Thanks so much to the people that reviewed. I really needed some ideas of how to start this chapter and reviewers gave them to me :)
It took me AGES to update, but I was at school and stuff... I will try to update more often now, promise!
Meryl's yelling and Andy's cries managed to get the whole floor out into the corridor. By lunch time, most of campus knew about the incident and rumours were getting further and further from the truth.
Andy was in mild shock and went to the campus nurse, which made people make assumptions on what really happened.
Sammie and Kerry went down to the cafeteria, after making sure Andy was okay. A bunch of red shirts ran up to them.
"Is it true?" one asked.
"Did Andy really get brain damage and can't talk anymore?" another said.
Kerry and Sammie exchanged bewildered glances.
"Where do you get these stories?" Kerry asked. "Andy is fine, he is just a little shocked."
The red shirts walked away, clearly disappointed.
The girls went to sit at the table with Gabrielle, Callum and Connor, who were talking quietly to each other.
"How stupid could James possibly be?" Gabrielle said as they sat down. "Everyone knows Andy has got those two guys looking out for him! Kyle is off negotiating with them. Why is it that we always have to save is butt!?"
"He deserves to get battered," Kerry said. "He bashed the poor kid up; after all he has been through!"
Kyle came and joined the table, "The two sixteen year olds looking out for Andy were looking for him and I made them a deal. They leave James alone if we don't forgive him for what he did."
"That's fine with me," Kerry said, "I don't want to talk to him, anyway."
The other all agreed and looked at Sammie. She was only new to CHERUB and didn't want to seem mean to James, but he did kind of deserve it…
"Fine, I'm in."
"Good because here he comes," Connor said.
Sammie's training was starting to tire her out. She hadn't moved around much or done any physical activity in the months leading up to CHERUB.
She did have muscle, but hadn't used it much for a while and her arms were aching from doing chin-ups the other day.
She had a lesson with Mr Large on different types of weapons that she may come across in the mission, so it didn't hurt much.
Halfway through the lesson, however, he was quizzing Sammie on the names of each one so far.
She got one wrong and Mr Large told her to do 30 push ups.
She got to 12 before regretting her competition in the gym with James.
"Come on," Mr Large screamed, "Some of the youngest red shirts can do better than that!"
After about 15 minutes, Sammie finished. She stopped to have a break between each one and Mr Large was not happy.
"I think I will have a word to Mac about your LACK of fitness," he told her. "You need to do some sessions with me to raise your level of fitness."
Sammie wanted to groan but thought better when she imagined the punishment Large would give her.
"Now, what is the name of this one?" he asked.
Thanks again to reviewers!
I have a question for readers, you can put it in you review or just wait to see what I decide.
Do you want me to go into detail on training, or would you prefer to get straight into the mission?
I am not sure what you want.. but you get to decide!
Please review and THANKS FOR READING!!
