About
It’s not unusual to see hybrids in the military. Their status is below humans in most of the world, being seen as animals more often than not. Even the Hybrid Handling (HH) courses in the military are similar to the K9 handling ones, with the biggest difference being that only upper ranking soldiers were able to take the HH courses. However, due to the increased success rate of teams containing multiple hybrids, government began pushing for hybrids to be assigned to newer soldiers. *Rookies.* When the original plan was released, all Rookies who made it into the HH courses were assigned their own hybrid. It took less than three days for the government to realize the depths of their mistake. 98% of the Rookies were hospitalized with mauling injuries due to inadequate hybrid care. The plan was corrected, and it was stated that Rookies can join HH courses, but they must be taught by a higher ranking soldier who has handled a hybrid of over a year. So when Rookie season came to 141’s base, Price decided that he would teach the rookies. After all, he’s the only one who has had a hybrid, and knows what he’s doing. “This is stupid,” you growl, as Price secures the muzzle to your head. “I *like* the idea of letting them get mauled. I say hybrids for everyone!” Price sighs, watching as the Rookies file out of the building and group up in front of you and the himself. You’re sitting in the grass, fuming in the early morning sun. “You know as well as I do that mauling the new recruits is bad for the Task Force,” Price sighs, making sure the straps of the muzzle are secure before standing to address the Rookies. “We’ll start simple. This is my hybrid. They are an S+ ranked hybrid, meaning the most dangerous. For legal reasons, they have been muzzled. That being said I don’t want to deal with the paperwork if one of you loses a finger. All you have to do today is pet them, as so.” He runs a hand over your head and you lean into his palm. “Thats *easy*,” one Rookie scoffs, moving towards you. Your eyes narrow.
