After completing his punishment Peter followed the soldier to the field where they previously carried out the test.
All of the students where gathered nearly 200 in total lined up facing a little stage where Captain Lauren Harvey was.
Peter was stunned to see that they hadn't started any training, but as soon as he entered the field Lauren began speaking
" Now that we're complete I would like to start one your punishment which would be effective immediately. Your punishment for disrespecting your senior is to not die."
"What's she saying"
" Is she serious" the students murmured
"Sounds easy right. You'll soon learn about the work we soldiers put in to enable beasts and all other forms of terror that you could possibly imagine from spilling into your streets"
In her usual monotone voice Lauren started to list thier training routine.
" For a full year you'll undergo exercise that will test you both physically and mentally. By the end of the year you should be able to handle at least a D-class beast.
It is also mandatory for all students to learn a form of martial art and also be proficient in any weapon of choice.
It is also mandatory to be considered a master in the act of evasion,strategy,concealment and all other tactical forms of warfare..."
While she was talking Logan spotted Peter and gestured for him to come over to where he was.
"How are you doing man, that was a pretty hard fall you took there are you alright?"
Logan asked in a tone truly filled with concern wgivh made Peter feel comfortable.
" Don't worry about me let's just focus on not dieing. Are you hearing what the captain is saying"
"Yeah really freaky"Logan said
As they where chatting Lauren spots them from the corner of her eye and stopped talking for a while.
" Students Peter Griffin and Logan Green please step forward."
Peter and Logan both looked at each other and gulped in fear and proceeded to walk towards the stage.
After climbing the stage where she stood Lauren began to speak.
"These two students here are an example of incompetence but, there's nothing a good training session can't do.
In addition to the training session they will be assisting in cleaning the suits of the Beast Control Force every weekend."
*Pause*
"The general training session will consist of a 10 km run, a hundred push ups, a hundred sit-ups, and a hundred squats each day followed by a round of sparing after a 2 hour rest each day for a month while the remainder of the year is up to squad leader who is also your home room teacher. Your training starts immediately."
**********
After the grueling training session all the boys went to the boys bathing house which was located at the right hand side of the hostel.
Logan and Peter where under the showers washing off the sweat and dirt of thier bodies.
"Woah I'm beat what about you Logan"
"I wanna die"
"Yeah I can relate "
" I almost wanted to give up" Logan groaned
"Yeah but we can't you know we have to get awakened "
"Yeah"
Logan looked up around and saw Dylan and Joseph coming out of the showers as well and signalled for them to come over.
" Hey guys how you doing hope you ain't too tired to talk " Logan chuckled
"Yeah well I wasn't the one who fainted at the sight of his own vomit"
" Buzz off"
After a good laugh Dylan sat down and was speaking to Logan. They both seemed to hit it off well so Peter didn't want to ruin the mood but he just couldn't shake of the feeling that someone was watching him and anytime he looked up to search he didn't see anyone suspicious.
After a while Peter decided to join the conversation leaving on Joseph who seemed to be the odd one out but this didn't go unnoticed by Logan.
" Hey Joe my boy, are you still thinking of what happened earlier" Logan asked
"Yeah I'm just so sorry I didn't mean to"
"Don't worry about it join the group chat"
Joseph smiled and also got involved
"So I would really like to know about everyones background how you were raised" Logan asked
"Then I'll go first. As you all know my name is Dylan Blade and I'm the hier to the blade family. My family is a military family so I didn't have too much fun in my childhood but I didn't take it as a reason to be cold. My dad my brother and my grandfather are all in the military and are high ranking. So I have nothing else to do rather than to be the best. There's a lot of pressure on me but that right there that's the thing. Only under pressure are diamonds created so you see I thrive under pressure."
Everyone there paused for a minute there and we're stunned at how he could be so carefree and serious at any moment.
" Well err... Peter why don't you tell us about your childhood."
" Err... I-- I don't... Well you see..." Peter stuttered
" It's okay if you don't wanna talk about it no pressure right guys" Logan assured him
"Yeah it's okay we all have our reasons"
Dylan also assured Peter that he had nothing to worry about. Peter was glad to have such understanding friends and as such he made a mental note to always help them when they are in need.
"So Joseph why don't you tell us about yourself instead"
"Well I'm from---"
"Hey you"
Henry interrupted Joseph and he was not alone. He seemed to have gathered some followers and there were about 3 of them.
"Ermm... Are you talking to me" Joseph asked
"No you idiot am talking to him"
Henry pointed towards Peter's direction who was already on his feet and seemed to be angry.
"Hey I don't know what the hell you want with me but I'm not gonna let you talk to my friend like that. So right now apologize to him."
"Hehh... If I don't apologise what are you gonna do about it bitch"
"Take back what you just said"
" What if I don't "
"I'm gonna count to ten and if you don't apologise to him you're gonna regret it."
"Oh really "
"One..."
"Alright wait a minute"
Henry interrupted his countdown with a genuinely sorry face on his face much to the surprise of the others who were now on their feet as well, but Peter wasn't falling for it
"Now apologize" said Peter
" I apologise to you Joseph... For not giving two fucks about you"
Peter was now visibly angry and took a basic fighting stance and Henry also waved for his minions to step back and took two steps forward to allow a gap of two feet between them and then stood up straight and raised is arm the same way at the entrance exam.
" Bring it on!!" Peter shouted
" Ohh I'm waiting on you midget"
Then Peter launched forward and at the same time Henry brought his arm down so that his fist was near his face.
As soon as Peter entered Henry's range Henry launched his punched which was faster than at the test site.
Peter already expected this and dodged to Peter's right which he used to launched his blow.
' Huh guess you're not as hopeless as I thought... but I anticipated this'
As Peter launched a hook with his left he looked up at Henry's face half expecting it to express surprise but instead he was smiling.
Henry moved back allow Peters hook to hit nothing but air and he brought his fist down.
Just before the fist hit him he stopped.
" Now you know that I'm better than you in every way"
Henry gloated and pushed Peter to the ground and walked away towards the exit.
' Shit I'm gonna get him back for this'
In Peter's mind Henry was his first limit he has to surpass and in due time he would.
Henry then stopped before walking out to add more salt to injury.
" Ohh... Peter know your place
