I look around and everyone stops talking and turns to one direction. Lucy and Luke pick up some backpacks lying on the ground, I assume they are theirs.
"Get ready to run" Luke says to me, then he stands so he ready to start running. I do the same. Once everyone around me looks ready I hear another whistle and everyone starts running, I take that as a cue and start running to.
I run at the back of the group with Luke and Lucy.

After about 10 minutes of running I start getting annoyed because I'm running slower then normal. I decide to run off to the side of the group and start running faster. Soon I'm towards the front of the group. Theres about 10 people at the front of the group and Erik is in the middle of them. Some glare at me and some stare at me curiously I just ignore them all an keep running.
We kept running for about 3 hours until I hear I whistle and everyone stops.  I stop too and realize it's time for a break. When everyone stops I jog to the back of the group where I see Lucy and Luke. Both of them look pretty tired. I am too but I'm used to it by now, we all are.
"25 minute break guys!" I hear a voice call out I'm pretty sure it's Erik's.
"Wow you can sure run" Luke looks up and says to me.
I'm about to resond when I here another voice.
"She sure can" I turn around to see guy I haven't talked to or met yet.
"Noah" he says and puts his hand out for a hand shake.
"Cassie" I say as I shake his hand. He smiles.
"Funny how you didn't want to run with your sister though" Erik says in an accusing tone as he comes up along side him, and looks at me suspiciously. 
"I just wanted to run a bit faster" I say defensively.
"Well-"
He's about to say something else when Lucy interrupts.
"We were running a lot slower than she was" Lucy says.
"Whatever" Erik mumbles as he walks off.
"What's that guys problem?" I ask when I know he's out of hearing range which isn't hard because there's alot of people talking around us.
"He's got a crush on Lucy" Noah says blunty.
"Noah!" Lucy shouts. People around us stare and Lucy freezes.
