I woke up in Deathbringer's arms with a yawn. I stretched a bit before creeping out of bed and getting my stuff ready, when I was done I found Deathbringer still asleep in bed. So I decided to bring him breakfast in bed. I went downstairs and grabbed him a bowl of cereal and some orange juice with a hidden lemon in it. I went up stairs with the tray and woke him up.

"Hey sleepyhead! Wake up!" I said, shaking his shoulder.

"But what if I don't want to?" he asked sleepily, not bothering to move.

"If you're awake enough to ask me that your awake enough to get up." I said, poking him in the ribs.

"Aww come on! Just five more minutes?" he asked.

"My mom is watching how dopey you are." I whispered.

"WHAT?!" he said, lifting his head in a hurry and fell off the bed.

"Well, that was easy." I said, smiling at him with a triumphant grin.

"You're evil." he said, getting up.

"If I was that evil, would I be giving you a free breakfast in bed...whoops! I mean floor?" I said with giggle.

"Well if it was poisoned, then yeah! You would!" he said, stretching. I helped him up and handed him the tray. He spotted the orange juice and brightened up.

"Thanks! I am so parched! I don't think I had a drink since yesterday!" he said, picking up the juice. I could barely hold my laughter as he began to chug it down, and when it was almost gone, he stopped. He stood there frozen for a heartbeat then made a sour face. He quickly put down his drink and put his talons to his mouth, his face wrinkled up in a disgusted look. He pulled out a lemon from his mouth, giving it a confused look. I couldn't hold it any longer, and began to bark with laughter.

"So it WAS poisoned! You dirty trickster!" he cried, I just laughed and laughed.

"Why are you so evil?!" he said, making me laugh even more. When I had control of myself, I stuck my tongue out at him.

"I will have to remember that trick for later!" he said.

"You couldn't pull a trick on me even you had practiced it all your life!" I said teasingly.

"We'll see about that!" he said.

"Bring it!" I said. 


We got ready for school and headed out, we decided to walk to school with our friends so we weren't completely lonely. We would do shoving matches and would be very loud on the way to school. Sunny kept trying to get pictures of me and Deathbringer together, Tsunami and Clay were in a shoving match, while Starflight had his tail entwined around Sunny's and would tell her jokes about a certain scroll they had read. Me and Deathbringer would play along with Tsunami and Clay, nearly shoving Sunny into the middle of the street along with poor Starflight. When we finally got to school, we were all pumped up and ready for school. 

When we got out of history, we headed towards the battle training grounds. It was literally an arena with battle gear that was appropriate for practice and mats and pads everywhere, oh, and Kestrel too. 

"Alright you depressing worms, who's ready for a fight!" roared Kestrel.

"WE ARE, GENERAL KESTREL!" the class said as one, standing up straight. We had to call her General or she would bite our heads off, just something she made us do.

"Alright! At ease trainees!" she roared. We relaxed our posture, and stood still in a line as she paced in front of us.

"Alright, I don't want any blood today. No fire, no freezing-death-breath, no VENOM!" Kestrel stopped in front of me, whipped her head and lowered it so she was eye level with me.
