After packing our bags, we hand them over to be loaded up and head back to the training ground. I still have no idea what's happening but I keep following Thane. Once back at the training grounds, we all stand in front of what looks like tactical gear.
It's getting real... I nervously lick my lips as Titus walks over and says "We head out in thirty. Gear up." I awkwardly lift my hand and clear my throat, causing everyone to turn and look at me. Titus arches a brow and asks "What is it, Valen?"
I straighten my shoulders and say "I want to make sure... I'm supposed to be here and there isn't some kind of mistake." Titus looks at me with hard eyes as he says "I handpicked this entire team. You're here because I said so. There is no mistake. Gear up."
