Chapter 10- Day 1 (Antorn)

*Antorn's POV*

"Hello, Antorn. I'm your trainer, Sylas."

Huh. My trainer's actually cool looking. Antorn thought. He studied the slightly older teen in front of him. His trainer, Sylas was wearing a dark hoodie, jeans, and sneakers. Sylas's ears were a sandy brown color, and his bushy tail was the same color. His eyes constantly moved around, as if searching for escape routes, and he had a crafty smile on his face. He also had on a collar that was a black silver color with streaks of blue shot through it.

"Hi, Sylas. Uh, is it rude to ask what animal you are?"

"Hahaha, no. It's quite common for others to ask what animal another hybrid is. I'm a coyote, in fact. Also, you shouldn't hide your ears. That makes it harder for you to hear."

"Oh." Antorn took his hood off, and sound rushed into his ears. He could definitely hear better now that his hood was off. "Wow. I didn't expect it to be so much louder." Even his own voice sounded louder, and he could hear different sounds in his voice, like the low pitches and the high pitches. It was cool. Scratch that, it was REALLY cool.

"That's not the only perk of being a hybrid. We get increased speed, increased senses, and in some cases, such as with birds, they get the ability to fly. We also live much longer than an average human. I've been a hybrid for 24 years, plus I was 15 when I was Chosen, so I'm actually 39 years old, but I look like I'm only about 16, right?"

"So, I'll age slower?"

"Yep! Do you know what year it is?"

"Uh, I'm not supposed to ask...." Antorn said, confused. Why would my trainer ask what year it was?

"Yeah, but I already finished my training, I'm sent on missions, and I know where the location we're in right now is. Also, I actually know what year it is, but since I'm not allowed to share that information with you, you have to figure it out yourself."

"Uh, it should be the year.... 3017 right now?"

"Yep. Now, how old do you think Cortana should be?"

"Uhhhhh, 660 years old plus? Is she still alive?"

"Of course! She only looks about 40-ish right? It's a lie. She's over 700 years old."

"Did she drink the hybrid potion too?"

"Duh. Her hybrid is an elk. She meets the new Chosens after the first week of settlement. After you guys settle in, she meets with both of you, and help you decide things, but I'm not allowed to tell you what they are, so you gotta wait another few days. Sorry!"

"She's an elk? B-but elk are extinct! How did she become an elk?"

"That's a question you should ask her yourself. Be patient, Antorn! By the way, if you want to say hi to your other Chosen, Flyer, I'm going to talk with her trainer right now, so if you want to, you can come with me or you can stay here. So which will it be?"

"I'm going with you. This room is cool, but it's already getting boring."
