Nearby voices woke me up from my sleep.
"so no one found out?" She said a voice unknown to me "no" another voice said with a monotone tone "very good she is good enough although I would have liked to take the genius shisui"
I shuddered at those words, this guy is dangerous.
"Take care of his training" the first man said as he walked away.
I quickly pretended to be asleep my heart was pounding in my ears.
"Get up," the voice said in a tone that denoted no emotion.
I froze with fear, I couldn't move for fear that this guy would do something to me.
"Get up" this time he said with a little more force and suddenly I felt a kick in my belly that made me spit out saliva.
I groaned in pain as I tried to catch my breath, "Get up," the man repeated. I shuddered at his voice and quickly got up.
The pain in my stomach kept throbbing but I finally saw my aggressor, good in a sense.
'white mask' I repeated in my mind remembering my kidnappers and of course this filled me with more terror.
Then the man extended his hands and took out a Short vest with red stripes and a little short, "take it and follow me," he said, handing me the clothes.
I grabbed the set carefully and nodded, this was no time to be afraid. I quickly followed him down a gray hallway.
After a few seconds we reached a door and the man opened it calmly.
Inside the room three heads turned towards us "this will be your new partner" he said pointing in my direction "you have the day off to get to know each other" he said and then left And leaving me completely alone with some strangers, even though they looked the same age as me, I noted with surprise.
"I'm Ayumi" said a girl with orange hair "nice to meet you, excuse me, what's your name?"
I was surprised for a moment and then responded "kiyomi" I said with my voice a little hoarse.
"Nice to meet you Kiyomi, this is Riyuu" he said pointing to a boy with purple hair "and this Takuma" he said pointing to a boy with black hair.
The black-haired boy simply nodded skeptically.
"How did they catch you" said the boy named Riyuu.
"riyuu!" The girl reprimanded, "you don't have to ask that."
"Ha why? "They caught us, you know, the three of us are orphans, easy prey." The boy said with a mocking smile, "You have very bad luck, girl, these guys are dangerous," he repeated and then leaned back and turned his back to us.
"Please excuse me," Ayumi said with an apologetic look. "It's just that it's difficult for us. Yes, we're orphans and all, but we had friends," she said, clenching her fists.
"Okay, don't apologize," I said, keeping calm.
This was definitely bad, this place, those people and their intentions.
'I have to escape' I said to myself with fear in my heart but before continuing with the internal monologue Ayumi spoke to me again "this will be your bed" she said pointing to the top bed of a two bunk bed.
"Do you sleep downstairs?" I asked curiously.
"If I like it better, the bottom bed is more comfortable." He said with a know-it-all aura.
"I think it's time to rest, tomorrow it's time for training" he said as he lay down on his bed and closed his eyes.
"Training?" I said confused looking in his direction.
"Yes, every day at 6 am we have training sessions that last 10 hours," he said calmly without opening his eyes.
"10 hours!?" I said with a scream as she opened her eyes with a start.
"Excuse me," I said embarrassed while stroking my hair.
"Don't worry" Ayumi said with a calm face "we also react that way well except Takuma he's just weird"He said with a kind face directed towards me .
I nodded my head and squeezed my shoulder in fear. I didn't know what awaited me in this place. The only thing I knew was that if I wanted to survive, I had to be strong.
I climbed onto the top bunk and lay down on the soft pillow 'tomorrow will be a new day' I told myself until I fell asleep.
"tomorrow will get better and it will be a good day"
