Showe understood why they sent her on this exploratory mission, but she couldn’t shake the feeling of unease that accompanied it. She had been through years of training, aced every exam, and finished every assignment, but she couldn’t help but to feel out of her depth here.
It certainly didn’t help that her partners for this mission were two classmates of hers that she never got the chance to know very well. She wasn’t so sure that anyone knew very much about these two. They were so insular and aloof that nobody got a chance to get to know them. At first she was hoping to build a better relationship with them, but the increasing worry surrounding this trip made that feel unlikely.
