Fool Me Twice, Then What?

by Secuoia
The boundary between mental and physical toughness is defined, and yet using one or the other can help us reach different goals. One solution could be brawn while another takes brains, but when the will is tested it can go much farther than expected.

Velvet Whisper is a little past new to this whole street-ninja, parkour thing, and training is hard. The running isn't too hard for her, because she likes it. The hard part is the people she has to deal with. Being the only girl in the squad, she goes through some heckling before the day is over. Whisper walks the balance of being accepted, and being rejected. Being good enough to stay, or being a complete failure. Having friends even just a phone call away can make a world of difference. But one day on a training run, she has the inevitable fall that all trainees go through. It's just, there are times when we fall and we can laugh, brush it off, and then move along or try again. But sometimes... It's just not worth laughing over.
