When I got the bullet out he said "T-h-h..."

I said "slow down."

"t-thank y-ou."

I asked "What's your name? how old are you?"

He said "I d-on't have one.... But they called me 1.6. and they log me as 13"

I said with confusion "1.6.? And who are they? Log?"

He said with fear in his eyes "I-I c-an't tell you."

 I replied "yes you can"

 After about an hour of going back and forth, he broke.

 "Fine b-but yo-you can't tell anyone."

  I nodded.

      He started "They ar-are a gr-group of... of scie-nt-ist, tha-that  are try-tryi-ng to ma-make a s-uper wea-pon they find ba-bies or kid-s and st-art test-ing on th-em to m-ake their wea-pon to take o-ver oth-er count-ries for the U.S. gover-nment. The only reason I....I....I g-got out was b-because...of my s...s....sister... b-but t-they...g-got her b-before she c-could hop the..... f-fence. "

I thought to myself this kid is nuts.

      I replied "sooooooooo the U.S government wants to take over other countries, come on why would they use kids and not the army."


   He replied in a broken voice "I-its true w-why don't you b-believe me...... w-why else w-would I be o-out t-there."

 Maybe this is true he looked very broken up that I don't believe him... and why else would he be out there.

     I started "I... I believe you."

His eyes lit up

  "Y-you d-do." he said with hope in his voice.

  "Ok how do we stop them and get your sister back." I said in a cheerful voice.

    "w-we c-can't t-t-they s-shot her e-even if s-she was s-s-still al-alive they w-would have her u-under l-lock d-down and we c-could n-never get her out a-alive." 

He continued "w-we wouldn't live t-though it."

I replied "we have to try."

He said with a small bit of hope "Find but we need a plain."

I replied "How do we start."
