By five-thirty, Janine had organized her desk, making sure not to leave her training prep lying about the place. Not that she expected anyone to come snoop around while they headed off base, but one could never be too careful.

As she left her office, Callahan was just passing by.

"I told everyone to get ready. They should be out any moment now," Callahan said.

The two women shared a quick look of understanding. "Very good. Is the Land Rover fueled up?" Janine asked.

"Yes, Ma'am."

Sure enough, multiple pairs of footsteps could be heard marching up the hallway. The men were ready.

Janine stepped out the front door, looking down at herself as she did so. Callahan would have told them to come in casuals, but she was still in uniform. Should she have changed?

She shook off the thought. On any other assignment like this, she wouldn't have, so why consider it now? She wasn't trying to impress anyone, was she?

Janine waited with her arms folded in front of herself as the recruits joined her outside.

As everyone assembled in front of the unimpressive looking building, she noticed one glaring absence. Eric.

"Where's your brother?" she asked Adam King.

The bear shrugged. "I'm not sure, Ma'am. He said he was going to go hunt by himself, but he's not back yet."

Oh well. Janine was not sure how to feel about that. On the one hand, she was relieved to not have to deal with him in a more informal setting, but on the other…

"No matter. We're all off duty, so this dinner is not compulsory. We'll get something packed anyway so he doesn't miss out completely."

Adam nodded. "Yes, Ma'am."

"Ready, everyone?" Janine asked.

The group stood at attention. "Yes, Major!"

Janine could barely suppress a smile. They really had come a long way in just two weeks.

She opened the passenger door of the Land Rover and got inside, while Callahan, who had just finished locking the barracks, took a seat behind the wheel. The recruits all got in the back, save for Blackwood, who paused.

"Ma'am, if you don't mind, it's rather crowded in here," he said.

Janine rolled down her window and gave him a questioning look. "I'm afraid this is the only vehicle authorized to pass through the main gates at all hours. Taking your own car is not an option."

"I wasn't planning to take my car…" Blackwood longingly gazed in the direction of the woods near the track that led out of the compound. "If you let me know where everyone's headed, I could squeeze in a little run. I might come across Eric and bring him along with me."

Janine glanced back at the remaining three recruits in the back, then looked at Cadet Blackwood again. "There's a pub just outside the main gates toward Brecon Village which you would have passed on your way here. If you prefer to travel on foot, I don't see the harm."

Blackwood nodded and smiled. "Thank you, Ma'am."

"We'll see you there. Let's go," Janine said.

Callahan turned the key, and the Land Rover's engine roared to life.
