  Ends on that

  /////////////////Dread-Head\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\

  (Opens on Maria and Constantine watching over to the new recruits as they are about to commence one of their exercises)

  Maria- So these are the new recruits?

  Constantine- Yes Ms. Maria

  Maria- Well then I hope your prepared for the challenges that are ahead of you

  ?- Well

  (The man looks up as he bows to Maria)

  Shadow Cult member- I’m sure were prepared enough for this

  Maria- Oh we’ve got a ballsy one here I better not see you lacking behind, What is your name cadet?

  Oswin (SC)- Oswin

  Maria- No last name?

  Oswin (SC)- No I was orphaned by my pa-

  Maria- Shut up, I didn’t ask for your fuckin’ backstory, just your name

  Oswin (SC)- *in head/blankly glaring at Maria* Die

  (A/n- “SC” Shadow Cult)

  Maria- *looks around/in head* Looks like there are a lot of “denizen” candidates this time around *looks over to Constantine* How many candidates do we have this year?

  Constantine- *looks on a tablet* 120 miss

  Maria- *peers back over to the candidates* Nice even number I see, and how many of those are “denizens”?

  Constantine- *scrolls on tablet* 87

  Maria- *rubbing chin* Hmm quite a lot we have here, alright then *walks over to a chair* let’s start the first exercises

  Constantine- RIGHT!!! *reading a clipboard* Alright maggots I want you to separate into 3 groups: Melees, Rangers and enhancers *pointing in 3 spots from left to right*

  (All of the candidates separate into the 3 groups mentioned before; 53 melee, 45 rangers and 21 enhanced)

  Constantine- Then I shall present your warrant officers *swipes up on her tablet as 3 people in modified conduct guard uniforms walk out to the yard* Constantine- First is Officer Qwaelik *a fairly tall, black hair in a ponytail, brown eyed, with olive skin man waves over to the candidates*

  Constantine- Next is Officer Jazmine *a average height, long blond haired, green eyed with pale skin waves over to the candidates*

  Constantine- Lastly is Officer Dre *a shorter, spiky white haired, red eyed, brown skinned man with a glare on his face just stares at the candidates*

  Constantine- Melees go with Officer Qwaelik, Rangers go with Officer Gordon and Enhancers go with Officer Dre

  Oswin- *in head* Looks like we’ll get divided but It’s good that we brought this many personnel, we’ll be able to be anywhere in the camp

  (A/N- There is a total of 27 Shadow Cult personnel; 5 enhanced including Oswin, 13 rangers and 9 melees)

  Oswin- *in head* This will be a long mission hopefully without any hiccups it will go well

  [Flashback:

  (Rever is torturing another Windholm conduct guard by walking on his chest with sharp short spiked cleats with Ragon and Oswin watching; after a little while and breaking the guard’s rib he gets the information he needs from him)

  Rever- *nonchalantly* Come on just tell me something useful and all this pain can be subsided

  W.C.G.- *clenching teeth* I GIVE I GIVE

  Rever- Is that right *hops off of his chest* Ready to talk now?

  W.C.G.- YES YES

  Rever- Alright then spit

  W.C.G.- *hurried and scared* T-There will be a recruiting of new personnel at the “Gold District” because of the many disappearances

  Rever- *in head* Looks like our constant interrogations have opened up an opportunity

  W.C.G.- *worried* I-Is that g-good?

  Rever- When will these recruitments be commenced?

  W.C.G.- *heavy breathing* I-I’m not sure b-but I know it will be s-soon

  Rever- Is that all you have?

  W.C.G.- *not liking the change in atmosphere* Y-Yes

  Rever- Then were done *smiling*

  W.C.G.- *unsettled smile*

  (Rever then cuts off the man head; surprising Oswin and causing Ragon to sigh, Rever then Whistles and Cerberus comes along)

  Rever- *picking up the guard’s head* C’mere boy, c’mere

  (Cerberus goes over to Rever as he throws the head into the air and Cerberus catching it)

  Ragon- So there goes another and what do plan on doing with that information, my lord?

