Gemini's POV

"A dead zone. So no ones coming for us."

Vera shook her head, "This area was cut off from the public decades ago. Its actually brilliant," a smile fell onto her lips as she stared at the ceiling, "this place is invisible to the public. No questions asked. Nobody wants to go in, its too dangerous, a perfect place to construct a lab with no distractions."

I leaned my head against the badly burnt cabin wall and fixated my gaze on the cold ceiling as well, "any idea of how to get out?"

She sighed, seemingly to be distraught by her own mind, "One. But its a long shot. and if it doesn't work we're all going to die."

There were a few counts of silence before the thought clicked in my head.

"Let's do it."

"Training begins now!" Zara said as soon as everyone rounded up.

"How do we train?" Eli asked excitedly.

"Hand to hand combat. No weapons." Zara said with hands on her hips.

Belle and two of the other younger girls ran in the clearing of the group with sticks and made a large circle in the dirt.

"Belle, Jane, Emily! Out of the ring!"

The three little girls ran out giggling then using their sticks as swords and began fighting each other playfully.

"Who's up to get their ass kicked first!?" Someone yelled anonymously from the group making every one laugh except for the oldest of us.

Zara jut out a hip, "Whoever said that, step up." She commanded.

The group immediately quieted and looked back at whoever it was.

A guy with wavy brown hair and sea foam colored eyes emerged from the crowd.

He stepped into the ring silently.
Zara smirked and walked into the ring,"what's your name?"

He cracked his knuckles, "Jackson."

Zara rolled her shoulders back and stretched her neck, "Jackson, I've decided since you're so eager for an ass kicking, I'll generously give you one."

Jackson rose and eyebrow, "I bet you hit like a girl."

I scoffed at his ignorance, and a light chuckle escaped my lips.

Zara kept her back to me whilst saying, "Wipe that little smirk off your face, Gemini. Or your ass is next."

I suppressed my bubbling laughter and did my best to put on a serious face though I'm sure I failed miserably.

I lost interest in the fighting and left to explore the other cabins which I hadn't had the honor of investigating yet.

"You take a hit like a girl. Fine, I'll be nice and kick your ass quick." Zara said, capturing my ears again but not getting me so intriuged to actually get me to turn around.

I hear a few thuds and groans before Zara proudly announced to the group, "I don't like cocky fucks. So if you want to be cocky and think you know better than expect to get corrected in the ring." I heard the group go quiet from cheering on the fight before Zara spoke again, "I will be choosing the pairs that go against each other."

I began to walk towards a badly burnt cabin to the far left of me before i was stopped.

"Gemini."

I groaned and slowly turned around but the groan was silenced immediately when I saw whom the noise erupted from.

Authors Note.
