Hi. I am the semi-new girl here. My name is Kali, and I have no life, so I decided to try my hand at an Artemis fic. This more follows around the newest member of Recon, Tania Snowfall. My creativity when it comes to names is limited, and it's snowing out. Anyway, on with the first chapter!!!
Chapter One: Initiation and Introductions
Isla Aves, Caribbean Sea
Corporal Tania Snowfall had rarely been this happy. She rolled her acorns over and over in her hand, just to be sure they were real. She was in. The second female in Recon. The second person ever to tag Julius Root before he tagged her. She took a breath, finally taking in how sweet the air really was. The soft Caribbean breeze was bringing in the scent of the ocean surrounding the small Isla Aves. Trouble Kelp was next to her, laughing. Commander Root was glaring at a rock, trying desperately not to start yelling. It wasn't the he was sexist, he just didn't want another Holly. She would be worse, he realized She was part pixie, which meant that nothing was going to keep this one down. But rules were rules- he had six blue paint stains on his uniform, while the girl was clean as a whistle. She had hardly broken a sweat.
Trouble finally stopped laughing long enough to realize how familiar the situation was.
"Remind you of someone, Commander??" He asked.
Finally, Root thought, someone to yell at.
"Did I ask for your opinion, Captain????" Root roared. Trouble fell silent, except for the occasional giggle. "Didn't think so." He stomped towards the shuttle. "You two coming??"
Ops Booth, Police Plaza, Haven
Holly Short had nothing better to do, so she was in the ops booth, bothering Foaly and waiting for the commander and Trouble to return, possible with the second female in Recon.
She didn't have to wait long. Soon Trouble was at the door, being buzzed in by Foaly. Behind him was a young, stunning hybrid, her piercing violet eyes wide.
"May I introduce Tania Snowfall, the newest member of Recon." Trouble announced with gusto.
Tania rolled her eyes. Weren't Recon officers supposed to be mature???
"Shut up, trouble." Holly said. "you're already scaring the poor girl."
"He scared me in the shuttle." Tania found her voice. "Only so many times you can hear him laugh over absolutely nothing before you begin to fear him."
"You think he's scary," Holly pointed over her shoulder at Foaly. "Wait 'til you meet him."
And that was how Tania was introduced to her friends.
Well, you should know what to do now. Yes, I am old enough to takecritisim, but please make it constructive. But hey, if you are in the mood to flame, whatever. I can take it!!!!
