Disclaimer: I do not own Alex Rider or any of it's characters

Hey, this is my first fanfiction. If you have any comments let me know, I won't be offended if you don't like my story. I'm a new and not very good writer.

I sighed as I looked at the cabin door. It looked exactly the same as the cabin I shared with K-Unit. A lot had changed since then, I had changed. I was no longer Alex Rider, a simple school boy. I was Alex Rider, teen spy and someone with way too many bad memories. I had moved to California to live with the Pleasure's but it didn't work out. I told them I was leaving and they promised not to mention where I was going to anyone. Hopefully my past would't catch up with them...

Once I left California I travelled back to Britain and obtained a fake identity. Instead of being fifteen year old Alex Rider, I was twenty two year old Ian Harris. I knew now I could never live a normal life, it was completely impossible. I decided I would join the army. Maybe there was something good I could do with my life. My skill was recognized and I was quickly directed to the SAS. Now that I was here I realized how many things could go wrong. I could be recognized from somebody who saw me last time, MI6 might figure out I'm here or even SCORPIA.

I knew SCORPIA would be back one day. If they didn't an equally as bad criminal group would probably form. That was just the way the world worked. Oh well, no backing out now. I raised my hand to the door and knocked on it. I heard someone approaching the door and it was opened a moment later.

"Who are you?" asked a fit man in his twenties. He was older than me and had dark brown hair and grey eyes.

"I'm Jaguar, I was assigned to your unit. This is S-unit right?" I asked.

"Why did we get a little runt like you? We're one of the best units. Why are we punished?" He sounded angry. Shit, was this going to be like K-Unit all over again? "Come inside I guess"

I walked inside and saw two other men. There was an Asian man who was of average height. He looked older than me but younger than the man who answered the door. The other soldier was quite tall. He had Blond hair and green eyes, he looked around the same age as the first guy.

"This is Jaguar, he is our new recruit." He said addressing the other men. "I'm Cheetah, that guy over there is Donkey" he said pointing at the Asian man "and the last guy is Giraffe."

"Okay, is there anything I need to know?" Ever since Cairo I had become closed off. I found it hard to talk to people and often chose to be alone. I wasn't sure how to act around these men. My social skills could definitely use some work.

"Don't be a smart ass, know your place and keep up." Giraffe said.

'Okay' I thought simple straightforward rules, I could live with that.

"Listen it's late and we have to be up early for training tomorrow, let's all go to bed now." It was Donkey who spoke this time.

We all got ready and were soon in our beds. I hoped for once something would go smoothly without problems for me. I didn't have high hopes though, ever since Ian died my life had been going down hill. I had the luck of the devil. 'Maybe this would be a turning point though' I thought as I drifted to sleep. I unfortunately have the luck of the devil, my name may be changed but I'm still a rider.
