[COLOR=DarkGreen]Cool smell of winter was in the air. Unleaved trees looked demonic and haunting as they stood dead around the military base.

Syn Devillin, an 17 year old boy and his best friend Gavin Syles who was also 17 walked swiftly around the base heading towards their quarters.

'Damn its cold,' spoke Gavin as they could see their own breath in the soft wind.

'It is winter,' spoke Syn, his tone sending shievers up Gavins spin

'You know..you should be called the Ice King......,' said Gavin in a serious tone, 'Sometimes your colder than winter itself,'

Syn looked at Gavin who now stood with his hands behind his head and a smirk on his face

'Sometimes I wonder if your all there,' growled Syn as they carried on

'Well..I know for a fact that you aren't.."Mr i'm so silent if i speak someone might hear me"...' laughed Gavin. At that moment Syn punched him in the mouth causing him to fall over

'OUCH!!...you know that really hurts!,' grunted Gavin as he sat on the ground rubbing his mouth

'So does your voice!,' snapped Syn as Gavin stood up

'Now you've hurt my feelings!,' snapped gavin sarcastically as he stood up. Syn looked at him and frowned, 'Ok..Ok...geez...,'

They then carried on to their quarters. They walked threw the door to find General Grafton waiting for them

'Hey General Grafton!,' spoke Gavin with a hint of confusion

Syn gave the General a slight nod as he closed the door behind him. The room had two single beds situated on opposite sides of the room with draws between them

'So what brings you to our humble abode?,' spoke Gavin as he gave a bow and spun his hand around in the air. Syn raised a brow at Gavin and kicked him

'Ouch!!..Dammit Syn you never let me have any fun!,' growled Gavin as he turned his back on the General and Syn. The General smiled

'Well, Commander Devillin wants to see you both.' spoke the General

'Why does my father want to see us?' questioned Syn

'He didn't say, but he said that it was ergent,' replied the General

Syn gave a slight nod as the General left

'So wonder why ol' commandie wants to see us?' questioned Gavin as he turned and looked at Syn who was in deep thought.[/COLOR]
________________________________

[COLOR=DarkSlateGray]Graduation.... is like death.... while tears are shared, there's always a happy afterlife...

"No.. dammit, that won't do... I'm not writing a freaking eulogy!" Kelsey said as she ripped the paper out of her notebook.

"Don't worry, the words will come to you. They always do, Kelsey." Jamie said. She was Kelsey's best friend. Not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but her best friend nonetheless.

"It's not so much the words I'm worried about, look at all these career choices we got! We got one for Doctors Degree, another for Dentistry..."

"Yeah, what's wrong with that?" Jamie said as she bit into her apple.

Kelsey looked at her with a blank stare. She turned over to her desk and repeatedly hit her head over the top of it.

"You're going to give yourself a headache, Kelsey, why don't you give it a rest."

"I can't rest, we've got all the best career choices, and our ENTIRE senior class will be lucky enough if they can qualify for a job at Mc Donald?s!" Kelsey said as she picked up her notebook and walked away.

She had reached her locker, and Jamie ran up behind her. "What's wrong though with the jobs we have Kelsey?" she asked again. Kelsey smashed her head once more on the door.

"Jamie, have you been listening to a word I've said?"

"Yes, but I don't understand how those words could possibly mean anything to each other." she said as she took another bite of her apple.

Kelsey sat down on the bench and sighed. "Jamie... the school paper is going to be printed in less than a month. And in a recent survey the student body president just issued, less than half of our class is going to college."

"So?" Jamie said with her mouth full.

Kelsey screamed in agony. Jamie was making her head hurt. "Jamie... if no one goes to college, then no one can be a DOCTOR, or a DENTIST... or a teacher, or a supervisor..."

"But they can work at Mc Donald?s. You were wrong about that one." she said with a gleeful smile.

That annoyed the crap out of Kelsey. She felt like strangling her best friend right then and there. But decided against it.

"Oh come on Kelsey, lighten up, we're going to be fine."

"I don't know why I care so much, I mean, hardly anyone reads our school newspaper anyway, right?"

"Shh, Kelsey, Miss Latisha is coming... she looks angry..." Jamie said as she finished her apple. Kelsey froze as her teacher's piercing scream sent shivers down her spine.

"MISS MARTINEZ! I need to speak with you at once!"

"Coming... dammit Jamie, why didn't you give me enough time to hide??"

"Hide from what?" she said with a dazed look.

