After the initial chaos of the meeting, things had been pretty slow for Ani. She’d felt bad for the engineer who clearly wanted nothing to do with this mission but decided to focus on preparing instead of making conversation with her. After the meeting ended she’d packed up what she needed with some hesitance.<span style="font-style: italic">What did you even bring on a mission to space?</span>She packed quickly, not bringing much since it seemed like most of the medical equipment she needed would be supplied. After packing she paced a lot, going on several walks to try and burn off her nervous energy. The reality of the possibly world ending threat was starting to sink in and it was hard to be as excited as she had been.<br/><br/>Still, by the time the 24 hours were up Ani had mostly made peace with her mission. This was, although not the most natural, the next step towards being the best doctor in the world-no, solar system- she thought. If they made it back safe, and she’d make sure of that, she would be world famous.<span style="font-style: italic">The Doctor That Saved The World… nah too long.</span>As she made her way towards where the ship was, she started brainstorming different headlines for when she got back.<br/><br/>In the hangar, the S.S. Infinion was already being prepped for departure. She noticed the large guns being loaded on with an approving nod. Between her and the artillery, the crew was probably safer than anyone on earth. Still, she had to wonder what they were expected to run into out there that they would need such strong defenses. There were already two members of the crew in the hangar when she got there. Ani immediately recognized Candance from the meeting and started towards her, noting the unfamiliar soldier beside her.<br/><br/>She slung her bag over her shoulder and pushed her glasses up her nose again, flashing a winning smile as she approached them, already talking quickly.<br/><br/>“Ah, Candance, we didn’t get to talk much before-bad luck getting put on this mission by the way- and you,” she turned to Yogi, “You’re new, but with all that fancy armor you seem pretty qualified to be here. I’m Ani Pavlon, I’ll be your doctor on the ship.” She finally paused to take a breath.
