CHAPTER FOURTY TWO: THE ASSIGNMENTS

As the students settled down into their seats within the expansive classroom, Kane entered the room with purpose, immediately making his way to the front. The classroom was designed to accommodate a sizable number of students, capable of comfortably seating up to 200 individuals. A large screen adorned the front wall, ready to display important information, while a sleek and modern platform stood at the center, catching the students' attention.

Resting on the platform was a tablet, waiting to be grasped by Kane as he prepared to address the class. The students, already quiet and attentive, directed their focus towards him.

"I hope you enjoyed your break," Kane began, his voice carrying a mix of authority and warmth. "Now, we are going to discern your groups right away. So, listen attentively to hear where you belong."

"Yes, sir," the students responded in unison, their voices filled with anticipation and eagerness.

Kane continued, "As I mentioned before, we have five groups, each consisting of at least 20 students. The groups will be named Alpha, Atlas, Gamma, Delta, and Zephyr."

The students exchanged excited glances, their minds racing with thoughts of the group they would be assigned to. They understood that these groups would play a significant role in their experiences at the academy, shaping their interactions and challenges.

"Now, without further delay, let's reveal the names of the students assigned to each group, Year One, Unit Alpha." Kane declared, a twinkle of excitement in his eyes.

The room grew still, and every student leaned forward in anticipation. The air crackled with a blend of nervous energy and excitement as they awaited their group assignments.

Kane began calling out the names, each one carrying the weight of newfound possibilities. The students listened intently, their hearts pounding with anticipation. With each name announced, a sense of belonging settled upon the chosen students.
