"You are correct Breeze, Brice is dead. We are her in many ways. As the doctor explained it we are her clones. Her DNA gives us life. We have been here a long time now, as we grow we will be moved into other chambers. Then we will go through intensive training to learn how to protect those we are assigned too.<br/><br/>I have given it much thought as to my name. I choose Anastasia. It is Greek and means<i>One who will rise again</i>. In us, Brice will live again, except we will be better, stronger and more educated."<br/><br/>A door opened with a creaking sound there before them was the doctor and several others dressed in masks and strange clothing. Breeze and Anastasia were taken from the chamber they were in and placed in separate units. Wires were connected to their heads and a small recording device placed in each chamber. Their education was beginning. Both would receive the same information. Today's recording would be firearms and other weapons.<br/><br/>The doctor made sure both were as comfortable as possible. "All week you will receive new recordings. At the end of the week you will have a few days off then into another chamber to learn tactical skills. Time is short girls, we must finish soon, and then both of you will be sent to the University where you will meet your assignment, William Nautilus."<br/><br/>The next phase of training Anastasia found herself in a large area with many targets. Sitting on the shelf she was led to find a Glock 27. Instructions were given to shoot at the stationary targets then she was instructed to shoot only targets with a black ribbon attached. Most of them were moving targets. The following day she found herself being instructed in hand to hand combat with a master in self defense.<br/><br/>Daily for seven days she continued practiced using the skills she was taught and tested at the end of one week on every phase of protection and self defense. At no time was she in touch with Breeze who they separated at the beginning of the recorded sessions. The instructor told her the doctor would be in touch with  her soon. She was taken back to a room that looked similar to a room in someone's home. It had a sofa, chair and outdated magazines. Their were no windows and the door locked from the outside.
