"Claire get up!" A voice came from the doorway. I groaned as it got closer.

"Claire wake the fuck up. You know how Zach gets when we are late for training." I heard Cole's voice louder than ever.

"Shit what time is it?" I jumped up from bed, running to the bathroom in my room and brushing my hair up into a ponytail.

"7:23" Cole stated simply.

"What the hell?! Why didn't you wake me up earlier?" I yelled at him as he leaned against the door.

"Well I didn't want to wake you. You seemed pretty mad last night so I didn't want to make it worse, but after a while you still didn't get up and I didn't want you to be late so I had to wake you up." He explained.

"Dammit. Get out of my way." I pushed past him, stressed as I threw on my sweats and headed towards the door to my bedroom, Cole following.

"We better hurry before we are late." He spoke as we walked down the hall.

"I know. I know."

"That means walking isn't gonna cut it Claire." He said, starting to jog.

"I'll make it just fine."

"No you won't."

"Yes. I. Will." I argued.

"Fuck Claire this isn't the time. I don't want Zach to hurt you." He stated as he picked me up and thew me over his shoulder beginning to jog.

"Cole put me down right now! I can walk! I have legs." I squirmed.

"No. You can't walk. We have 2 minutes until training and we have to get all the way down to the gym." He said as he held on to me tighter starting to run.

"Woah there. Since when did you get faster than me?!" I stated loudly as he continued to run.

"Since always."

"What are you talking about? We all know I ran faster than you for the past forever. Have you been holding back on me?" I said in semi-shock but laughed it off.

"Huh, maybe I have been little sister."

"I think we need to race later. You will not beat me. I will not let you win. But don't you dare hold back on me."

"Okay then. Good luck with that." He made slide remarks as he slowed to a stop at the gym doors.

As we walked in, Zach was standing there as if he had been waiting for hours just staring at us.

"Hello Cole." He waved, then looked at me with an evil glare "Claire." He smirked. "How'd you like the meeting yesterday?" He asked cruelly.

Cole glanced at me and gave me that look. That look that said 'don't say anything. You know what will happen.' So I let it go... Again.

Do you know how tired I am of just letting it go? Trust me, I'm not going to let this go. He might not see how bad he fucked up now, but just you wait.

"Hm. Don't want to answer that? Come here." He demanded, so I walked towards him. "Don't be afraid little girl. Come closer." So I did, but before he could strike I landed a punch to his jaw. He soon moved his hand to it as if in shock, but ended up laughing.

"Awe, how sweet. You're learning. You really think you can handle me though? I guess we can find out if you really want, although I thought we established this yesterday."

"Clearly we didn't." I confidently stated.

"Claire" Cole glared.

"Fuck Cole I can handle my self. Can't you just let me li-" was all I could get out before I was tackled to the ground.

"First mistake, you let your brother distract you." He spoke allowed on top of me.

While he was speaking I managed to pull him down closer to my face as I flipped us over landing a punch to his nose.

"Wow, you have me impressed. See you have some skill, but you don't" he shoved me to the side in one swift motion, pulling me up by my hair. "Have any strength." He finished me off by wrapping his arm around my throat and closing in on me until I was on the floor.

*Cole's POV*

"What the hell Zach?!" I yelled at him as my injured little sister fell to the floor.

"Well she needed to learn her lesson didn't she? She thinks she can run that pretty little mouth of hers to anyone, but she's dead wrong. She's going to get herself killed like that. But why should I care? She's going to get herself killed regardless. We all know what she is capable of doing, what her precious little mind is thinking. She doesn't think we are that stupid does she?" He spoke cleverly to me with a smirk.

"W-what do you mean?" What is my little sister capable of doing that is going to get her killed? I don't understand. I dont-

"You don't see it? Well maybe she was right. Some of us are pretty dumb. She wants to take us down."

"Take us down? Who's us? What do you mean?"

"The government you imbecile. She wants to join the rebellion. We all overheard that little conversation you all were having. You never suspected it? Not once? Come on. It'll be fun to watch her try, don't you think? We should give her a head start. See what she does. See where she goes."

Dammit. He's right isn't he. But what is so wrong with this government? We have to keep this country under control somehow. Don't we?

"Hey Cole. Did you hear me? Aren't you going to answer?" Zach taunted.

"Yeah, yeah sorry. I guess I didn't notice. But what's so bad about our government, about us, that would lead her to the rebellion?"

"I don't know Cole. She's insane. Something is wrong with her and I am afraid she will try to kill you before she leaves, so you must watch yourself okay?" He spoke calmly. She wouldn't kill me! I'm her twin. She wouldn't kill me! But... Maybe she is capable of what I did... Maybe she is. But we are closer. Claire and I are closer. I don't think she could do that. She wouldn't do that. Especially when she freaked out over killing that stupid girl from the meeting. She couldn't.