"Ugh!!!!" Kelsey said as she followed Miss Latisha into her office. Miss Latisha was a good teacher, but when she was angry or disappointed, she'd let her students know exactly why. She was the teacher in charge of the Newspaper. And each year, she counted on Kelsey to make up the main article for the end of the year. It was nice to have a teacher have so much faith in her, but it also was a lot of stress to have so much on her shoulders.

Miss Latisha sat down in her chair and stared up at Kelsey. Kelsey put her hands behind her back as she readied herself for the coming scolding.

"I took a look at the recent survey, Miss Martinez, and I wasn't too happy with the results."

"Hey, it's not my fault this class is so stupid." she said. It was a lame attempt to defend herself... and she realized that as her teacher narrowed her eyes around her face. It was no wonder her teacher had never married. She realized this every time she stared at her as if she would burn Kelsey's face off.

"Since most of the kids will not be going to college, I suggest you find alternative job courses."

"Ma'am the only people who would accept this bunch of imbeciles would be some strange scientists who ran out of guinea pigs."

"I want you to go to Teveron Base, Miss Martinez. For two weeks, you will be enrolled in the military and you will write a decent report of what was there, and exactly what it has to offer. Make it sound appealing. We want our audiences to go for it... it's their only chance to make something of themselves."

Kelsey's jaw dropped. "Are... are you serious? The Military?? What about school?"

"You've been given the time off." she said. Kelsey felt the need to sit down at this point. The Military? She had no clue what the military was.... or what it was about. She watched a lot of war movies, granted, but to be enrolled in the real thing was completely new.

"Will I be undercover or something?"

"That's not necessary, you're mainly be enrolled so you have access to all the points that the other soldiers have access to."

"Oh.." Kelsey was still hesitant on the idea... it wasn't making her comfortable at all.

"Miss Martinez, I know this is new to you, but think about it... you're venturing off and becoming a true journalist. You have to admit, this is a chance of a lifetime right now to prove how good you really are."

Kelsey listened and liked what she was hearing... "Alright, I accept. When do I leave?"

"Tonight, go home and pack your bags." Miss Latisha said with a smile.

Jamie burst through the door at that time. "Me too! You can't go without me, Kelsey, you need me too!" Jamie said with tears in her eyes.

"Alright, you can go as well. But remember, I want to see good reports out of you two."

"We got it." Kelsey said as she went out of the office. They left school and walked to the parking lot.

"The military.... why the military, of all places..." Kelsey said looking down as she unlocked her car.

"What about the military?" Jamie asked.

"Don't tell me you don't know where we're going!!" Kelsey said

"Okay I won't." Jamie said getting inside.

Kelsey let out a sigh of relief. "I was going to say, you would have been pretty stupid not to know that that's where we're going.."

"We're going to the MILITARY?!!!!"

"Oh damn... this is going to be a looooooong three weeks." Kelsey said to herself as she started the car and left.[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkGreen]Syn and Gavin marched their way over to the Commanders Office situated on the far side of the base. Soldiers were marching in unison as they walked passed, they Saluted them both and they did the same. Then carried on.

'I wonder why your father wants to see us?' questioned Gavin as he looked at Syn

'What did you do this time?' Syn questioned back with a raised brow

Gavin stopped, 'What?!...me??...I didn't do anything!!!...well not this time,'

Syn turned around and glared at him, 'Last time we were called in was because of you and your "you should lighten up" tale!!,'

'Hey come on now...that was an accident!,' objected Gavin in defense

'Now as i recall....we were giving a mission to do, you were told to bring the ropes and torches...what did you bring!...damn Kerosene lamps!!...you brought them to the gunpowder holding bay!!...how blonde is that!!,' exclaimed Syn folding his arms across his chest

'Hey I maybe blonde but.....i....I'm not blonde!...Brown slightly bleeched is what I like to call it!,' Objected Gavin

Syn shook his head as they carried on to the Commanders office.

They walked through the door and found Commander Devillin sitting behind his desk reading some papers.

'Good evening boys,' smiled Commander Devillin

Gavin looked around, 'Hey man...we mustn't be introuble...your fathers smiling,'

'Shut up,' whispered Syn as he closed the door behind them.

'Take a seat,' spoke the Commander as he pointed to the two empty chairs infront of his desk. The two boys sat down.

'Well, I called you both in to discuss an important matter,' said the commander handing them a paper each.

