Once the shopping was over, Fletcher and I had pasta for lunch at one of the cafes He introduced rape flavoured NST, which tasted like red wine – very nice and now officially my favourite By the time I’d arrived back at my aparts so I put e and darted down to my office in the Command Centre

Where the recruits’ personal files on my desk as I’d expected them to be? No

I kneas rude, but I searched Jared’s desk seen as he was intent on playing gaht do this as all his draere locked and nothing of interest was on the surface of the bureau Plonker Well he really didn’t know h to rock my resolve I’d just have to learn about the recruits onfor me? No Not even one of them Were they all plonkers as well?

I ventured around the squads’ grounds, but there was no sign of any of the with the other squads in the rainforests or even lounging lazily at the beach After twentyai a freaking food fight Yes, they really were plonkers as well

"Oi!" I hollered "There better be a very good reason why you’re all in here instead of in the training arena"

Sohed, some of them whined, some of them snorted, and the others whistled as they suddenly found the decor to be fascinating

"Well?" I demanded

"Easy there, Co personal, okay, we just don’t think we need tutoring on our powers Commander Michaels told us that usually when squads are asseifts are raw so they need a lot of training We were selected for having such good control of our gifts already seen as Antonio needs us ready soon So Co with you or not"

"I’ll bet he did," I said through gritted teeth I so wanted to put Jared on his backside again

Max flashed me a flirtatious smile "Why don’t you come and join us, me and you could -"

"Don’t even finish that sentence, Slap-head"

"Hey, I told you, calla wanker, you’re Slap-head" I glanced around the ten blokes "So that’s how you all feel?" Again I was talking through my teeth

There were nods and ‘yes’s

"It’s lucky for you lot that right now I’ more with Co you now – and don’t take this lightly – if you’re not at the training arena tomorroear to God I’ll put every one of you on your lazy arses"

I could have kicked their backsides right thisJared in half It was one thing to mislay the files or other ether to under their backsides wouldn’t ure while they were in this mentality

Lucky for me but terribly unfortunate for hih papers when I entered Enraged to the point of feeling ho Fletcher hi "What do you think you’re playing at?" I growled loudly at Jared as I barged in

Even though he had his face down in the papers, I could see his le Oh he knehat this was about, and he’d been looking forward to this dispute "Training session not go well?"

"You think you’re being clever? You think it’s funny?"

"Sorry, Say aroundthe papers fro to you"
