After having told Kalvin that she accepted the promotion, she was given all of the documents she would need to fill out, and information she needed to know.

"As you can see the terms are for you to work for at least two years before you decide to move away or quit." Kalvin told Amy as he stood in front of her desk.

"Okay." She rubbed her chin.

Her day at work continued the same, the only difference being that her co-workers threw her a farewell party after work, "Don't forget about us." Some of them told her before she left for the last time that day.

Tomorrow afternoon she would be leaving taking as little as possible considering that she would be living there for a few years.

'I'll probably end up buying more things there.' She thought as she finished packing a suitcase of her belongings.

Taking only the essential items and clothing she would need, she left everything else behind at home.  She made sure to pack all the books and notes that were given to her as well.

"Make sure to make good use of the gift I got you for your birthday." Johnathon said as he stood in front of the airport along with the rest of the family.

Amy shook her head and smiled, "I don't think I can, I doubt they would let me carry on a bottle of pepper spray on the plane with me.  But I will make sure to use that special pen you got me."  Among the various birthday gifts, she had been gifted a steel pen to break windows and self-defense, 'Though I doubt I'll need to use that on someone with all the training I've gotten so far.'

After many well-wishes, hugs and goodbyes, Amy finally walked further into the airport away from her family who watched as she turned a corner and left their sight.

Amy felt nervous, yet happy at the same time, 'Am I finally going to be free of that spy stuff now?  I hope so.' She thought to herself as she took off her shoes and put them into the bin to pass by TSA checkpoint along with her other belongings.

"Spread out your legs and arms as indicated there and stay still." Amy was told as she stood as still as possible as she was checked, "Okay, you can pass."

After picking up her things and putting on her shoes, Amy walked away to find her gate number and set her small medium sized duffle bag and her shoulder bag on one of the seats.

"I should go get something to eat before they close." She quickly picked up her shoulder bag and scurried along to find a place to eat considering that it was already late afternoon, and some of the restaurants in the airplane were to close soon.

Standing up from her seat, holding her ticket and passport in hand waiting to board the plane at seven that evening, she waited in line.

'I've never been in first class before.' The only times she had every traveled, Amy and her family were usually in economy tickets, 'Guess this promotion deal is pretty good then.' She handed her ticket and passport to the person scanning their tickets and passports.

"Have a nice flight."

"Thank you." Amy smiled in response as she retrieved her ticket and passport and walked through the gate to board the plane.

On and off through the flight Amy dozed off, though at times she was on her phone watching movies.  Turning phone on airplane mode then connecting to the airplane wifi to watch movies, many thoroughly took advantage of that.

'I've never watched this one.' Amy had scrolled through the many movies and shows available in excitement.

By the time that they had arrive to their destination, Amy had watched one full movie, and five shows.  Ones that made her feel more tired than she already was considering that it was late at night.

'Wait.... I didn't even ask if someone was going to pick me up.' Amy froze in her seat in panic.  She quickly stood up and waited to pull out her duffle bag from the top cabinet.

After doing so, and walking off the plane, Amy quickly rummaged through her bag trying to find the documents she was given, "Maybe I missed something." As she read she sighed, "Good someone is coming to get me."

Just like everyone else, Amy headed towards baggage claim to find her suitcase.

"Amy Beltner?" A young man asked her as she stood near glass doors looking and waiting for the descripted car mentioned in the documents.

Amy nodded, "Yes, and you are?"

"I'm Joshua, nice to meet you." He greeted, "I'm here to pick you up to take you to your housing, and on the way I'll explain some of the details you may need to know before arriving for your first day of work."

"Okay, thank you." She hoisted her duffle bag onto the top of her suitcase leaning it on the handle as she tilted it on its wheels.

"I'll take that for you." Joshua said before Amy could even started walking and heading into the waiting car.

"You won't start working right away, you'll start three days from today.  Though you will need to present yourself tomorrow to speak with management and speak about any details of your work.  Dress code is the same."

As he spoke, Amy nodded and would occasionally respond with "okay" and "alright."

"This is the place you'll be staying in." Joshua said as he pulled into the driveway of a house.

Looking away from the window she looked at Joshua, "Oh, are there other people living here from work." She nodded as she said the last part deeming it made sense.

"Inside you'll be told further information of your work." He helped her with her belongings and left them at the front door.

"You've got to be kidding me." She let the suitcase handle go, "Don't count your eggs before the chicks hatch."

Aaron was sitting in the living-room sofa seeming as if he was waiting for her, "You have a mission to do."
