Mendez ordered them to go to the showers and those who hesitated were hit by an [[Electric Baton]]. After that they went outside and Mendez made them do 100 jumping jacks, 100 sit ups, and 100 crouches. | ||
After that, Mendez and the instructors 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 [[wikipedia:Spartans|Spartans]] fighting against Persian soldiers at Thermopylae. Then they jogged two miles to the playground, a maze in mid-air with a bell at the top, the instructors put them into 15 groups of 3, and told them the last group to finish didn't get to eat supper. | After that, Mendez and the instructors jogged them about a mile to [[Déjà]], a "dumb" [[AI]] that taught them a wide variety of lessons, math, and many different other things.

One child handed out pieces of paper, the papers were portions of maps of the local region. Mendez told them, you will be set down by yourselves, you will navigate to a marked extraction point and we will pick you up there, the last trainee to make it to the extraction point will have to walk all the way back. | |||
The Spartans silently made a plan to meet up at a lake near the LZ. Once they were all at the lake they regrouped, scouted the area, and put their map pieces together. When they got to the extraction point, the men around the Pelican weren't in uniform and the Spartans devised a plan to take back the Pelican. The Spartans lured them out and they beat them all with rocks and stolen stun batons. With Déjà's help they all got home, some with minor injuries. A Spartan, named [[John-117]], was responsible after the mission and was promoted to squad leader. | The Spartans silently made a plan to meet up at a lake near the LZ.
