Someone Blue

Next Morning...

Natalia woke up at exactly 5:00 am. Her training started at 6:00 but she always forced herself to wake up WAY EARLIER then needed. She stood up, and felt cold as soon as she did. She went to the small window that was very low to where she had to crouch down to reach. She looked and saw it was snowing. The rooms did not have heaters, meaning they would be cold until the weather outside wasn't.

She let out a sigh, and grabbed her thin, but big blanket and wrapped it around herself. She walked to the small bathroom, and turned on the dim light. She took a short shower with cold water, since there was no hot water. She didn't mind, to her it was normal.

She brushed her teeth and went to her drawer, pulling out her uniform, which was just a leather, jumpsuit. She went back to the bathroom, and put it on, zipping the back up, all the way. She did two French braids in her hair, on both sides of her head,  which was mandatory. She walked back to her mattress and grabbed her leather boots. She was getting ready to grab her crossbow from the closest when she heard Nadia.

"What are you doing up so early? It's 5:30." Nadia questioned yawning and sitting up, stretching out her arms.

"Training starts at 6:00." Natalia replied.

"When am I gonna get that uniform?" Nadia said.

She was referring to the one Natalia was wearing.

"Nadia, we talked about this. You will get yours when you become advanced." Told her.

Nadia sighed, looking down.

"It's not fair."

"Not everything is."

Nadia rolled her eyes.

Natalia grabbed her crossbow, putting it in her bag filled with equipment. Swords, arrows, spears, etc.

She checked the time and saw it was 5:45.

"I gotta go. I'll see you after okay?" Natalia said.

Nadia nodded as she waved goodbye to Natalia who was walking out the door.

Nadia always looked up to Natalia. She was like, a big sister to her. She wanted to BE her.

Natalia walked out of the housing building, down the trail. She walked to lifting door on the concrete, which led to the training rooms. Soundproof, big, no rules, only one adult, that made sure you got there on time.

She lifted it up, making her way down the ladder. It shut closed and she got to the floor and started walking to closest room available. She walked in, and her neck hairs stood up.

She closed the door, like if everything was normal, when she felt someone reach out their hand behind her. She grabbed their arm, threw them over her shoulder, and held them down on the ground.

She did not recognize this boy.

"Who are you, and why are you here?" She said seriously.

He grabbed her arm that was holding him down, and twisted it, getting on top of her.

"My name is Eric. I'm your trainer." He replied.
