Tyler "Hunter" Adams - Part 1 - Selection

April 2009. The alarm blared, dragging 16-year-old Tyler Adams from a deep sleep. With a groan, he silenced the insistent buzzing and slowly opened his eyes. He was tall, already well-muscled for his age, a fact he took for granted. School was starting again, the final term before the summer holidays.
He forced himself out of bed and padded towards his younger brother Joshua's room. "Hey Joshua, wake up," he mumbled, giving his brother a nudge. Joshua stirred, muttering a sleepy "What?" before the realization dawned. "Oh right, school."
"Yeah, school. Anyways, I'm going in the shower." Tyler left, heading for the bathroom, the routine as ingrained as his ambition. After a quick shower, he dressed, pulling on his polo shirt with the school logo, a small concession for the summer term. He quickly sprayed on perfume, combed his hair, grabbed his Nike hoodie and bag, and bounded down the stairs, ready to face another day.
