Jaina stood there staring deep at her own reflection. She was getting old, and her age was beginning to show, even if she didn't admit it. Her once sleek blonde hair was now fading grey. Her tan skin slowly began to lose color and wrinkle. Age was hitting her hard and in time she would began to feel it, right now, luckily, she could only see it. She began to apply her make up, tapping and patting here and there making those unwanted wrinkles disappear behind a layer of mascara. In time she looked ten years younger and felt ten times more confident.
She was interrupted by a quick and sudden knock on her bathroom door. Placing her tools back down on the sink she grabbed her white coat behind her and walked out the door. She was greeted by the familiar dark face of her dear Sasha.
"My lady," the tall dark skinned woman said politely behind a white smile "the handlers await your presence in the chamber."
"Yes I am aware," Jaina said as she grabbed her file and walked to the door "please walk with me." She asked the other lady.
And with that the two women began the long walk to the chamber. Soon Jaina found herself struggling to keep up with Sasha's massive legs having to take two steps for Sasha's one. Almost as if Sasha sensed Jainas discomfort she began to slow down. And with that the awkward silence was broken and replaced by a question.
"Are you excited for the ceremony my lady? I know you have worked long and hard to see this culmination completed."
It was true, Jaina was excited even beyond her own expectations. After eighteen years finally phase one has been completed. The surviving seven subjects had done the impossible, each one becoming the impossible. A smile crossed Jaina's lips as she walked next to her companion.
"We still have work to do, you know phase one was just the beginning." She said as she continued to walk on.
"Of course my lady, but do you really think it wise to begin phase two?" Sasha said as she looked down at Jaina, sincerely curious. But the time for questions was over, they had reached the chamber and Sasha was not allowed entrance. Jaina let out a sigh then looked at her partner.
"It does not matter what I think, they will continue their journey regardless. The assets have proven their resilience and their will to survive, now we must direct them to their greater potential." Or so that's what she told herself. Jaina knew that these assets where some of the best she could create. But she also knew they were not ready, none of them were ready for what would come next. Her eyes dropped to the floor and she bit her bottom lip.
She'd never admit it, but after eighteen years these assets grew on her. Some more so then others, but all of them were her children.
She shook her head and snapped back to reality. She looked at Sasha for encouragement and found a warm smile on the woman's lips, her encouragement now found, Jaina walked through the solid white door, Sasha was close behind her. Instantly she was greeted by seven men, all of them sitting in silence awaiting the news Jaina would bring them.
"Good morning gentleman," she said in a kind greeting, interrupting their casual conversations. "Shall we begin?" Almost as if an answer each man gave her his complete focus, some spun around in their chairs so they could look at the screen she brought to life behind her.
"Now as we all know, phase one is almost at an end. And with phase one's end, phase two shall begin." She let out a warm smile that brought down the tension tremendlessly. "Congratulations gentleman, each of you have done the impossible." With that all of the men started to clap, all basking in their well deserved accomplishment. "So, gentleman, now we prepare for phase two. Sasha, the lights please."
Once Sasha dimmed the lights Jaina walked behind a podium and typed her password into the screen. Instantly Jaina was in her own private network and then she inserted her file. On her screen she saw pictures of each and every asset, ever, most of the photos had the words DECEASED above their picture. All of Jaina's failures, all the ones she couldn't save.
Finally she reached her significant seven, all of them had completed phase one. All of them would become their champions, maybe.
She clicked the photo of a young Twi'Lek woman. Instantly the photo was projected on the screen for everyone to see.
"Here we have subject 12 who here is her handler?" She asked as she scanned the room waiting for the man to raise his hand. The answer came with a man directly in front of her.
"She's mine." The man said simply. Jaina looked down at her computer then back at the man.
"Okay Joshua, tell me about subject 12."
"What would you like to know?"
"Everything Sir."
The man let out a cough, then he told Jaina everything.

Suddenly the alarms blared in the bunk house. An overwhelming red light washed over the room Anthoni shared with his six companions. It was time to wake up, and in an instant Anthoni was on his feet. He was completely naked and quickly he got to his trunk at the foot if his bed and dressed himself. Tonight was the night of graduation.
Tonight was the night of nights.
