Stephanie's Pov...
This level of training had been intense!
So intense that most of us – actually, all of us – struggled to walk and get back to our beds. Each one of us had to sit on the floor or – if we were lucky enough to get to our beds – lay on our beds to recover from the days heat and pain-filled training. My body ached in places I never knew that could ache. One by one – after our five-minute recovery period – we sent their emails. Some were long, and others were short, but all were being sent.
Kyle sent two emails: one very short email to Lu's friends and one very long one to his own; after which he turned and limped to his bed bumping mine as he passed. I would have said something when he didn't apologize but at that moment, I was too sore and exhausted to care. I also knew that he was feeling the same pain that we all were.
It was my turn for my email to be sent; I sluggishly approached the laptop and sat staring at the blank screen; unsure of what to say or where to begin, so instead I began normally; filling them in on the passed day's events. I had to breaks in between writing to soothe my still aching limbs but managed to get it done. I read through it to make sure that nothing was left out.
'Hey guys.
I'm sorry for not emailing or sending any messages sooner but we are not allowed our phones and have now lost the privilege to send an email at least for a while.
I know; it's complicated and it sucks ass! Will fill you in as soon as I can.
Anyways, I'm doing fine and I'm actually getting the hang of it.
We spend all of our time and energy on the exercises they lay out for us, which was running, jogging, lunges - basically a whole lot of leg exercises. But this time they were brutal hey! Seriously though, how the hell do some of our peoples do this for fun?!
The only reason why it was too brutal this time was because of these stupid people, Dylann and Irina. guess what they were caught doing at night... Yep, now we are all punished as a team. Great right!?But anyways...
This afternoon was arms and chest and that was way more brutal than anyone expected! Especially me!
They increased our levels a shit load more after Lu couldn't keep her mouth shut this morning about Dylann and Irina. She was right but she still should have shut up. So basically, I'm screwed if these people don't learn to behave.
Yay for me!
So, we also won't be allowed to email for a while.
Again... Yay!
I hope you are all having a better time than I am. I'm struggling with some of the exercises.
Oh! I must tell you!
The Captain is VERY creepy! Like, he watched me take a swim – I didn't even know he was there – and then commented on my underwear. (We are not allowed any costumes other than our regulated uniforms.)
He also said that I should be careful because a lot of the soldiers had not had any "prey" for a while and would not hesitate to take what they needed; like, what the actual fuck! He actually used the word prey. It's insane, right?
He also told me that I look good in black and that I shouldn't change it and that he wouldn't give me the chance to change it even if I wanted to!!!
I don't know if he was flirting or messing with my head or just being a perv. But wow. I wish I had the ability to beat him up.
And KYLE! Oh, My Fuck! He insists on standing next to me 24/7 and he, like, gives me these odd stares. When we confronted Lu, Irina and Dylann he made sure to stand next to me and made sure that I couldn't move away. I am legit scared right now and if it carries on, I will beat a bitch back in their place. They all think I am shy and quiet anyways, but they actually don't know how I can be if I was pushed. And yesterday I told them all crap hey, I had no choice. The looks on their faces were the best! Wish you could've seen it. But for reals, you would have been so proud of me.
