So basically, Battler knew they would be fighting and they were going to Graecia. He was eager to learn the details of their mission, but it looked like he would have to wait a while for that. He hurried off to his room and packed some things he thought he might need. He figured they'd probably have access to food, but he wasn't sure if he'd like Graecian cuisine, so he packed some snacks anyway. He also gathered up any warm clothes and snow gear he could find. He packed a few other various things, and brought a book for good measure. He didn't want to pack too much, in case he had to carry this thing a long way.<br/><br/>As soon as he was ready, he hurried out the door and saw Heather already waiting for him at the gates. She'd gotten ready fast! Well, she must have had to pack quickly like this before for other missions. She must have had it all figured out by now. "So is anyone else coming?" he asked curiously. He grinned slightly, "Is Snickers coming with us?" Battler still thought it was amusing how Heather made herself an exception to every rule she could find--even having a pet on school grounds!<br/><br/>-------------<br/><br/>Ijemaru parked his car where he was fairly sure it wouldn't get towed while he was gone. He spotted the Graecian standing in the shade and joined him. The drive to the port had taken some time, there were about twenty minutes left until the boat set sail. They'd let people start boarding at fifteen.
