        Today was our first day of training and my friends and I were so excited. I couldn't wait, Four said we were going to learn basic fighting defensive techniques, how to use a gun, and throwing knives. we were throwing knives when I felt eyes on me. I had a sudden sinking fear that It was Eric, then quickly let go of my fears and threw the next knife. I drew back my arm to throw another one when he grabbed my wrist. I had been throwing knives so long that my tank top got pulled up a little above my hip. His left hand came to my waist and grabbed it roughly. 

        He kicked my feet into a different stance and came close to my ear. ¨Your doing it all wrong. Your aim is off, your stance is off, and your not throwing hard enough.¨ He said. ¨I'm going to throw one with you. Then your going to throw one on your own. Got it.¨ His breath was warm on my neck, and I inhaled sharply as he grabbed my hip harder. 

        Before we threw it, he whispered, ¨Look at where you want it to go. Then throw.¨ I nodded in understanding as I felt his warm breath on my neck. We took the position of we had earlier and threw it. It hit dead center and I smiled. He backed away and told me to throw one on my own. I missed the feel of his hand on my hip though and I don't know why. So I threw, and it hit dead center for once. I squealed with joy and turned to look at him, for the first time I wasn't fully afraid of him. He had helped me. I don't know if he did it of his own free will or because he thought I was pathetic, but either way.

     "Thank you." I whispered looking at the ground. He nodded and walked away. The rest of the day had flown by, but for some reason everytime I looked up or at my friends I felt a set of eyes on me. I knew he was watching, but why me? Either way, now I could throw a knife. As Jax, Tanner, and I walked back to the accomidations and I only wanted to take a small nap. But, I ended up waking up in the middle of the night. I was walking anywhere I could to get my head cleared from the nightmare I had. 

        I ended up walking to the chasm, looking over it I wondered how many have actually died here. As I looked on my thoughts wondered back to my nightmare. My dad was beating me like usual, only this time he succeeded and killed me. He kept hitting me telling me to wake up and take my punishment for being selfish. I wasn't being selfish, I just stood up for what I believed in. Nobody was going to stop me. As my thoughts kept racing, what I didn't realize was that I was climbing on the railing, and looking at the chasm now I figured I could find peace if I just jumped and ended it right now. So I did just that I jumped.
