~ Authoress' Note~ Alright well I know I am being kinda harsh on Ross, but
to completely understand the character you have to know what she goes
through and why she is the way she is, anyways I hope you don't hate me for
treating her like crap in this Fic, but this Fic is about Boot Camp and
that is what happens there (Kinda not as bad as Ross) anyways, It will make
sense later, DON'T BE ANGRY and please REVIEW!!~
~ Chapter 15~
- They have finally let me out of that hole for a day, to heal my wounds; they've beaten me harsher than ever I can't even sit down without wincing anymore. I believe they think I won't stand up for my beliefs anymore, that I will turn into one of their faceless zombies, and live off of their command, I STILL WON"T GIVE UP I still wear the tags around my neck though they are stained with blood now. They beat me everyday just to hear my screams echo.
Though my pride has been broken and my skin bruised, my heart still bears the beliefs I've had for years. I've lost all feeling of the environment around me, yet I still linger to hug that little girl waiting for me at the group home. I only hope she'll know who I am.
I'm becoming I'll, they let me have today off to get an hour's rest, so that I don't die in the middle of their beatings. I only fear what tomorrow brings.-
Ross closed the blood stained page and marked it with the lavender ribbon it bared. She stood up, holding on to her bed post for support as she made her way to the bathroom to empty the contents of her stomach ( In other words vomit Ewe I hate that word)
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Hiei rushed from tree to tree as he made his way through the woodland.
He stopped suddenly to see a mirage of Ross on the river bank, her knelling with her head in her hands, her old self in yet she had a different face. He shook his head and the hallucination vanished.
'Why do I see that image?' he thought as he dropped out of the tree lading in the place she sat.
"HIEI, HIEI WHERE ARE YOU!" yelled Kurama approaching the fire demon.
"What's wrong home sick?" he asked.
"HN"
Kurama smiled "don't worry we only have a couple more weeks" he said now beside Hiei.
"What ever Fox" said Hiei walking away from where he first stood.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
-Pitter patter-
Rain fell onto Ross shoes, in which she stared at as, as Marshall pounded the snot out of her.
-BAM-
He hit her hard in the chest making her bang against the wooden pole she was bound to.
"I don't understand you" he said punching her hard in the face, making her spit blood to the side.
"I beat you everyday and yet you refuse to speak" He said grasping her chin in his rough hand.
"Why don't you just admit it your useless" he said as she jerked her head away from his grasp.
"You're a useless"
-BAM-
"Whore who will never become"
-BAM-
"ANYTHING MORE THAN A STREET RAT" he said slapping her in the face as she yelped.
He them kneed her in her right knee making her scream bloody murder.
"Did I forget anything" he said to Ross' fallen face.
"Oh yes, YOU ARE NOTHING" he said as she lifted her head and spat in hi face.
He lifted her by the neck and tightened his grip.
"You ungrateful bitch" he said making her struggle to breath.
"And to think I was being easy on you, I guess its time to get serious" he said throwing her about ten feet as she tumbled hitting the pole.
HE ran up and
-BAM-
kicked her hard in the face.

~ Couple Weeks Later~
"Yeah were going home!!" yelled Kuwa happily as he threw his bag onto the bus, which would take them back to WestPoint.
"Yes finally" said Kurama with a smile.
Hiei looked into the distance, Kurama glanced at him.
"What is it?" asked Kurama to the preoccupied Hiei.
"Hm, nothing" he said now facing him.
"Well we have abou-"
"HEY GET BACK HERE" screamed a voice in the distance.
"What the"
-Bam-
The voice was quiet. The entire camp looked in the distance to where the sound had come.
"What the hell was that?" asked a confused Kuwa.
"I'm not sure" said Kurama, and then a figure began to form in the fog faraway.
The camp looked in curiosity, as the fog became clearer to show a silhouette of a person walking with a large bag on their shoulder.
"What the, who is that?" asked a kid as the chatter started up.
"Be on guard" said Kurama going into ready position as did the others. The fog cleared out to reveal a tattered soldier in their greens, they were caked with dirt and grim and falling apart, there hat pulled down firmly to shadow their face, they walked with a limp without making a sound coming closer blood stains and bruises on there exposed skin were noticed.
The crowd whispered as they came closer.
"Reveal yourself soldier" said Major Martin as the figure came about 15 ft from the crown of commanders and students, their face still shadowed.
"REVEAL YOURSELF" he yelled again, but this time the person lifted there head to show there face.
The entire crowd gasped at the site, some even dropped what they were holding in their hands.
"Ross?" said Kuwa in disbelief, as the face moved to stare at him.
He just about fainted, There stood a girl of about 5'2 ( quite a bit taller than Ross was before) her face was dirty and bruised, cuts visible on the vacant skin in which bruises didn't take up, her hair was no where in site, and the only thing recognizable was her sapphire eyes staring at the group.
"Are you alright?" asked Kurama she ignored his question, as she heard another boy stutter behind him.
"B..u..t you're dead" he said stammering over himself, she grabbed him by the shirt collar, this was the boy who had made fun of her before, she yanked him to her face making him pale, she dropped him to the ground as he clumsily got up and ran behind the crowd, she moved passed the boys and took off the army bag she wore over her shoulders, throwing it on the bus. She was about to board the bus leaving the shocked crowd, when a gun fire was heard, she stopped having only one food aboard.
"GEM, YOU BITCH IM NOT THREW WITH YOU" said a large man approaching the crown the backed out of the way.
"GET YOUR SCRAWNY LITTLE ASS BACK HERE WHERE YOU BELONG" he said as she stared at the steps on the bus, the team looked in shock.
"YOUR NEVER GOING HOME YOU UNDERSTAND ME YOU MUTANT FREAK, UNDER MY DEAD BODY" he said pointing the gun at her as the crowd backed away even more.
"What nothing to say, oh wait that's right you stopped talking out of fear" he said, making the crowd look back and forth between parties.
"How long has it been about four months right, or did I loss count" he said grinning and laughing evilly as he saw her face turn into hate.
"What no protest, alright LET ME PUT YOU OUT OF YOUR MISERY" he said shooting the pistol, as the crowd scream.
"And now you're dead" he said as the smoke kept her from view.
The smoke cleared and there stood Ross her blade drawn, with the bullet sticking out.
She pulled the bullet out and as she watched him gave at her in disbelief.
She looked up and pointed the blade at him; (though she was about 15 feet away) He stammered back, she gave him a glare with icy eyes and shielded her sword, boarding the bus.
"Wha.., what just happened?" asked Kuwa
"Im not sure" said Kurama
"I know" said Hiei they stared at him.
"She won" he said as, they turned to the man before, and then he tumbled over to the ground blood staining the floor scarlet.
"What... When did she do that?" asked Kuwa as Kurama pulled him on board and the bus took off, the commanders circled the fallen Major Marshall.
