The Next Guardian

Episode 4

"It's time to get up", an unknown voice said. When I looked up I saw him. A kid in my age, he had blond hair, brown eyes, and a scar spread across the right side of his face. Something about him said he's not the kid to mess with. "Who are you?" I asked. "I'm Sean, your trainer. Come on, we have lots of work to do."
"Wait." I said, and he stopped just before he exited the room. "What are we training for, exactly?". He smiled. "To beat your, and actually, our, enemy." He said like he's trying to be mysterious. I put on my jacket, my jeans and the shoes my mom bought for me. It was the middle of the summer, but it was cold in the island. When I walked out, I saw Sean carrying a sword, a bow and arrow, and walking towards me. "Here", he said, "you get the sword. I get the bow and arrow". He handed me the sword. It was made of steel. It was quite heavy, but somehow, even that I didn't hold a sword before, I felt like it was the right place for me. And I felt like the sword was meant to be held by me.
"OK," Sean said, smiling, "it's time for training".

We walked to a large building. It had a large red door in the front of it, and it was painted in white. On the door, on a wooden sign, which looked like it has been there for years, was written: "The Training Hall". Me and Sean walked in, through the big red door, and then I've seen it. The most beautiful building I have ever seen.

The walls were white, and there was no ceiling, so you could see the sky. In every corner, there was equipment for you to train with. "Like it?", Sean asked. "Oh yes", I said, still amazed by how beautiful the place had been, and how much I felt like this is my place for me to be. "OK, so to start training, we need to connect you to your dragon blood", said Sean. "And how do we do that?" I asked. "Oh well, that's the fun part", said Sean, with some excitement in his voice.  

"So, by your knowledge, what's the thing that characterizes dragons the most?", asked Sean. "Umm... well.... fire, I think", I replied. "Good. So to release your inner dragon, we need to.. warm you up", and I noticed he had a little smile on his face. He went to the other side of the building, and when he came back, in his hand, there was a stick, burning with blue fire. "See, this is a special fire. For normal humans, it's worse than fire. It consumes them, and they never die. Their souls are being tortured. But for Guardians, it connects to their dragon blood, and they are becoming stronger, like something in their blood is waking up". "So", I said, "how do we do this?" I asked. "You just need to touch it, and concentrate", he said. He handed the stick to me, and then I brought my hand closer to the fire. As soon as I touched the fire, I felt like my whole body is on fire. The room started to get darker and darker, and before I noticed, I fainted on the floor of the training hall.
