Chapter 0175


    “Over here are offices and study rooms if you do not feel like studying in your own bedroom or if you


    have a group project, this is as far as outsiders can go.


    Make sure you get permission from me before bringing anyone here though.


    There is a library down here as well.


    If there''s any materials that you need that you don''t find in there, again let Audrina know and she


    will make sure that you receive what you need.


    The rest of the warriors use these rooms for strategy sessions.


    Sometimes for mock missions, other times for real missions.


    We treat them with the same level of seriousness.


    Any time you are sent out aS a warrior, we want you to have as much nning and knowledge as


    possible.


    What we do for the kingdom is usually the most life threatening job, which is why we train the way


    we do.


    Being prepared with contingency ns is part of that training."


    I nod and let that sink In as we continue to walk down the white and gray hallway to another set of


    double doors; these are only slightly smaller than the entrance doors that we came through


    originally, but just as ornate.


    “Now, out here is your Recreation space.” He stopped and turned to me, looking for my reaction.


    I actually stumbled at the sight behind the bunk house.


    “We have an olympic sized swimming pool over there, we have a hot tub and sauna, which you will


    use on a regr basis when you first start your training.


    It will help you recover much more quickly than anything else.


    There is an outdoor workout areaplete with all weights and equipment that you would need, if


    you don''t find something that you need or want please let us know, we''ll make sure that you get it.


    On the other side of the barrier there is an assortment of climbing and rock wall equipment,


    something simr to your obstacle course back at Blue Crescent.


    I''m sure that you will feel quite at home here.


    This is not much different than what you are used to."


    I take a look around and I still get the country club vibe from everything.


    The pool is crystal clear with no leaves or bugs or anything floating around it.


    There are no lounge chairs surrounding it for rxation though.


    The hot tub looks like it was custom built into the ground to hold at least 20 veryrge werewolves


    in it.


    The steamzily rising from the surface is inviting.


    I can see a huge hedge where he pointed to the workout space and just beyond that I can see the


    top of a wooden structure that must be the climbing equipment he was talking about.


    Warrior Osiston breaks me from my thoughts.Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    “We eat dinner every night at 8:00 p.m.


    Sharp.


    if you miss dinner then you missed dinner, the kitchen is closed promptly at 9:00. and lights out at


    10:00 p.m.


    there is a wake up call every day at 4:00 a.m.


    You are expected to be down at breakfast by 5:00 a.m. and we are out on the training fields by 6:00


    a.m.


    The rules are strict and there are punishments for missing time.


    We do not train our warriors to bezy or make excuses.


    We train them to be the best of the best and the best are notte. our lunches are staggered so you


    will get your schedule on a daily basis.


    By the time you get up to your room tonight you will have your training schedule as well as your


    school schedule.


    You will be assigned one of our newer recruits to escort you around for the first day.


    After the first day you are expected to understand your way around and be fully capable of making it


    to your sses and to your training times on time and prepared.


    Do you understand?


    “Yes sir. Do we train on Saturdays and Sundays as well? Is the schedule the same?"


    “We train 7 days a week. Saturdays and Sundays are a little bit different but there is still training.


    You do get free time on one of those two days to do as you please here on the grounds.


    You must earn your right to free time off the grounds, and you are in what we ca probationary


    period.


    Just know that our trainingpound is about as remote as you can get from every other training


    facility on the territory.


    It is also heavily monitored so do not think that you will be getting in or out of thepound


    unchecked.


    Others have tried and failed miserably.


    And if you are caught just know that your discretions will be put on public disy."


    “Yes sir.” I gulp, that must be a warning to not try and sneak out to see Sierra or the guys.


    Which was actually something that hadn’t crossed my mind until he said it.


    I could have Sierra here to study though, that will be nice.


    I take another deep breath and have a thought.


    “While I am here, what do I call you? Obviously, not many people get to call you Warrior Osiston.


    Should I just stick with ‘sir?’ I don’t want to look like I have special privileges.


    I’m already here too young, get to leave thepound for sses and have Alpha Reggie


    personally escorting me.


    I know I haven''t seen anyone yet, but that doesn’t mean people aren''t watching me right now.


    I spend enough of my time being the freak, so anything that doesn’t make me stand out would be


    helpful.”


    Warrior Osiston stops and turns to mepletely with an eyebrow raised.


    “Little One, you do realize you stand out just by entering a room, right? You are a warrior and your


    presence alone lets the whole room know that you are a leader and someone to look to. Do not get


    caught up in semantics. | told you what I prefer you to call me. That is not dependent on the


    audience. There should be no question.”
