The 3 Swords

Chapter 18: Juliet's POV

I woke in the morning, as the sun was fresh in the sky. The grass was damp and fog was drifting everywhere.

I sat up, unwrapping Andr'e's arm from my waist. The smell of smoke, filled the air as the fire was smoking. I swallowed a gulp, as morning taste fludded my mouth. I could tell by the sky, that is must have been no later than 6:30. I straightend my tanktop, and layed on my back, refixing my ponytail.

Today, we were likley going to find this guy we are after. They didn't tell us much, or say what this quest was going to be like. I was honestly scared. If they gave us a little heads up, on this then it wouldn’t be as bad. I was thinking about it all last night. What would we do? How would we fight him? Caris, so far, didn’t tell us of her battle plan. If she had one. What if I had to fight someone stronger than me? I don’t know if I could make it! At least I always had Andr’e.

He and I were inseparable. We have been going to the movies, going out to eat, picnics, and so much more! The time I’ve been spending him with him, is better than any other time of my life. He made feel like I was floating on air, made me feel like so safe, and secure.

I sighed, as I slowly stood up. My jeans were wrinkled, as I dusted them off. I hated sleeping on the ground, it hurt my back really bad. I stretched, out really far. I yawned as I walked over to Galexy, my horse.

I looked through my saddle bag, As I puled out my ninja suit. It was stretchy, black, and was made out of athletic fabric. It went to my ankles, to my wrists, and zipped to my neck, with a pull over, hood mask. I stood between my horses, acting as a sheild to change. It was so tight, it made me feel akward. To make it look more fun, I strapped on Sabrina's xx hi Converse, which I asked to borrow before we left. I pulled my blonde curls, into a high and tight ponytail, my bangs sweeping my eyes.

This was the first time I was going to use my suit. I walked carefully over to Caris's saddle, and opened the long, rectangle box, strapped to her horse. It carried our swords. I gentally took out my sword, as I tied it across my back. I filled my belt with ninja stars, posian bombs, and more weapons.

I did a quick, 5 minute, battle, pose, yoga meditation, then returned to my slumbering friends. "AHHHHH!" I screamed at the very top of my lungs, picking clean my nails.

"WOW""Wha?""huh?" and many more comments like these, sprung up, as they jumped to their feet, alerted by my wakeup screetch. "JULIET. RRR, WHY DID YOU DO THAT?" Caris yelled at me, scratching her head. I shrugged my shoulders in a innocent way, and walked over to the fire.

*****************

About an hour later, we all were wearing our battlesuits, as we continuing our trek. We had traveled all day, and found nothing. Caris told us we should have been there by now.

"I'm tired. Can we just go home?" I whined, Sabrina looking equally exhausted. "NOT untill we find Bad Kong." Caris whiped back. Wow. Sam was a lucky man...

"This doesn't make any sense! The tracking coordinates, The council gave us, suggested that we would be there by now!" Caris agrilly, slammed the GPS on the gorund, jumped off, and stomped it to a pulp.

"That's it. We should just split up and look the old fashion way." she said, huffing proudly, mounting her horse. "Great! I'll go with matt!" Sabrina said clapping with enjoyment. "Nice try, That's not how this is going to work. Sabrina, you and Juliet can look together, I'll look by myself, and the boys can look by themselves." She stated. "But how come we have to be paired up?" Sabrina whined, stroking Bubbles. "Because you to are...um-" "We are what, Caris? Weaker than you and the boys? That's SO unfair!" I screetched in pure anger.

I Was getting tired of everyone treating me like a baby. In my opinion, I was more fit and muscular than Caris and Sabrina, myself! I Wasn't the baby of the family, so why was I always being babysat? And I think I'm old enough to be with Andr'e! I mean when did Caris decide she gets to be the boss anyway?
