Amara's alarm went off. "Hey it's four o' seven in the morning and this is Whisker-biscuit Willis for 101.5 KFOH The Real, and I wondering who many celebrities are mu…" Amara's fist pounded on radio until it was off as she hesitantly got out of bed.

Rubbing the sleep out of her eyes, she noticed Marc was still asleep, she sat in bed and for a few moments just looking at him. "Is it wrong to like him, he is your friends boyfriend." She quickly dismissed the thought, walked over to him, and shook him, "Marc…Marc, get up, you don't want to be late for you first day of training do you?

Marc opened his eyes slowly, smiled as he saw Amara's face. "G'morning" he said sleepily climbing out of bed.

"What're you smiling at?" She asked warmly.

"You're a lot better to look at than Bobby." He replied.

"Thank you," Amara said confused, "I guess?"

"Bobby woke me up yesterday, so he's the first thing I saw when I opened my eyes."

Amara laughed, "Scary." Marc agreed.

-

In the hall, Amara and Marc joined up with the others to go to their training course.

"So what are these training sessions about?" Marc asked.

"Usually they're pretty tough…" Roberto started, "But now Beast's teaching." Jubes finished his sentences.

"Aye, he's much easier then Logan." Rahne said.

Marc was confused. "Who?"

"Yeah he's a real hard ass." Ray added and they all had a laugh, except Marc who was still in the dark.

"This Logan guy seems like a real SOB." Marc said.

"Ahem!" A ruff voice called, "Where's Fyreside?"

"Who's this guy?" Marc whispered.

Bobby cupped his hand to Marc's ear. "That's Logan."

Marc gulped. "Yeah that's me, did I do anything?" He said cautiously.

Logan thought for a second, "No not that I know of yet kid, come with me."

Marc pointed towards the others, "But I have got to…"

Logan growled. "I wasn't asking."

Ray was trying not to crack up. "He's screwed."

-

A Turret appeared next to Rouge. "Roll!" Scott yelled.

She rolled, just before Scott's optic blast wrecked it. "Waited 'till da the last second Cyke?" She said angrily.

The danger room was on "Danger Level 7" as suggested by Cyclops, who thought the exercises were getting too easy. And much to the dismay of the others, he decided it without consulting them.

"Scott, thiz iz a good idea how?!" Kurt mocked, as he was almost hit with a mace-like sphere.

Jean overheard the argument as she was using her powers to shield Spyke as he was attempting to take out a few mech-arms. "Could you save the heckling for later," Something caught her eye. "WATCH OUT KITTY!" She cried and took her attention away from Evan who was now vulnerable and was struck by a swinging horizontal pillar.

Kitty phased herself through the oncoming tentacle. "Thanks Jean."

"Yeah, Thanks Jean." Evan Grumbled, rubbing his head.

-

"Where are we going?" Marc asked as they walked through the corridors.

"Outside."

"It's v-e-r-y cold out there?"

"I'm trainin' you so what I say goes."

"Yes my master." Marc, to himself.

Logan gave him a stiff glare. "SOB, huh?"

Marc rubbed the back of his neck and flashed a nervous grin. "So you heard that?"

"Yep."

"Oh…is that why we're going outside?"

"Yep."

-

Hank McCoy stood facing the group of new recruits who were in the underground training center. "Since Wolverine is busy I'll be," He paused and scanned the group before him, "Iceman, Jubilee pay attention!"

The new couple still was chatting until Ray elbowed Bobby in the ribs. "Oow what did you do that…oh Sorry Mr. McCoy?"

"Please listen for now on?" They all nodded, "That's better, today we will be working on foot work and agility."

All of them groaned simultaneously.

"Ah man, not those stupid 'tire drills' again." Ray protested.

"No Berzerker, Soccer."

Roberto's face suddenly lit up. "Sweet."

-

"It's starting to snow." Marc announced as he was stretching.

Logan just growled.

"Ok-a-y?" Marc mumbled to himself.

Logan directed Marc to the course. "This is your first run through so I'll go a little easier on you. Get ready."

Marc shook his head rapidly. "Wait I don't know what to do."

"Three."

"Logan?"

"Two."

"Wait?!"

"One"

"What?!"

"Run!"

-

"Hustle people, keep moving." Hank said with his hands on his hips, "Jubilee stop tickling Iceman; Cannonball stop getting tangled in the net; Sunspot pass the ball!"

"Okay Coach!" Roberto said as he flipped the ball with his feet to Berzerker, "Ray catch!" The ball hit Ray in the head.

Beast heaved a sigh. "At least they aren't using their powers."

Just then, "Ahh Multiple!" Ray roared holding his leg. "You kicked my shin you little."

Jamie gave an rueful smile, "Oops?"

Ray Growled and blasted Multiple, causing several Jamies to be launched in every direction, including at Beast.

Beast, on the ground now, picked the clone off his chest. "I spoke to soon."

-

"How much longer?!" Marc panted.

Logan looked at his stopwatch. "Thirty seconds!"

Marc let out a relieved sigh. "Finally."

Then out of nowhere, three sandbags came at him. The first hit him in the back; the next nicked his arm; and the last hit him in the…let us just say he was not wearing a cup.

"Shh!" Marc grunted doubling over.

Logan smirked. "Time! Nice run kid."

"Really?" Marc asked shivering lying face first on the cold snow.

"Nope. What's wrong kid, you cold?"

"Yeah when it's cold my body hurts."

"Well get used to it, Come on lets go."

Marc moved to his feet. "Where we going? Inside? Are we done?"

"Yes and in your dreams." He answered his questions in order.

-

Marc walked into his room and plopped on the bed. He had been pounded, prodded, smacked, slammed, bruised, battered and sliced. He turned to look at Amara's clock, moaned, "Six Thirty-nine.", and fell asleep.

-

"Marc get up!" Amara yelled from across the room.

"It feels like I have only been sleeping for a second." He thought and looked over at the clock again. "Six Forty." He pulled the covers over his head and mumbled something.
