Disclaimer: This is SO annoying, from now on, I, Kathryn Nicole Egan, own
nothing and never shall, so from here on in, I acknowledge that I do not
own TARMORA PEIRCE'S books, characters, etc., etc.,.get the bloody point
yet?!?!?! I take a fifth that I own nothing!! YOU GOT ALL THAT?!?! I OWN
NOTHING!! Improvise whatever thingys that mean I don't own TP's stuff, I
don't care as long as you know that it's NOT MINE!! So ha, you can't sue me
for the very few pennies I own!!! Hey, even if you did sue me, I believe
you'd get about 15 cents and a tiki, slim pickings my friends. What's
wushu? Is it fun? Can I join? I want to master karate, judo, jujitsu,
kung fu, kip kid, aikido, weaponry, tai chi, and a whole bunch of others
that I don't feel the need to mention right now, mostly there is five I
have on the top of my list, karate, jujitsu, kung fu, judo, and weaponry,
yeah, I know, high expectations but I would probably have at least a green
belt in all of them if I was allowed to actually practice or start that
many, but I can't, so, c'est la vie right? Oh, and Keita requested to be a
hunter/outdoors person so she'll be a spy and a mage, kapeesh?
"Is it just me, or does this feel an awful lot like boot camp? I mean, you got the trainers yellin' and spittin' in your face, you have the one million and one push-ups and burpees, now I admit, I've never been to boot camp but this has got to be close right?" Cami asked in the middle of her push-ups whispering each word after each breath.
"You get used to it, believe me," Kao said not looking as tired, but still sweating.
"Blah, blah, big karate girl in isle seven," Brekke snapped back.
The eight girls struggled to finish their pus-ups and flopped down thankfully when they finally finished, to make things easier the king hadn't wanted to part them and decided that they'd receive training together for the physical stuff. Keita had decided at the last moment to be a spy as well so had spy training in the morning and mage training in the evening. "Why did I actually VOLENTEER for this?" Keita asked the fluffy white clouds, they didn't answer much to her disappointment, "Fine, be that way!!"
"Hey!! What are you doing? You thought you got a break?!!? What do you need breaks for? To pass the time why don't you do some sit ups to pass the time? Or are you too tired?" the instructor asked tauntingly saying the last part as though talking to babies.
"Why yes I am too tired, thank you for the concern." Eve said sitting down in the soft grass dreamily.
The instructor looked like he was either going to burst out laughing or wring Eve's neck, he finally decided to pick her up by the collar of her tunic and drop her again none too gently.
"Well that was rude, and I thought we had a break-through in the new nice you." Eve mumbled angrily under her breath.
"Oh shut your pie hole Dumbass and do your sit ups." Storms snapped.
Eve made a rude gesture and Storms threw a rock at her face. Soon Storms and Eve were punching and kicking wildly at each other until the instructor pulled them apart receiving a punch from one of Storms' rogue throws.
A red mark could be seen on the instructor's face, then again, his whole face was red, and he looked mad, very mad. Eve made a little meep before he dropped them and ordered 100 more sit-ups to the already 200. The girls suppressed groans and did them without complaint.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"So I do what exactly?" Dyana asked looking at her flaming hand.
"I want you to sort of push with your mind," Numair answered.
"I do that how exactly?"
Numair threw his hands up in exasperation and walked away. "So what are you doing?" he asked Chopstix curiously as she repeatedly changed her eyes back and forth to a raven's and back. "Stop that, you're making me dizzy!" Chopstix smiled sheepishly, her eyes stopping at a raven's and looking quite strange. "Okay can you turn around or something?"
Reaper appeared to be having trouble with calling a bunch of mice from inside the walls to her and ended up throwing something at the wall. It ended up being one of Numair's vials, the wall exploded into smoke and when the smoke drifted off there was some kind of strange pink thing. "THAT'S A TUTU!!" Reaper yelled excitedly pointing at the bushy pink thing.
"Tutu? What's that? I wear that around at night, it makes me capable of flying.
Dyana snickered and said, "Why don't you," *snicker* "show us?" there were more suppressed snickers from the girls as Numair stepped into the tutu carefully not understanding. "Now hold this," Chopstix said giving Numair a little scepter. "Now you're a pretty, pretty princess,"
"NO! Wait, put this on," Reaper found a tacky gold tiara and made it bright pink with her gift and placed it on Numair's head.
Numair stood dumbly looking around at them like a confused little boy. "What? WHAT?" he asked as the girls burst out laughing. "WHAT?!?!?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When the lunch bell rang the girls ran for the food, they kicked and snarled their way to the front of the line people backing away alarmed. "This food is crap, I wish we could pizza or something GOOD!" Eve complained looking at a glob of uncooked meat or something.
"Hey, be grateful, if you saw what they give out at the cafeteria at school that my friend, would be a delicacy." Storms said pointing at the glob. Eve made a face and took an apple.
"So what do you think we're doing next?" Dyana asked curiously biting into a piece of orange.
"I dunno, does it look like I know? 'Cause I don't, if I did I'd tell you but I don't so I can't, and unless I have a sticker that says I do or something don't ask." Raen Lee ranted waving her arms manically.
