"The armor is finally complete master. I think we're ready to tell the public." said Jedon Udeon a scientist. "Not yet Udeon, not yet." replied a mysterious figure in a black coat. "We need to test it first." crackled the man. "Yes sir, I'll get the team." replied Udeon.

The team was a ragtag group of military officers who had signed up for this special special project. Each man grinned as he put on his Dragon Squad uniform. They stepped over to the weapons rack suited up in the experimental gear. They stepped out towards the obstacle course, and the scientist turned it on.

"Test One: Armor." shouted the computerized voice. Small bullets that the police used were fired at the armor. "Test passed." said the voice. "Test: One Armor, Level 2." said the voice. Bullets that were a little bigger were fired. "Final Armor test." said the voice. The smallest military bullets were now fired. Only one bullet was able to puncture the armor out of chance. For purposes of the test, all soldiers were currently wearing bullet-proof vests under their armor, so the man survived.

"Test Two: Weaponry." 80 targets were flung up, 10 for each officer. The main weapon, an AM-90 assault rifle was mounted on top of their dominant arm(two men were left-handed). Under their dominant arm was a handle-less Rapidfire K-60. On their other arm was a flamethrower. The first five targets were to be shot down using the assault rifle, the next four were to be shot down using the Rapidfire, and the last one was to be burnt up by the flame thrower. All ten targets were down in about 20 seconds. The next part of the test had another ten targets that moved. These targets were shot down in about 30 seconds. It was looking good for the squad.

"Test Three: Maneuverability." said the voice. The men had to run a small track in less then 40 seconds to pass. They did.


Six Months Later


All the news stations were broadcasting about the new Dragon Squad(named after the flame thrower.) or D-Squad for short. The news had some mixed information, there was just enough truth in the press release for it not to be a secret project. The Northeast had really outdone itself this time.
