Everything was going good tonight. I saved two people so far and was sitting waiting for a cry of help.
Then I saw someone fighting with another man. I put a stop to their fighting only to find out it was a trap from the cops.
"What's your name? Your real name sweetheart." Said the cop.
'Sammy McStiles sir.' I said with my head in my hands and siting on the ground.
"The one that was missing for a week?" The cop asked.
'The one and only.' I said with sarcasm.
"How old are you?" Asked the man.
'Fourteen sir I know I don't look like it. But thats what happens when someone experiments on you. If you putting me in a foster home hope you know it's not going to last long.' I said ending my rant with a sing song voice.
Police cars showed up. The undercover cop was telling them all what he learned. They took my finger prints and scanned them through the system to make sure I am telling the truth.
They came up with a positive result. They escorted me to a police car. Then brought me to the police station to talk to a social worker.
"My name is Jasmine Bronco in your social worker. Do you have any comments or concerns?" The lady asked.
"I'm fourteen I don't sleep at all. And I fight for those that can't do it themselves. And when I reach seventeen I'm enlisting in the military.' I said.
"What do you mean you can't sleep?" Jasmine asked.
'I was kidnapped and experimented on. They messed something up and can no longer sleep.' I said with no emotion.
'Can you send me to someone in the military. Or a base of some kind to get trained?' I asked.
"Yeah I'll work on that." Said the lady. She mad many calls and finally got someone to take me. 
We drove to a military base on the outskirts of Washington. We were escorted to the generals office. We waited until given permission to enter. We walked in the lady sit down however I just stood there waiting until told to do so.
"So you are the kid that wanted to be in the military. State your name and reason why you want to join." Said the general.
'Sir, my name is Sammy McStiles. I want to join so that others in our country is protected. So that others that have family won't be separated. I want to join because I want to help my country from loosing in war. I want to join because it's my duty to help my country even if I am too young. I can always train harder and longer to prove myself. I will always sacrifice so that others won't do so. I will die for the president in the United States of America.' I barked straight ahead of me.
"Yes you will ill get your uniform and platoon number and access to training grounds at all hours. Dismissed." The general said. I nodded my head and turned towards the door. I walked out and waited until someone escorts me to the barracks.
A man came and got me. He gave me the uniform and boots. I went to the showers and got ready. I got dressed and done my hair in a strict bun. I walked out of the showers and to the man. He gave me a tour of the base and the barracks. Even though they won't see me in there. He gave me my training schedule and I.d card with barcode. I went to the training field and started running. Like this was all normal.
