They woke up the next morning with the same feeling as yesterday:
Pain.
Fear.
Regret.
Han Yi opened his eyes and immediately groaned.
"No… I'm alive… why am I alive…?"
Mu Chen tried to stretch, then froze.
"My back… made a crunch sound… is that normal…?"
Yue pushed herself up slowly.
"I didn't sleep well… I had nightmares of logs chasing me…"
Lei Feng stared at the ceiling.
"I dreamed I died… it was peaceful… then I woke up… tragic."
Ling stood up from her bed.
Perfect.
Energetic.
Fresh.
"Good morning," she said politely.
Han Yi pointed at her again.
"I SAID THIS YESTERDAY— WHY ARE YOU LIKE THIS?!"
Ling tilted her head.
"Did you sleep?"
Han Yi shouted,
"Yes!! But it didn't help!!"
They barely had time to breathe before—
BANG BANG BANG
A heavy knock hit their doors.
Han Yi jumped.
"NO!! NO MORE!!"
Mu Chen whispered,
"I'm scared… very scared…"
Yue rubbed her eyes.
"Let me guess… training."
Lei Feng sighed.
"Every day is pain… every tomorrow is worse…"
