"Wait what's so bad about Coach Herden?" I asked.

Amara's head whipped towards me, "You don't know about Coach Herden?!"

"Well duh, I've only been here for less than a day genius."

"Oops, forgot."

"Coach Herden is really strict, and well... is known to have... harsh punishments," Emilia said quietly.

"Well, I think I can handle it. I got a duel today anyways."

"Really? With who?" Amara inquired.

"Hayden Aurand," I replied.

Amara's eyes widened, "Really?! Oh my goodness, he's like the strongest fighter here. And since your like a Mafia Boss, I think this will be a really good fight."

"Y-yeah I think so too," Emilia chirped in.

"You really need more self confidence hun," I told Emilia.

"..."

"My point exactly."

We all walked into the gym where for the second time today I was greeted by loud yelling, ...except this time from the students.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!"

"HELP ME PLEASE!"

"I DONT WANT TO DIE!"

I saw at least 30 students being absolutely demolished by a tennis ball machine.

A bit... unexpected to say the least.

"OK CLASS, IT IS I, COACH HERDEN, SICE YOU ARE ALL ON TIME, I WONT BRING OUT THE BASEBALL THROWER," some students shuddered, "IF YOU DON'T PARTICIPATE IN ANY OF THE EXERCISES, YOU WILL FAIL. EVERYONE CLEAR?"

We all nodded our heads really quickly. It seemed as if PE teachers here had a style.

"OK WE WILL START OFF WITH TWENTY LAPS AROUND THE GYM!"

We all internally groaned, not daring to do it aloud, in fear of the horrifying tennis ball machine, and started running. I took this time to notice how the gym looked. It was a perfectly rectangular space, with six bright LED lights running along the top. There were air conditioning units in between the lights cooling us all down. Since it was a bright and sunny day, running around without the air conditioning would probably cause even more kids to faint.

I looked around for Hayden who I realized was running closely behind me, he flashed me that blinding smile, so I sped up a little a looked straight ahead.

Speaking of unconscious people, Coach Herden was chucking them into the middle of the room, onto a crash pad. I'm not sure how he hasn't been fired yet, truly.

As I finished my twentieth lap, I was a bit out of breath. I realized that the only other person done was Hayden.

<Trinh has encountered a wild hot man that might try to kill her>

<Will she talk to him? Or ignore him?>

<Unexpected attack!: Opponent uses "Hello"!>

<Options: "Hello" or "Ignore">

<Unlocked option: -Incoherent Mumbling->

I incoherently mumbled something  back at him which could be considered greetings.

"How are you doing?" He asked all smiley as usual.

"Uh... fine I guess..." I just looked to my right avoiding his eyes.
