John nods gratefully and takes the burger from Kat. By the time they reach Mimic's class three minutes later, the cheeseburger had disappeared and John seemed slightly perkier. When Connor picks him, John walks over to join the others, his confident swagger back once again. Then, as Kat is picked by Katherine, he sighs, "We're so royally fucked."
Ben joins Katherine's team, smiling when he sees a younger girl that's obviously very excited. "Did you drink too much Red Bull with your lunch or something?"
Unlike the others, Anthony remains in his seat, even after being chosen. The only sign that he gave Connor to indicate that he had heard the decision was a slight nod in Connor's direction.
Once the teams had been decided, Mimic places a large box on his desk, then opens it. Inside are devices that looked very similar to the helmets used in Battle Simulation class, but with far fewer wires. "The two teams will be fighting each other in a simulation, kind of like in B.S. class." After a short pause to chuckle at his own quip, Mimic continues, "However, you'' be aware that this one is just a simulation, unlike in the Martian Manhunter's class. If you're the type of person that uses weapons or gadgets, you'll be able to choose three. Connor and Ben, your suits each count as one. Any questions? No? Then Ryan, pass out these hats."
