Matthew and the S1 teleported back up to base and were greeted by the General waiting for them. As they walked back up to the General's throne room each of the marines tried to think about why the General had been there when they had arrived.

When they got to the throne room the General sat on his throne and sighed.

"I've removed Sam from your team. Matthew, you are now the leader of S1," he said. The marines stood there motionless. None of then had expected that.

"No, no, no! You're joking right? It's still a few weeks until I'm forced to take leadership. Isn't it?" Matthew asked, being probably the most upset about the news. He didn't want to lead S1.

"Yes, but I thought that since Sam hasn't taken any interest in any of the missions you've been on, it was time for a change in leadership."

"And Sam's okay with this?"

"He is. He says that it'll give him more time to do what he needs to do. Whatever that means."

"Crap."

"Matthew! Language!"

"Sorry, Sir. Would it be okay of we took some time off to fully take all this in?"

"I'll let you and your team have a few weeks' leave. But any sign of the Chaos Marines and I want you all back in action."

"Yes, Sir," the marines said, coming to attention before departing.

"Congrats, Matt. Looks like you got your wish," Lachlan said as they walked the halls.

"I never wanted this. I was supposed to only be leader for a few weeks and then Sam would be back."

"Sounds like he's not coming back. Not any time soon anyway," Jareth added.

Cheyenne and Taine left to go and do training on the Holo Deck, leaving Jareth, Lachlan and Matthew to roam the halls of the base. They made their way to the common room that was for the S ranked marines.

"I don't want this. Do either of you want to take over?" Matthew asked as he frantically paced back and forwards across the common room. Jareth put his hand up but Lachlan quickly made him drop it.

"Look, Matthew, you have to lead the team now. Unless of course you quit. But since you haven't assigned a second in command it would mean that the team would have to disband. It's up to you," Lachlan said as he and Jareth sat on one of the many couches that littered the common room.

"Crap. I don't know what to do."

"Just lead us like you have. You've done a great job already."

"Is there any way for Sam to become the leader again?"

"I don't know. Maybe if he bet you in a fight, but I'm not sure. Why don't you want to lead us?"

"Because I … I don't know … well, I do know. I just don't want you two to know."

Jareth and Lachlan exchanged a glance of confusion. Why was it so hard for Matthew to take lead?
