10. Chapter 10

Marina POV-

I slowly but surely open my eyes. I check the clock, 6:30. Just in time for training with Nine. I still haven't fully gotten over the whole me being Pittacus and me having to kill Setrakus thing, but I guess I will.

I throw on my training clothes and go down to the Lecture Hall to see Nine lifting weights.

'You're late'.

Yup.

'Ok, first things first my anti-gravity legacy'. Imagine walking on a wall now put your foot on the wall.

I do as he says.

Now put your other foot on the wall. Next thing I know we're both standing sideways on a wall. Good he says grinning. Now do that 50 more times. I groan.

Once I'm done we move onto his super strength legacy. We start out slowly and I realize that's it's like lifting a glass of water. We go onto heavier weights like 250 pounds and yet it stills feel like nothing. We move onto chin ups and sit ups and finally we're done.

Good job today Marina he says.

Thanks Nine, I say hugging up.

As I walk out I turn around and say you know I'm sorry if I made you feel bad earlier because of combat training.

No problem Marina I guess I just felt insecure.

If it makes you feel any better you're still my best friend I say winking at him.

He laughs and says it does.

I walk out of the training room feeling a sense of accomplishment knowing I have mastered two new legacies.
