Hi, the idea behind army training is to train in, not train out. My advice would be to work on your fitness in the next month - you;ll be surprised how fast it comes. Think about downloading the 100% armyfit app.
If you cannot pass the fitness tests you will start doing remedial fitness training and the physical training staff will look at giving you a fitness programme. It is highly unlikely you would be 'kicked out' of basic training due to fitness! Ultimately you passed the required fitness to get to basic training in the first place!
