The two ventrexian men were still walking down the halls. Cataloupe was leading Pawblo to his new quarters. They were both quiet the whole time.
"Well?"
Pawblo snapped back into reality. "W-what?"
"Tell me about yourself, Cadet." Cataloupe fixed his posture a little as he walked on. Pawblo didn't know what to say. He was new to all of this.
"Well, sir, I lived in Tera Con Prime since I was a kid."
"With your parents?"
"I....I never knew them. I was alone, sir."
Cataloupe's ears perked. He didn't expect to hear this kind of response. "I'm....so sorry to hear that, Cadet. But don't worry. You're here now. Your parents would be proud to see you here."
Pawblo shrugged. "I sure hope so."
Cataloupe soon stopped in front of a door, as they had reached a spare quarter room they had. Pawblo gripped his bag's strap as he walked into it along with Cataloupe. He eyed the quarter room. There was only one bed, and it seemed as if the second one was removed.
"Here is where you'll be staying. Training and breakfast are at 5 in the morning, and dinner/reassignments are at 8. You'd better get adjusted to that schedule, Cadet." Pawblo turned to face General Cataloupe. "I won't let you down, sir." He saluted him, which led Cataloupe to smile.
"I'll take your word for it." He soon walked out of the room, heading back to General Purrito's office.
Pawblo sat down on his bed and looked around. The room looked like it could use some decorating, but he would have to order some stuff.
"This can work. I can do this. I can be a great soldier." Pawblo soon put his belonging away nicely. His tools and small gadgets that he made in one drawer, and clothes in another. The ventrexian soon fell onto the bed that he was provided, as he stared into the ceiling.
"General Cataloupe is probably a badass. Maybe I'll strive to be like him." He was thinking out loud. "But who knows? Maybe this'll be a great experience."
He soon decided to take a quick nap before heading to training with the other cadets.
