"Protectors are the Warriors of Olympus," Selene said, her lovely purple eyes looking straight at us as she continued to explain everything. "And as Warriors, you must be familiar with your weapons," She said as she raised her Trident and pointed it at us. "Now, go and learn how to use your weapons properly."

Agad naming sinunod ang sinasabi niya, inangat ang mga napili naming armas as I stared at my Father's sword.

I believe in you, I mumbled as I stared at it intently, Father.

"Aww!" Malakas na sigaw ni Caleb, making me looked at his way as he tried to get up and stand from the ground. "This thing is so heavy!"

"It's not heavy, Wolfram." Amara said, her blue eyes staring blankly at Caleb as she continued to release her arrows and pointed it directly at the direction of Caleb's Spear. "It's just that you're too weak."

"Hey!" Caleb exclaimed, his hazel eyes widened upon what Amara said as he removed Amara's arrow from his weapon. "How dare you threw an arrow on my beautiful weapon? And I am not weak!"

"Whatever you say, Wolfram." Amara said, shrugging her shoulders as she continued to throw arrows directly at the direction of the tree, making it's apples drop to the ground and Amara smiled with satisfaction. "You're still a weakling to me."

"Oh, Amara," Caleb said, his hazel eyes looking straight at Amara as he acted like he was being shot in the heart. "Why do you hate me so much?"

"Stop messing around, Protectors." Selene said, making everyone stopped from what we are doing as she raised her eyebrows at us. "You're in a battlefield, is that the way how a Protector should act?"

Natahimik ang lahat sa sinabi niya, 'tila natauhan kasabay ng pagbuntong-hininga niya't sinabing, "Stop with the weapon training, it is now time for you to learn more about your Powers," Aniya't itinawag ang mga guardian namin. "And your guardians will help you with that."

Napalingon kaming lahat sa aming mga guardian as I stared at my Dragon, my red-head guardian with burning eyes.

"You mean," Belle said with questioning eyes as she stared at Selene. "They are going to teach us how to control our powers?"

"Yes," Selene answered as Heather, her little fairy guardian placed herself on Selene's shoulder. "So listen well and remember," Aniya't diretso kaming tinitigan sa mga mata. "Always look for the real enemy."

"Real enemy," I mumbled as I remembered what Selene said and continued to make a small fire in my hand. Who is the real enemy?

Napatigil na lamang ako sa ginagawa ko nang bigla akong bugahan ng apoy ng Guardian ko, making me rose from my seat as I immediately covered my self with my own fire walls.

I stared at him directly, shocked and confusion registered in my face as I said, "Why did you do that?"

He just looked at me with expressionless burning eyes as if he was bored and telling me, its showtime.

"Do you want to kill me?" Sabi ko't napanganga nang muli siyang magbuga ng malakas na apoy, making me run and hide behind a tree and said, "I thought we were friends?"

"You're still one stupid Protector." A cold voice said, making me looked at Selene's direction who was standing right in front of me as she said, "So stupid that even your own Guardian wants to kill you."

"Selene!" Gulat na sabi ko, looking at her straight in the eye and said, "What's wrong with him? W-why is he trying to kill me?"

"Because you're stupid," Aniya't nilingon ang Guardian 'kong nakatitig sa akin at 'tila naghihintay sa akin. "Can't you see? He was waiting for you to fight."

Napakunot-noo ako, stared at my Guardian with questioning eyes and said, "You mean, he wants me to attack him?"

"Obviously," Selene answered as she raised her eyebrows at me. Her signature move. "You're here to train, Zion. Not to make tiny fire balls." Aniya't itinuro ang palad 'kong may maliit na bola ng apoy. "Now, go and show him what you got."

Napalunok ako, kabadong nilingon ang Guardian ko kasabay ng muling pag-buga niya ng apoy na agad 'kong inilagan at ginantihan ng malaking bola ng apoy.

So, he wants to know how far I can go. I mumbled as I continued to attack him with different fire techniques. Well, I'll show him.

I opened my palms and released a different kind of energy, almost making me lose my balance as I released a huge wave of fire, it was slowly spreading to the ground just like a tsunami.

Napatigil ang Dragon sa kaniyang kinatatayuan dahil sa ginawa ko't bago pa man siya tuluyang malamon ng apoy ay agad siyang lumipad palayo.

"Not bad," Kumento ni Heather mula sa balikat ni Selene sabay mahinang pumalakpak. "But, you're still stupid."

Napangiti na lamang ako sa sinabi niya't mahinang bumulong, the shy bee.

"Hey!" Aniya nang mabasa ang nasa utak ko't pinandilatan ako ng mata. "I'm not a bee!"

"Stop it you two," Pigil samin ni Selene bago pa man magka-world war kasabay ng pagngiti niya sa akin. "That was really good, Zion." Aniya't tinapik ang balikat ko. "Keep it up."

Napatigil ako, suddenly found myself looking directly at her as if I'm completely lost with her lovey purple eyes.

"Sorry na!" Malakas na sigaw ni Caleb, making us glanced at his direction and saw him running away with terrified eyes as he continued to dodge Amara's sharp air arrows.

"Alright, I'm sorry! Hindi ko na uulitin!" Aniya't tinapon ang apple na may kagat na 'tila ninakaw mula sa mga naipong apple ni Amara kanina sa weapon training. "Please, spare my life!"

"I hate you, Wolfram!" Amara shouted, anger and irritation written in her eyes as she continued to release sharp air arrows at Caleb's direction. "You must pay for that, I--"

Hindi na natuloy ni Amara ang sinasabi niya't katulad niya ay napanganga na lamang kami nang makita siyang lumilipad at may pakpak sa likod.

W-what's happening? Sabi ko't napakunot ng noo. Why is she flying with, wings?

"Her blood has finally awaken," Selene said, her purple eyes staring directly at Amara's wings as she said these words.

"She's an angel."
