   When we were allowed inside and the doors closed immediately behind us, thankfully, I took my place away from all the others knights. The train began to move at once.

   The speed initially takes my breath away. Of course, I've never been on a train, as travel between the towns is forbidden except for official duties. For us, everything was given to us freely since we were royalties who had businesses all around the country and for the knights, they had to protect the entire country so it was a duty to travel.

   I guess there's no backing out at this point. At the last minute, I remember the little golden pin my mother gave to me a while ago, this moment felt like eternity. I fiddled with it for a bit before hanging it on my black shirt then zipped my jacket back up.

   "I was sitting with the boys when they pointed out the fact that you were the only girl with us this year," my boyfriend informed me then added. "And they were talking about breaking you from the first day of training. I'm very worried for you, I don't think you did the right choice picking after all." Wow and here I thought that he would support me and tell me to not listen to them because I'm going to outshine them all but I get him, he's concerned for me.

   "Don't worry I'll eat them for lunch before they'll have me for dinner" I replied, confident that for the next months these boys won't bring me any problems. Of course I talked too soon.

   A boy with brown curly hair, taller, more muscular than me was walking my way with a sick grin on his face. How I wished that I could wipe that smile on his face with my knuckles.

   "So you're the famous Olivia, the only girl that joined the knights because she knew that she isn't enough for the prince. Well let me tell you that you're not worth being a knight either. You should plant some flowers or cook some food in the kitchens, huh who am I kidding? You would set them on fire. Go talk with the king maybe he could find you a place with the maids." He's got a lot of nerves saying these words to me now but I couldn't respond to him, not now, not after I left my mother alone in our big house. I could tell that she's scared that I'll end up like my father.

   "Go back to your place and sit Lucas, she's really not in the mood for you now." At least I have Jason by my side but the problem is that this boy Lucas smirked wider and continued talking shitty of me, and that made my boyfriend angrier and more protective of me.

   "Oh now I got it. You've got Goldie boy here to guard you and talk instead of you. How cute. Listen up if you ever think that you'll take charge and be treated like a princess well you're wrong. You're our snack during the trainings. Got it?" Well I got a plan to show you that I understood what you said literally. Although I think Jason- Oh no, he was already going to pick a fight with him. I didn't have time to pull him back and make him sit next to me again. As soon as Lucas turned around, my boyfriend charged at him from behind knocking him to the ground, face first. I heard Lucas mutter a small curse underneath his breath before turning around, grabbing Jason's arm and swinging him above his shoulders on the floor, then slamming his fists right into my boyfriend's face.

   This is going to be a tough fight. Both of them so stubborn and angry. I tried to scream to Jason to stop but he didn't even acknowledge me; if I tried to take them away from each other I'm sure I'll get right into the middle of them and receive a hit in my guts.

   They were tangled on the floor, spitting, screaming and trying to tear each other apart. What is wrong with these boys? Everyone was already gathered around them, watching as if it was an action movie. Where are the guards? Shouldn't they be here already?

   As if they heard my prayers, four guards came running from the doors that leads to the controlling cart. These two teenagers were so violent that even the guards got a few hits but thanks to their metal armor, it didn't really affect them but it did to the boys, they both winced when their fists connected with their bodies. It was a hard time trying to keep the two boys away from each other but they managed to do at the end.
