Common Ground

"Hey, you need to watch the tunnel. It's your shift." Callie said.

Andrew nodded and got up.

"Thank you!" Callie called after him.

Andrew just shrugged and walked off.

"Yeah, well," Michael mumbled. "I want to be a doctor. Means no hurting and killing."

Callie turned back to him. "Good luck with that." she muttered.

Michael glared at her. "I'm going to be a doctor and you won't stop me."

Callie threw her hands up in mock surrender. "Fine. You want to get killed by the monsters, you go right ahead."

Michael nodded, and glanced towards the barrack. "Which one am I in?"

"You're in the probatio right now." Callie said. "Boys, which is on the right."

Michael nodded. "I don't need to fight. Do I? You have medics in war.mm"

"Yes. We have medics." Callie said with a sigh and rolling her eyes.

"Exactly. I'll be one of them," Michael nodded.

Callie sighed and shook her head. "Look. If you need protection or something, I'm over there." she said, pointing at the barracks that had an "I" on it. "Left side." she told him and walked towards the building.

Michael nodded slowly, and turned towards his barracks, but swivelled back as a voice yelled, "Caleeeeeeeeenaaaaaaaaa!"

Callie heard the voice and stopped in her tracks. "Ah s***." she cursed under breath and turned around.
Dean watched the other people with narrowed eyes.
Sam just looked around quietly.

Gabriel barrelled into her with a whoop, hugging her tightly before ducking back in case she swung at him.

"You twerp." she said and swatted at him. "What are you doing?" she asked and noticed two boys. "Is he bothering you?" She wrapped an arm around Gabriel's neck and ruffled his hair.
Dean smirked and glanced at Sam who had wide eyes.

"Hey!" Gabriel protested. "I'm- hey!" He ducked out from under her grip. "They're new, okay? I was bringing them in before they got eaten!"

Callie chuckled. "Well welcome. I'm Callie. One of the Praetors here. If you need anything, I'm in the first cohort barracks or wandering around the camp." she said. "And don't believe anything this kid tells you." She pointed at Gabriel and narrowed her eyes.
Dean chuckled and even Sam cracked a smile.

"Hey!" Gabriel poked her with a pout. "Just because I'm small, you think I'm inferior!"

"No. Just because you're a twerp I think you're inferior." Callie told him.

"I'm not a twerp," Gabriel huffed, pushing her.

Callie raised an eyebrow. "Remember what happened the last time you pushed me? I'm not afraid to throw you over my shoulder again." she said.

Gabriel stepped away from her. "She's mean," he told Sam.
