As the training session ended, Keith looked at Kali's squad, the first to complete the assignment. This time, they had deliberately assigned her several cadets whose results were less than impressive.

Kali herself stood out most of all. Whether it was her movements with the Omni-Directional Mobility Gear through the woods or the fluid way she handled her blades, she was completely different from the Kali of a month ago.
