Rikke laughed when he mentioned fighting against asteroids and drones. "Unlike us, the admiral feels threatened by those asteroids" She joked. She wouldn't mind the frequency of the drills if there was frequent combat to balance things. But still, she did hate the amount of times they did drills in their schedule. 

She stood up and fixed her ponytail. "I'd really like to see some action again. I've forgotten when we last saw some fighting." Her red hair shining dully. A few of her friends joked about how her red hair was the reason she was so eager to fight. A small smile formed on her face as she remembered them, and all of the fun they had. Sadly, most were either busy with life, or in other systems, no doubt doing the same drills she was. Last time she talked to a friend, she felt a bit small. Metaphorically anyway. And wished she had the luck her friend did, who was in the captains chair for a whole ship, though she couldn't recall which ship type it was.

"So, what do you think? We'll see some action in a few years?" Joking again.
