Center would reply in a stern and fair manner, "We need all the help we can get to defeat the supernatural menace. This isn't a war a single country can defeat. If we were this divided, the paranormals would enslave us within a week. Also, after the dinner, we will have promotions. You'll be included so be sharp."
Once the dinner was completed and over, William, Xavier, Goliath, and Charles were called for promotions. "I have called you for your hard work and heroism. I will promote all of you to the next ranks. William Burkley, Xavier Otienio Northway, and Goliath Gath, you will all be promoted to Sergeant. Your code names will be Assassin, Hunter, and Crash respectively. Reasons for the code names is because of first, William's efficient killing, Xavier's calculation and methods, and Goliath's power will make the enemy crash and burn. Charles Luz, you have been promoted to Squaddie. Be confident and feel well about yourselves. Remember, your kinsfolk are counting on you."
As Center was about to dismiss the group, he had received a call from Bulgaria. "Hello? What is this? Oh I'll get to the matter right away. Please hold." He turned to the promoted group. Goliath, I have something special from a Bulgarian official. Everyone else is dismissed. As soon all but Goliath was dismissed, Center would tell Goliath of what entailed. "From your background, I believe we can make a deal. If you do exceptionally well in ParaCom in performance and professionalism, you won't have to go back to prison. You'll be completely absolved of whatever crimes you might have committed. After all, whatever happens in the past stays in the past." Center was ready to tell Goliath of the Bulgarian official and have the official involved in cementing the deal.
