The Queens Of Dragons

{~ Chapter 5 ~}

Still Arabell Pov
I awoke to someone yelling at me to get up. "ARABELL GET UP! NOW!" They screamed. "I'M UP!" I yelled. I looked outside once they left and realized that it was still dark out. I checked the clock in my room and it read 5:45 am. I got out of bed, annoyed and still sleepy. Oh! They must've woken me up early so I could take a shower since I am suppose to report to the office at 7 am.

I walked to the bathroom and stripped down. I stepped into the shower and felt the hot water on my back. It felt so good!

After about 25 minutes in the shower, I got out and got ready for the day. Once I was ready it was 6:30 am. Okay. Just enough time!

I sprinted to the Great's Office. "Your 25 minutes early Arabell." I nodded, realizing it was 6:45. "Sorry. I didn't want to be late." I said. "It's fine. No one wants to be late to see their dragon." He said. "Heh, yah. Can I see her now?!?" I asked eagerly. "Yes. I'll take you there. Not most students are up until 7 but some wake up way to early." I nodded and followed.

I got to see Aradace for a little bit, until 7:30 am, but we talked and laughed. Once Caden came to get me, we said our goodbyes and I left her. "When do I get to ride my dragon? Or practice like archery or something?" I asked him. "Your first archery lesson is today with your teacher. Your first ever practice, or ride, with your dragon will be when your dragon is older." He informed me. "I'm ready good with Archery though." I said, not seeing the point in doing it if I'm already good at it.

"Ahh, but you see, how we train you is probley way different Arabell. We train you with different ways to make it easier to roll on the ground and shoot an arrow and all that pazaze!" He said happily, doing jazz hands. I giggled.

We arrived at the Great Hall to eat breakfast. "I don't wanna go," I said while standing in front of the door like an Idiot. "It's fine! Trust me, I have someone sitting at the table with you! One person I wouldn't mess with." He reassured me. I nodded and walked in. I walked in quietly so I would he under the radar. I walked over to get my breakfast and then fast walked over to my table. I sighed seeing the kid. Being forced to sit with a girl.

They looked like a football quarterback. They also looked popular. "Hey, Arabell correct?" He asked. I nodded, playing with my food. "Stop playing with your food! It's not like it's poisoned or coal." I heard him chuckle after he said that. I took a small bite, to please him.

I felt his eyes burning into my head. I started to force feed myself the food so he would stop staring at me. When I ate half of my food, I still felt him staring at me. I pushed the food aside, not hungry one but anymore. I stared at him, dead in the eye. "Stop staring at me." I said in a dead serious tone. He just chuckled. "Look, I'm here to make sure you eat and don't get picked on. Mainly eat." He told me, pointing at my food after. I laughed after he said that. "I get nervous when I have someone staring at me while I eat. I feel like I'm being in a compitition and the other person is already done." I informed him.

We talked and got to know each other. We had a bunch of laughs, squeeing and other stuff.

After lunch, he showed me to the Training Grounds. I said my thanks and he left. I waited for like 5 minutes until my 'instructor' came.

"Call me Ash." He said, while shaking hands. "Arabell." I said, with a nod. "I am your instructor but not really. I am your teacher really." He replied. "I don't need a teacher for Archery." I said, like a pro. "Let's see then." He said with a slight chuckle.

He handed me a bow and one arrow. "Shot the arrow at that target." He pointed at rhe target. I nodded and did what he said. Straight dead center! "Wow! Almost better than Tyler!" Ash said. "Ty and me use to practice together." I informed him. "Ah. I see." He nodded after talking.
