Raph." I said. "Alex! Where the heck are you? I keep calling you never pick up." I took a breath. "Listen Raph. its complicated. But I'll come home tomorrow. I promise." Raph sighed."Ok,see ya."I ended the call. "who was that?" Jess asked. I looked over at her. "My...boyfriend. He was wondering where I am." I answered.

Jess rolled over to look at me. "What is he like?" I sighed. "he's a hot head. but he has a soft side. He's loving and loyal to his family." Jessica sighed. "So..what does he look like?" I had to chuckle. I pulled up a picture on my phone of Raph and I. I was holding pizza up, and he was reaching for it. Mikey had took the photo. I threw her the phone. Jessica caught it, and looked down at the picture. I watched as her eyes widened. "Is that a...turtle?" She stammered. I smiled. "yep. He's a mutant turtle." Jess handed back the phone. "Ok, so how did you guys meet?" I told her about saving Donnie, then waking up in the lair.

"Wow, so you guys live in the sewers?" I played with my dog tags. "when my parents died in a fire, I went to live with them. Its been good." Jess grinned. "I would love to meet him." I smiled at her. "mabye some day." With that, We rolled over and went to sleep.
