*In the combat arena at the Chimak Military base*

"Excuse me sir"Janet Whyte, one of the Soldiers, said.

"Yes, What is it?"asked Master Dwayne.

"Where are Alex, Kai, Sai, Ken and Mia?"replied Janet with a question.

"I sent them on a mission to deliver a message to a good friend of mine, who is powerful, that the demons are extending their territory into the human planets and I think earth is their next target, so we are going to need help in stopping them"Master Dwayne replied.

"But why can't you just send Alex and Kai, or even one of the soldiers, why send Sai, Ken and Mia along with them? And also why couldn't you just contact your friend with a communicator of some sort?"Janet asked.

"Are you in any way to question my decision?"Master Dwayne said angrily.

'I'm a bad liar' he thought to himself.

"No sir, like you said, the demons are extending their territory very fast so we are going to need them incase of any attacks"Janet replied.

"Yes I know, that is why I sent them along with Alex and Kai because we don't know if they are going to be attacked, so Sai, Ken and Mia will help them stop the demons on their way"said Master Dwayne.

"OK sir, I understand now"said Janet.

"Janet, let's go get ready for any demon creatures attack"said Lucas Whyte, the brother of Janet and captain of Janet's squad, who was eavesdropping on their conversation.

"No, I need the both of you to get back to training and equipping all the new soldiers-in-training, because you guys need to be experienced when fighting the demon creatures"Master Dwayne said.

"OK sir!"They both chorused.

'I need to speak to Dave to know how they are doing over there' thought Master Dwayne.

"Yes I should"said Master Dwayne silently as he left Janet and Lucas.

"But I'm still suspicious of Master Dwayne"Lucas said to his sister, Janet on their way to the training ground.

"I am suspicious too. It could be a lie because you can't send a squad on a mission to deliver a message to your friend and it would last for some months"replied Janet.

"Who does that?"Lucas said.

"We need to find out where they went to and see what mission they are carrying out"Said Janet.

"Don't worry, you know as one of the captains, I have an High rank, so I should be able to find out"Lucas said.

*** In Master Dwayne's office ***

Master Dwayne is seen on the phone speaking to his friend, commander Dave.

"Hello Dave, how are you and the kids doing?"asked Master Dwayne.

"We are all doing fine, but the kids are really amazing"replied Commander Dave.

"How?"Master Dwayne asked.

"Do you know that the two boys, Alex and Kai, took out a level 2 demon creature each with just one move..."Commander Dave said ".... I couldn't believe it, if not that their aura were showing signs of being in the 2nd level of the primary stage. It was even on their first day here.".

"I didn't think they would get this far in just a week"Master Dwayne said".... I would call you later, I have a call from the Military base headquarter".

"OK, I will send your greetings to them"Commander Dave said.

'This means they will come back alive, I have hope in then to turn the table in our favorite in this war' Master Dwayne thought after ending the call.
