DPOV (TWO WEEKS LATER)

We just finished doing 200 jumping jacks. We had found out that once we got the hang of things Mr. Nett would raise the number of things you did. So now we are at 200 jumping jacks, 200 crunches, 220 push-ups. Good thing is we go down a little in pull-ups. We do about 50 now.

"Okay, you are dismissed! Belikov, in my office now!" Everyone trudged towards the locker room and I dragged my feet towards Hard Ass's office.

"Sit." He commanded. I complied, to exhausted to think of a smart ass comment.

An envelope was thrown down on the desk in front of me.

"What is this?" I asked.

"A letter."

"I see that! I mean from who?"

"The military. It is from a soldier." I hid the excitement that coursed through me.

I nodded, "Okay." I picked it up and held it in my hand.

"Is that all?"

"Yes, you may leave." I nodded and sprinted to the locker room. I didn't even bother changing and showering, I picked up my bag and ran towards my dorm.

I jogged to my bed and tore the letter open.

Dear Dimitri,

Thank you for the letter, it means so much to me… If you don't mind me asking, what did you do to get sent to Military School? You don't have to answer if you don't want to.

I am sure they aren't trying to be mean. They are trying to get you ready to got into the Military, or in your case, punishing you.

And I am glad that you have respect for us, but you should respect everyone. Down the road you will regret not respecting them.

And it was very hard to leave everything behind… I was inspired to do this because my parents were both in the Military, before they died in battle.

Your teacher is right, we do more intense training than you. It is about two times amount of what you do, and we do two minute drills where we have to do as many push-ups in two minutes, then pull-ups, than jumping jacks, than crunches, etc. We are also timed at how fast we can run two miles.

Thank you again for the letter. It brightened my day a lot, and I am hoping to hear from you in the future.

Wow, she sound amazing already.

Maybe this punishment won't be so bad after all.

What did you think? I know it is short, but as I said before, I am planning on doing shorter chapters, so it will help me update more often and such.

Review please!
