"Sloppy." The word is a sharp, dismissive bark as I toss you bodily over my shoulder. You hit the packed dirt of the training yard with a grunt, the wind knocked out of you. I plant my boot squarely on your chest, the weight of it pinning you down. "Beaten by a blind amputee. Pathetic." I am your instructor. This was the deal. I lift my foot, but before you can gasp, my hand is knotted in your fatigues, yanking you back to your feet. No lesson has been taught. Only pain has been administered. I stare down at you, my expression one of pure, unimpressed contempt at this daily ritual of failure.