Syn carefuly red through the paper then jumped up in rage

'OH HELL NO!!!,' he exclaimed, his voice echoed around the room

'Well I see Syn you understand your mission,' smiled the Commander

Gavin quickly red his, 'What?....our mission is to look after two girls???????......now thats a treat,'

Syn then slapped Gavin upside the head and glared at him

'Father you can't be serious....I'm not a babysitter...and i'm not interested in looking after a couple of college brats!,' snapped Syn as he folded his arms

'Well Syn, your guys last mission was a failure and you need to redeem your credits...you can always redeem them on kitchen duty?, you need to make these girls feel at home, show them around, they'll be under both your wings so they are your guys responsibility'

Syn frowned hard and looked out the window, 'Mission.....Acknowledged,'

'Good!,' smiled the Commander, 'I want you both back here tomorrow at 1000 hours. You are dismissed,'

Syn stormed out of the Commanders office while Gavin followed as if it was christmas.

'Oh come on Syn...its not that bad....they may even be better than the girls here...although....the girls here are lookers,' smiled Gavin

'I'm not a babysitter,' snapped Syn

Gavin red the paper again, 'They're the same age as us,'

'Who cares...,' growled Syn. At that moment a girl ran towards them, her hair was black and long and her bangs hung down over one side of her face. She wore a blue uniform.

'Hey Kristy!,' smiled Gavin

'Hey Gavin, Hey Syn,' she smiled looking dreamy eyed at Syn, Syn as always took no notice.

'Syns abit grumpy today,' smiled Gavin

'Well if you ask me...he's always like that,' laughed Kristy, 'Well go to go, I'm doing ten laps,'

'See yah Kristy,' called Gavin

'Bye Gavin, see yah Syn,' she called back.

'Come on...lets get to our dormantry,' spoke Syn coldly as they carried on walking, Gavin couldn't stop reading the paper.[/COLOR]
____________________________

[COLOR=DarkSlateGray]They walked inside the compound, and she instantly had her notebook out. She looked at Jamie and she was eating another apple.

"Did you bring the recorder?"

"Yeah I got it. I'll use it when we start interviewing."

"Alright, but I'm not sure how or when we're going to do anything just yet. Just do what I do, and say what I say."

"Alright... I can do that... I think..." she said.

"Don't hurt yourself, Jamie.." Kelsey laughed. "I'll take care of everything." Kelsey said with a smile.

"Do you think we're going to make this into a success, Kelsey?"

"Well we'll certainly try to, won't we."

"Do you think any of the soldiers here will give us a hard time?" Jamie said.

"No, my guess is a lot of them are just middle aged drop outs who couldn't get a job elsewhere."

"Kelsey, what kind of stereotypical comment is that?" Jamie asked.

Kelsey felt bad for what she said. "Sorry, I was just thinking out loud again. All I'm saying is that we most likely won't find any trouble with anyone here. We're civillians you know, we're hold with special care."

"I hope you're right, Kelsey." Jamie said.

"Don't worry so much, Jamie. We'll be fine."

They walked to the main office by the control centers for communications. Kelsey looked at Jamie and gave her a quick smile. "Ready?"

"Ready as I'll ever be." Jamie said and they walked inside and saw a man sitting in his chair with his back facing the door they entered through.

Kelsey knocked the side of the wall and the man turned around.

"Hi... um, we're the students from the high school... sorry if we're interrupting something."

"No not at all, come in and sit down." he said as he gathered his papers he was working on.

Jamie and Kelsey sat down. Kelsey couldn't help but smile at Jamie, she was scared as hell. She put a gentle and firm hand on her shoulder. Jamie looked at her as Kelsey gave her a small wink. She nodded and tried to relax a little more.

"I was told that you two were going to right a report on our base..."

"Yes, it's for our School paper. We're looking for Career choices for our senior class, and well..." she looked at Jamie and wasn't sure how to say it. Jamie gave her a confused look and Kelsey realized she would get no help from her.

"Well a lot of the students had expressed in a recent survey how they would like to enroll in the military after graduation." Kelsey said.

"I see..." he said as he got up and went to his filer.

"Good Save, Kelsey.." Jamie whispered.

Kelsey smiled and he came back with two packets of papers. He handed one to each of them.

"What's this for?" she asked.

"You're enrollment papers. We will be looking forward to you joining our base for the next three weeks. Please, make yourselves at home. And remember, wake up hours is at 0500 every morning. And kitchen duty is given to those who sleep in." he said, barely looking up once to look at them.

