**RECAP**

Ethan: "Wait! Is this what I think it is? A blacksmith room?!?!?!"

Tayko: "Damn right it is!"

Everyone jumps

Luke: "Where the hell did you even come from"

Tayko: "I was following you guys the whole time."

Andy: "That's definitely not something I'd want to hear from you"

Tayko: "What you trying to say Andy?"

Andy: "Oh nothing, anyways introduce yourself one more time Tayko"

Tayko whispers "piece of shit" under his breath

Tayko: "Alright guys as you know from like 2 minutes ago, I am the interrogator, BUT I am also Tek City Police Departments Blacksmith. I can create any custom weapon you want"

Ethan: "REALLY?!?!?"

Tayko: "Yes I can, you name it, I build it."

Alex: "You're the only blacksmith?"

Tayko: "I'm the best there is so I'm all you guys need"

Andy: "And all of you guys first task is to request your first weapon, describe it exactly how you want and Tayko will create it."

Everyone seems to be visibly excited but Ethan is EXTREMELY ecstatic

Chapter 19

Tayko: "So who's first?"

Ethan and Luke: "ME!"

Ethan: "I'm going first"

Luke: "I don't think so"

Ethan and Luke start arguing

Tayko: "How about you" looking at Gale

Gale: "M-m-me?"

Tayko: "Yeah! Come on in"

Gale walks into Tayko's "Creation Room"

Tayko: "I call this the creation room , just tell me what kind of weapon you want , and I can build it, take this" Tayko hands over a pamphlet of example weapons he's built before along with the materials

Gale: "W-w-what's this " u-u-unique magnet"?"

Tayko: "The "Unique Magnet" is something that was discovered years ago i'm sure you've heard about it , but it's rare because only government jobs such as the police , scientists , and the government themselves have access to them. Pretty much we've found a way to alter magnetic fields to only match certain metals , so if I were to take one of these Unique Magnets and put it on this metal table , it wouldn't attract , but if I put it on the weapon it was assigned to, it attracts just like that.

Gale: " T-t-that's cool"

Tayko:"But against certain metals naturally , it'll repel no matter what like copper , silver , gold etc."

Gale:"T-t-that makes s-s-sense"

Tayko: "So do you have any ideas?"

Gale flips through the pamphlet some more and finally decides

Gale: "Y-y-yes I d-d-do"

Tayko invites everyone else into the creation room separately and jots all their weapon ideas down

*After the final person gave their weapon suggestion*

Tayko: "Mark my words , all of your weapons will be done by tomorrow"

Andy: "Alright, let's let him focus , finally come to the head office , we're going to assign you all teams

Everybody walks to the Head Office

Abel: "Hello everyone"

Everyone:" Greetings sir!"

Abel: "You can call me Captain Don, you may remember me from your entry competition , but if you forgot, I'm the head of everything here , the Head of Tek City Police Department. I trust you all want better for this city and following that note I'll be assigning you all a partner based off of your entry competition results"

*Phone rings*

Abel: "I have to answer this , Andy can you assign their teams for me please?"

Abel hands Andy a paper and everyone walks out the head room

Andy: "First team, Luke. You will be partnered with Nisha

Second Team, Gale. You will be with Hakeem

Third team , Ethan. You'll be paired with a senior "Ashton Don" , he's not here right now but you'll meet him when he gets back from his mission"

Ethan: "Ashton...Don? Is he related to-"

Andy: "Yes, he's the boss's son. He's been here for a little while and he's not that much older than you lot"

Ethan: "I am excited to meet him!"

Andy: "The final team, Alex. You will be paired up with the senior Gill"

Gale's eyes open wide

Alex: *Gill? Isn't that the name Gale told me?* Alex thinks to himself

Andy: "Gill is using his time off to take care of some personal matters but he should be back tomorrow"

Alex: "is there any reason why two of us are on a team with seniors unlike the rest ?"

Andy: "You're sharp, well it's because after evaluating your guys performances we believe that you guys are good enough to hang with the seniors"

Alex: "I see"

*Bullshit, Gale was just as valuable as me in that competition, probably even better . What's their motive? And why is that Hakeem guy even here? He did absolutely terrible on the entry competition. Everything about this is fishy * Alex thinks to himself

Andy: "Well if you guys would like to stay and explore a bit , by any means please do so. If not you all can go home until tomorrow, that's when your weapons should be complete. Later"

Andy walks away

Alex goes up to Gale

Alex:"This is our chance"

Gale:"Yes I can finally see my brother."

Nisha: "Talking to your crush again?"

Gale runs away

Gale: "H-h-he's not my c-c-crush!!!"

Nisha: "Look at you, you're scaring the ladies away with that gaze man"

Alex:"Quit playing around, we're in a serious environment right now"

Nisha: "I didn't think she'd like the serious boys , see you later!"

Nisha walks away

Ethan and Luke walk up to Alex

Luke: "So what do you guys want to do today? Burger palace??"

Ethan: "You always want burgers , can't we go bowling or something?"

Alex: "You think they'll let us in the record room?"

Ethan: "Only one way to find out"

Alex: "You're right bust in th-"

Ethan: "To ask!"

Alex: "That too"

Luke: "So no burgers?"

Alex and Ethan walk ahead of Luke looking for Andy , but they can't find him

They over hear his voice in the Head room

Andy:"But we can't do it like tha-"

Hakeem: "Hey guys! I thought I'd introduce myself to the fellow recruits "

Ethan:"Greetings"

Luke: "Sup dude"

Alex: "What are you doing here?"

Hakeem: "I wanted to ask Andy a question but I couldn't find him so I came here"

Alex: "What'd you want to ask him?"

Hakeem: "it's kinda personal"

Alex: "Well it seems the seniors are all out today , maybe we can just ask our question's tomorrow"

Hakeem: "Fair. You guys doing anything?"

Ethan: "we're going bowling"

Luke: "we're going to burger palace!"

Alex: "We never agreed to either one yet"

Ethan and Luke: "Fine"

Hakeem: "You guys are funny, but I do have coupons for bowling, way cheaper tickets"

Luke: "BOWLING IT IS! TICKETS ON... what's your name again?"

Hakeem: "Hakeem" He says and laughs

Luke:"TICKETS ON HAKEEM"

Hakeem: "Let's go then, you coming Alex?"

Alex: "Yeah just give me a couple minutes I need to go see something"

Ethan: "We will wait for you there"

Alex: "No problem"

Alex walks to the record room

Alex: "Maybe I can find out who did it. Who killed my father"
