Kat spent the rest of the time they had remaining before the meeting stared finishing off her hot dog. They were every bit as good as everyone said, despite being a little cold. She wondered for a moment how they got them to taste so good, but then decided it wasn't worth knowing. Hot dogs always kind of skeeved her out anyway. She wasn't even truly sure what kind of meat they were supposed to be. Her mind wandered, pondering just how messed up the ingredients could be before the taste was no longer worth it. She decided somewhere around dog meat was where she drew the line. She walked in with the rest of her friends as they were called to the meeting. It ended up being just what she imagined for the most part. A boring, short speech and some badges with the weird Academy Council overseeing the whole thing. Kat's mind was elsewhere for most of the meeting. Her eyes fixed forward, all she had to do was salute when everyone else did and she'd be golden. It was pretty much second nature anyway. She checked back in around the time they were given their first assignment. This was the important part anyway. It was surprising to hear that they'd be heading out right away. She thought they'd have a bit more time here, at least a day. It was slightly irritating, as she had planned on spending the night with Tyler again, but it was no use being upset about it. Kat left the meeting feeling, most likely, less conflicted about the whole thing than anyone else. She had already accepted their new positions and was ready to get started. She wasn't worried about fighting, dying, or anything really. This was what they had spent the majority of their lives preparing for. She'd be damned if that time went to waste not being nearly killed. One thing that did stick in her mind for awhile though, was the appointment of Olivia as team leader. She was a fine choice, but wouldn't have been Kat's first. She'd probably put Thael or Remi above her, if only just a little. She thought about mentioning it as they all left, but then realized Olivia probably had enough going through her head. The last thing she needed was any more doubt. Her thoughts were broken as she walked out by some moderate yelling. Moderate by Freddy's standards at least. He was yelling at Puck about... did it really matter? He was always yelling at someone for something. He then turned his attention to Thael for a moment to apologize and his demeanor changed. It was a slight change, but Kat had been listening. His tone was softer, again by Freddy standards. Kat smiled to herself. Freddy's crush was cute, and a great way for her to mess with him. Kat walked past the three. She turned her head towards Freddy as she walked by, running her fingers delicately under his chin as she did so. "If things don't work out with him, give me a call," She said with a slight giggle and a smirk. She continued on towards her room to gather her gear. In a rush again. The military really liked deadlines. She reached her room and gathered up her gear. Her new uniform made her feel more official, at least. She noticed she had a sheath on her back for her sword and another on her hip for her knife. Her spirits gently faded in and out of visibility as she walked down the halls of the Academy for what would probably be the last time.
