Sorry for the long wait here it is!

Ares POV

        I sat up front with the other kits my dark grey pelted blue eyed brother Apollo to my left; Nox my blacked pelted yellow eyed best friend to my right. We sat with about twenty other Tom kits as we all prepared for what we were brought into this world to be; a soldiers. Three toms sat up in front of us, a agile looking brown tabby Tom with brown eyes, a grey Tom with his glossy pelt. The only one left was a enormous black Tom with amber eyes, hard not to tell he was my father.  His eyes seemed to stare into your soul as the coldness sent shivers down your spine. He was Zeus the leader of this rouge group, his goal is to make the perfect soldier. By the way he always looked at me it was clear to tell out of many attempts I had all the genetics he was looking for. His generals were hades and Poseidon, they were his go to cats, as well as his brothers.

       " You are the new generation of soldiers," hades voice ring across the clearing as he spoke.

" We will assign you a general, they will teach you what you need to know, today we test your natural ability and assign you to your general," Poseidon spoke with a calming tone, he being the more relaxed out of them. With that Zeus swished his black tail, signaling for us to begin.

       " Good luck to you Ares" Nox gave me a hopeful smile.

      "You to my friend" I had looked around searching for a sparring partner. I was on,y four moons but I had a natural strong muscular build which I got from my father.

I finally found a partner being a agile silver tabby Tom, it hard to miss his long nimble legs. I towered over him in height but he was by far quicker. With the wave of his black tail everyone was signaled to begin their fight. My opponent attacked first, claws out and aimed at me. I leap into the air to dodge his charge; with my momentum I slammed back down on the smaller kits back. He yowled in surprise when I pinned him down. Just like that I was first to finish and wind my fight. I kept the smaller kit pinned to the ground,  it wanting them to upset me for killing a soldier to early, well guard now.

Before long everyone had finished and we sat into two different groups according to the match.

"Loser you will head back and talk to Hermes to begin your training as hunters, guards, or spies if your lucky" Poseidon assorted with a lash of his gray tail. With that said the losers all left; leaving ten kits including me, Nox, and Apollo.

"We have chosen our students, listen for your name to be called," hades spoke calling out four kits names, my ears would perk at Apollo's name. Poseidon took the rest of the group which included Nox. Having my name not been called I sat alone.

"This generations prodigy is Ares, he will be training under my command" Zeus's voice would boom around the clearing his eyes on me. I got looks of pity as all the kits were stiff at his choosing of a kit. He walked over and with a flick of his left ear signaled me to follow. The groups split, all of us padding to our separate training grounds. My new life as a trainee under the command of Zeus the ruthless begins.
