I look the gauntlet up and down trying my best to control my breathing. The jumps in between the different obstacles looked impassable considering my stupid stubby legs I might make it if I can get good run up that might help.

"All right since you don't have any second years in your groups we will have your squad leader show you how it's done " the teacher said and two second years stepped forward xaden my squad leader and the girl who used to be my squad leader. Since we had the most cadets in years we had to work with another squad and that meant less time for everyone.

But luckily the squad that joins ours was Haylins squad that much I'm thankful for.

The teacher pulled out a timer and yelled go then xaden bolted off and was up the gauntlet it what felt like les then a minute.

Then the girl stepped forward and the teacher started the timer once again she ran through it almost as effortlessly as xaden but she wasn't as fast compared to him but apparently he's great at everything so it just seems unfair.

"Some of the best in there year. You'll have to Be better then them if you want it graduate" the teacher says sternly.

"So inspirational" I hear a deep voice mutter from besides me I let out a small laugh as I lol to see who it is.

Marlo. I'm instantly reminded of what happened in sparring and his offer. As soon as I see his dark emerald eyes he smirks at me.

"Ho you doing princess?" He says almost mockingly and I roll my eyes at the pet name.

"Miserable now that your here" he told his eyes at me this time before pretending to pout.

"You sure about that princess I think love me" he says love dragging out the e

"Only in you dreams" I say turning my attention as the teacher begins calling out the order of who will go when for haylins squad.

"How'd you know? I had a dream last night it was you and me and you had taken me up on my offer" he says leaning closer towards my so he I can feel his boy breath but not for long before I feel a hand and my shoulder.

"Alora we need to go line up" bodhi says form behind me. pining Marlo with a glare. Bodhi guides me over to Liam and we listen out for our names as the teacher begins.

"What was that for?" I ask looking at bodhi I was simply flirting—I think or Marlo just hates me.

"He—I don't think you should be around him Lora he is related to melgren and you know how he is about us" bodhi says his eyes falling into to his relic that trails up his arm. "And as your older brother I think I have atleast some form of input in who you date" he says patting me on my head.

"By like a few months" I mumble "wait Marlo is related to general melgren?" I ask I'm a very nosey person who just happens to 'over hear' a lot of things but this is one thing I have not over heard.

"Yeah apparently he's like his uncle or something" bodhi says

"Well that's rude" i says crossing my arms over my chest.

"I—never mind" bodhi says as if he thought better of whatever he was going to say.

"Bodhi Durran!" The teacher then calls out and bodhi steps into the line conveniently right behind Marlo who smirks at bodhi. Who then turns to me looking at me with an I told you this guy is an asshole look.

"Do you know how you are getting up that chimney?" Liam ask's coming to my side.

"No....I know I'm not nearly tall enough to touch the sides" I say looking down at my body.
