~ Chapter 5~
Ross walked back alone, she was soaking wet and it was freezing "Damn of all seasons it had to be winter" she said as she clutched to her wet uniform.
~ Mean While~
"Wow I can't believe you hit him" said Kuwa.
"Yeah well I told you he wasn't intimidating and besides you don't just kick someone into a lake in the middle of winter." He said as they left the Sergeant and began to walk to the cabin.
"Yeah well I still can't believe the fool jumped in after her" said Hiei as he looked at Kuwa who was shivering.
"Yeah ell I couldn't just let her drown" he said.
"I fell as if there is something more to this" said Kurama.
"Yeah like she's hiding something, I mean she just doesn't show respect to just anyone he must have some serious dirt on her" said Yusuke.
"Indeed" they made their way to the cabin and entered to find it deserted.
"Funny where could she be?" asked Kurama.
"Try the bathroom" said Hiei as he looked in the direction of steam coming from behind the tattered curtain.
Then they heard coughing, and the water turn off.
~ Inside~
Ross held her head under the scolding water; she coughed and saw blood trickle down the drain.
"Great." she thought as she heard the door shut to the cabin. 'I bet they are going to be wondering why I acted the way did, oh well it will only get them in more danger than they already are' she thought as she coughed hard once, more blood making its way down the drain, she turned off the water and stepped out.
"Are you alright?" asked Kurama.
She smiled 'always the one to worry about everyone but themselves' she thought as she tousled her hair which became curly at the touch 'wish I wasn't so selfish and could think of others, of well what can I do' she thought.
"Yeah im fine be out in a minute" she said, she stepped onto the cold tile from outside the shower and made her way to a bench by the sinks she sat and took out some bandages, as she began to bandage her bare feet, and the funny was she had light pink painted toes, though no one would ever see them, she tightened the binds on her feet and tied them off.
"Never did have good feet" she said softly as she pulled on some boxers and tied her hair up in a low wet pony tail.
'damn its cold' she thought as she untied the towel hiding her top she sweat shirt from the counter, she looked at her back, the rose glared at her, it was still as fresh as the day she was born.
'Why did I have to be reborn with that?" she thought as she slipped on the sweat shirt.
'Oh well I guess I just can't let them see it is all' she thought as she sneezed. She stepped out of the bathroom to a shivering Kuwa and a worried looking bunch of spirit detectives except for Hiei of course.
"Kuwabara there should be some more hot water" she said as he rushed to the bathroom. She shivered and sat on the lower bunk, she sighed.
"Are you alright, are you sure you are not ill" said Kurama with a worried expression.
"Yeah im fine, just you know a little freaked out is all" she said with an actual grin, she spoke in a sweet expression.
She took out her watch it was already 11 pm she yawned and climbed to the top bunk.
"You know, I don't think that Brown is going to be too happy with us tomorrow" she said yawning and closing her eyes, she was in a scrunched up position.
"Yeah, thanks to the detective" said Hiei now in his bed.
"Hey I didn't see you do anything to help" said Yusuke protecting himself.
"Hn like I want to save that fool" said Hiei.
"Hiei apologize" said Kurama.
"No Kurama why should I she hasn't done anything to gain my respect, all she is to me is dead weight" he said, Ross just listened to the conversation.
"Hiei"
"Goodnight Fox" said Hiei now facing the other way.
'Just like the old days, I never did gain your respect did I' she thought as she drifted off to sleep.
~ Morning~
-Knock, Knock-
"He, he who's there?" asked Kuwa in his sleep.
A figure entered the quarters and turned on the lights.
"I want you all up and ready in five minutes" said an unknown voice, he shut the door, as the boys stirred.
Ross got up and sniffed "I need some Alka Selzer she said getting up and going to the bathroom, she tripped over Kuwa's outstretched foot in the process.
"Damn" she said picking herself off the floor.
~ Outside~
No one was outside their quarters so they decided to go to breakfast; they walked the long walk to the mess hall in silence.
They entered to see that the entire canteen was full of cadets; they looked up and began to laugh.
"Hey look its Princess Ross" said one with a grin.
"Yeah she's so perfect she can't even get her feet wet" said another.
They looked at her she just walked over to the lunch line and took a tray out, I tem looked in disbelief, Ross had on her camouflage uniform and combat boots her hair was in a low pony tail, hidden underneath her cap, she slouched a little she was by far the shortest person in the camp, she got food and made her way to a vacant table, when..
