After the first 10minutes I am already hanging but I preserve knowing if I carry on my body will jump into survival mode and it gets easier. We are actually all running at a good pace and everyone is keeping up well, no one left behind. I enjoy this! I am used to just one trainings partner, this is a whole new world for me, being part of a group. Glad I got my water bottle though as we arrive back all I want to do is run into the water to cool down. I am not alone as everyone is looking rather sweaty and hot.
“Right, get your food and we meet again at 8 on the dot, no later.” Liam just walks off as if he didn’t just run with all of us, cool as a cucumber.
The lack of sleep is not helping now as it suppresses my hunger. I don’t even bother following everyone else to get some food. Taking my trainers and socks off to walk into the ice-cold water. It doesn’t last long till it sends a chill up my spine so I just sit and relax in
I manage to push him off, pushing him away with my back legs as he presses me down to the ground with his weight. Blood dripping out his mouth as he backs up and only then I feel how hard he has actually bitten me. Limping towards my left side I need to shift my weight to the other leg, give my Shoulder time to heal and regain strength. Throbbing pain as I move to the side but I can’t show him how much it’s hurting me as he will now always go for the injured shoulder. A quick shake to make him believe I am alright, lowering my body slightly. I can feel his emotions going from dominant to insecure which could leave him now vulnerable towards my attacks. A quick pace attack and I manage to push him sideways with all the force my body has to offer. He didn’t get the chance to brace himself for the impact it had on him. Taking his eyes of me for a second which I use to my advantage, I manage to dig my teeth into his throat. I am against the Captain of the g
Just as if I knew He was coming around the corner Liam is stood with the mysterious Lady, they are just casually walking past and I stand still. Luckily, I had just in time wiped my Tears away. They turn left at the end towards the next set of stairs. I probably still looked dreadful.“Are you still awake?” Noel mind links me.“Still awake, yes... Is this what you mean with getting hurt?” I ask him straight.…“Yes.” It took him a short while to answer. “The Guy who was at Level 3 before, Ken. He told me earlier that she kept creeping in and out the Room all day long and that she tried to send him away. I was convinced it was only a matter of time.” You can hear how hard it is for him to tell me all this.Just then the door opens next to me and I try not to let it bother me. Jackson walks out slowly backwards. Just seeing him pushes all the tears back into my eyes and without even
More running on the Beach, just what I needed… right?“I better get on with it, that’s just what you get for overwhelming the King’s personal guard.” I say to myself as I walk slowly. I manage to get the reins around my head, but it doesn’t quite sit right over my shoulders, as the straps aren’t put on properly. It’s supposed to sit on me like a harness to minimise the rubbing on my shoulders but now that there is no one here to help me I have no choice but just leave it as it is. I keep saying Cart, but it kind of is like a Sledge, but with a cart top where all the logs are placed into. Maybe if I run closer to the water, it will make it a bit easier and not such a terrible load to pull the rest of the day.Having to pull it again makes me shudder. The pain I was in from pulling it for so long is only just starting to subside. Punishment when I should be celebrated. Urghhh… I let out a huff and puff as I tr
Taking it easy. Not done this in a long time usually I am one who is always busy. Yes, I was made to train by Zain but even when I didn’t have to, I was still with him, watching him or Aaron. I loved just spending time with them, watching Aaron do his drawings for example always fascinated me.Giving myself a bit more time to rest I try to lay back down in bed. I can now feel how deep the cuts must have been on my chest. Even now they feel on fire , a burning sensation under all the bandages. With it hurting so much I try to get myself to sleep clearing my mind, because if I think too much I won’t ever go to sleep and right now I need the rest.Once I drifted off, I felt at ease but it didn’t last for long.Sweating as these pictures keep popping into my head, hearing voices I have never heard before. Whispers. I can’t quite understand some of them but I try to concentrate, filtering out one that is the loudest,
“Have you found any trace of who could have handles the wolfsbane?” I ask as we sit there and I watch him stuff his face one sandwich at the time.“We found a little bottle that had wolfsbane in it, yes, but it was thrown into the bushes near the Castle wall. It broke into a million pieces so we couldn’t trace it to anyone. Hey, do you want to do something later? We are thinking of watching a Movie or something in the other Barracks this evening.” He smiles as he offers me more food. I shake my head.“I actually am going to the beach this evening, sorting some things out.” I know he will know that I will see Jackson. I knot my fingers together as I am slightly nervous how he will react.“Oh… okay. I had hoped you… Never mind.” He shakes his head slightly almost gone unnoticed.“Hoped what?” I question him.I had the hope you was done with running after him.” He si
I didn’t let go, something just clicked. We walk silently towards the Barracks when he suddenly stops. “Eliza? Let’s go this way.” He gazes towards the beach and the moon reflecting on the ocean sparkles in his eyes. I nod in agreement. He holds onto my hand tight, afraid of letting go. You can feel that something has changed, he is very calm but somewhat nervous. “Why did you run away?” He asks as he stops. “I don’t really want to talk about it. Hope you understand.” I answer looking down on our hands before trying to pull away. He holds even tighter. “Don’t always do this, stop running from me. I know what I said was wrong. Of course, I will always be there for you, always be here if you need a shoulder to fall back on. I am sorry that I let you down. I will try my hardest from now on to be the Friend that you need.” He then eases his grip on me and lets me go knowing he said what was bugging him. “This had nothing at all to do with you Noel
The excitement shifts for a moment and I feel flustered that I found myself in his arms that close to him. I quickly gather my thoughts back to what is important right now as I sit up again.“What happened?” He asks as he tries to make any sense of my erratic behaviour.I can hear his voice, this means somehow, I ended up with Jacksons special powers. How I don’t even know but it will come in handy that’s for sure.“You need to promise me to never tell another person what I am about to tell you.” I grind my teeth as I am ready to burst.“Right? I pinkie promise?” He can’t decide weather to laugh or to run away, I can see it in his eyes.“This might sound very crazy but, I have got a special Gift.” I start of slowly to hopefully get him prepared for what is to come.“I like Gifts.” He is still unsure and tries to make me laugh.“Not that kind of Gift. I
I notice a shadow jumping to the side as I turned to watch them walk away , which caught my attention immediately. I am now aware that something is off as I walk closer to the Flower shop looking at all the amazingly vibrant colours. Keeping an eye on who might be following me when I notice the beauty of a bundle of Orchids. They have me mesmerized as out of a sudden the Owner of the Shop hands me a few in a small Bunch. “Beautiful Flowers for a Beautiful Lady.” He smiles warmly at me as I gasp for air at the sight of them.“Oh, but I have no money on me.” I gesture with my hands in the air as I feel overwhelmed.“No need to pay. You made my Granddaughter an incredibly happy little Girl.” He hands me the Flowers.“Thank you so much.” Feeling very much caught out that someone would even do that. Just handing me a Bunch of the most beautiful flowers for nothing but a little Chat.I carry on to walk
