Agent Arizona: Man or Machine?

Everyone Meet....Who?

Arizona walked onto the bridge where he saw the Director and Counselor Price beside a large table. 

"Agent, welcome to the bridge." The Director greeted. Arizona saluted them again. "Arizona, I understand that you have a wide variety of skills correct?" Zone nodded. "Very well. Time to prove yourself. Head to the training room where I will test your skills. You will face off against any of the agents of your choosing." Zone saluted the men before walking out towards the training room.

Carolina was training in the gymnasium trying to get faster and stronger to beat Agent Texas. "I will beat her. If it's the last thing I do." She told herself. She was hitting a punching bag furiously. "I will never let her beat me...NEVER!" She hit the bag with all her might and left a hole where sand began to pour on the deck.

"All agents report to the training room." FILSS said over the com. Carolina sighed as she looked at the sandy covered floor. She grabbed her helmet and headed towards the training room. On her way she ran into Wash.

"Hey Wash." She said casually.

"Hey." He responded back. "Training a bunch, huh?"

"How'd you guess?" She chuckled.

"Sweat coming down your face. Also your fingers shaking." He stated somewhat worriedly. Carolina looked at her hands and saw her fingers tremble. She curled them and made fists.

"I'm fine." She said firmly. Wash nodded and they both walked to the observation booth of the training room where they saw the other agents.

"Anybody got any idea what this is about?" Wash asked dumbfounded.

"No clue." York stated. Maine shrugged his shoulders.

"Maybe they're letting one of us go." CT said slyly.

"Har har." South said unamused.

"Agents!" Everyone turned and saw the Director and Counselor Price walk in. They all stood in a line and snapped to attention. "I have called you all here to meet our newest recruit. Agent Arizona..." Zone suddenly appeared in front of the Freelancers with his arms crossed and made them all jump back in surprise.

"Holy mother of-!" Wash said jumping back.

"Great he has camo too?!" South angrily yelled.

"Teleportation actually." Counselor Price clarified.

"Arizona has been given the option of sparring against any one of you and he has chosen the following: Agent Maine, Agent South Dakota, Agent Carolina, and Agent Texas." To say everyone was shocked would be an understatement. Carolina AND Texas?! What was this guy thinking?

South started snickering and walked towards Arizona. "You really think you can take on the four of us new guy?" Zone let his arms drop to his sides and stared. "Got nothing to say?"

"Agent Arizona lost his voice in battle. He cannot speak whatsoever." South went silent at that sentence and looked back at Zone who just folded his arms again. South got back in line. "Anyone else?" The Director questioned. Everyone was silent. "Good, Arizona prepare yourself. Grab whatever weapons you require and wait in the training room." Zone nodded and walked out of the room.

Zone didn't grab anything and was in a fighting stance against Maine. 

"Round One begin: Agent Arizona vs Agent Maine." FILSS said over the com. Zone cracked his neck as Maine cracked his knuckles. Maine then charged at Zone who just stood like a statue. As Maine came close he brought up his arm ready to swing but Zone was faster, his fingers curled into a fist and swung a hard left hook to Maine's visor. The muscular Freelancer fell to the ground with a loud thud. Maine shook his head before he was grabbed by the back of his collar and looking straight into the visor of Arizona. Zone brought his fist down and smashed Maine's head to the ground. "Round One goes to Agent Arizona." FILSS announced.

"Please tell me I'm not the only who just saw that." North stated shocked as hell.

"No you weren't man." Wash confirmed. Zone stood to his full height and looked at everyone in the observation room. He spread his arms as if to say "What?" Maine struggled to get up dizzy and shaking his head. He turned onto his back when a hand was extended to him. He looked up at Zone who nodded for Maine to take his hand. Maine confusingly took the hand as he was helped up. Zone extended his hand for Maine to shake. Maine looked at the hand before shaking it. They both nodded at one another before Maine walked off with pat on the back by Zone.

"Looks like Maine doesn't have a grudge." CT stated. "You're up South." South cracked her fists before walking down to the platform.