  Rever- *finishes petting Cerberus* Remember the plan that Marinko thought of?

  Ragon- *thinks for a bit but then pieces it together* Seems like a prime opportunity to implement some bugs into their security

  Rever- Exactly and Oswin here will be the leader of this little infiltration

  (Oswin looks surprised and nervous as he gets pointed at by Rever and as Rever walks over to him)

  Rever- *to Oswin* Come with me son *walks out of the torture chamber*

  Ragon gather 26 other low rank soldiers at random*

  Ragon- Yes my lord

  (After a while Rever, Ragon, Cerberus, Marinko and Oswin are in the throne room as there are the 26 candidates that Rever had requested; 14 being male and 12 being female)

  Rever- *sitting cross legged on his throne I’m surprised Ragon, you managed to find them all in a day

  Ragon- *bowing* Thank you but you shouldn’t underestimate me my lord

  The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation.

  Rever- I’ll remember that, now then *stands up* LISTEN HERE ALL YOU LOWLIFES YOU HAVE BEEN SELECTED FOR AN IMPORTANT AND DANGEROUS MISSION YOU WILL BE TASKED TO INFILTRATE THE WINDHOLM ARMY AND WEAKEN THEM FROM THE INSIDE YOU WILL BE TRAINING FOR TWO MONTHS BY MARINKO HERE AS SHE WAS THE ONE TO COME UP WITH THIS PLAN ALL WHO OBJECT RAISE YOUR HAND

  (It’s quiet in the room but someone raises their hand)

  Rever- *glares but turns into a smile* WHAT IS YOUR NAME GOOD SIR?

  Dylan- Dylan

  Rever- NICE TO MEET YOU DYLAN AND WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY?

  Dylan- What about those that don’t want to be in this?

  Rever- *fake smile walking over to Dylan* WELL FOR THOSE THAT DON’T WANT TO TAKE THIS OPPORTUNITY *makes a yelling gesture with his hand* OH CERBERUS

  (Cerberus wakes up from beside the throne and walks over to Rever)

  Rever- ALL WHO OBJECT SHALL BE A NEW MEAL FOR GOOD CERBERUS HERE *PETTING CERBERUS* BUT I WILL ASK YOU WHICH WAY WOULD YOU LIKE TO GO *grabs Dylan’s head and stares in his eyes* Would you like to be eaten whole or bit by bit? So do you still object

  (Dylan shakes his head no)

  Rever- *pushes Dylan down* GOOD THEN SO DOES ANYONE ELSE HAVE ANY OBJECTIONS

  (No one makes a sound)

  Rever- THAT’S WHAT I LIKE TO HEAR NOW YOUR LEADER WILL BE THIS BOY HERE *gestures to Oswin* THIS IS OSWIN AND YOU’LL LISTEN TO HIM AS HE REPORTS DIRECTLY TO MARINKO WHO REPORTS DIRECTLY TO ME SO BE GOOD LOWLIFES AND DON’T FUCK THIS UP; ARE WE UNDERSTOOOD?

  (No response)

  Rever- GOOD AND DON’T WORRY SINCE I’M SO COMPASSIONATE IF YOU COMPLETE THIS MISSION YOU WILL BE DULY COMPENSATED FOR THIS SO DO YOUR BEST AND NOW I WILL LEAVE YOU TO MARINKO

  Marinko- Alright everyone you have heard lord Rever’s orders let’s move out

  (A montage of training happens as the 27 "Lowlifes” go through grueling training to become the best espionage infiltrators then fast forward to them done with said training)

  Marinko- *standing in front of all her soldiers* NOW THAT YOU ALL HAVE BEEN TRAINED YOU WILL GO INTO THE “BRONZE DISTRICT” AND ACT AS NORMAL CITIZENS AND GET INTO THE ARMY *glaring* DO NOT BLOW YOUR COVER, AM I CLEAR!

