"Who's that?"

"He's so mean looking..."

"That guy looks pissed..."

"Oh please, he's always like that."

"Is that the new general...?"

"Oh no..."

"I think it is!"

"But he's so angry looking!"

"I don't want him as our general..."

The cadets and senior soldiers stood together in a big group around one of the lunch tables. A couple of them still sitting struggled to see over the others heads and sneak a peak at the new general.

A scrawnier boy was pushed forward from the group and stumbled in front of the broad shouldered man with a steely bright blue gaze.

He tugged on his short brown hair, blue eyes blinking up at the bigger man.

"A-are you the n-new general sir?" He stuttered.

"Yes." Sioux moved his gaze to the group of onlooking soldiers and frowned, "Did they force you to approach me?"

The small boy smiled timidly and nodded slowly.

"Yeah..."

Sioux raised an eyebrow.

"That was rude of them. At least I know who the bravest soldier is."

The small boy tilted his head.

"What do you mean sir- er, I mean, General."

"Half those boys would have pissed themselves by now." Sioux stated, voice flat, portraying no emotion.

"Oh." The younger boy smiled, warming up to the new official, "Can I ask what your name is general?"

Sioux stared at the smaller boy, shoulders relaxed for once.

"General Sioux."

"Oh, well i'm Cadet James. Cadet James Carter." The boy, James, offered.

Sioux sat down at a nearby table, motioning for the kid to sit.

In all honesty, James wasn't that young. He was 17.

Compared to Sioux though, he was younger.

James sat without hesitation.

"You remind me of someone I knew once." Sioux sighed, staring at the smaller male.

"Really? Who?" James eagerly asked, blinking curiously at Sioux.

"Me..."

--Snake's POV--

5 Years Earlier...

((This parts a little confusing so here:

1 Snake telling the story

2 Snake's thoughts at the time

3 The actually story

That help at all?))

"Hahaha, wow, they let that kid into the army?"

I was such a small teen...

"This is pathetic..."

That year, I was one of the new soldiers graduating from training...

"What happened to all the strong soldiers like last year?"
