"Pilot Cadet Shinatose Izana," Captain Kobayashi announced through her officer's mask, "it is my honor to promote you to the rank of Pilot, with all its responsibility and privileges."
They stood in the captain's office, which was an honor in of itself; Izana knew. To have a personal meeting for such a promotion was unheard of. To the Captain's right stood her assistant and to her left stood Izana's grandmother, Yuri. Yuhata, as Probationary Commander's Aide, was also present and was holding a pilot's wakizashi, which she handed over to the Captain with a bow. The Captain in turn handed it to Izana, who accepted it with a bow.
"I shall prove myself worthy of this honor and will defend Sidiona with all my skill and life, if need be," Izana said and was shocked at how steady her voice was.
If only Nagate were there, they might not feel so much dread. Still, it was nice to have Yuhatta there at least.
