Despite her numbed emotional state, Ara was still surprised and shocked at seeing the General enter the tent suddenly. She jumped back to her feet at rigid attention, ears and face under her white fur turning dark red in humiliation as she was reprimanded in front of her peers. She knew she had done everything the General said, and now she faced a long night of introspection and reflection on all the mistakes she had made, beginning with her own attitude towards what she was really doing here, and she deserved it.
With an audible gulp of air, the vixen saluted the General with a croaked, then louder, "Yes, sir!" She took the box and exited the tent without a backward glance at her teammates. She would have to take her punishment and accept the role she was now in as a military recruit. She exited the tent, and made her way to the designated latrine area. Rolling up her sleeves and opening the box, she swallowed the lump in her throat and sighed, then picked a spot and started to work. It was going to be a long night, but maybe having some time alone with her thoughts, a chance to analyze how she wound up in this situation, would help bring her the clarity she needed to make it through the next day without any more mishaps.
