Location: Mission Briefing room
Interactions: Aquaman, the team[/center]

Kassy startled a bit as her king appeared on the mission screen. She had been expecting the broody Batman. She stood up and curtsied deep, as protocol devised. [color=orange]“My King, it’s a pleasure to see you again.”[/color] But her head jerked up when Red Tornado said she was to lead. Yes, they were going to Atlantis. Her heart was happy about that. The sudden fear, however, almost outweighed her joy. But he was her king, she couldn’t very well argue with his command.

[color=orange]“Y-yes, my King, if you find me worthy, then I’ll lead.”[/color] When had she started sweating?

Once Aquaman was off the screen, and the rest of their mission explained, she exhaled in a shudder. [color=orange]“Me, lead? Oh, this will go well, I’m sure.”[/color] The mission seemed simple enough, but her mind was so full of things that could go wrong. Shark attack, suit failure, getting lost in the depths of the ocean, a full on mutiny from the team… 

Speaking of that, would the others even want to listen to her? They were friends, but she was not used to being in charge. The girls would probably be fine with it. Ja had gotten strange again, since the mission at the circus, but she hoped he wouldn’t be an issue. No, the two she really had to worry about were Zach and his complaining, and Viktor with his natural ease of leadership. He could take over without her even noticing it was happening.

Her knees trembled, and she started to breathe more deeply to compensate. It would be good to go back to the palace, right? She could show her friends around after their mission was completed. Yes, if she just focused on the good things to come, she could ignore the rest. Maybe.

[color=orange]“If anyone needs me, I will be in my room preparing.”[/color] She pulled up an ocean chart on her phone and started charting a course.
