Kira stood in front of Casey, suddenly feeling small in the spacious room. She shuffled her feet, thankful there was no audience. Holding her hands behind her back, Kira fidgeted with her shaking hands as an irrational surge of nerves washed over her. She focused  her gaze on the podium as Casey recited the oath, and Kira echoed it back to him.<br/><span style="color: #FF80FF"> “I, Kira Ziegler,”</span>She started shakily,<span style="color: #FF80FF">“do solemnly swear that I will support and defend,”</span>Kira’s mouth was suddenly dry and she swallowed loudly before continuing, pronouncing each word clearly with a slow, deliberate rhythm.<br/><span style="color: #FF80FF">”The constitution and citizens of the United States against all enemies both foreign and domestic”.</span>She took a breath.<br/><span style="color: #FF80FF">“I will use my powers only to benefit the citizens of the same; bearing true faith and allegiance to the same.”</span>She said, her voice clear and strong.<br/><span style="color: #FF80FF">“I will save the lives of others even at the cost of my own life and will adhere to the regulations of the Federal Super Agency. So help me God."</span>Kira finished confidently, and smiled. She looked up, and seemed happier than Casey had ever seen her.