'BAM'
She was tripped landing on the floor head first in her oatmeal, the team tried not to laugh as the entire camp roared, face down in her tray her face turned beat red, she stood up, clutching her fists she went stomped over to the culprit of the crime.
" No little girls on my camp" said a large guy with brown shaggy hair, she screamed punching him so hard in the stomach that she sent the entire table flying to the opposite wall, she sat there breathing hard her face as red as a cherry, the entire canteen went quiet.
"ANYONE ELSE WANT A PICED OF ME, WELL COME ON AND GET IT!" she yelled clutching her fists, the team never saw her like this before she seemed past angry.
"WELL ANYONE?" she asked as the canteen stayed silent "THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT WHEN YA'LL GET SOME BALLS I'LL BE WAITING!" she yelled stomping out the door while wiping her face.
"Wow way to go" said a guy to the outstretched guy on the floor, he groaned.
"Yeah I guess the rumors are true" said another going to his friend but was stopped by Yusuke clutching onto his shirt.
"What rumors" he asked the shaking boy.
"Well that, she has a wild temper is all I didn't mean nothing by it" he said cowering, Yusuke dropped him.
He nodded to the others who followed him to the door until a large figure met in their path.
"Hey get out of our way" said Yusuke; the guy was in uniform, he was about Kuwa's height he was large and plump he had beady blue eyes, he stared down at them.
"I am Major Martin, since Brown is out of commission I will be your commanding officer from this point on" he said towering over them.
"I will meet you in 2 minutes understand I will deal with Gem myself" he said they nodded and went outside.
Martin went out to the back and saw Ross sitting on the deck her feet handing over.
"Cadet" he said getting her attention, she sat up and turned around.
"I will require you to clean up the Mess Hall tonight for your actions understand?" he asked.
"Yeah sure what ever" she said getting up.
He looked down at her, she looked fragile and weak but he knew better, hell from what he just saw.
"Yes, Sir" she said with respect, which took him from surprise, she saluted him and mad her way down the stairs to meet the others in the front.
~Out front~
"Now I can see that you survive Brown, he is the worst of your worries if you are not careful this camp will chew you up and spit you up and spit you out" he said as they stood at attention.
"Here" he said throwing each of then a chain with tags at the end of them.
"What is this?" asked Yusuke.
"There you're dog tags learn them, live them, love them because you will be wearing these for the remainder of your stay here" he said as they investigated them.
Ross looked at her tag, it said her name and had a number below it some other things were present as well.
"Today we are going to the shooting grounds" he said getting their attention.
"Really alright something im good at" said Yusuke aiming his finger, they got out of the way.
"Move out" he said as they began following him.
"Great. guns what I love most" said Ross sarcastically.
~ Shooting grounds~
Martin gave them each a dismantled gun and told them to put it together, Well it didn't take long for the boys to do it, while Ross on the other hand still couldn't figure out where the handle went. Martin finally put it together for her and handed it to her, she took it (Of course unloaded I hope) and put on the earmuffs provided.
He showed them how to fire and hit the target, which was a drawn human body. The boys loaded and began to shoot, of course Yusuke was great at it and even Kuwa was getting some pretty good shots, Ross on the other hand could not get it to shoot.
"WHAT IS THE PROBLEM CADET?" asked Martin from behind her.
"Sorry, sir I think it's jammed" she said pointing it at him he ducked.
"Don't do that, give me that" he said taking it from her and looking at it he fired it hitting the target.
"Its fine cadet" he said as the firing went down.
"Oh alright" she said taking it, pulling back the firearm and then shooting she the target, but was far off from the body.
"Not a very god shot, but practice makes perfect" said Martin taking the gun and dismissing them to lunch.
"Wow, what did you shoot with your eyes closed" said Yusuke laughing.
"Ha, ha, ha very funny" she said looking up at him. They entered the Mess Hall and it went quiet.
The boy from earlier came to Ross and knelt down on his knees taking he hand.
"Please forgive me" he said with teary eyes, she looked down in shock.
"You got to be kidding me" she said taking her hand away and walking to the line leaving him on his knees.
She got her food and walked back over to the still kneeling boy, the team on the side lines; she took a bowl form her tray and poured it on his head, making the entire Canteen gasp.
"How do you like it?" she asked evilly looking down on him.
She passed him still on his knees whipping the portage away, and sat at a vacant table, as she began to eat.
"Uh." said Kurama, as Yusuke and Kuwa rolled on the floor in fits of laughter.
