Third Person P.O.V.
Soon after Adrian was done reminiscing about his past, Dante woke up. He was confused at first, but then Adrian reminded him of what happened. Dante gazed into the cloudless sky and said: "Adrian, let's begin training again." Adrian raised an eyebrow, "But you've just woken up, you should rest more before you.." "No!" Dante exclaimed, "If I want to protect those closest to me, I've gotta train."



"Very well then." Adrian replied in his monotonous voice. "Stand Dante, we're going to play a game that tests your reflexes." "What game is it?" Dante asked. "Dodge-ball." Adrian replied smirking.




Dante's P.O.V.
Dodge-ball? Sounds interesting, Adrian began walking towards the woods, I followed him until we had reached a clearing, but what I saw surprised me, for instead of normal dodge-balls, they were CANNONBALLS. "Be careful Dante," Adrian said still smirking. "Get hit with one of these, and you'll be killed instantly." My eyes widened, "You wouldn't dare..." my voice trailed off as i felt a cannonball whiz past me, missing my head by an inch and flying straight through the tree behind me. "Oh, did I look like I was joking?" Adrian said his face now in a slightly evil grin. "The next one will hit you Dante, watch out."




Third Person P.O.V.
Adrian wound up his arm, and threw, this time the cannonball landed right by Dante's foot, Dante, his expression one of extreme resolve yelled: "COME AT ME ADRIAN!" "Gladly." Adrian replied smirking. Cannonball after cannonball was thrown, Dante barely dodging them, once he had come so close to losing an arm, but the cannonball grazed his skin. "Oh, did I tell you, if you can catch one, you win." Adrian was now grinning out of pure anticipation of him landing a hit, the great Adrian, was starting to lose control of his blood-lust. "I'll catch one!" Dante exclaimed dodging a cannonball before it could come crashing into his chest. "Okay, time to step things up." Adrian's muscles started to tense as he began moving at superhuman speeds, dodge-balls flying left, right and center.




Dante's P.O.V.
There is no way I can survive this volley of dodge-balls, they're coming at me from all directions! I have an idea, I closed my eyes and I tried to draw out the energy of my crystal, however I got a poor response as only a tiny bit of white energy came over my body, not even a quarter of how much was released when I took the pill. This will have to do! "LET'S RUMBLE, ADRIAN!" I lashed out with my right arm knocking away one cannonball, I ducked avoiding the one going for my head, but not without losing a bit of hair, I karate chopped to the left, smashing another cannonball. Then I formed my hands like how  a cricketer would when he catches a ball, and I shot my arm's into the air, using the remainder of my crystal energy to cushion the ball. Then I fell backwards, "See Adrian," I said panting "I caught it."




Adrian's P.O.V.
So he did. Interesting, and he figured out how to call on a bit of his crystal energy, pretty good for a rookie. Now we have to change location for the next phase of the Assassin training. I'd better break the news to him. "Dante," I said, extending my arm out to him, he gathered his strength and pushed the cannonball away. Then he grabbed my arm and pulled himself up. "Good job," I commended him. "But now we have to change locations for the next phase of your training." Dante groaned. "Where are we going?" he asked. "To the ocean." I replied. "At the ocean I will teach you how to swim and you will also learn some combat moves, and maybe, just maybe, teach you more about your crystal power." "Awesome!" Dante exclaimed. "We're leaving immediately, gather you're belongings and let's leave." Dante ran into the for his stuff and returned ten minutes later with clothes, food, a sleeping bag and two staffs. I grabbed my bag from where I had been hiding it and picked up Dante bridal style once again, and teleported to the location. Once we arrived I thought to myself, 'So this is it. The training continues.'