  (No one speaks)

  Marinko- I would like to hear a “Yes Ma’am”

  All 27 Lowlifes- YES MA’AM!

  Marinko- THAT’S WHAT I LIKE TO HEAR, NOW GO AND MAKE ME PROUD YOU “LOWLIFES”!

  (Montage of the “Lowlifes” blending into the slums and being apprehended by the Windholm conduct guards for showing their crux abilities out in the open)

  W.C.G.- Man who knew it was this easy we’ve scored with this many this year

  W.C.G. 2- They’re expendable anyway so we can get as many as needed for the future if need be

  (All of the “Lowlifes” then get admitted as their abilities get documented by examiners, their names registered and their physical attributes recorded and then they end up in front of Maria)

  End Flashback]

  (After that we end up back in the Windholm training camp as Oswin is being led with all the other 21 enhanced soldiers being taught by Officer Dre)

  Officer Dre- Ok all you cocksuckers let’s do this, *looking on his list* We will be doing an hour long meditation, if I catch any of you fuckers sleeping, you will be forced to do a handstand for the remainder of the time am I clear

  All- YES SIR!

  (The meditation begins and after 20 minutes a few of the candidates start to fall asleep and thus Dre then proceeds to use his enhanced ability to wake them up by using levitation and picking them up and slamming them a little hard on the ground waking them up and startling the other candidates)

  Dre- *talking with his eyes closed* Everyone else keep at it, you have 28 minutes and 39 seconds left, and to those who thought they could get away with taking a nap during this time, what did I say about falling asleep?

  (No one says anything since they’re all drowsy from the surprise awakening)

  Dre- *expectant* Huh?

  ?- *groaning* That we would have to handstand for the rest of the time?

  Dre- Corrrrrrrrect, so to the wall you go or *opens his glowing eyes to a glare* do I have to help you

  (The drowsy candidates hurry the wall and start doing handstands for the next 25 minutes and 10 seconds)

  Oswin- *sigh* This is gonna be a long one

  (Cut over to the Rangers group with Officer Gordon)

  Officer Gordon- Everyone listen up we will commencing target practice drills starting today you will, at random, be forced to shoot a target of my choosing and I expect accuracy after these practice exercises

  (She then goes to the side of the candidates)

  Gordon- NOW I WANT 5 OF YOU TO LINE UP RIGHT HERE *gesturing to a spot next to her* CONJURE YOUR GUNS AND OPEN FIRE AT THAT TARGET BOARD ONE BY ONE WHEN I CALL YOU UP I WANT YOU TO TELL ME YOUR NAME AND YOUR GUN TYPE, THEN ON MY MARK YOU WILL SHOOT AND BE SEATED OVER THERE *points to a spot near the wall* WHEN YOUR DONE ALRIGHT FIRST UP!

  (A man walks up next to her and conjures his gun which is an M9)

  Gordon- NAME!?

  Irvin- IRVIN BROYAK!

  Gordon- GUN TYPE!?

  Irvin- PISTOL!

  Gordon- OK THEN, TAKE AIM AND SHOOT!

  (Irvin fires a shot into a target a good 25 m {82.02 ft.} away from him hitting the second ring from the center)

  Gordon- Looks like we got an accurate shot here

  Irvin- Thank you miss

  Gordon- NEXT!

  (Another man comes up looking nervous as he tries to conjure his gun)

  Gordon- NAME!?

  Reese- Reese Mclam

  Gordon- I CAN’T HEAR YOU

  Reese- *not very confident* REESE MCLAM!

  Gordon- THATS MORE LIKE IT AND WHAT IS YOUR GUN TYPE!

  Reese- Well it’s not really a gun

  Gordon- SPEAK LOUDER MAGGOT

  Reese- IT’S NOT REALLY A GUN!

  Gordon- THEN WHAT IS IT?!

