Oliver:Ready to go?

Lincoln:Yes I am.

Oliver:Good.Lets roll then.

Both of them entered Max's car.Before Oliver turned the car on Max tapped on window getting their attention.

Max:Try not to get into trouble ok?

Lincoln:No promises.

Max smirked in response while Oliver finally turned car on.

Oliver:I will get him back in one piece.

Max:You better be.

Both Oliver and Lincoln drove away.
While he was driving Lincoln broke the silence.

Lincoln:So Oliver how is life there in Australia?

Oliver:For me its good.I got what I need.

Lincoln:So is it true that your country is filled with dangerous animals?

Oliver:Well it depends where you live mate for me it was never a problem.I got poison placed in every hole so no muppet will ruin my day.

Lincoln chukled upon reciving his answer.

Oliver:So before this entire mess happend how was life 'ere?

Lincoln:It was good.Its mostly peaceful area you know.

Oliver:Hmnn Max made right choice then.

Lincoln:So this is your first tine in Royal Woods?

Oliver nodded as he continued driving towards the city.

Lincoln:What does it take to be a soldier?

That question shook Oliver up.He served in military for so long yet he was never asked this question.

Oliver:Well...it takes a lot kid.

Lincoln:Muscles?

Oliver:Nah.Muscles don't matter as much as you think.During training 90% of your training is running from point A to point B.The rest is your knowledge on combat.But then in combat you depend 50% on yourself and other 50% on your gun to function.You gotta be fit,smart and be mentally prepared for anything.

Lincoln:When you were deployed for the first time were you scared?

Oliver:A bit.When you get deployed you will return walking towards airport or you will be shipped in a container.But I managed to work it out and here I am.

Lincoln:For how long have you been knowing your friends?

Oliver:Around a decade.Met Tom at training with SAS,Jack and Max during a mission,Tom introduced me to Alex and Erik when he joined our unit.Keep in mind Im not allowed to tell you anything about it.Its classified information.

Lincoln:But you confesed that you and your friends were special forces?

Oliver:Yeah but we did it to calm you down.You went to some shi-I mean nasty stuff.

Lincoln:Oh thanks I guess...

Oliver:No need to thank us.We are just doing our jobs.

Lincoln:Oh and just one more question please?

Oliver:Hit it.

Lincoln:Can anybody including me become a soldier?

Upon hearing it Oliver chukled.

Oliver:As long you are determined...

He looked at Lincoln.

Oliver:You can.
