Exiting the strobe lit room revealed a bruised and soaked Shane. A net was still caught around his foot and another on his shoulder. "God...dammit", he grunted as he looked up the rock wall to see Dimitri, Jack, and Shadow already at the finish line. However he wasn't so much disappointed but satisfied. Throughout all this he had learned many things about himself and his classmates. He'd learned that without his abilities he was lacking somewhat the stealth and finesse he once had first starting out as a thief. This would be his goal during his time at the academy. He also learned that Shadow would prove to be a valuable ally or an annoyance for what he had planned. She was the onto person-as far as he knew-who could sense the Rift in him. If she had knowledge of it she perhaps she'd be willing to share...or use it against him should their paths cross in the future. 

Shaking himself from his thoughts, Shane continued on to climb the rock wall. He wasnt going to leave this course incomplete that was for sure. He struggled to climb the wall, due to his injuries, and after a few slips and close calls managed to ascend to the top to find a celebrating Dimitri along with Jack and Shadow. "Not bad Tin-man, I thought I'd win this won but looks like it's yours. Same to you Shadow, maybe you've got me beat in the obstacle course department but what about a little sparring later?"
