"Might as well get up and get so food" you say to yourself, After showering and shaving you put on your combat fatigues, tie up your boots, strap your sidearm to your right leg and head to the mess hall and find several other people had the same idea as you. You walk over to the buffet line, grab a tray and get some food and a coffee, you go and find a table to yourself near the back of the mess hall. You begin eating your breakfast and enjoying your coffee in silence, you look around the room and see only about four other soldiers in the mess, not counting the cooks behind the buffet. "What are you doing up so early?" you hear a female voice behind you and on reflex you reach for your sidearm, but catch yourself before turning around and see it was Sheila, a kitsune who seemed to have her eyes on you since you were transferred here, the reason why she likes you is beyond you. She was staring at you as if she was looking for something
"Couldn't sleep" you tell her, she continues to stare at you. You slowly bring up your hand an snap your fingers in front of her eyes, but that does nothing. She reaches up and pushes your hand down and continues to stare at you, "you ok?" you ask, confused. She snaps out of her stare "Yeah" she answers, sounding defeated. " Um ok, I gotta go" you tell her as you get up to take care of your tray and cup. You feel eyes burning into the back of your head as you march out of the mess onto the hard packed, dessert ground to go find your squad leader.

You sit down and begin to eat, but really your just picking at your food, lost in thought when suddenly one of your squad mate walks up behind you and taps you on the shoulder making you jump, " you alright? You're normally never this jumpy." He asks. "Yeah I'm fine just thinking" you reply, "still can't read his mind?" he asks, "Yeah it's like there's nothing there, no thoughts, no memories flashing through his mind, nothing. I've never had this happen to me before." you tell him. "well i got good new and bad news which do you want to hear first?" he asks
"I'll go with......."
