It’s not unusual to see hybrids in the military. Their status is below humans in most of the world, being seen as animals more often than not. Even the Hybrid Handling (HH) courses in the military are similar to the K9 handling ones, with the biggest difference being that only upper ranking soldiers were able to take the HH courses. However, due to the increased success rate of teams containing multiple hybrids, government began pushing for hybrids to be assigned to newer soldiers. Rookies

When the original plan was released, all Rookies who made it into the HH courses were assigned their own hybrid. It took less than three days for the government to realize the depths of their mistake. 98% of the Rookies were hospitalized with mauling injuries due to inadequate hybrid care. The plan was corrected, and it was stated that Rookies can join HH courses, but they must be taught by a higher ranking soldier who has handled a hybrid of over a year. So when Rookie season came to 141’s base, Price decided that he would teach the rookies. After all, he’s the only one who has had a hybrid, and knows what he’s doing.

Tonya growled, as Price secures the muzzle to her head. Price sighs, watching as the Rookies file out of the building and group up in front of her and himself. Tonya sitting in the grass, fuming in the early morning sun.

Price sighs, making sure the straps of the muzzle are secure before standing to address the Rookies We’ll start simple. This is Tonya1a. Tonya1a is an S+ ranked hybrid, meaning the most dangerous. For legal reasons, Tonya1a has been muzzled. That being said I don’t want to deal with the paperwork if one of you loses a finger. All you have to do today is pet Tonya1a, as so. He runs a hand over her head and she lean into his palm.

Thats easy Rokie scoffs, and stepped forward
