Chapter 4

" What are we going to do?"

" This is bad, this is very bad."

I felt my side. They stole my sword. There was nothing else to do... I sat up quickly. The girl with black curly hair and the Cori were with me. The girl was pacing . The boy sitting on a stool with his head in his hands.

My head throbbed.

" Whoa, not so fast." The girl said and rushed to my side. " Hi, I'm Courtney."

I laid back down...

" What happened to me?"

The boy with brown hair came in. " Well technically... When you were trying to kill Cori... You stepped between two rocks got your foot stuck and twisted your ankle. Then you fell and your head hit a very sharp rock and punctured your skull."

At that moment I realized the throbbing in my ankle, which was wrapped also.
A boy poked his head through the tent entrance. " Then blood started gushing out and you started having random spasms..."

" Jimmy!" The girl named Courtney yelled.

" Did that really happen?" I asked.

" Well sort of but..."

" Why are you being so nice? She tried to kill us!" Cori said.

" She's been unconscious for two days!" Courtney yelled back.

"Ugghhh" I groaned and blacked out.

Chapter 3

I was there for 10 and a half years. Training. Kabobing dummies. I was the only girl  training to fight. The rest of the girls were being taught to be spies. Wearing corsets and beautiful dresses. When I was ten I wondered why I wasn't like them. But Xivvu set me straight.

" If you were like those other girls you wouldn't be able to see me!"

Not that this was the most tragic news of my life. But Uncle Xivvu was the only person I knew personally.

When I was 12 I started training other students. At 13 I was working with the adults spearing hay. And at 14 I was training the adults. I'd been training them till my 16th birthday. When Uncle Xivvu told me it was my time. I would be sent on a mission. I was to find a boy name Corinath. I was told his features and was brushed away.

So I was on a mission. With one measly idea of the guy I was sent to kill.

I searched for him for seven months! When I finally found tracks. The tracks I was anticipating...

And then it all happened so fast...

I popped out of the woods and drew my sword. Corinath shouted orders and the girls started running towards the lake. The four boys waiting for me to make the first move.

After a few cuts with my sword, the three other boys were given orders to follow the girls.

The boy name Corinath and I clashed swords for awhile. He was good... Really good. But I kept up. At about the point were neither of us could take it any longer. He dashed away following the others...
