Your internship with the legendary, Solid Snake, has been going well for you for the first few days. You've both spent countless hours in virtual reality training and you've learned much from the grizzled veteran. After your latest training session, you sit around in the locker room and chat with Blade Wolf.

(Y/N): *Chuckles* I've missed using guns. It feels great...

Blade Wolf: How so?

(Y/N): The smell of gunpowder...the sound of bullets flying through the air...I haven't used a gun like this since...since...

Blade Wolf: Raiden...Your hands...

You look down and see your hands slighty shaking. You didn't notice it at first, but know you can feel adrenaline flowing through your body. You haven't felt this way since you were in the war. You get angry and slam your first into a locker and make a large dent in it. Taking deep breaths, you hold your head and calm yourself down. Blade Wolf looks at you curiously and analyzes your actions.

Blade Wolf: Hmm....interesting...

(Y/N): What?

Blade Wolf: Oh...it's nothing...

(Y/N): If you've got something to say then say it.

Blade Wolf: I have nothing to say.

(Y/N): Tch...Whatever....

You finish your business in the locker room and leave. Snake waits for you out in the hall and walks over to you.

Solid Snake: Nice work today Raiden. You've shown a lot of progress since the last time we met.

(Y/N): The last time we met, you lost your eye...

Solid Snake: *Chuckles* I guess my bad luck must've rubbed off on you. What's wrong? You look out of it.

(Y/N): Huh? Oh sorry...It's...It's nothing...

Solid Snake: I see...Well anyway, we're going out to eat with Hal and Sunny. Can you go start my jeep?

(Y/N): Sure.

Snake tosses you the keys to his jeep and you walk away. Blade Wolf stares at you for a while until you're out of the hallway and looks to Snake.

Solid Snake: Is there something you want to tell me?

Blade Wolf: Ever since i have started living with Raiden, i noticed he has been acting rather strangely. Reoccurring nightmares, delusions, being quick to anger, just now his hands we're shaking uncontrollably. I believe these are symptoms to what is known as "Schizophrenia".

Solid Snake: *Sigh* That's what happens when you're a former child soldier. I can't imagine what it was like for him. Have you seen him taking any medication?

Blade Wolf: Negative. To my knowledge, he has rarely gone to anyone about his problems.

Solid Snake: Seriously? Damn it kid...

Blade Wolf: Why would grown men need to use children as combatants in warfare....If i were able to, it would make me vomit. Humans continue to show me how cruel they can be.

Solid Snake: It's because children are more easier to manipulate, they become more obedient than any grown man and more dedicated to the causes they're forced into fighting for. I don't agree with it either. It's cowardly and barbaric to force an innocent child into such a role.

Blade Wolf: Wouldn't training to become a hero be considered equal to being a child soldier? From what i have learned, the students at UA are in danger if this "League of Villains" is teamed up with Desperado.
