Today the Cadet Corps were given a wilderness activity, in which they were to navigate the desert on horseback with a time limit. They were split into two teams, one led by Marco with Armin tasked as recording and evaluating each member's individual performance. The other lead was lead by Thomas and Mikasa was tasked as recording and evaluating each member's individual performance
On Marco's team was Eren, Armin, Tim, Mina, Christa, Jean, Connie, and Sasha. Over on Thomas' side, his team included Mikasa, Jason, Reiner, Bertolt, Annie, Nack, Samuel and Daz
Armin looked up from the clipboard in his hands to look at each of his teammates. Tim was the only one looking around the forest with calculating eyes as if waiting for something to happen, while everyone else seemed to be bored
"So... We're not allowed to rush this?" Marco spoke up
"Right" Armin replied
"We'd also be stupid if we did. We can take our time" Jean said
"You don't know your lower limit. Jean, if you're going to take it slow, then I'm going ahead" Eren said as he began to speed up
"Wait, Eren..." Armin called out
Tim was heard sighing "Is this how Dick feels when Damian and I argue each other" he softly spoke as everyone but Eren and Jean wondered who Dick and Damian were
"Extra effort here won't get me into the Military Police" Jean said in a low voice
"It would be great if time passed faster in this case" Connie suddenly said
"You got that right... we have a long road ahead of us" agreed Sasha
"This is so tiresome" Jean grumbled
"Complaining won't make things get better" was all Tim said as he moved towards the front
Meanwhile with the second group, Jason was utterly bored to death. He shouldn't have listened to Tim 'You wanted action, might not be those Titans everyone talks about, but you'll probably get to have some type of adventure. Besides, this will be perfect to get more information about this world and look on the bright side... you'll finally get time away from me'
"If that's true, we may not be able to get there before nightfall" Jason heard Thomas say
"Then we should head eastward a little?" Mikasa was heard saying
"On the other hand, it may also be too shady" Thomas countered
Mikasa's suddenly looked up and saw a bird flying
"What is it Mikasa?" Thomas asked her
"It's nothing. It's just me..." she replied, with Reiner, Bertolt and Annie looking at her. Jason however looked in the direction that had caught Mikasa's attention and narrowed his eyes
'Something feels off about all this... keep your guard up baby bird. If things get bad, we'll need to go all out' Jason thought, his hand moving towards the utility belt he kept on him at all times currently hidden under his shirt
Back with Marco's group, Jean took notice of something "The lizard's joining us on the same route, huh"
"It's rare to see that" Marco agreed
"They're delicious you know" Sasha added
"What?" Christa asked
"She's taking about the lizard. I can't speak, never having tried one myself" Tim said, joining into the conversation
"They really are, Tim! My family and I use to eat them. They taste like chicken" Sasha explained as Tim couldn't exactly see lizards tasting like chicken. It was times like this where he missed Alfred's cooking... and coffee. Why was tea available in this world, but not coffee?!
