Beginning death pt 2

As Nathan woke up he looked around and realized 3 things, 1 he was in some kind of white pajama looking uniform he assumed, 2 he had not just had a convincing dream, and 3 this wasn't where he had gone to sleep. This room looked the same except that there were 3 other people sleeping there in more rectangular bamboo cots and they were all about his age. All of a sudden a loud alarm sounded in the room and the same old man who Nathan had talked to walked in with a bamboo walking pole. One person had woken up, a girl Nathan was surprised to see, she had red hair and looked rather fragile, he didn't know why but he had figured this as a kind of male only military facility. Another girl got up this one was an almost identical match except that she had blond hair. The resident of the third cot still slept with a rather loud snoring. The old man gave the sleeping cots occupant onto sharp thwack with his pole in what Nathan assumed was the head. Nathan's assumption was proved correct when a red haired man sat up rubbing his head "why did ya not hit the rest o em?" asked the red haired man who had been looking at the other three people, "because they were awake" the old man said as one imparting great widome. The old man the turned his attention from the red haired man to the rest of them "this is the first day of your training, you may call me sensei musashi". "You have each been specially selected and assigned to this group"said sensei musashi. "how did ya do dat?" asked the red haired boy. "By putting all your names in a special hat and then picking them out in groups of four" said sensei musashi. The boy with the red hair scowled but personally Nathan thought it was funny. "talk later training time is now" said sensei musashi. And Nathan knew this would be interesting.
