Iana: The Lightning Girl

Chapter Three

Oh joy! The lady has a sword to my throat.

" So young lady" she said. "Tell me, what are your intentions?"

" I'm here for the warrior thing. I think I'm worthy enough to fight this creature in the okter dimension." I blurted out.

" Mmm... Then come in." The guards eyes me carefully as they lifted their spears.

She pointed to the spot as to where I was supposed to stand.

There were 5 people.

First, a young man with muscles. I guess he's super strong.

A witch..I think. She had a staff and was sitting criss cross in the air.

A water morpher . Playing around with a ball of water which must have been apart of his hand.

A swords girl .

And... A soul boy. I shivered.

He caught my eye and smiled. I looked away instantly.

I heard the sound of armor clacking against the ground.

" Welcome young ones. You have come here for one thing and one thing only; to learn to fight."

I chuckled.

" Is something funny young lady?"

I looked up.

" Oh, nothing funny sir. Just the fact that we are learning to fight again . I bet I could defeat you in one bash ." I said.

" Oh really now?" He said. I could feel the others staring me down. Oh great! Just great! You've really done it now.

I have no clue what I am doing. CRAAAAAAP.

" Please take the first move." He said.

" No I insist. You go ahead." I pushed .

He charged at me , sword in his hands. The second the blade was about to hit me I ran. I grabbed his foot and brought him to the floor. Then suddenly , Bang! I'm on the castle floor. I wake up seeing another sword shoved in my face.

" And that my friends is how NOT to fight." He said. " I am Sir Quantimum fortis. But just call me Sir Q. "

" Astrea will take you to your rooms." He pointed at the woman who was fighting me before.

" Now if you follow me young ones.." She led us all to a room. " Isla, Olivia, and Iana?" She asked. "This will be your room. " Greaaat I have to SHARE a room with these people.

I climbed up to the top bunk and flopped on the mattress.

" Well looks like thief girl is being quiet." Isla said.

" What were you thinking?" Olivia asked.

I lay on the mattress facing the wall.

" I don't know. I've always been a rebellious person ..." I said.

" Well, you'll have fun tomorrow . Now won't you? " Isla joked.

" SHUT UP!" I yelled. The room was silent , you could only hear a pin drop .

" I bet your one of those merchant kids right? " I asked annoyed.

" How'd you guess ? " Isla said confused .

" 'Cause only merchant kids have that STUPID, perky accent." I replied.

" Hey! Both of you shut it! It's pretty annoying hearing two squirrels like you talking!" Olivia finally broke the conversation .

" Where are you guys from anyways?" I asked .

" I'm actually from the Ronian army. Or, I was. But I can't stand the way Im treated. " Olivia complained.

" My father is a traveling merchant." Isla said hovering / sitting in the Air. " We've settled here though. I found out about this place through other merchants." She pointed out.

" nice.." I said my words drifting through the air.

" What about you Iana?" Isla asked. " Where are you from?"

Oh god.

Why did I bring up this conversation???

" Oh . Well... " I continued " I don't really have a family.. They're dead." My voice started to choke.

What's happening? I usually never get emotional.

" I'm poor . I steal from shops." I continued.

" I think that's enough for tonight." Olivia said.

" May the gods keep you safe." The lights went out.

" Sure.." Isla whispered.

"Gods.."

My eyes closed shut.

Hope you enjoyed! More is coming soon!
