"Here sir. We have pyro gauntlet for your first battle" a maid said, bowing and holding out a gauntlet."thank you" he got the gauntlet and bowed, putting it on his right hand he instantly felt a surge of power. "Please go outside to train, we will give you more gauntlets as you go on but you need to choose your primary." The maid bowed again before leaving. The boy started to go into another room. He went out to see apple with a cloud like dog, petting it as she was watched him walk out. As he did she waved and geode did back, then looking over to the queen who stood waiting. "Finally. I wont go easy because this world is not all fun and games" she went into fighting stance, holding what seemed to be two balls of light, her eyes were glowing and as they did it gave off a dangerous aura, staring into his. He got ready to fight, getting into a bad fighting stance. It was his first time after all, he stared back tensing his hand up made his right hand feel hot, he looked over to see he welded a fireball. "You can shape and use it, some use it to throw." The boy threw it like a ball at the queen and she dodged with a roll, dashing at him. With little to no reaction timr the boy got punched in the face, launching far into the courtyard, everytime he hit the floor he would skip and fling longer. He finally got a hold of himself and dashed, welding the fire into a sword. Suprised at his knowledge she dodged, yet the boy reached her and she got slashed and knocked to the floor. The boy stopped and looked over at the queen who stared, danger in her eyes as she stared into his. It struck fear into him
As she dashed at him again. Again and again he dodged and attacked and not once he got hit. After a bit the queen, all bruised up, nodded. "You have passed the normal combat. Your next task is water and it will go through every power until you have mastered all against all." The boy nodded as the queen said that."I havent got your name mrs-?" "Rena. You?" "Geode" he bowed. "I was going softly. Dont act sympathetic and dont feel-" she dashed and punched geode in the chest, launching him as blood flew out of his mouth. "I knew it. Human"-she flung into the air as the boy bounced off the floor, slamming him back down launching him up again. As the boy slammed against the floor once more he got up, blood falling slightly out his mouth. "You humans dont belong, nor should know about this place."she kicked him once more sending him toward a wall with a thud, making a dent into the wall. A whirring was heard and as the boy looked up rena was flying with a bolt of lightning dancing in her hand. She pointed toward the boy but as she was about to strike apple stood infront of geode."out of the way apple. Those humans dont belong with palarians." "NO!" She formed a shield behind her to cover geode, who was gushing blold out of his mouth. The queen got down from flying and walked toward apple "sweetheart. If they figure out they will torture him more than i have already." "H-he has potential!" "Hard to believe. But go on." "I wont let him die!" "Fine. If they find out he is human you are not going out of the castle and he will be executed" those were the last words he heard before he passed out.
"Hngh.." The boy groaned, he sat up and noticed that apple sat next to him, holding his hand. Her eyes had a stronger affect of 'comfort' and were glowing pink. The boy tried to pull away but the girl held tighter, pushing a blush from geode."hold still. You are not ready to get up" the girl closed her eyes and geode realized he felt better than ever. Looking over he saw rena, as he did he squeeled "quiet. I wont hurt you." She got up from sitting with her legs crossed. "I gave you a golem ring to counteract the light gravity here, you will feel more- normal, it should get you to be stronger and faster." She sat back and watched him struggle to figure out how to respond to the new light gravity. "If your gonna protect her. Protect yourself. Watch where you spill your blood" Rena stood and walked out "and nothing weird you two." She glared at apple who glared back. Geode blushed as soon as he figured out what Rena meant. "Tomorrow i have school, you have to join me Geo" She smiled at him. . .
