Marina POV-

My eyes snap open I can't sleep. I feel Eight's arm wrapped tightly around my waist.

I use telekinesis and slowly lift his arm off of me. I push the sheets back and realize i'm still not wearing a shirt. I grab Eight's shirt and put it on then pad quietly down the stairs for a glass of water.

I hear a creak: the Mogs how could they find us?

As soon as the figure comes out I form an ice dagger in my hand and race up to it.

Only to realize it was only Six. Ugh sorry Six I thought you were a Mog. That's fine we need to be on guard like that though. So what are you doing down here? She asks me. Couldn't sleep. You?

Same.

Wait a minute Marina are you wearing Eight's shirt? She starts wiggling her eyebrows.

Yeah Bu-

Did you guys?

God, no Six I say blushing.

Yea Marina and if he tries anything on yo-

I cut her off he won't Six it's Eight. I say smiling.

And wait Six are you wearing John's shirt? She walks out of the room not saying another word. I can't help but grin.

I walk back up to the room to see Eight still sleeping soundly I brush his curls out of his face and kiss him on the forehead. Later in the night I still couldn't sleep tossing and turning that's when Eight grumbled stop moving. Sorry I whispered and then he pulled me closer feeling the warmth of his bare chest I finally fell asleep.

Eight POV-

I wake up to see Marina's legs draped over me and I couldn't help but smile. She has my shirt on so I put on another one. Everybody was in the kitchen and then Marina walked out too.

Hey I kissed her on the cheek.

Hi she said smiling.

Then Nine said the thing we were all dreading.

TRAINING TIME! He shouted gleefully everybody groaned at the same time and Nine was so happy. We all filed into the Lecture Hall getting ready. So, Nine said one on one. Eight with Six, John with Ella and finally he said me with Marina.

Six POV-

Marina's jaw dropped why me? But she knew good and well why. When Eight died she trained nonstop. She didn't even sleep she was training so much and then she became so strong she could take on Nine and I.

And she won.

She must've forgotten now that's Eight back but Nine just wanted to test her. Everybody started with their partners.

I beat Eight and surprisingly Ella beat John by using her Aeturnus but Marina and Nine were still going on. Everyone watched how gracefully they moved back and forth. Nine would do a kick and Marina quickly blocked it. He then got her in a headlock and she thrust her head back headbutting Nine whose nose was bleeding now. She turned around kneed him and then when he didn't see it coming she formed an ice shield around her fist and punched him so hard you could hear his jaw crack. Everyone stood there jaws dropped.

Marina won.

Nobody ever beats Nine in hand to hand combat.

She healed his jaw and walked out of the training room.

Nine was even silent but scowling because someone had finally beat him.
