Reemi climbed out of the machine that had transported her and about 100 other men into the deep snowy wilderness. They came out in front of the building, and for a minute it didn't seem that bad. They had all already been in the army for about a year, and were heading onto their secondary training. Reemi had managed to get through without her secret being found out so far, so unless there were more necessary physicals, she would be alright.
She unloaded off the truck with the rest of the recruits, huddling in the heavy jacket they had been issued with their uniforms. It was as if there was nothing blocking the cold. She looked around, the other men chating amongst each other, at least they were, until a voice bellowed through it. A man came out of the building that looked much warmer then anywhere they were going to let them go.
"Alright you sorry excuses for soldiers, how ya liking the cold?" He asked, looking around the group. No one answered him. "I hope you like it, because for the next 6 weeks, you will feel NO warmth, NO comfort, your lives will be miserable from here on out!" He shouted. Reemi frowned, it sounded like so much fun.

There was one recruit there though who didn't seem at all affected by the cold air, or the instructors yelling. Infact he wasnt dressed in the heavy clothing the rest were. He was dressed in some fancy looking robes, the sleeves flapping in the wind "You call these guys pathetic yet you yourself are staying ina place thats as warm as summer...ever heard of the term hipocrit?" he asked, just staring at the man. This 'recruit' was on load here to 'experiance what Xanadar troops go through' He was one of the best Heaven's Wings had to offer...although when he was put on loan here, no one ever mentioned that he had an additude towards bossy generals. He had went through 50 of em in his training days, he had his fill, and was now out for revenge.

"Looks like our loan has an attitude! Well we'll just see how you like the cold," He said, going back inside the building and leaving them out there. She crossed her arms over her chest and looked around, making sure that no one was paying any special attention to her. She took in a deep breath and let it out in a huff, releasing a small spiral of warmth that circled around her, even melting the snow a bit. She warmed up real quick. She looked over to the new guy. She really hopped he didn't do anything that got them in too much trouble.

"Lazy ass." The guy said, just streching, not minding the cold at all. A minute later another, very tall instructor showed up "...Oh geez...again with his temper" he said, scratching his head "Well, come on, I'll show you all to you're bunkers" he said, though that was a huge overstatement, the bunkers were just shoddily made tents that didn't keep the cold out, and just barely resisted the wind. "This is where you'll be staying, chose you're bunks and come back out here in five minutes, training will start imidietly." he said. He had that asshole demanding tone, but he seemed much nicer than the last one.

"Hey, Denauge," one of the guys called over to Reemi. She turned to one of the guys she had been with since the village raid. "Hey Auborn," She said. That one seemed to have a higher voice, but hell, he looked so young, it wasn't surprising. Very few cats got to this level. Most were literally just bullet sheilds. No one really knew how the cats worked. So maybe his hi voice was natural. Reemi put her stuff on the bunk under Auborns and took off the first heavy jacket, leaving her in just the winter uniform. She and Auborn headed back towards the meeting spot.

At the meeting spot however there were that tall instructor and the new guy that was on loan from Heaven's Wings. They both turned their heads and looked at the recruits comming over, so they parted ways.

Reemi was the first to come, so she spotted them talking. She raised an eyebrow, bu didn't say anything. When the rest of them fell in, another instructor came out. He was a tall, bulky man, who looked like he considered himself the greatest thing since sliced bread. "Alright recruits! The first thing you're going to do here is learn to fight in harsh conditions so I want you," he pointed to Zack, "and you,' he pointed to Reemi, who froze and almost squeaked, "too come forward and fight it until one of you can't get up again," He said. Reemi timidly stepped foward.

Zack just stepped forward. He muttered something under his breath and turned to Reemi "Well, come on, lets get this over with" he said, taking a stance. Though as she may have noticed, only one arm was visible. The other one was missing. Becouse of this many thought that he couldn't put up a good fight. That and the long hair and fancy outfit lalbeled him as a wimp amongs the recruits.

It was like the instructor tried to pick to whimps. Reemi looked at him. He really didn't want to fight. He didn't want to make any moves, and He definitely didn't want to draw attention to Himself. Elemental control was a rare ability. He didn't take any stance. He just stared at Zack, waiting for him to make the first move.

"...Not gonna do anything? Alright" He said, and within a second, there was a sound of metal brushing metal, and after a sudden gust of wind. Zack was standing behind the guy, an odd, jagged sword pressed against his neck "One movement and you're dead." He said, then moved the sword away from his neck and sheated it "There, its over" he said to the instructor.

Though when Zack turned around he'd find an ice spike inches away from his face. Reemi had turned to face him, her hands in front of her, finally in a stance. She waited to see what he'd do next or see if the instructor called it over. The instructor didn't

Zack blinked, then sighed. He grabbed the ice spike and broke it off, throwing it away "Just have it be over with already" He said then turned around to face him again, this time imidietly going on the offensive, just trying to gut punch the guy

It's too late Reemi thought. The snow suddenly shot up, acting as a smoke screen so she could avoid the attack easier. She turned and a ball of ice hit Zack head on in the cheek. The snow had settled again, and Reemi was standing far behind him.The recruits seemed astonished.

For Zack it wasn't really all that impressive. And for another fact. He was one when the 'smoke' setteled. Not above her, not infront of her, not behind her. He was gone. Though then he suddenly jumped up from under the snow and just sucker uppercuted her right in her jaw

Reemi went down, and as he did he threw both of his hands forward, sending a spiral of fire forward, wrapping around him. Oh shoot! That's two He thought, looking over his shoulder at the instructor, who was watching him intentially. He scrambled to his feet again and stomped on the ground, moving his arms up, domes of thick ice surrounding him to give him a chance to think.
