The first thing I did was to go to my personal dorm. I needed to get my workout clothes because one - I didn't have any at the group dormitory, two - even if I did have them there, I left so I couldn't possibly go back for them.
As I had reached my room I went to check the closet and roamed through all my things to find what I needed. When I found them I went for a search for my sports bag. Found that too. Stuffing the bag full of workout clothes I headed to my destination.
After about seven minutes of roaming the campus I had found our strength training place. It was near our group dormitory, but underground it. At least that was a great way to save space on this preferably small island. Smart move.
I went down, found the changing rooms, changed from my uniform to my workout attire, and went to the main training room. It had various gym types of machines but the most space was left for punching bags and a huge padded floor area which I guess was meant for practicing fighting techniques.
I noticed that the room was empty. I guess it's because of the new year. Nobody in their right mind would want to exercise after the first day. Except me.
I went straight to the punching bags to let out my anger. I hadn't been this angry in a while, to be honest this is the angriest I had ever been. These guys really can change your look on everything. I hope that not everyone here is like that. It would suck for three whole years. But what are the chances?
I started practicing my punches and kicks. My best ones as always were right and left hooks added by roundhouse kicks.
WHY

IRRITATING.

I sighed and let my forehead rest against the soft yet hard material of the punching bag as I felt small beads of my sweat drop off my face.
"Whyy?..." I whined annoyed punching the bag in anger at my outburst.
I forced myself to position myself again in front of the bag and continued my training which resulted in lessening my anger.
Aerinmus's P.O.V.
It has been half an hour since Skur left and my ear still hurt a little bit. Where did she get so much strength from? Also since the argument we had our dorm had fallen in dead silence as everyone sat in each's place or bed and wondered what had just happened. Why the hell I had sent Gnupa? I didn't even know myself. I sighed, and hearing my quiet sorrow Hlif shot her angry and disappointed gaze towards me. "What are you sighing about. This is your fault." She scolded me.
"I didn't know it would turn out this way," I quietly mumbled.
"What then you thought? Huh?" Joreid snapped at me. "Did you really think that she would react calmly to this? If yes, you are even stupider than I had thought. How did you even earn the position of a leader? Did your parents bribe the headmaster or what?"
"I actually thought she wouldn't find out." I looked down fidgeting with my fingers under the table I was slouched at.
"Why the hell you actually sent Gnupa to spy on Skur? Do you think that he is so miserable to do your dirty work?" Joreid asked again.
"I-I don't know. Okay?!" I almost screamed as I panicked and stood up slamming my hands against the table. "I really don't know..."
"Go fix this," Gnupa said not looking up. Seeing him I realized what great mistake I had done. Not only did I hurt Skur but also Gnupa. Dammit! I should have gone.
"How?" I asked confused. I really didn't know how to fix this - it was harder than it seemed. Fixing this problem would already be a big problem that seemed impossible, but I also had to fix my relationship with other members as they were now disappointed in me and didn't find me a reliable person in me anymore. Even Bolverk was silent.
"How would I know?!" He snapped too, "It's your problem not mine."
I sighed heavily and quietly walked out of our room with slouched shoulders. Where the hell the training grounds even are?
After looking around our Academy I finally found Skur. She was near our dormitory under the ground. Of course I couldn't find it right away. It was almost impossible to spot. I had found it thanks to the map placed at the main building.
When I carefully climbed down the stairs I heard someone shouting and something hitting against something. Thinking it was Skur I quickly pressed myself against the wall and quietly moved against it towards the sounds.
Hiding behind the corner I watched as she punched and kicked the punching bag with all her force. As I looked at Skur I thought of how graceful she looked at the moment. Wow... she's strong. Thank God she hasn't used all of her power against me or else I would be doomed.
I must have been in a little trans since I didn't see the bag's chain brake and the bag fall with a loud thud on the ground. The fall startled me and I accidentally stumbled and hit the wall behind me.
Shit.
She heard me and my miserable tries of trying not to get noticed as I spied on her and came towards me at a fast pace. When she saw me hiding behind the corner her eyes widened and she furiously stated the fact that it indeed was me, "Aerinmus."
She kicked me right in the stomach making me completely fall on my back. Then she launched on top of me pinning me harshly to the cold, hard floor.
"What. Are. You. Doing. Here?" She asked while gritting her teeth, "Didn't I say not to follow me?!"
I nodded my head unable to pass any word out of my mouth.
Skur pushed me stronger into the floor and I winced in pain. "I'm not going to repeat myself one more time."
"I came to -- Apologize" I choked the words out not feeling air circulating in me.
"What?..." She asked her gaze softening and her tight grip on me loosening, letting me to push her off and flip us over.
Now I was on top of her while pinning her to the ground. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry for what I did. I wasn't thinking. Please, don't be mad. I really am sorry. I don't understand what came on me as I asked Gnupa to follow you."
I saw something shift in her eyes. "So you're sorry only about that? Nothing else you feel sorry about?" Skur asked not forgiving me yet.
"What are you talking about?"
"I don't know? Maybe the fact that you clearly don't want me here and protect specially Bolverk even when he is in wrong?"
"Oh.." I whispered. "I didn't know it had hurt you so much. Clearly I wasn't also thinking then - usually I'm not like this. I promise. I know it will be hard but I will try to see the situation from all standpoints from now on. Okay?" I lightly smiled at her.
"Okay... But please don't do that anymore. I wouldn't control myself anymore if you would do something so selfish and wrong again - I would be ready to kill," her soft yet dangerous words made my heart flutter.
What is wrong with me? She just threatened me.
I let her go of my hold and helped her get up. "I promise to try not to do that."
