Chapter 1, Part 1: Assemble the Troops
Private: Colonel, they're here.

Colonel: Hmm, well bring them in Private.

Private: Uhh, yes sir. You can come in now.

Colonel: Ahh, you must be the operatives from the Special Ops teams. Allow me to introduce myself; my name is Knight, Colonel Josep Knight.

Clay: Cut the cheap talk Colonel, and get to the point.

Colonel Knight: Hmm, Lieutenant Colonel Clay Bleu of Special Ops Team 2; 19 years old, master of the Sword Arts, fouled mouth, and a superb leader, but impatient.

Clay: Great, he knows about us.

Kayal: He must work in the Investigation Department.

Colonel Knight: Major Kayal Riff.

Kayal: Yes sir!

Colonel Knight: Quite an amazing resume you got here Major. From your I.Q. standings, you are considered a genius. You're also a Master Mystic that must've been quite a journey. You are also under Clay's command, as second in command.

Clay: Let's move on please.

Colonel Knight: Very well, Captain Hasmin Syn.

Hasmin: Present.

Colonel Knight: Special Ops Team 3, aggressive, yet loyal to her work, sometimes hard to work with. Unmatchable marksman. Quite handy with a gun, eh?

Hasmin: Thanks to my father.

Colonel: Quite, First Lieutenant Des Diaz.

Des: Yes.

Colonel Knight: Unbelievable, 57 top priority missions without a scratch. You are a hell of a pilot, and an expert at martial arts.

Des: Thanks.

Colonel Knight: Last, but not least, Command Sergeant Major Rika Mills. Hmm, it says you've mastered the Mejhyk Arts. That must have been hard since there are only a few people who know that.

Rika: It wasn't that hard.

Colonel Knight: Indeed, and you are one of our negotiators. I never understood why the military needed negotiators when I was your age.

Hasmin: Colonel, why are we here?

Colonel Knight: Thank you for asking Captain. Ahem, the reason why I called you five here was to give you an assignment. Have you heard of "Operation: Fifth Trinity".

Kayal: The operation of the creation of a matter-manipulating machine by the criminal mastermind known to us as "Y".

Colonel Knight: That's correct. I'm giving you five that assignment.

Rika: Wait a second, I believe Teams 9 & 10 were on that mission.

Colonel Knight: We...we lost contact with them three days ago.

Des: Damn.

Hasmin: So you are going to send in four different Special Ops teams in for this one mission.

Colonel Knight: Not four, one. I've been given clearance to command a special team of our finest operatives. You five are the best I got. I'll give you briefing tomorrow, 09:00 hours sharp. You're dismissed.

We all walked out, but what came next surprised me, Clay, an unsurprisable guy.

Colonel Knight: Clay, can you give a minute?

Clay: Yeah.

Colonel Knight: You did master the Sword Arts, right?

Clay: That's what it says on the little paper of yours.

Colonel Knight: Everyone knows that it is impossible.

Clay: Why?

Colonel Knight: People who have mastered that technique have died trying!

Clay: So what you are saying is that I didn't master it.

Colonel Knight: I'm saying that it is impossible for you to be here.

Clay: Well, I'm not dead, because when I get shot it hurts, but I did lose something when I did master the Sword Arts. The last technique I had to learn. I didn't die like the others, but I did lose my right arm.

Colonel Knight: So that arm is...

Clay: Yeah, it's bionic.

Rika: Oh my God!

Clay: I have to go Colonel.

Colonel Knight: Be on your way.

Rika: What was all that about?

Clay: ...Nothing.

Hasmin: Okay....
