Chapter 2

Erik was running straight at Youl as fast as he could with knifepoint at ready. Youl was in the same position but a bit calmer about the situation. Erik swung his gauntlet/knife right at Youl but Youl jumped high into the air and to land right in back of Erik. Youl stuck out his knife and it barely touched Erik's neck.
"Move and I'll drive this right into your neck," Youl said.
"Samyen didn't say how to win right?" Erik asked. He was in total shock about what Youl would do to him next.
"No he-" Erik ducked and kicked his legs up right into Youl's face, Youl flew 15 feet. He got up after about 4 seconds and his nose was broken. Youl took out a syringe from his back pocket and it had some blue liquid inside of it. He injected it into his arm and the pain of his nose brake went away after about 3 seconds. Erik hid but Youl didn't know where. Youl spotted a boulder and cut it in half but Erik was nowhere to be found. Just then Erik came up out of nowhere as if he was hiding in the snow. (Which he was), he swung at Youl but Youl dogged it.
"What the hell?" Erik said. Youl swung around and swung at Erik with his fist but Erik blocked it with his gauntlet. But Erik didn't see the next attack coming. Youl had his gauntlet knife ready and rammed it into Erik's stomach but Erik swung his foot up to get into the way. The knife went right into his foot. "Ahhhhhhh!!!" Erik screamed and jumped backward. Blood was all over the snow that he lay on.
"Samyen never said how you could win did he? This is a test to see our limits even if it means killing the opponent."
Alex yelled from into the Mike, "stop your going to kill Erik!"
Samyen responded, "your point?"
Damen sat there on the other side of this fight without saying anything. He then got up and talked into the Mike.
"Youl do what needs to be done, and Erik stop holding back you can kick this guy's ass." Erik injected the syringe into his leg and got up. While he was limping so he wouldn't break his foot totally, blood was beginning to form in a line from where Erik was walking.
"You expect to take me on with a broken foot? Come on Erik you know better than to— Erik swung his left foot around because his right one was the foot that got injured. He kicked Youl in the on the side of the head and Youl flew in the air to the right of Erik. As if by slow motion Erik ran as fast as he could to where Youl was flying and kicked Youl in the stomach in while Youl was in mid-air. Youl then flew back and landed 20 feet away from Erik. Erik's right foot was totally shattered.

Samyen waited for Youl to get back up again but he didn't. He turned the EV off. Youl was on the ground not able to get up, and Erik sat on the ground screaming holding his foot. Samyen called a medic to pick up Erik and Youl. Win examined Youl and Erik before the medics had arrived. Youl had the wind knocked out of him big time and probably was going to be like that for a couple of hours. Erik on the other had, his right foot was shattered and would need a replacement foot. Which would be made out of the strongest of metals to keep it from breaking again. Four medics arrived with two stretchers and they loaded Erik and Youl onto two separate stretchers. They were carried out of the room.
"Ok everybody just go to the gym and work out for the rest of the period, I'm going to go check on them," Samyen said. He exited and walked down to where sickbay was. He found Youl and Erik side by side on beds and both where sound asleep. Samyen exited sickbay to find Alex right outside the room.
"Are both of them alright?" Alex asked.
"They're going to be fine, you can go pay them a visit if you like," Samyen said. He walked right past Alex and headed down to his office. Alex entered the room glancing at Youl, and then she walked over to Erik's bed. Both of them were had the masks around their mouths like the ones that are put on you before the surgeon operates on you. Alex looked at Erik and pulled up the cover to see how his leg was. It hadn't been operated on yet but there was medical tape around it. Alex then bent over and kissed Erik on the forehead. She left the room. What Alex didn't know was, Erik had his eyes barely open the whole time.

Chapter 3
3:06 P.M.

The operation was over on Erik's leg and the doctors said he could start walking again in about 3 hours, so for now he needed to use a wheelchair to get around. The wheelchair hovered and was controlled remotely. Erik got into his wheelchair with the help of the doctors and went to Youl's bedside. Erik still had his hospital clothes on. Youl was still recovering from the blow that Erik served him. Erik then asked the nurse if she would help put his clothes on for him. Erik thought the nurse was hot; she was about in her twenties with long/straight hair and brown eyes. The nurse was about in her early twenties. She told him to get lost.
"What but you're supposed to help the patient!" Erik demanded. She didn't change her mind so Erik had to get his clothes on himself. During the day the uniform was different. They had to where regular military uniforms. After he got his clothes on he headed down to the mess hall to grab some lunch. Corporal Manes was walking down the hall as well. Manes headed over to Erik.
"I heard what happened, you alright?" Manes asked.
"Um…yeah I guess, but I'll need a metal right foot," Erik said.
"Yeah, us humans haven't yet made artificial bones for people," Manes said. "But I did go over the footage of the battle. Seems like you kicked the crap out of Youl. God I hope that kid alright," Manes said. Erik saluted and went past Manes to the mess hall.
"Oh and one more thing, you can't have lunch either because of this morning's incident," Manes said. Erik was mad and changed his direction to go look for Damen.

Damen was in enemy class, where they learned about different alien species and how they functioned, ext. Damen was almost falling asleep. As long as he learned how to kill the alien, he didn't need a class to teach him about how it functioned. His obvious favorite class was explosives training. After all he was the explosives expert. Erik realized it was easier to find Damen on one of the hallway COM's. He checked to see what class Damen had, it was enemy class. Erik had the same class and went down the hall to get to enemy class. After the halo incident Marines weren't trained just to kill. The Master Chief, who was John, decided to do that because his experiences as a child weren't normal and he wanted kids to have classes as if they were in school. Erik opened the door. Everybody looked forward.
"Hey Erik over here," Damen said. As Erik went to go sit by Damen some of his classmates were telling him of what a good job he did in defeating Youl. Erik sat down and tried not be bored out of his mind. Erik and Damen talked the whole time and Erik wasn't too happy about his decision to go to class after all.

Alex was in lunch with Win and were both talking about regular girl talk.
"I saw what you did in sick bay Alex," Win said.
"What did she do?" Jessica, another Marine in training asked.
"Yeah what'd she do?" asked Liz.
"She kissed Erik on the forehead," Win said. All the girls started laughing.
"Why do you like Erik?" Jessica asked. "He's not even hot, and he's such a dork. Youl is my type of man."
"Actually I wouldn't mind going with Damen, he's kind-of cute," Liz said.
"Guys I just like Erik ok?" Alex said.
"Whatever," Win said. All of them continued talking and eating lunch. Then they all went back to their quarters and showered. Alex's roommate was Win. After both of them got out of the showers they put on their towels and started talking.
"So what do you see in Erik?" Win asked. "He' s total dork."
"Well how can he be a dork when your crush, Youl, tried to kill him?" Alex asked. "If Youl did become your boyfriend, would you even feel safe with him?
"I really don't know but if I were his girlfriend he wouldn't try to kill me, trust me," Win said.
