Crystals pov.

I skipped out of the training hall looking for Star but all I saw was her second in command Flames.

I stopped and chatted with her telling her how I was gonna find Star but She looked towards the way I think Star had gone and shook her head forcing me to walk with her because she wouldn't tell me.

If not telling me wasn't enough she also brought up the "technically it's rules that a commander needs to be with all there division members at all times card." Mine where all at the mess hall, So I was forced to agree with her and change course. 

We now continued to walk down the path to the mess hall with was a giant shack with crowded amounts of people and certain tables to sit at. All the commanders sat together but I assume that right now having everyone sitting together wouldn't be such a good idea considering there bout ready to kill each other.

I looked into the distance and had a mental match. I imagine Star could take on Knives with ease maybe Begs with a little difficulty.

But not James. No where near him. And she surely couldn't deal with Beg along with James along with Knives. No no no. She'd get wiped like a baby's ass.

I laughed to myself as Flames was blabbing on about something that happened last night involving her and Piers and how she was scared to let her commander know.

But I didn't pay attention at all I was to busy running over the conversation I heard Knives talk about. "If we could use that information against her then she'd be sent to the pit and not allowed to participate in rankings. Giving us all a step up."

James was about to speak when he had saw my head snaking up behind Knives's shoulder and stopped. I cursed myself for that I need to be a better ninja. Anyway.

Flames words kept entering and leaving my head until we got to the edge of the Forest and I could see the crowded shack. I begun to bounce up and down like an excited kid.

Out of All the times of the day lunch is my favorite. Oh along with dinner and midnight snacks. Or when id sneak up to the moon pool at night and steal some of stars secret stash of berries. Those are great.

I laughed to myself (ignoring Flames look of concern) and remembered when we first snuck up to the moon pool.

Knives,Star, Kara, Ace, Cookie and I. It was one of the best nights of my life. We where the best. We where together always and... forever... We Where.. We where.

We where slaughtered.

I frowned and pouted. Shaking the memory's out of my head when I soon remembered Ace.

He was Cookies and Jame's brother. I remembered his black hair and freckles and His childlike, can do personality.

I remembered how Ace would always make fun of her or make me laugh. He even found a way to cheer me up when ever General beat me. I smiled on my twisted memories. Walking to the mess hall doors with out knowing.

But as soon as the good memory's came the bad ones came faster. I suddenly remembered the way his body was mangled.

How I held his torso, covered in blood, to my face crying. His torso was all that was left. And that had a gaping whole in the middle. He had been torn apart limb from limb. I then remembered how that nasty nasty woman used them as projectiles towards me.

Each one of the limbs, members of my best friends. Throw at me as fast as bullets.

Then I remembered Star and how she jumped in front of me and took every bloody hit. I remembered, How until that moment Star was that perfect student.
