Chapter 23: The snow prince

Chelbell2016:

Ok so this chapter Courtney finds out her dad is alive. Please tell me what you think.

*Keeper of the powers*

Courtney's POV:

Me and Daggeron are training once again. I jump high and go to kick him but he dodges. I then kick him in the back of the leg and he drops to one knee. He stops fighting.

"Courtney, that's not how I taught you," he says and I frown. "You'll do best to follow standard technique."

I shake my head.

"Come on, Daggeron," I say trying to calm him. "Loosen up."

"When terror is attacking, there's no time for your antics," he says making me frown more.

"Look," I say to defend myself. "All we do is train. "Everybody's got to let off some steam sometime."

Daggeron still doesn't look happy.

"But I am your teacher," he reminds me.

"So was sensei Koumon," I inform him and then at his confused look. "He was the sensei at the fire ninja academy. So please listen. I have learned so much from you, but I have my own way of doing things. Sometimes I have to just follow my gut."

Daggeron sighs, clearly not thinking that this is a good idea.

We are suddenly sucked through a portal. Then we are in another dimension.

I look around to see that this whole dimension is covered in snow. On the ground, it's snowing in the air.

"Where are we?" I ask Daggeron.

"In the realm of the snow prince," he tells me. I had heard that name, I couldn't think where. "He is mentor to the original mystic warriors, including your father. I fear he's been watching you train."

I now know where I had heard the name. Ever since my father had been found and then disappeared, I had been reading all the books on him. Hoping to find out if he really is alive. Like my mum and Bowen I really hope he is.

I do hope this guy is not here to tell me to follow protocol. I don't need another lecture.

Suddenly a blue and white being, that I would guess is the snow prince, appears in front of us. Daggeron nudges me and we drop to one knee in front of the mystical prince.

"Great teacher, it's an honur," Daggeron tells him.

"Welcome, Daggeron," he says to my godfather and then he turns to me. "And you are the mystic ranger Athena?"

"Courtney," I say trying not to sound disrespectful.

The snow prince begins to pace a little.

"It has come to my attention that one of you has strayed off of the path of knowledge," he tells us.

I sigh thinking that he means me.

"Don't be hard on her, teacher," he says and I give him a look. I only did what I do best. Follow my gut. "Courtney is very bright, but sometimes a little headstrong."

"No Daggeron, it is you who needs to learn a lesson," he says and I have to bite my lip, in my attempt to stop myself from laughing. "It is my bidding that for this day, you will become a student again. And you Athena.."

"Courtney," I remind him still trying not to laugh. 

"Will be the teacher," he finishes.

I cannot help the smile that crosses my face as he says this.
