"Maybe but don't be too sure Zaki. They will probably want someone with skills helpful to scouting the world above. Think about where you're best at and highlight it." Rico was getting his mindset ready and spoke with complete focus and seriousness. Realizing this he tried to lighten up some. "uh...but this feels like an interview. I hope I can at least walk out of the room afterwards."

Rico's turn finally came. He walked in greeting his interviewers with a smile and nod before taking his seat. It was so hard to not feel vulnerable in a lone chair with 3 people looking right at him. Piscilla was in the middle of course and on her right was the head of guard- Vladic. He was in his 40s Rico thought but was in good shape and still had a personality befitting someone younger. "hah little Rico? Safe to say the sickly boy wouldn't survive out there."
"Quiet Vladic!" Priscilla spoke, "How do you demand respect from the people of this bunker when you give none in return?" Feeling he was properly chastised she spoke to Rico finally.
"Nearly everyone is trying to prove themselves today. Tell me why do you think you should be in a team heading topside?" Priscilla motioned for him to speak. Rico had to take a deep breath. He hadn't even realized that he was holding this breath the entire minute.
"Well Vladic is right, physically I'm a terrible choice to send up there. But I can handle long travel if needed. I avoid causing conflicts best I can with any group, but most of all I'm one of the most knowledgeable on any subject in this base. I've also studied the most recent maps we have of the region outside the bunker. The reason I believe I should be on a team is because I can handle the physical requirements and both read and create a new map of the terrain." His heart beat fast and he was sure that his pitch went up and down the spectrum as he spoke. The 3 were writing things down. When they all finally looked up she dismissed him. Not a single answer!
Rico came out walking a little rigid and the moment he was sure they couldn't see him from the door he held onto the wall for balance. "whew I made it through that part...Zaki good luck!"
