"I am not late, am I?" Mark said as he removed his sunglasses.

"No. You didn't tell me about my father's sickness? You punk!" John bellowed.

"Father told me to never tell you. But still, I will let him go to surgery. It was a low chance to heal his wound but at least it was not zero percent." Mark said.

"I thought that he was okay! Since when?" John shouted.

"He was checked but it was just a cyst at first. When they examined it, it was cancer. Operating was the only option. We tried to chemotherapy him but the cancerous tumor has been only stopped.

"It stopped the spread of the cancer cells but it was not enough to eradicate it. He was healed recently but I hope that he will be fully healed if he undergoes surgery to remove the tumor. You didn't tire him out this day, right? Tell me he rested," Mark said.

"Well about that, um he played a bit with my son," John said to him.

"You what? There's a high chance of his surgery to open!" Mark shouted.

"It's okay son. I have recovered now but don't worry. I will rest a bit to recuperate. I need to teach my grandson about my learnings and it was my own choice.

"Don't worry I've rested a bit. For now, how about you join me for dinner? What do you want to eat?" Merlin said to him.

"Well, I want to eat first. I was just worried so I overreacted a bit. Maybe I was just hungry. So where's Roan? I need to teach him too! Can I? I heard that you teach him too right?" Mark said.

"Yeah, you can teach him all you want. Let's get inside first. How about a coffee? You want a coffee?" asked Merlin.

"Okay let's cool off for now. I thought there will be a war that will break out. We can talk after you sipped a coffee," said Merlin.

"We will be having a family reunion! Let's eat. I have brought you beef. What do you want it to be? How about a grilled steakhouse kebab with garlic butter? It will be delicious!" Mark said as he puts his shoulders on his brother.

"So we're okay now?" asked John.

"Nah! I won't be a thing to your martial arts older brother. How much martial arts will you teach to your child?" Mark said.

"As many as I can!" John said.

"Hahahahaha! You never cease to surprise me, brother. I can only teach him police training. But I bet father was what the best for him," Mark said.

"You mean his Ranger skills?" John asked him. Quite wondering what his reply would be.

"Yeah! He was like a Scout Ranger with his training. I am happy that he learns fast and doesn't break his mind after all that training," Mark said.

"Yeah, you are right!" John said.

They all went inside the wooden home of their father. The porch has lanterns and a rocking chair in it. They entered the living room with a brown couch in it.

Cling!

Sounded the door chime at the top of the door.

"I forgot about the beef. I will get it first," said Mark.

Mark brought his chilled beef and his ingredients. At the same time, Marlin exited his room.

"Uncle Mark! What took you so long?" Yuan asked.

"I went to the market first and brought beef. Let's grill it!" Mark said to him.

"Yeah!" Yuan said to him.

They immediately prepared the food. Mark defrost his beef. Yuan prepared the charcoal to grill the beef.

In their kitchen at the back of their house. With the charcoal started to have embers. Mark then prepared the ingredients.

Tanaka cooked rice and served the plates on hand. Mark skewered the meat that was alternated with baby potatoes and grilled it to the embers of the charcoal.

Pssshhhhhttttttt!

Sounded the skewered meat in the grilling stove. Marlin was fanning the flames in the stove. Mark was with his father and he taps his shoulders.

"So how is your work?" asked Merlin to Mark.

"It was pretty busy in the office. I am glad I had a day off,"

"Yeah. Just like the old days. I am one of the best scout rangers but I am an alcoholic. We always drank when we return home. It led to my liver cancer. So son, don't be like me. Your body was your only capital in this life. Don't harm it." Merlin said.

"Yeah, you are right," Mark said sadly.

Marlin was just listening to their talks and was fanning the grilled meat.

"I am really tense at work. But my co-workers are hard working. So I am relieved to see them. Some of our agents died and many police are slain by syndicates.

"Every police that dies are visited by me. And when I go to their funeral, I am blamed for their deaths. Some slapped me because I am putting them on missions that caused their deaths," he said.

"It was not your fault. Well, partly but it was not entirely. You as a head were a heavy burden that carries their lives.

"You are just doing your work and they do their job. It was normal for them to blame you because they lost a loved one. All you have to do was comfort them.", Merlin said.

Mark and John continued their talks and they finished grilling it.

"Let's eat!" Mark said.

Tanaka prepared the soy sauce and sliced the lemon then mixed it with the soy sauce. She prepared the rice and lets it cool on the table.

It was easier to eat it when the rice cooled down. They prepared the table and the grilled beef was cooked. Marlin brought the plate full of skewered meat and he smells the aroma of the meat.

The salt that was sprinkled itself made the flavor of the beef heighten and it made the umami flavor of the beef above the potato.

"Let's eat everybody!" Mark said.

They all sat at the chairs and they all ate together.

"Oh! It's yummy! The umami was just right when it was dipped into the soy sauce that was mixed with lemon. It will heighten the flavor of the meat!" Yuan said.

"So we will train again with firearms? I have brought you my licensed firearms. Don't worry I have it attached with silencers," Mark said to him then winked.

"I have Long Machine Gun, Assault Gun, Sub Machine gun, Sniper and Shotgun. I have night vision goggles on hand to lighten up the darkness," Mark said.

"Okay Uncle, I will be training with you later on. I am enjoying the food. I am pretty excited though," Marlin said.

"Hey, don't forget my martial arts that I will teach you later on," said John.

"Yeah yeah, but let me learn uncle Mark's first," Roan said.

