My face red, I stand up and, avoiding Carla's smirking gaze, get back up on the beam. I make it only about halfway, then slip again.
What was wrong with me???
By the third try, I was almost to tears, and when I clambered back up on the beam - not all to graciously - I just sat there, glaring at the beam. After a moment's thought, I breathe in very deeply, and then let it out.
I stood and grinned. Full on black panthers should be able to do this.

Alice is in this room where you face your fears
I am on this sort of obsticale course
Julane is training with Aura to learn to fight with being blind,
And I think that's all :) )

I wipe sweat from my eyes, breathing hard. Two hours. Two HOURS! I'd been ducking, swinging, lunging, for two whole hours.
I was on a small obstacle course, I had tried to choose the easiest thing, since I wasn't very experienced, but it anything BUT easy. After half an hour, I was forced to turn into my sort of half-panther mode. My hair black, eyes yellow, and long nails didn't do much, but my panther instincts helped a lot to dive and duck from swinging poles, or scaling a skinny beam - I nearly died trying to do the monkey bars. Well, if you could call trying to cling onto furiously shaking bars, with random objects flying at you in every direction - I even caught sight of a fully sharpened sword coming at me!
I stopped for a moment, once again wiping sweat from my eyes. Everyone else seemed to be doing okay, but it was hard to tell through all the stuffed animals that had just been thrown my way.
"Back to work." I thought, as I flipped back onto the trampoline.

Five minutes later, I was out, teeth brushed, hair brushed, face washed, and bright eyed.
I grabbed the tray and peeked out of the doorway. Chatter was streaming in from a room a bit down the hall, so I headed in that direction.
When I entered the room, there were Paige, Indigo, Doyle, Kamiko, Alex, Salifia, and that Aura girl.
I sat down at the table, squeezing myself in between Indigo and Alex.

As I walked through the grimy doorway, I grimaced. The walls were dirty and water stained, and each doorknob I could see along the narrow hallway was rusted beyond recognizion.
"What is this place, anyway?" I asked, glancing at Indigo beside me. Paige shrugged, saying nothing. She looked worn out. Indigo was hardly awake, so Paige and I were practically carrying her between us. I could tell Paige needed a good nights sleep, so I questioned no further.
The three of us slipped into the second room, where two bunk beds were positioned.
"Er, let's all stay in here, and keep an eye on Indigo - oh, sorry, I-I didn't mean it like-" But she didn't seem to have heard me, and as Paige and I carefully laid her down on the bottom of the right bunk, she immediately fell asleep.
Paige took the top bunk, and I was left with the choice of top or bottom on the bunk across the room. I chose the bottom, and sat down, staring at my toes.
"What a day." I thought, shaking my head.
And with that, I fell back and curled up under the blankets, fast asleep.
