[VIMH] 36 - Forget the past.
"What were your findings?"

"X5-493 has been classified as mildly psychotic Sir."

"Can he been salvaged?"

"Yes Colonel Lydecker. Psy-Ops should fix him."

"Do it."

"Yes Sir. If it does not work Sir?"

"Then we harvest his organs and terminate the subject."

"Yes Sir."

Ben paced the room they had him in, he didn't want to be here. He hadn't wanted to go back and now here he was in the basement with the other Nomlies. He could hear them as they spoke. His brows creased at the words mildly psychotic. So he was really crazy but only mildly so? He shook his head not understanding them. How could that be? He didn't think he was crazy at all. He was doing what they trained him to do. They wanted him to be a predator, a hunter, a soldier. Now it seemed as if that was wrong. He frowned at that and gave a frustrated growl. He tried so hard to be a good soldier and now they were saying he failed.

Maybe Max had been right, maybe everyone was right. Maybe he was just broken, maybe he should be put down. A deep growl sounded from inside, no he wouldn't let them win. He'd play their games until he could get out then go and then he'd show Max he wasn't a Nomlie. He'd prove to everyone he was a good soldier.

That he wasn't a broken toy soldier.
