~ The Hidden Enemy ~ Book 2

~ Prologue ~

It's been a year since his death, I've still trained to my limits.

~**~Duke~**~

I've trained for the past year, I was a little surprised when Kate and Chris wanted to help though.

I had new scars, a new reputation. I was no longer in grief though, just anger.

Because that shadow did kill me twin, and no one kills those I care for, not without facing me.

''Kate, Chris! Get your weapons in hand, it's time for sword training.'' I said, my voice stony cold.

Chris made a little in-ward groan, while Kate just moved silently, grabbing their swords and taking positions.

I grabbed my own sword, balancing it in my hand before taking my own position.

''No real wounds this time'' I said, my hand glowing black before magic tinted our swords, causing them to only leave bruises.

..........

After the silence was held, ''Go.'' I said, backing up as Chris rolled to where I was.

I smiled, one eye on Chris, one eye on Kate, who was creeping around the battle place, creeping behind Chris.

I darted to the side, sweeping his legs out from under him. Kate jumping from the darkness as I did, making me dart backwards, pre-paring to strike again.

She rested her sword to Chris's chest, in-dictating that Chris was out, and it was just me and Kate left.

''Don't tease the sword with tricks Kate.'' I said as she flicked her sword out, as if she was going to hit me, but the sword came back to her grasp with efficient swiftness.

I kept a stone face as we circled each other, my feet darting me forward, Kate dodging and tripping me in the process.

I fell on my stomach, feeling the tip of the cold sword against my throat I knew I was defeated.

The sword was removed, as I stood up Chris walked back into the battle field.

''Good Job Kate, Chris.'' I said, sheathing my sword.

And this. Has been the past year.

Welcome to season 2,
