New Instructors

After they finished filling up their forms they were brought back to the hall.

When all of them were just standing in the hall in a straight line awkwardly, four people entered the hall. One was a woman and rest of them were men.

They were all in black outfits contrary to the uniforms of the guard's and the doctors which they were used to seeing all the time.

The woman was most likely a little older around in her fifties and was leading the three men.

As soon as they entered the hall, they went directly towards Mr. Rogers and Mrs. Miller.

They couldn't hear what that woman was saying to Mr. Rogers and Mrs. Miller but immediately after hearing what that woman had to say they went outside the hall.

Then the woman turned in their direction and started approaching them.

"Hello guys!"

Her voice definitely didn't match her face. It was super high and almost screeching when heard. No one even bothered to reply to her greeting and after a little pause she continued breaking the silence.

"I am your instructor and supervisor for the time period of your training. Me and the boys will individually take one of you under our wings and train you."

Cole and the others were still trying to absorb this new information when the woman spoke again.

"You are going to train her", she said pointing to Katie and one of the men she arrived with. Similarly, Henry and William both were assigned to the other two men.

"I am going to train you myself", she said to Cole.

"Training is going to start from tomorrow onwards so today there will only be a medical exam and you guys can leave for your dorms", she added further and left the hall after seeing Mr. Rogers and Mrs. Miller entering the hall with some doctors.

The doctors opened a room which was near the entrance of the hall and went inside with Mrs. Miller while Mr. Rogers walked towards them.

"You will have your medical exams in that room from now on so go to that room, Mrs. Miller is waiting for you", saying that he walked past them and entered a different room.

"Let's go." Henry said walking in that direction as no one took the initiative. After that all of them walked slowly following Henry.

"Come on guys take a sit there", Mrs. Miller said showing the half slanted chair like seats which are mostly used in dentist's place.

The room was long and those chairs were lined up back to back on one side. On the other side of the room, there were other medical equipments for check ups.

Without much questioning, William took the seat on the nearest chair. Following him all the others also sat down.

"Can you lift up your sleeves?", one of the medical examiners who was checking Cole asked him.

Cole lifted his sleeves and looked around the room. His friends were all getting checked and... and neither Mrs. Miller nor any guards were present there. He didn't even realize when Mrs. Miller left.

It was the first time that they were left alone with the doctors as usually guards are always present.

Cole thought it couldn't be better timing to ask some questions to the doctor.

"What are these tests being conducted for?", he started questioning the doctor with a simple question to test the waters.

"Oh, these tests only include simple blood tests", replied the doctor. "I think other complicated tests will be done tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

Cole had thought that the doctor would probably not answer his questions but surprisingly he answered.

Cole took his chance again and asked, "What is the purpose of these tests?"

The doctor who talked earlier answered him again, "These tests are simply for checking if there are improvements in your metabolism, physical strength and such."

When William realized what Cole was doing he also asked the doctor, "I haven't seen you here before. Have you been working here for long?"

"Yes, I have been pretty much working here ever before you were even born. I even saw you...", the doctor suddenly stopped talking when he saw Mrs. Miller entering the room.
