Magnus had always understood the implications of joining the Sons of Korhal, but today was the day. Today was the day Magnus was finally old enough to join the infantry. Magnus decided to take the magnet bus with his friend Kaitlin Waverunner. Kaitlin was one of Magnus' best friends, and they had always dreamed of joining the infantry together, They would both start as lowly Cadets, then finally move up to a Battlecruiser Captain. When Magnus got to the station he waved goodbye to his parents, picked up his worn old bag that his grandfather gave him after he got back from the Third War. As Magnus sat after his security check, He began thinking about what he and Kaitlin were going to do, after they got through boot camp. After the second Mag-Bus passed through the station at 09:30 He heard Kaitlin's voice, as he turned to look at her, the video display module on the wall turned on and General Nivanche began talking about why a good citizen should join the Infantry. When Magnus turn to look toward all he seen was a blur and he reacted and caught Kaitlin. Magnus offered to take Kaitlin's bag, and offered to buy a Caff-bomb from the Vending machine. Kaitlin sat down next to Magnus on the cold metal bench, as they sat there and chatted the station started to fill up with some other cadets and a few war protesters. Magnus and Kaitlin decided to walk closer to the gate, where they would catch the 501st dropship to the boot camp in central Brontes. When they got closer to the gate the ship came in and they were allowed on the ship first, so they took the very back seat because nobody would sit near them. Kaitlin and Magnus sat there and talked about how awesome it would be after they had finished officer training. As the ship took off at exactly 10:45 there was a little turbulence, but not too bad. After about 4 hours both Magnus and Kaitlin decided to sleep because they figured they would not get much sleep in boot camp. After about 7 hours both of them woke up because several people in front of them started singing old war song, but that was ok because they were only about 2 hours away.
