Snoring.

Lots of snoring.

Jaxen opened his eyes as he sat up, holding his chest. He felt a hand slowly caressing his back.

"Another nightmare? You okay?"

Max asked with a husky voice. His twin just chuckled nervously. "Yeah." Jaxen pants, wiping the cold sweats that are dripping from his forehead.

"Okay, everybody, up!" Jaxen flinched when the lights suddenly turned on, followed by a loud yell from the doorway.

"Ugh. What time is it." Jethro groaned from the couch. "Hmmm. It's 7 in the morning. Meaning y'all are late. You guys are supposed to be up since 6 and yet you aren't." Yyan looks at his watch.

"Who even wakes up that early?" Ytriel complains. Earning a hit on his head. "Ow!"

"Yep. That's for complaining after not listening to what I said last night."

"Said about what?" Cozen looks up to him.

"I literally told you guys and I quote "You need to wake up early tomorrow. 6 in the morning is the time, but 5 is better."" Yyan tries to remember what he 'said' last night.

"No? You literally said nothing." Jethro said, being completely sassy.

"I-I did! Didn't I?" Yyan turn to Jaxen who shrugs his shoulders before yawning.

"I thought I did." He mumbled, holding his chin while his left hand rests on his waist.

"Then it's your fault we didn't woke up early." Jethro rolls his eyes. Yyan just glares at him.

"I'm hungry." Michaelis yawned with Cozen pulling his arms up to stand up.

"Line up." Yyan commands as he blows the metal whistle from his pocket.

Cozen, Theon, Michaelis and Ytriel quickly did as told. Rising from their slumber in a hurry and standing still in a line while saluting.

Meanwhile, Jethro slowly sat up from the couch and followed the four. Jaxen on the other hand shakes Max's body to wake him up.

"Maev, wake up. It's brekky time." The youngest mumbled.

"Hmm." He extends his hand to Jaxen who grabs it and pulls him up. They then followed the rest of the boys.

"Nice." Yyan smiles. Not minding everybody's head trying their best not to fall from their sleepiness.

Theon and Ytriel rest their heads with each other. Jaxen holds Max's head and leans it on his shoulder; preventing it from hanging while Max tries not to fall back to sleep. Michaelis staring on the floor while holding the hem of Cozen's shirt. Jethro already vaping, and Cozen being the only one who's already up.

"Food's ready." Hendryx came in, holding his smile back when he saw the sleepy boys trying their best to stay awake.

"Okay, walk in a line. Find your height." Yyan faces the seven boys.

They followed instantly. Jaxen was in front, followed by Jethro, then Max, Theon, Ytriel, Michaelis, and Cozen from the very back.

"Jaxen looks so small." Yyan mumbles in his hands, but enough for everyone to hear.

"Ehem. Let's go. March, soldiers. March." Hendryx moved away from the doorway as the seven boys marched their way to the dining area.

One by one, they sat on the table. Thankfully, it's big enough for the 10 of them. One plastic-made plate on each of everyone's front. Spoons on the right, Forks on the left. Also made of plastic.
