Upon hearing everything tonight, he was really getting anxious.

"Mabuti na lang pala hindi ako pinatulan nito nung binubully ko marunong parang humawak ng baril ito...!"
"Fuck... Ano ang gagawin ko? Paano pag ako ang napag-tripan nito?"
"Siya ang commander ko, paano ito??!!"
"And she just perpetrated 12 people last night??? Howww?"

These were the questions bugging him since the declaration of his Ninong that he will be part of her team. He can't really help but feel nervous.

" Faulkerson, first rule... Loyalty! I told them already. If you don't want to work with me, tell me at least kung magtraydor ka man, handa akong paulanan ka ng bala!" Mendoza said in tight lipped voice, feeling a bitter taste on her mouth as she remember who the traitor is...
"Second rule, ayoko ng pabebe sa team ko! Hindi porke inaanak ka ng general pa-VIP ka, umalis ka na kung magrereklamo ka! The moment that you will took this responsibility, you need to work with the team blindly... Meaning kung kakain kami ng bato, kakain ka rin!" Maine with a foul mood is like a spitting dragon. Her face beet red and eyes sparks... Her mouth cursed as if it was made to curse, she was a totally different person now than the nerd she met before! If you can see her now, you wouldn't wish to cross path with her.
Richard, on the other hand, remain silent, he can only stare at her while she cuss. His face was getting red every minute as he listen to her rule!
"I accept the challenge!" He said defiantly...
"Are you sure? I don't want additional baggage, kasi marami na akong iniisip! You have to learn on your own, you have to observe and know who your buddies are and those reel. Kung sanay ka makipagplastikan sa mga "kaibigan" mo, dito you have to know them, not physically but you need to know how they think and work!" Maine said sarcastically...
"I know!" Richard said, anger laced his voice.
Tinaasan siya ng kilay ni Maine..
"What were you saying, Lt?" Maine asked with a smirk.
"Yes, Captain. I accept your challenge!" Richard said with conviction.
"Then you're in, Lt. Richard Faulkerson! Let's see how long can you handle the pressure! Welcome to hell!" Maine warned him and was about to go when...

"Captain Mendoza? Uyyy, long time no see!" The arsenal friend of Richard greeted her.  Nakasalubong nila ito pero dahil busy sa "orientation" hindi nila ito napansin!

"Uyyy, Tech. Sgt! Long time no see... Kamusta?" Maine greeted him.

"Okay lang, its been a while... Care for a round?" The tech sgt  invited her.

"Oh, well, why not? I need to calm down, kulang ng exercise ko!" Maine said...

"Richard, sama ka! Para makita mo kung gaano kalupit ang kapitan ko!!!" The tech Sgt invited him. 

Richard can't declined the offer kahit gusto niya, nakita niya kasi na nakataas ang kilay ni Mendoza na parang kinukutya siya!  Isa pa he wants to know how good she really is after gunning down 12 last night! How did she do that? All the while, he thought she was just resting to dodge questions from people last night.  Wala siyang kaideya-ideya na nakikipagbarilan na siya!

They reached the shooting range, and since its already dark, they decided to go to the target room for good lighting...
