She had never felt less prepared for a test in her entire life. Not a clue about her final test. She needed to be at her best. However, the surrounding gloomy forest was not helping one bit.
Her examiners were leading her deeper into the forest. She did not feel right about the test. She wanted to run back home and hide under her bed covers. She knew that was not an option. Finally, after trudging for an hour through the murky woods, she reached her destination. She finally saw it – her final test. It was an antique car. Grey and red in colour, it looked in great shape other than its wheels. The wheels were not attached to the car. They were placed right next to where they were meant to be. Her examiners pointed towards the car.
“Fix it and drive us out of here.”
She had never imagined this would be her final test.
“I have never driven one before. I was not trained for it.”
The oldest examiner placed his hand on her shoulder.
“Cadet, you cannot train for everything. If you are going to infiltrate the humans, you need to improvise.”
