Between [[2511]] and [[2517]], 150 six year old children were selected from perfect psycological and genetic markers that were set in [[Dr. Halsey]]'s selection protocols. They screened them for certain genetic markers: strength, agility, even predispostions for aggression and intellect. But due to lack of facilities and funding, only 75 children were actually chosen for the program, since not all of the chidren were perfect for the project, there were environmental factors, mutations, learned ethics, and a hundred other factors that made them unnaceptalbe. Then, they were taken from their homes in the middle of the night, injected with a chemical that made them sleep for a long time, some times inbetween the dates: August 17-September 23, which is 75 children taken from many various worlds in only 38 days. They had then all been rushed through slipstream space to Reach, where they were going to be trained. They were only recently brought of cryosleep when a woman told them that they would defend [[Earth]] and all her colonies, that they could not return to their parents, that there would be a great deal of hardship on the road ahead, encouragement, and various other things. The children were then escorted to barracks were they had a something to eat, and went to bed at around 11:30 PM. | Between [[2511]] and [[2517]], 150 six year old children were selected from perfect psycological and genetic markers that were set in [[Dr. Halsey]]'s selection protocols.

The [[Spartans]] were rudely awaken at 5:30 AM by [[Mendez]] and his instructors. Mendez ordered them to go to the showers and those who hesitated got the [[Electric Baton]]. After that they went outside and Mendez made them do hard warmups: 100 jumping jacks, 100 sit ups, 100 deep squats, and 100 knee bends. After that they got water and Mendez, instructors ran/ jogged them about a mile to [[Déjà]], a "dumb" [[AI]] that taught them a wide variety of lessons, math, and many different other things. They also got to eat crackers and milk. Their first lesson was a video of the original, Greek Spartans fighting against persian soldiers. (More detail about this lesson and many others in the section, Déjà's Lessons.) Then Mendez took them a couple miles to the playground, a mize in mid air with a bell at the top that you had to ring, put them into 15 groups of 3, and told them the last group to finish didn't get to eat supper. After that the Spartans and Mendez jogged back to the barracks, ate, and went to sleep. | The [[Spartans]] were rudely awaken at 5:30 AM by [[Mendez]] and his instructors.
