The other members of group one followed suit of Yuki's example and swiftly broke free from the zip ties that bound their arms behind their backs. They went on to complete the challenge that, at first, seemed somewhat easy. But after blunt realization, they came to the fact that they couldn't always rely on teammates, that in the field if teammates weren't there, you can only depend on yourself. Your own capabilities will get you much farther in this world than relying on the capabilities of others. That being said, there are still some agents who thrive on assistance from the team rather than what some would call solo work.
That trial was the first of many for group one. Other assignments were given to them throughout the next few weeks, such as traffic and even helping with active petty crimes. They've come to realize the chemistry they had together as a group, that being said, Anastasia remained silent almost all the time throughout this entire process. The highlight of this two-week time of assistance was actively stopping a robbery within a jewelry store, which contained a pursuit and arrest of the suspect. These assignments became somewhat trivial after some time, that is until something much more sinister happened within Star City.
The loud sound of banging within the night awoke Yuki. It sounded like something similar to a jump scare within horror movies, good thing Yuki doesn't dream much as of late, there's only been so much on his mind.
What the hell is that..., Yuki thought.
"Yuki, it's me!" Someone shouted through the door, it was obvious that it was Alex on the other side.
It took quite some time for Yuki to get out of bed and answer the door, who wouldn't act grudgingly slow being awoken in the middle of the night by the sound of fireworks exploding in the walls. Alex was dressed in his IJA jacket that was given to everyone within group one.
"What is it?..."
"Martin told me to get everyone up and to the station immediately."
"Martin?"
"The proctor, that's his name."
"Mhmm..." Yuki groaned. His only desire was to lay on a soft pillow, but he knew that was impossible right now.
It didn't take long for Yuki to get dressed and head out with Alex and the others to the police station where they met Martin outside. They still were tired and clueless as to what was so important that they had to be woken up in the middle of the night.
"Alright, I have to take you everywhere I go and I have to go to a crime scene, so we're all going together." Martin said.
This wasn't something he felt necessary, but this was part of their training, he had to keep these kids closer to him than his pistol for the month.
"Crime scene? It's three o'clock in the morning..." Yuki groaned.
"Crime doesn't stop whenever we want it to." Martin replied.
