[center][b]Mika Smyth, A new life?''[/b][/center] Mika had been oddly quiet. She had spoken only little to those who had spoken to her. With a rather calm look, this wasn't the friendly girl that she had always faked to be. But she wasn't the silent type either. Walking towards the cabin she would find her uniform, Mika stared at it for a moment. She couldn't hear the people around her anymore. She really didn't even care about it. Both of her hands went to the uniform, slightly trembling. [i]This is it. This is it.[/i] Was the sentence she kept repeating in her head as a little smile was starting to adore her lips. Getting dressed into the uniform, the trainee could almost see herself. [center]Smiling.[/center] Overhearing two girls talking about the schedule that was placed on the back of the door, Mika thought briefly about it. She had to secure her positions and find a way to reach her own goal. Freedom. She wasn't like some planning on joining the police. That was for fools who wished to become mere lapdogs of those who were safe in the most inner district. Not a place where Mika would ever feel at home. No, then the slums were more fitting for a person like her. She had always lived at the dirt and had been content with it. At least, as long as her belly had been full and no cold was touching her skin. But then again, to realize her dreams, to become free of any law or authority, she would need to join the Survey Corps. If there was one choice she really was going to regret, it would be most likely that. To join a corps that would go outside the safety of the walls and civilization to combat those titans? Madness if you would ask Mika. Walking outside the cabin, she briefly looked around herself. Nobody she knew. That could be demotivating. She had nobody to rely on. Nobody to use or who could be of use, as she had no information about somebody. But hopefully that was also right back at everybody else. Here she would just be a face among many. Mika doubted she would stand out and if she would, she would hold herself back. Getting attention now, in a position like this? That wouldn't help her plans to become independent. For now, she would just play along. Nice and friendly. With that in mind, she kept on walking, trying to figure out where she would start. Probably with making some contact with girls. She could use some ''friends'' that would be close. Then she could think about expanding her contacts. Passing two girls, she overheard one saying she wished to join the Survey Corps. Looking sideways, she looked better at the two. One that had red hair, that had said she wished to join the Survey Corps. Number two clearly wanted to join the Survey Corps as well, judging by the words of the red haired girl. Walking up to two girls she saw talking, Mika put on a smile as she would greet them in a most friendly and eager way. [b]''Hey there. I heard you want to join the Survey Corps. Means we have the same plan, eh?''[/b] Stretching her right hand forward, she flashed a smile to both girls. [b]''Mika.''[/b]
