Chapter 156
But I was proud that I didn’t let it beat me. I was never going to let these assholes beat me. I was better than that and I’ve trained for this.
Justin took me to an obstacle course that was the most intricate course I have ever seen.
“Alright. The best time on this course is 12 minutes. I want you to beat it.” Justin said, pulling out a stopwatch.
“Okay.” I said.
“We’re not leaving here until you beat 12 minutes. We’ll stay here all day if we have to.” He said.
“12 minutes flat?” I asked.
“Yeah.” He said. So I looked up at the obstacle and I started shaking out my muscles and ignored the ones that were still hurting from the day before.
“Oh. You have to go to the end and back in 12 minutes.” Justin said, correcting himself.
“Are you fucking kidding me?” I asked, shocked. And he smiled at me. But then he started the stopwatch, so I had to run to the front of the obstacle course and I climbed the ladder to the top, grabbed the rope that was 30 feet off the ground with nothing but the solid ground below me, wrap my feet around that rope and move from one end to the other which would have been another 20 feet. I jumped down onto the other platform and climbed down the stairs, running to the rope ladder and I climbed it to the top, over the thick board at the top that was holding it together and down the other side.
I ran for a few meters before I had to climb the wooden wall and then jump down the other side.
Once I was on the other side, I had to get on my stomach and crawl under a barbed wire fence and avoid the trip wires that were on the ground.
Once I got through that I got to my feet again, starting to feel my muscles ache like they were on fire, but pushing through to the rope climb where I climbed it to the top and I rang the bell at the top.
When I got back down to the bottom, I had to run further on to the large hole in the ground that was full of muddy water. But I jumped up and grabbed on to the post above the water and I had to grab one post after the other, like monkey bars, until I got to the other end. I then had to climb onto a single log that was from one hell of a big tree and I had to walk across it without falling off which led me to the last part which was climbing a rope to a platform where I then had to climb very large spaced out wood posts to another platform, climb a rope ladder to the next platform and then grab the rope and lower myself down to the ground.
Once I did all of that, I didn’t have a chance to rest. I had to climb that same rope ladder to get back to the top platform and do the whole thing backwards.
When I got back to Justin, I was sweating, exhausted and I grabbed my water bottle as soon as I got there.
But then I noticed that there were three men standing there with Justin. They were huge. Over 6 foot
4, the whole three of them with
muscles that looked like they were
going to hip their shirts.
I wonder where they found these guys from. They were wearing black so they were
obviously in our unit.
“19 minutes.” Justin said.
“Give me a sec. I’ll go again.” I said, drinking more of my water bottle.
“These are three new transfers. The order only just came to me before they got here. They’ll be bunking in your bunk house. I’m going to separate the two lovebirds who keep everyone else awake all night” Justin said.
“You know about them?” I asked.
“I know everything you guys do.” He said.
“Hello ma’am. I’m Eric and this is Jesse and Ben.” Eric introduced.
“Lilly. Not ma’am.” I insisted.
“Well, you’ve now got three friends to join you on the obstacle course.” Justin said.
“Look at the size of these guys. Do you really think I’m going to beat them?” I asked.
“It’ll give you more incentive.” He
smirked. But I just shook my headet
and
we all got
my water bottle dowelet
to position.
This son of a bitch is going to kill me. I just know it.
At least I’ll go down fighting.
