The water drips on my skin as I come out of the bathroom with a towel tied around my body.

"hey guys have you seen my......" the room door creaks as a guy enters...everyone stares at him.....from his blonde hair to his pitch colored lips....he walks around the room and no-one seems bothered.....what's a guy doing in a girls dorm?....

"what's underneath that? " he asks and I come back to reality...i look at him as he points at my towel "what the heck!, you perv..." I punch him before I even realized it.....he groans in pain as I watch him change form....now he looks more like an eighteen year old girl.....Riley?...

"what did you do that for? " Riley asks rubbing her nose....i look around as everyone begins to laugh "you didn't really think a guy would come into the girls dorm, did you? " Riley says as she goes to the edge of her bed

"I'm so sorry....how was I supposed to know you were a shape shifter?" I ask and Riley rolls her eyes "I told you! " she yells.....that's true but how was I supposed to remember all that?...

I look at jorgie who seems to be paying attention to her book "you know....she was just trying to tease you" she says without looking up at me but I just ignore her.......today was another day......another day with that psychopath...Mr Andres.

I change into my black outfit

******************************

I became used to going through the tunnel and it didn't seem quite long anymore, Mr Andres marches around the room but this time he didn't bring a box of knives.

" today I'm gonna be teaching you....how to take on an enemy" he pauses as he glares at us "you're gonna learn how to kill and hurt your enemy before they even realize it... " he says as he walks towards a marker board....he writes something on it...ONE ON ONE.

"this is how it's gonna work.....I'll be the one to choose your opponent, each session for a match...whoever gets to the end.....has to face me" Mr Andres says......face him?.... What's his power anyways...

He heads to the board and writes a name...PHOEBE...."first up is phoebe and...." he pauses as he writes another name on the board "ron" I sigh seeing the name...who's phoebe?..

Ron gets on his feet so does phoebe, her hair is packed into a ponytail...she doesn't seem much of a threat...

Mr Andres guides phoebe and Ron to the training ground....they look at each other sternly "the rules are.....there are no rules, use your powers to your advantage but remember fatalities are allowed but don't kill your opponent" he laughs taking his seat, what was Mr Andres thinking by pairing up a boy with a girl...what's Ron's power?....

Ron strikes first with his fist....what was he thinking....phoebe jumps up landing a kick on his face, she grins "you've got a lot of courage going old school.....why don't you show me what you're really made of" she says looking down at Ron who was on one of his knees....but he doesn't do anything.....was he taking it easy because she's a girl?....

Ron gets on his feet......staring at phoebe..a snake climbs up her neck...she's a serpent....."pss...sahkjloghyraee....maohkatlfh..." she mumbles, what was she saying.....was she talking to the snake?... ron freezes at the sight of the snake....it was an anaconda.....one bite from his venom and it's all over but killing wasn't allowed....right?

The snake moves swiftly towards Ron and he jumps up "c'mon show me what you're made of" she laughs and Ron sighs but he stands steadily as the snake turns around.....it was as if he needed to concentrate.....this time the snake heads towards him but he doesn't move.....i watch as its tongue spits at Ron....the snake stops or rather freezes....how did he?....did he just freeze the snake?...

Everyone begins clap and Mr Andres gets on his feet "thank you Ron for that incredible performance" Mr Andres says and Ron shoots phoebe a look.....he didn't even have to move..... Ron was really taking it easy on her....

"I would have killed you, if I had the chance" he utters looking sternly at phoebe.

**********************

We crawl out of the tunnel......i stand on my feet as I head towards the dorm.....next training session was going to be another match....who was I going to be up against?...... I didn't even know what I was.....

My mind was filled with thoughts....i flinch as a hand grabs me....i try to scream but I couldn't....i couldn't do anything about it.