"I-I'm sorry, I don't understand... we're only writing a report..." Kelsey said as she looked through the papers. Jamie's face went white... and this time, Kelsey didn't blame her.

"You're teacher called me and asked if we can enroll two students into our base for the time being... and I said yes... and those are your enrollment papers.... did you need anything else ladies?"

Kelsey was thrown completely off guard.... "But....... we're civillians, we don't know anything about the military!" she said exasperatedly.

"Miss, I'm sure you will learn SOMETHING in the next three weeks. Now if you'll excuse me I have some work to do."

"But... where will we sleep? Surely you don't expect us to bunk with then men in this base!!"

"Of course not, Sargeant Syn and Gavin will be showing you two to your quarters. They'll meet you at the entrance. There's plenty of living space here on the base, and I hope you will enjoy your stay. That is all." he said with a brief smile and swivled his chair around.

Kelsey stood up and her face flourished with anger. She was about to pop him one on the head when Jamie pulled her back outside and closed the door.

"Who does he think he is???" Kelsey said as she stormed off toward the entrance.

"The Commander I think..." Jamie said.

Kelsey shook her head. "Jamie... I'm in no mood for your stupidity right now."

"Geez Kelsey, I didn't do anything to you." she said as she walked with her.

"I'm sorry Jamie... it's just frustrating... do you realize I've never woken up at 5 in the morning before in my life? And on top of that, I see myself getting kitchen duty for quite some time... we'll have to do drills... all of that stuff... Oh god, I'm not cut out for that kind of work."

"What are you talking about? You're the best athlete in the class, Kelsey."

"That's not what I mean... I'm not a military person..."

"No one said this job was easy."

"Yeah, well no one said I'd have to join the military either." she said as they walked to the entrance.[/COLOR]
_____________________________________________

[COLOR=DarkGreen]Syn frowned at the two girls who were talking outside the Commanders office

'I take it your the two Journalists?' questioned Gavin with a smile

The two girls spun around to see two teen boys dressed in uniform

'Ah....yes we are,' replied the one who was complainning about getting up early, 'And you are?'

'I'm Sergeant Gavin Syles and this is Sergeant Syn Devillin,' replied Gavin still smiling

'I'm Kelsey and this is Jamie,' Kelsey introduced

The girls stood there for a second just staring at Syn who was standing behind Gavin, he looked as though he had never smiled before in his whole life.....and the way he stared was cold making them shiever.

'Well please follow us, your quarters a next door to ours, they're not five star but they're really warm and spacious,' smiled Gavin

They walked across the grounds. Syn stood outside while Gavin showed them around.

'These cabins have their own facilities, the showers are great and if you need anything you just go to the supply bay.' explained Gavin as he handed them a sheet each. It was a map of the gounds

'I didn't realize how big this place is,' spoke Jamie

'Hey Sergeant Gavin..whats Sergeant Syns problem?....or does he always look as though he's out to kill?' questioned Kelsey as she could see Syn standing at attention outside.

'Oh he's always like that, you'll get use to it...everyone else has,' smiled Gavin, 'Oh and call me Gavin,'

'Ok,' smiled the girls

'We're going to the go to the military air force bay, your both welcomed to come along,' suggested Gavin

'Ah..yeah...are we allowed?' questioned Jamie

'Yeah, even though you two have been enroled you are still citizens and your under mine and Syn's protection and care....and besides..with Syn around you'll be alot safer,' smiled Gavin

'What do you mean by...safer?' questioned Kelsey

'I didn't mean it like that...what I meant was that you wont get harrassed by some of the other soldiers,' explained Gavin

'That wouldn't be because Syn's related to the Commander of the base....I mean...they do carry the last name,' spoke Kelsey

'No. Syn maybe Commander Devillins son but Syn is well known for holding his own and doing what he says,' replied Gavin

'So Commander Devillin is Syn's father...his father seems more friendlier than him,' said Jamie

'Syn...yeah he can be a down right bastard but...he's my best friend, I know him through and through, he's really a good guy although he doesn't seem to be or act like it....but he's a loyal friend to me,' smiled Gavin, 'Anyway, we've got to get ready. we'll be back to get you in an hour and a half,'

'By the way...do we have to get up at 0500 hours every morning?' questioned Kelsey

'Yup...even visitors have to,' laughed Gavin as he left.

Syn watched Gavin walk out of the cabin

'They're really cool Syn,' spoke Gavin as they both walked to their quarters

'...hn...'

Gavin laughed.[/COLOR]
