Oliver sighed, glancing at his watch. He was ten minutes late, again. And he was still twenty minutes away from Franklin Avenue. The big guy was going to kill him this time, he knew it. And in the APS, when a member says the boss is going to kill them, they mean it literally eight times out of ten. The other two times they suffer a horrible torture first. He strolled down the city streets, searching for the subway the whole time. If he was going to be late anyways, why rush?
He eventually happened upon the subway and took it to Franklin Avenue, arriving within five minutes. The problem was not the trip, but the intense security protocols. The Franklin Avenue Building, a warehouse that was (appropriately) the only building on it's small street seemed normal enough. Housed within it though, was the greatest secret in human history. The American Paranormal Society, protecting the nation from the supernatural for 210 years. And what a joy it was to participate in it.
He soon arrived, and after kissing the secretary's ass, he was able to get his new assignment despite the delay. It was simply a black manila envelope containing some papers, but it apparently took A LOT of work and bureaucracy to acquire it. So they would have you believe anyways. Oliver found a bench outside the warehouse and searched through the files, discovering that three out of the seven papers were a list of students. Strange. Another two pages were procedures, another was a recommended weapons list, and way in the back was yes! The mission itself. The description read as follows:
This is a training mission. You are to lead a recruit of your choice from this list into battle against a tame mega lizard that has been set lose in a contained set made to look like a mountain town. The trainee believes this mission to be genuine.
He sighed. He hated training missions, especially against the Godzilla-esque mega lizards. Any idiot who had seen a monster movie knew how to bring one down, especially when everything has been set up for them. He sighed again and began scanning the recruit list.
