California stopped at the strange outburst from South Dakota, looking over at the girl she shook her head before turning away, about to move on when suddenly a guy appeared in front of her. Funny, he looked like he could be related to North and South, maybe he was. She doubted it; otherwise he’d probably be over there with them instead of here with her. That and the Dakota’s thing seemed to be blue, but she was pretty sure this guy had been in red and black amour. Either way she took an unconscious step backwards at the extended hand and, after a suspicious glance, she reached out and shook it.
She wasn’t in this to make friends, but she wasn’t going to go out of her way to be rude either. “You would be correct.” She confirmed, though honestly had no idea what to say next. Casual chit-chat had never really been her thing. “You’ll um… have to forgive me… I don’t remember you at all.” Whilst a lot of the other agents had been sizing up the competition, studying them, she had been focusing solely on herself. Knowing how good the others were was not going to get her any more points in this game.

After the training, in the locker-room once she had removed her amour, revelling short, pixie brown hair and green eyes California looked around, trying to locate South Dakota. Despite the fact that it had been orders, she still felt annoyed about being forced to fight her. It hadn't been fair. It was a lot harder to recognise people out of amour, but she suspected the pair of blondies walking away were a good bet since a lot of people were speculating that they were some kind of pair or something. However before she was able to move she saw Carolina running up to them and a brief look of disappointment crossed her face before she turned and walked away.
Clearly it wasn’t something that was going to happen, at least for now. Sometimes she was a little too proud for her own good and she would prefer to do things like apologising when there wasn’t an audience. Following at a distance she moved off to sit on her own at another table, deciding a meal wasn’t the worst idea to get something to eat before she went to bed. Once she was done she quickly rose and left, trying to draw as little attention to herself as possible.

In California’s mind she was doing fine. And she was. Her scores compared to any normal soldier were impressive. However the level of the other freelancer agents was a step up from those she was used to and whilst she may have been the best back where she came from, here her scores were falling below the average.
“Hand to hand combat trails will begin shortly.”
She had thought the robotic voice would annoy her eventually, but it actually proved to be a nice, soothing voice that gave her an odd sense of calm. She moved over and took a drink of water from the bench, turning as she heard the door to the room open and a very unsure South Dakota ushered in. for a moment she paused and then looked up at the security camera that had been recording her results. “What is this?” She demanded angrily. “Seriously? The fuck is this?!”
“Your hand to hand combat opponent, Agent California.” F.I.L.S.S replied.
“I thought all the tests were supposed to be simulations? We weren’t supposed to fight actual opponents!” It wasn’t that she was worried about actually fighting the other girl, she’d seen her in the preliminary rounds, fighting wasn’t her strength. It was more she felt bad about the fact she was going to have to fight her, it didn’t seem fair and it meant she had been misled.
“We are the ones who make the rules here, California. Just approach this like any other sparring match.” That voice wasn’t F.I.L.S.S, rather someone she didn’t recognise. One of the higher ups no doubt.
Groaning California turned to look at South, it was so hard to tell what people were thinking; feeling when you wouldn’t see their faces. Still, she wasn’t going to let her score drop because of this. Moving forward she waited for the signal and once given the go-ahead quickly engaged on agent South.
