Fresh off the written exams, Kideme was at the precipice of performing the practical portion of it. The written part had been about what she expected, moderately tricky but she studied well enough. She had been notified that they were venturing to the snowy lands of tundra that was the land or iron and she was excited! Kideme had an affinity for snow and was actually forcing herself to sit down to keep from pacing. Zaiko was on her team and they'd been given an Earth scroll, meaning the two other teams of people they knew would have the other one they needed. This could get real hellish real quick.

So while Kideme waited for Zaiko to arrive and for them to be escorted off, Kideme got onto the floor and began crawling under the tables in search of "treasure". Kideme was dressed as she normally would be, but a few things were different. Rather than her usual palette of bright pastel colors, she donned black and white. Her kimono jacket was a creamy ivory shade which concealed a few of her weapons, both at the sleeve and beneath the obi. Her shamisen was strapped her to back, her hammer to her leg and her doll Winky hanging by her obi belt on the other side by a red silk cord. She also traded in her formerly painful training shoes for some slimline black jika-tabi. To set that all together, she wore her headband around her waist like a cinching belt.

While on the floor, Kideme had a small jar in hand that contained a fair amount of bugs from beetles to crickets to grasshoppers. She wasn't able to find any worthy last minute additions to the bunch apart from a few ants and a baby spider. After capping the car and strapping it back to the container belt at her hip with a twin jar, Kideme got back to her feet. She saw Shien coming in from the other end, and she couldn't help but wave to him. "Good luck, Shinny-poo!" Kideme could only hope that after so many years of working together that their time of working as adversaries would be minimal.
