*REWRITTEN* UNFORGOTTEN

Weak

"Alright listen up you little turds!" Nightmare exclaimed but then looked at Lukas and smiled. "Not you Lukas, you are an angel and we are thrilled you're here." He added with a grin. I saw Lukas chuckle a little, I could tell he was a bit nervous on our journey and I think that cheered him up a bit.

Nightmare then looked at me "And you too Petra." He added with a wink. Is he..flirting with me? I shook it off and saw him straighten his posture. "But seriously, we have a month to prepare before robotic dragons come in destroy this place." He explained seriously. I saw Axel tilt his head.

"Can't we just throw explosions at them? They'll die easily." He said nonchalantly.

Nightmare face palmed. "Oh sure, PAMA totally wouldn't see right through the explosions and have his robotic reptiles fly away." He replied sarcastically. I held the urge to chuckle as Axel pouted and stayed quiet.

"So what do we do then, captain Nightmare?" I teased. Nightmare had a blunt look "Well, we're gonna train you all for the next two weeks. The old order is gonna help me." He explained. Did they not believe in us?

"Don't take it personally, we're teaching you some skills you'll need during the battle. The. We're gonna have to teach you to...teach?" Gabriel explained and was a bit questioning at the end. Nightmare chuckled a bit before pointing at the giant mothra and the other creatures.

"You guys are gonna need to train them as well. It'll make the process quicker. But we'll need to stay on top form." He commanded. I bit my lip a bit nervously because honestly, I don't wanna end up teaching a mothra that has a big chance of being able to throw me off.

Nightmare then pointed at the order "These guys are gonna teach you. But since Soren is missing I might as well teach one of you." He said with a straight face. "So, Ellegard and Olivia, Magnus go with Axel, Gabriel go with Lukas." He commanded with leadership in his tone. But under all that I could see anxiety building up inside him.

He sighed "Alright, Petra you're coming with me." He added anxiously. Everyone went with their respective teachers. I looked up at Nightmare "You feeling alright?" I asked in concern although I kept a calm look.

Nightmare shrugged "Well. I've been through better." He replied and ushered me to follow him. I was confused and a bit anxious when we stopped in front of a wall. Turns out there was a stone button hidden carefully as Nightmare pressed it and the wall...opened I guess?

In front of us was a huge room. And I mean HUGE! It was covered with gold and iron blocks on the ground and then revealed a giant glass dome up above showing the night sky. I felt...excited!

"Fancy." Was all I could comment.

I could hear Nightmare chuckle "Don't get used to it." He then pushed down a lever causing light to shine around the dome to engulf all the darkness. I'm not the type to usually say this but this looked awesome.

"Are you asking me to slow dance with you or is this all for show?" I teased with a smirk.

Nightmare shrugged "Well, a lady like you would look good in a dress although your personality says otherwise." He replied and smirked back. My eyebrows furrowed when he said that "I'm not always this aggressive." I retorted.

Nightmare smiled "Well I'm gonna need you to show your aggressive side." He said and handed me a stick from the rack. "Since I'm gonna be fair, I'll also use a stick." He added.

I raised a brow "Think I'm not strong enough?" I asked. Nightmare shook his head "This is not about strength here. More like agility. I'm gonna need you to show me how many times go can dodge. And over days we'll progress over weapons." He explained.

I tilted my head, I've never really been the type to dodge much but guess I could say I have a long stamina. "Erm. Alright," I replied awkwardly and held out the stick like a sword.

He held it calmly and didn't seem to have much of a firm grip as I did. "Now charge." He commanded. "What?" I was confused.

"Charge." He commanded again and didn't seem to get frustrated or annoyed at all. Shrugging, I charged towards him with a stick and aimed for his head.

He reacted almost instantly and blocked my attack with his stick not even using much strength. He then used his free hand to grab my wrist and hold me down. "You're focusing too much on strength." He explained "I don't need you to bash my head. Just poke any part of my body. Remember, this is still day one." He added

I felt myself struggling against his grip. He let go of me without warning and I fell onto the ground. "Hey!" I complained "That was rude."

"We don't need manners in the battlefield now do we?" He smirked and held his stick again. I tried again and felt myself aim for his chest which caused the same result as last time.

"I'll give you a tip, when your opponent leaves an opening in any part of its body then aim for it. Bonus points if they leave an opening in a place where they are vulnerable." He explained.

I got a bit frustrated "Why are you telling me this?" I asked "You seem to know a lot."

Nightmare gave me a look "I'm telling you this is because our opponent isn't just some average zombie apocalypse or creepers. They are actual monsters that need to be defeated with strategy." He explained seriously. "And this should help you teach the other creatures. Do not lose your cool when they don't get it." He added.

I stood silent for a moment at his explanation and bit my lip. "Fine." Was all I could say as I lifted my stick up.

"Give me one more chance."
