master? They're all failures!"


"They're just badly trained. From this point of view, I wonder why I haven't dumped Chucta myself a long time ago, but now it benefits me. I'm curious what Maiju will do with his old command! Zarbon, you inform me me Maiju and her future command that they should come here tomorrow morning! "


Zarbon saluted "Yes, Master!" and marched away.




“Why is that?” Maiju stood in her cabin, armor in hand, and looked at Zarbon crookedly.


"You'll find out tomorrow! It's a surprise!"


"Kind head!"


Zarbon raised his arms in a what-should-you-do-there-gesture, said: "So see you tomorrow! I'm looking forward to your face!" and disappeared.


Maiju looked after him, puzzled. Then she shrugged and tossed the heavy tank into a corner.Tore the red ribbon, Turnus' command signal, from her arm and tore it into small pieces, which she then burned in the cupped hand.


Afterwards she slipped out through the porthole. Jeice didn't meet her outside, but even without him she had a nice day in the forest, which she roamed in previously unknown places. She only came back late when it was outside


it was the dead of night.


She didn't sleep, but lay awake all night, and the next morning she jumped up wide awake and crept through the whole headquarters to kill the time until she had to salute again in front of Freezer.


Fully equipped, she appeared in the audience room, as always when she was impatient, much too early. She couldn't fidget in front of Freezer; so she forced herself to calm down, although she was almost exhausted with impatience and tension. She was afraid that he would actually give her the command of a command, but then she would be pissed off - she did not want to take this responsibility at any price.

Freezer saw her restlessness and smiled to himself. Zarbon and Dodoria grinned quite openly.


The Chucta command took its time. They didn't show up until a quarter of an hour later than agreed.


The first to walk into the room was a plump guy with a skin color somewhere between yellow and muddy brown. His colleagues followed in a relaxed manner. Except for the last rattling thin and with big, frightened eyes, he hardly dared to go through the door.


Maiju was surprised to find Ti'aLan in the commando, who was now a good two meters tall, still thin and lanky, but clearly better muscled. His fighting strength against it ... She also checked that of his colleagues and found them too low for an elite commando. What could only mean- Oh, shit!


Her suspicions became a certainty. Freezer actually wanted her to lead the command.


As if he had read her mind, he suddenly said: "Of course, Maiju!From now on you are captain of your own command! "


Maiju stared at him in amazement.


> But .. I can't! I can't take responsibility, I ... I can't give orders to my old friend Ti'aLan!

"What ?! Guys, tell me I misheard!" protested a green guy from the back row, not very quietly. "The girl as captain! She's only ten! I won't let a child lead me!"


That also seemed to be the opinion of the others - except for Ti'aLan maybe - but nevertheless they gave the speaker nervous glances and moved noticeably away from him.


He realized too late that he had made a fatal mistake. Maiju was often thought to be weak because she was a girl and she hated these prejudices. Everyone who had come to her like this had immediately found out that she was by no means weak and could say of happiness whoever was still alive afterwards.

She didn't like this guy anyway, he looked too much like rioters, she absolutely couldn't need that.


With a nasty smile she stepped up to him: "So, you don't trust me to keep piles of washcloths under control? Big mistake! Your last!" Loaded a kiball in front of her chest, which she was in horrified face shot, the others hurriedly jumped to the side.


An explosion that shook the room. When the smoke cleared, the rest of the crew stared in horror at the black soot on the floor.


"Oh shit!" gasped the guy Maiju almost shaved off with, his steel-gray eyes with yellow pupils widened in shock.


"Had to come like this ... I've always told Yeng not to always open his mouth that wide!" Ti'aLan noted when he had recovered enough to speak.


Maiju waited a few moments to let the shock take effect a bit, then turned to the six remaining members of the command: "Anyone else who wants to moan?Don't force yourselves, I'll listen to you! "


General retreat.


"Well, what is it? Doesn't anyone have any wishes, suggestions or suggestions?"


Silence.


"Now don't be so shy! I haven't eaten one yet!" At this remark she had to suppress a grin. Not eaten ...


"Okay!" she announced happily- the drought winced- "If nobody wants to give their opinion, then I suggest you leave and in a quarter of an hour we will all meet in the training rooms! And bye!" With a wave of the hand Maiju made it clear, that they were allowed to go. The commando rushed away, but was whistled back at the door again: "Oh yes, and ... see that you show up in your training tank!"


An intimidated polyphonic "Yes, Captain!". And all of a sudden there were only Maiju, Freezer, Zarbon and Dodoria in the audience room.


"That was good, Maiju! Now you know who is ahead!Keep up the good work, captain! "Praised Freezer.


“What you can rely on, master!” Maiju bowed and wanted to leave the room, but-


"Wait a minute! Since you are now captain, you should also get the corresponding pay, and not just pocket money. From now on you will get eighty hon, if I am satisfied with your performance, I will increase it again! And now go!"


Maiju bowed again: "Thank you, master!"




In her cabin she swapped the operational tank for the training tank. Strangely enough, she was suddenly determined to make her command one of the best that Freezer had ever been under. She attributed this to Yeng's criticism. 'She's only ten ...' That might be true, but she was by no means weak, and she would get her command under control.


> My command! I'll have to get used to the idea! <




When her soldiers in training tanks showed up at the agreed meeting point - this time on time - she had to resist laughing with all her might.Apparently none of them had worn a training tank since joining the command.


The fat man probably got his when his waist was not even half its current size, and the result looked strange. As a counterpart to this, the thin one, which made a very squashed impression with the heavy tank. Ti'aLan tried hard to be as nonchalant as possible, although he obviously felt out of place. Likewise the other three, who moved clearly inhibited.


"Okay!" Maiju finally said when she was sure that she could speak without laughing. "Maybe you'd best tell me your names first and I'll try to remember them. So ..." She pointed to whoever was closest to her, the one with the strange gray eyes.


"Chun."


"Ti'aLan." Maiju nodded.


"I know."


The fat eyed her as if he was wondering if she was worth an answer before he said, "Dingo."

"Rioters are being put out of the way, so be careful dingo!" Maiju warned softly. She didn't like his look at all.