"Okay, but I will make it harder for you if you will choose him first," John said.

"Bring it on!" Roan blurted out.

"Yeah don't cry later on," John said to him then he bites the skewered meat. They ate until they were full.

"Let me digest first, I am full," said Yuan as he rests a bit.

"I will arrange the firing range first. Let your food be digested for now," said Mark.

"Thanks!" Yuan then takes a nap.

He went to the firing range and he saw his uncle lining up the weapons.

"Here are your night vision goggles. Put it on first." Mark said then handed him the Long machine gun.

"It was called M4LMG, a long machine gun that has a big capacity with seventy-five bullets. Its strength was its bullet numbers and its range. Fire it to the targets," Mark said.

"Okay!" Yuan replied.

Marlin lifted the machine gun and aimed it at the targets. With the night vision goggles on his eyes, he saw the target was green. It was three circles and a dot in the center.

Prrrrrrrrrriiiiiiitttttttttt!!!

Sound of the gun with a silencer in it. Yuan then reloads it in one second.

"It all hit the mark! Very good! Now use the submachine gun and run while firing the targets," Mark instructed.

Immediately Yuan grabbed the PDW–57 and ran then fired the visible targets. It was muffled by the silencer and only the clanging metal was sounding.

"Was that good enough?" Yuan asked.

"You need to be faster to draw your weapon. The submachine guns were the ones that excelled at close combat. With its fast draw, fast firing speed, and fast reload speed.

"It will be the best in close range. Better use their strength to the fullest. Next was the assault gun. Have a try with the AK–47. I adjusted its attachments to be as accurate as possible. Go on try it," Mark said to him.

Yuan then grabbed the gun and it was lighter than the long machine gun he used earlier.

Yuan then aimed at the sight with a red dot sight. He fired it and hold it tight.

Chagachagachag!

It sounded like a proper gun. It was also silenced.

"The strength of the assault weapons was its accuracy and its range. You can shoot farther enemies with it as long as its recoil was at its lowest and it will be accurate," Mark said.

"Now the sniper. We have DL–Q33. It was extremely damaging compared to the faster firing rate ones," Mark said.

Yuan then grabbed the weapon and fired it at the target.

Phishiw!

Sounded the sniper. Yuan then reloaded and he was surprisingly agile.

"Good! Now the shotgun. Its strength was close attacks. Anyone can fire it but many were slow reloading it. Practice reloading it as fast as you could," Mark said.

"Yes!" Yuan said to him.

Click! Click! Click! Click! Click! Chokchuk!

Roan finished reloading.

"Good! You are fast enough to reload it but you need practice. Your performance is excellent and can rival the best police right now.

"But please don't tell this to anyone. It was not right to teach young ones to handle these guns. They say keep out of reach of children," Mark said then chuckled.

"Yeah, I won't tell anyone!" Yuan said cheerfully.

"Now go to your father because he is waiting for you," Mark said to him as he taps his shoulders.

"Yes, I will!" Yuan said.

He removes his night vision and jogs towards his father.

"Dad! I'm home!" Yuan shouted at him.

"I have been waiting! Wear your taekwondo uniform and I will teach you different martial arts!" John said.

"Okay, dad!" Yuan said to him.

I will warn you, It will be hard to beat me with sword skills," Daisuke said."Uncle! You're a cheater! You are a samurai but you learned ninja skills.

Let us not hasten his growth but build up his core," Harutobi said."The next training is to make him a proper ninja. You can train him himself if you want," Harutobi said to her."No, Daisuke was better in ninja skills. He can train him better," Tanaka said."If that is what you wish," said Harutobi.They continued to observe Yuan and Daisuke stopped his attacks."Okay, that's all for now. Let me rest a bit," Daisuke said."But uncle, I am not satisfied yet," Yuan said."Yes, we are finished. I used my fastest attacks and It was evaded so there's no use in prolonging it.

From the outside, it was a small building. But he was not expecting it to be big. He went inside and saw others like him. Also having the same uniform he has. Looking at them, he also saw that he was the smallest. He also saw that they have a robust physique. 'Gad damn! They are ripped!' Yuan shouted in his mind. "Do I need to be as robust as them? Hmm, but it doesn't feel the need to do so! I gotta exercise more!" Yuan said to himself. The instructor went inside with a cowboy hat and a brown uniform. He was like a sheriff in Yuan's eyes. Thinking about it, he was amazed by his broad shoulders and bigger upper body. His lower body was fit and compacted. He has Johny bravo vibes in him. "Now boys! You are all here to train! Grab that

They went fixing themselves up and washed in the shower room. While showering, he was washing off the dirt of his clothes. He was approached by a man and he was asked. "Are you a recruit?" he said in a manly voice. "Yes! What is it?" Yuan asked worriedly. "All recruits will have a meeting later on. You will be assigned to your teams. Good luck!" he said.

    The jeep was still running but there was gunfire heard in the front and back. Yuan puts his PUD in his pocket and observed the surroundings. At the back, he saw numerous zombies coming for them. Even though they were at a fast pace, some runners were now as fast as the jeep. "Chasers! They were able to chase the vehicles like it was easy," Benjamin said at his side.They were alerted and were now aware of the danger they were in. Some of them were now going to the front side of the jeep and were on edge. "We don't have a weapon right now?" asked Jude.Yuan opened the seat they have and to their surprise. It has a machine gun on it."Vector SS77! I love this!" Yuan shouted.He was heard by the soldier on the front seat and opened the window."Hey!
