Mikey

Whats important to you?Love?Hate?For me its neither I've suffered the pain of both of those and I hated it.Blood was on my hands and a demon inside me...They saved me...

"Should we be doing this" I voice unfamiliar said "What can he offer to the table in this war" the same voice said I got up of the bed and walked to the voice that made it.It was a girl pnk dyed hair and a boy with a guitar on his side "Scarlett what did we offer to the table when they took us in" the boy said "Look Josh this kid isn't like us" Scarlett said "It's like your talking that I'm not here" I said "Who is this guy anyway" she said calming down a bit "Name is Mikey" I said "And what's special about you?" she said circling me like a vulture "Don't worry she is just like that 'cause your new" Josh said "Well last time I remembered I killed people with a different personality of mine" I said "So you can fight?" she said "Well kind off give me a weapon and I can kill anyone I want" I said "Sorry for what I said that was rude of me so let's try that again,I'm Scarlett" she said raising her hand in a handshake manner "Im Mikey" I said shaking her hand "Welcome Mikey to your first day in training.." she said then suddenly a woman came behind them wearing a red satin dress and a purse on her hand "Mikey" she said "Push Ups now!" she said "What?" I said "Push Ups now Cadet or else" she said menacingly.When a person like Natalie orders you do it or you will take a trip down what we Cadets call "Danger Zone" this is a place where you will go under excessive pain and when we call it Danger Zone we mean actual danger.Danger enough to kill you.The thing is she doesn't mess around first day?You thought that was hard well wait for the second it's hell..

My Second Day on the HQ
"Death waits for all of us,it's up to us to stop it" she said inspecting all of us "Who is our enemy?" she asked.No one answered "That's right no one as our enemy is yet to show their faces and all we know they are gods" she said everyone was in shock "You heard me,Gods" she said once more "Mikey!" she said "Ma'am Yes Ma'am!" I said "You will lead today's training as I will be out follow the regiment I've set up for you" she said "Why me Ma'am?" I said "Cause you show promising skill" she said walking off "Alright as usual we will start with out warm up!Everyone 30 push ups and add 20 if you fail to reach 30!" I ordered them none of them followed "Did you hear me!I said push up now our I will put you all in the Zone" I ordered everyone followed all of them didn't show any signs of good fighters except one Abigail.Records show she came from a broken family,abused by her own mother and she was fostered by a new family.They found her watching as a fire devour her new family and their house only her as a survivor.The investigation led up with a candle lighting the fire but no sign of a candle according to her and she done her research about strange things happening in this country so she joined voluntarily overall she is stronger that all of us in her report to get pass the first phase of training is her motive to fight is her rage for what happened and to me she is like Natalie in training.She finished the push ups even before any one did I walked up to her and said "Grats on completing the push ups" "Sir Thank You Sir" she said "Go to the range" I ordered she followed my order.I took one good look on each  of the cadets then something caught my eye...there was an abnormality in the counting normally we are thirty-three but today we are thirty-nine so....there's a spy here."Everyone up!" I ordered and they followed I took one more good look at them assessing who was old here and who was new here until I figured it out six people are spies meaning they would want to spread out but here whenever there is a new cadet they are separated to announce their presence "All of the new ones that came yesterday go there" I ordered pointing at a nearby place no one followed.Through the crowds of cadets I saw them talking..The Spies....then I made my move.I punched one knocking him out while the other brought out a gun and the other cadets backed off scared "Seems like you found us out Mikey" he said then suddenly the rest of the spies grabbed me and said "Welcome to the fight Mikey" then they let go "What?" I said in confusion"This was a test by Natalie and you passed.Welcome to our rebellion against gods" he said handing me a gun I took it and said "Tomorrow the gods die" then I shot pointing upward at the sky as a symbol of killing the gods....

And here I am on the edge of a cliff about to die but a man with lighting for hands...but I wont go down without a fight I will never go down without a fight.
