"I can speak english Asshole."
He says, when looking at David.
"Watch your tongue Little Shit."David tells him, who then replies"Make me, Dickhead."
"Okay."David says and punches him in the face. David then shakes his hand a little, because the punch actually hurt him too. As for E-7 moves his jaw around a little, before looking back at David and then spitting the blood into his face.
"Ooh fuck this."David mutters, as he wipes the blood off of his face. After he finishes wiping, he takes out a roll of duct tape and then tapes E-7 mouth shut. E-7 just stares at David, without making any sound and he also is showing middle finger to him, with both of his hands.
David seeing this, grins and sits down on the chair, next to the bed. He looks at E-7 and says"Okay. I will now ask a few questions from you and you will answer them. Do you get it?"
He nods and David says"Good.", Before pulling the tape off of his mouth."Lets start with you name."
"Don't have one."He replies immediately.
"Okay. Date of birth?"
"Don't know."
"Age."
"Don't know."
"Nationality."
"Don't know."
David, seeing that he only answer "don't know.", Says"What the fuck do you know then?"
"I know that I want to punch you in the face as a revenge."E-7 told David, who looked back at him with a slightly surprised face. David then said"Well good luck with it."
There is a few seconds of silence, before E-7 says"Any question you ask, will be probably answered with: 'I don't fucking know'. So lets just get this over with and you can throw me in a cell or where ever the fuck you have decided."

"You seem quite calm, even though you know what will wait for you."David says.
"Because I don't give a shit what happens to me. I'll die it live through it. Both will work for me."E-7 replies to David.
"Hmm. I see. I guess we will wait then."David says and gets up from the chair. He then leaves the room, leaving E-7 alone again. As for E-7, he sighs and looks at the ceiling and shows middle finger.
In another room, a man in the suit is watching E-7 giving the camera the finger. He looks at the boy, through the screen, when David enters the room and says"He didn't lie, but he also didn't tell the truth."
"I see. Lets keep him here for a month and then decide, what to do with him. It's impossible for us to make someone like him, so we have to make him ours."The man in the suit says.
"Yeah. I don't believe that he will join us. He doesn't seem to hold a grudge against us, but his too...I can't think of a word to describe him."David says.
"Neither can I."the man says.
A month passed slowly for E-7, who could only move around the sealed room. He got two MRE's a day for him to eat and the ones he got, weren't the good ones either. So the only thing he could do in this room, to pass time, was to exercise.
Like always, today he was also exercising, when David entered the room through the thick metal door.
"We have decided what to do with you."David says, while holding his hands behind his back.
"Finally."E-7 mutters and gets up from the ground.
"Here."David says and hands him over the papers to E-7, who starts to read. While he is reading, David talks"We decided to give you chance to a normal life. Life where you don't have to live in a shithole and kill people."

"Maybe I like killing."He says, while turning a page.
"Well thats your problem. But from now on, you will leave with-"
"With you."E-7 says"Those are adoption papers here. Also...Who the fuck came up with this name..Echo Zain?"
"It was me."David says proudly.
"I see that you tried to be creative, but ended up with not so creative one. Echo as in military alphabet letter E. And Zain, which mean seven in Syriac. Seriously...Echo? What kind of fucking first name is that?"He asks David, who replies"It's your first name, so deal with it. We will leave now."
"Oooh how great."Echo says sarcastically."So what are the conditions?"
"Lets see. You can't run away and can't kill. You have to try to stay out of trouble and the most obvious one, not to talk about this place."David says.
"Fucking hell. Like I have choice in this matter."he mutters and then tells David"Lets just get going."
"Okay. Now follow me."David tells Echo.
The reason for his adoption, was to observe him and give him a chance at a normal life in a normal country. Not in some kind of third world shithole, where child soldiers are not a rare sight.
As the two are walking through a white hallway, David says"Tell me...Why in some stories about the White Demon, you are described to have yellow eyes, of yours are clearly gray."
"Because I can change my eye colour, If I focus enough."Echo says jokingly, so it would seem as a lie, even though he told the truth. He really can change his eye colour to yellow, If he were to focus and tap into his adrenaline. This progress, allows him to boost his speed and reflexes two times, but also is pretty exhausting to use
"Yeah....Sure."David replies like he doesn't believe, like Echo wanted.
The soon reach in front of a glass door and through the glass, Echo could see a car in front of the door and a beautiful tree line in the back.
"Lets go, Echo."David says.
In a bedroom, Echo suddenly opens his eyes and looks at the ceiling made out of wood. He then looks at his right side and sees Skyeza, who is hugging her arm and holding it between her breast. He turns to his left, to look at Nina, who is using his arm as a pillow, while one of her hands is resting on his chest.
Both of the girls have a happy and a satisfied face, which in return makes Echo happy. He now again looks at the ceiling and says.
"This world is the best place for me."

Adventures of the Goldthirst Company
Get the quest, kill the monsters, grab the loot, don't die. How hard can adventuring be? When the party is a fashionista wizard who'd rather stare at her reflection than dirty herself with actual combat, a thief that picks locks by ripping them apart, a paladin trying to do the right thing, and an archer that's better at talking to plants than people, then even a simple quest can prove a challenge. Hired for a variety of tasks, from retreiving the legendary Dragon's Veil to bodyguarding the wealthy, thwarting apocalyptic prophecies, or uncovering not-so-abandoned elven ruins, the problems in their way may well prove their undoing; lonesome medusas, sticky-fingered psychopomps, agressively passive golems and fearsomely violent geography stand in their way, as well as the minor issue of simply not actually trusting, or even liking, each other! Releases twice weekly, generally Tuesday and Friday (Art by Sin Soppitt)

But it wasn't just the machines and pilots that competed; the workers that ensured the rigs were able to fight had battles of their own.