  (Reese tries to conjure up his weapon and it finally appears as a bow & arrow which in intrigues Gordon)

  Gordon- *rubbing chin* Interesting, quite primitive I’d say

  Reese- *sigh* I know *takes aim*

  Gordon- ALRIGHT THEN, TAKE AIM AND SHOOT

  (Reese then shoots and hit the 3rd ring from the outside)

  Gordon- Looks like you’ll need some training, NEXT!

  (As Reese walks over to sit with Irvin a female Shadow Cult member comes up and conjures her gun which is an M416)

  Gordon- NAME!?

  Sally (SC)- SALLY POKREN!

  Gordon- GUN TYPE?!

  Sally (SC)- MACHINE!

  Gordon- ALRIGHT THEN, TAKE AIM, SHOOT

  (Sally then shoots the target and hits a bullseye)

  Gordon- WELL WELL, LOOKS LIKE WE GOT A SHARP SHOOTER HERE YOU THINK YOUR BIG STUFF?

  Sally- NO MA’AM

  Gordon- ALRIGHT THEN SIT OVER THERE *points to where Irvin and Reese are sitting* NEXT?!

  Sally- *in head* Maybe I shouldn’t have stood out

  (Cut over to the Melees group with Officer Qwaelik)

  Qwaelik- Alright maggots you will be doing a physicality test so we will start with sprints until failure; alright everyone into position *plays an audio file of the sprinting test announcer*

  Audio file- *monotone/robotic voice* The Windholm Sprinting Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that starts to become more strenuous as it prolongs. The 50 meter sprinting test will begin in 1 minute. Line up at the start. The run speed begins at a steady pace but gets more hurried and rushed each minute after you hear this auditory stimuli *whistling/do do do doot do*. You are expected to finish a single lap every time this auditory stimulus is played *whistling/do do do doot do*. Remember to run in a straight linear direction and run as long as humanly possible. The second time you fail to conclude a lap before the auditory stimulus rings out, your test will end and your score shall be recorded by your warrant officer. The test will start on the word “begin”. On your marks. Get set!…BEGIN. *whistling “do do do doot do”*

  (Two of the candidates start sprinting, a boy and a girl, to the end of the field and the audio stimulus rings and they go back this happens over and over until the girl loses and Qwaelik documents her results)

  Qwaelik- *scribbles on his list* Alright 50 laps

  (And soon the man also loses and Dre documents his results as well)

  Qwaelik- *scribbles on his list* 59 laps alright next

  (Some of the shadow cult members are talking to each other about the next step in their mission)

  S.C. Member- When is the next stage of this plan

  S.C. Member 2- Look dumbass we just started this mission and we can’t act on our own without the captain’s orders

  S.C. Member- *glancing around* I know that but I’m just nervous, the longer we stay here the sooner we get found out

  S.C. Member 3- John just calm down and stay, don’t stand out and don’t blow your cover

  ?- What are you guys talking about

  (A guy with short red/black hair, tired eyes and a silver earring comes over and sits with them)

  S.C. Member- Oh just back home

  ?- *sitting down criss cross* Oh I hear that man, I miss my family

  S.C. Member- We just miss the old days of our youth and such

  ?- That’s the truth right there, I was living with my mom and dad and I was about to have a new baby sister but then I was showing my ability to my friends, got caught and ended up here; what about you guys?

  (The Shadow Cult members all look at each other and accepted them talking to the man about it)

  S.C. Member- We basically did the same thing but someone ratted us out and we all got shipped here

  (The man looks at the ground and then looks back up to them)

  ?- If we make it out of here as guards wanna go back and find the asshole that ratted you out, because we have an unwritten rule in the slums “If you get caught that’s on you but if you snitch then you life is threw” you’d know right

  S.C. Member- *nervous lying* Yeah we know and sure we’d like to get payback

  ?- That’s good man *holds out his hand for a handshake*

  (The S.C. member and the man shake hands and exchanges names)

  ?- What’s your name man

  Yogu- Yogu Brixton, what's yours?

  Wade- Wade Qwin, nice to meecha Yogu, interestin’ name ya got there

  (Ends there)
