"Olivia, punch stronger!" The man, I learned his name was Arthur commanded me again. I was pissed and gave it my all into that punch.
"Good, now we just need to practise more. Throw your punches faster and heavier. Your fist must be relaxed after each punch before punching again. If not, your energy will deplete faster than you think. You need power with less energy used." He instructed and gave me a demonstration in slow motion.
I punched again but this time he dodged it. Narrowing my eyes, I faked a punch to the right and punched to the left. It hit his stomach. He groaned a little.
"That was very good, you are truly a Thorn. Angel, remind me to never piss you off..." He kept his stance as I continued to give him blows until he threw a punch at me. I took his hand and twisted it behind his back. He gritted his teeth and groaned.
"Who did you learn this move from?" He questioned with gritted teeth.
"Like you said I'm a Thorn." I muttered and rolled my eyes.
"You are definitely strong at hand-to-hand. I'll set you to train with Hector who is the best coach here." He cleared his throat as I let go of him, still keeping my stance.
"We'll now go and test your weaponry skill... Which is your best?" He ran a hand through his damp hair.
"Weaponry? I don't know. My Father never said which was my best." I crossed my arms.
"You said that your Father never told you which moves you were the best at. I guess we'll have to test you out again, Thorn." He grinned a little and led me out of the room. I kept my face blank and nodded my head. His grin faltered a little but kept his mouth shut.
"Hey there, cousin! How were your lessons?" Grace smiled at me and I shrugged my shoulders in response. As I walked towards where Will was sitting, I realised that Edward and Adrian will be joining us.
"Hello, how was lesson with Professor Garrett?" Adrian asked as I sat down.
"It was fine." I replied and grabbed my sandwich.
"Don't mind my cousin, she's always like that." Grace swatted her hand.
"Which reminds me, my business stays my business. Don't ever tell anyone anything without my permission again, Grace." I looked at her and she kept quiet.
"Hey, I know that you have problems but you don't have to treat your family that way. You aren't respecting elders you know..." Edward explained.
"You're right. My problems are My problems, not yours." I faked a smiled and bit into my sandwich. Will cleared his throat.
"Well, you heard about the face-off at 5pm right?" Will nudged me and I nodded.
"You're not invited." Adrian spat out.
"Hey there dude, she's invited. Everyone is." Edward placed his hand on Adrian's shoulder.
"Which reminds me, what is a face-off?" Grace questioned.
"A face-off is where one person fights physically against another. But we're doing fencing instead. It is our forte anyways." Edward explained while smiling at her.
"Cool. You do fencing." I looked at him and he nodded.
"Yep, as a Prince, I have to." He gave me a crooked smile.
"Prince huh?" I stared at him for a second before finishing my sandwich.
"Yeah, he's a Prince. You have disregarded a Prince and his knight's orders. You could be executed." Adrian replied nonchalantly.
I raised both eyebrows, "Then maybe you should execute me."
"No one is going to do that." Edward grimaced.
I stood up and curtsied, mocking them, "Good day, Prince Edward and Knight Adrian."
"Olivia!" Grace scowled in response. Will smiled in amusement.
Adrian grinned in response, "You're dismissed." Edward pulled his lips into a tight line and stopped me from leaving. However, I just faked a smile and walked off with the entire cafeteria at pin-drop silence and wide eyes staring.
"We apologise for our cousins behaviour." I heard Grace apologise.
