Dirge's eyes lit up a bit as he heard someone speak to him. "Huh?" He asked instinctively before grinning once more. She looked to be a woman with fiery red-orange hair. The brunette spoke loudly, but (miraculously,) didn't yell. "Yeah! The Capture Styler is the most awesome thing ever. After all," He began, but quickly caught himself. "I've always loved traveling." He said, though it appeared he was about to say something a bit more obnoxious. The shadows of the lush rain forest were ever-changing, and that amazed him somehow. Vaguely, he wondered how much farther they would have to walk through this dirt path, and if this path was the only way in and out of the island. If that was so, it was a good thing he had no issues with running. Still, he would have to change into his tennis shoes later- hiking boots were good for... uh... hiking but walking long distances required something a little lighter.

Slowly the forest began to clear and branch out into several forks. The rangers seemed to know where to go and lead the trainees with confidence. In little time, they arrived in a clearing where there were many bungalows. They appeared very cozy. "U-Uh, if you would, line up when I call your name...?" Annemarie nearly pleaded fearfully. Luckily for her, nobody was too unruly and anyone who was was given a harsh death glare from Kyler. Once everyone had lined up, the girl rummaged through her bag until she pulled out a cream flashcard.

"Ah, if it's not too much t-t-trouble, t-these are your g-groups... y-yeah? U-uhm... We'll pick the leaders of each squad and y-you can n-n-name it if you'd l-like..." She coughed once more and tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear. "Squad one. Dirge Burlesque, Noah Scarlett, and H-H-Hao Ryota... Squad t-t-t-" Before she could continue, Viva rolled her eyes and snatched the card from her hands and read it herself. 

"Squad two. Lylis Newton, Rebel Cornelius, and Leonardo Silverstone. Squad three: Mai Taniyama, Cecelia Rielly, and Rainer Spades. And last but hopefully not least, Rena Sato, Derrick Richards, and Regan Hiryuu." Smiling as she finished, the girl pocketed the card and nodded. "Take a look at the people who you'll be stuck with for your entire career." She declared with a laugh. Then she whispered a few things to Kyler, who arched an eyebrow. She tapped a foot against the unpaved ground abently, resting her eyes on the barren bungalows that smelled like wet paint. 

Dirge looked up as is name was called. The walk here wasn't a short one, though he didn't really mind. As the black-haired girl took over for the brunette, he couldn't shake the feeling that she seemed familiar somehow. Had he seen her before? Nevertheless, as he was called, he put on a big smile and lined up, waiting for the others to as well. Once everyone had lined up, and Dirge has checked over his teammates- a girl and a boy who looked to be around the same age as him- and waved excitedly. So these were the folks that he would be having all his adventures with. He thought of saying his name, but didn't the other two realize that he was Dirge since he was called first? Maybe they weren't paying attention, but he didn't want to sound snarky... "My name's Dirge Burlesque." He said as friendly as he could, trying to make a good impression.