"O...kay, so, what's going on it the land of unpsychos?" Eve asked turning back to everyone else. Brekke was throwing her food in the air and trying to catch it in her mouth, Kao was carving her name in the table with a large hunting knife, Katey had fallen asleep in her food, Storms was counting imaginary sheep that were running across the floor then started yelling excitedly, Dyana was foaming at the mouth, Cami's eyes were glazed over and she was moving like a zombie, Keita was destroying ants with her Gift, Chopstix was trying to stop Keita by bashing her head on her plate, Reaper was throwing stones and laughing (A/N I find that hilarious for some reason.), and Raen Lee was dancing on the table singing 'Oops I did it again' as loud as she could (A/N sorry, I find that hilarious). Eve smacked herself on the head and continued to eat her lunch calmly despite the chaos surrounding her. When they started to get a few looks and Raen Lee was singing 'Oops I Did it Again' for the third time Eve got her stuff and moved to a different table.
"Would you mind if I sat here please?" Eve asked a young boy with jet- black hair.
"Aren't you friends with." the boy indicated to the psychos that had occupied the table in the corner.
"No," She answered quickly.
"Whatever, I may as well introduce you to everyone," he said indicating to the other boys that sat with him, "I am Garb, that is Bleiz," he pointed to a boy with almost white hair and piercing green eyes, he gave a slight uninterested wave and continued eating.
"I, am Briec," another boy said with dark brown hair and brown eyes said with a disarming grin, "It's a pleasure to meet such a fine lady," he brushed his lips slightly on Eve's hand.
"PERVERT!! AHHHH!! FIRE FIRE FIRE FIRE!!" Eve yelled throwing her hand up and whacking him in the face then running away back to the psycho table.
Briec recovered slightly and turned to look at the psycho table, they seemed to be leaning in on what Eve said, the girl with the blond hair seemed to be especially listening intently, she turned slowly with a creepy grin on her face and stared right at him. Briec turned his attention away but could still feel the unblinking robotic eyes on him. (A/n I'm sorry, I was just thinking about 'Chuckie' and that's funny, suddenly someone just turning and staring STRAIGHT AT YOU with a big, weird smile plastered on their face and really big eyes that look insane? Just picture it for a second.AH HA HA HA!!)
The girls started walking towards the boy's table in a gang, they all appeared to have a black spider on their hands.(A/N sorry, heh, it's.I don't really know but it's funny alright!) "I thought you didn't know them?" The boy introduced as Garb said raising an eyebrow questionably.
"He's the one who threatened me!!" Eve said in a hushed whisper.
"What?" Garb asked.
"I DIDN'T SAY YOU COULD TALK SCUM!!" Raen Lee yelled pointing at him.
"You didn't just call me scum wench," Garb said rising out of his seat.
"And you ::so:: didn't just call me a wench." Storms said walking towards him threateningly. The two walked towards each other until they were almost nose to nose both trying to show the other down. Suddenly Garb pushed Storms and Storms retaliated by punching him squarely in the gut. Garb fell on the floor and groaned, "Okay, you win, oww, you're strong, Jesus you're really strong," he groaned some more. Storms smiled approvingly and walked away.
The rest of the boys looked at Garb squirming on the floor uselessly, "Good gods Garb, that's a GIRL!! You should be stronger than her, how hard can she hit?" Breic asked disgustedly walking up to Kao about to make a demonstration on how to punch.
When Breic went to punch Kao grabbed his arm and twisted it then punched him repeatedly all the while screaming about sexist bastards again, soon she had him under her and was pummeling him endlessly. Katey looked at her and told her to stop, then, when Kao didn't she shrugged and lunged at Bleiz, "Hey albino boy,"
"Jez, she really doesn't like men, think she's gay?" Eve asked Reaper questionably.
"I dunno, don't really care either as long as she doesn't pull a move on me." Reaper replied watching the chaos with a bucket of popcorn that appeared mysteriously.
"Hey gimmie some of that!" Eve reached for some popcorn and stuffed a handful into her mouth quite rudely.
"WHAT IS THIS!!" a voice yelled angrily over the yells, it was obvious that the girls were winning the fight dramatically and the boys were cowering.
"Oh nothing, we're just totally whipping some sexist ass." Keita said.
"What?"
"Oh, these guys thought that we couldn't hit as hard as they could and we gave them a demonstration, those two didn't participate," Raen Lee said pointing at Eve and Reaper.
The instructor turned to find Kao still on top of Briec and punching him all the while screaming. The instructor had to pick Kao up and displace her on the other side of the room. She turned disappointedly and tried to run back but was caught again and put back in the corner. Kao mumbled some more then plopped down in a chair glaring at Briec angrily, even though he couldn't see her through the large puffy eye sockets. "What do you mean 'give them a demonstration'? You're pathetically outnumbered!" he yelled coming back to the other girls keeping an eye on Kao.
"Then you must know that they're either pathetically weak, or, that we're really strong. Look around at the results for a second, what do you see?" Chopstix asked.
The instructor looked around and saw that all the boys we're either already pummeled or we're about to be pummeled. Then, he laughed, "I want you girls to help these "boys" with actually being able to fight, because from what I see.that's not happening."
"With pleasure," Kao said getting up and starting to walk back to Briec only to be pulled back to the corner.
A/N WHOO HOO!! I like updating, I feel good! *puffs chest out then stop because she doesn't feel like it anymore* so, what did you think?? If I'm placing myself in this story to much just tell me and I'll just basically pretend like I'm not even there, it's just I know that I'd do something like that.that's kind a scary isn't it? *shrugs* oh well, I'm too ill tempered, BIG DEAL!!
"Is it just me, or does this feel an awful lot like boot camp? I mean, you got the trainers yellin' and spittin' in your face, you have the one million and one push-ups and burpees, now I admit, I've never been to boot camp but this has got to be close right?"
