The silver haired girl looked around, her ice blue eyes piercing everything with a fierce glare. This was Silver, the third in command to The Lord Of Reality. She was a Minder, a person with amazing abilities beyond anyone's imagination. Darky, (Or known as TLR) was the most powerful of all the Minders. She was The Lord, the one who takes care of every one of her Minders with pride. There were many more Minders, mostly half human, who were just like Silver. But, for now, she hated everyone. Every little thing in sight.

She hissed to herself, walking quickly past crowds of people to get to Darky. When she got there, she dipped her head in respect. "Hello Darky." She lifted her head to make eye contact. "Hello Silver. Up for some more training?" Darky asked, clearly pleased at her apprentice's abilities. Silver has been greatly improving. "Yes Darky. What are we gonna do?" The black haired girl smirked. Looking around, she then looked at a random person and gestured for Silver to look at them. She turned, seeing a boy with light blonde hair and blue eyes. He was a teenager, around Darky's age: 15.

"Hey, doesn't that kinda look like Link?" Silver chuckled, turning her head towards Darky as she nodded. "Yes. Now, read his emotions." Darky declared as Silver did so. In her mind, a streak of blue energy flashed from her chest and into his. Reading his emotions, she felt mostly happy, with a hint of fear and anger. She reported this to Darky, as her mentor smirked. "Correct."

Darky tilted her head to the side, telling Silver to follow. Silver nodded and padded after Darky. Right by The Lord's side, they walked in perfect uniform. They seemed to move like something else was pushing them to walk. Once they got to their destination, Darky stopped. "Here?" Silver asked, looking around. They were in a lush clearing, surrounded by green leaved trees. "Yes. This is where we will be training against some Shadow Beings." Silver nodded, completely understanding. The Shadow Beings were the Minders' enemies. They were made of pure dark energy, and had no mercy for anything. They were called many names, SBs, Slights, and more. There was also a leader, called Candellance. He was Darky's arch enemy.

"Now, I'm going to summon a Slight, alright? You attack it, and make sure you kill it. No mercy." Darky ordered, as Silver glanced at her with an eagerness in her ice blue eyes. "No mercy." Silver repeated, as she closed her eyes, Darky as well. Silver imagined the clearing, full of tall, long grass. She imagined the trees around it as well, as she looked around for the Shadow Being. She spotted it, and chuckled a bit. This is all you give me? Silver thought, directing it into Darky's mind. Yes. Remember, this is only training. I'm not gonna give you something as powerful as Candellance. At least, not yet. Darky replied, as Silver stared at the Slight. It was a male, clearly weak and fragile, even by the looks of him. She could definitely feel his fear. Silver quickly looked around for Darky, and saw her standing a way's from her. Darky gestured with her hand to begin, as the apprentice nodded.

Silver swiftly glided towards the Shadow Being, creating a sword with light energy. The Slight opened his eyes wide, as Silver jabbed her sword into his stomach. The Slight gasped, as Silver lifted her sword gracefully, and with one movement, threw the Slight off of her sword and into a tree nearby. He slid down the tree, just like in a cartoon, as Silver came dashing up to give the final blow. The Slight, regaining consciousness, watched his last seconds of his life as Silver decapitated him with a swing of her sword.

As Silver 's light sword disappeared, Darky started to applaud. Silver turned around to face her mentor, and nodded. She was clearly in a better mood now. He's dead. Silver said to Darky. Good. But, that could've been better. You should've ran faster, that Slight could have woken up in an instant and fought back as you tried to kill him. Silver dipped her head. Sorry. I will try next time. Silver and Darky both opened their eyes and returned back to reality. Darky smiled towards her apprentice, as Silver sat down in the tall grass, her silver hair flowing in the wind. "Let's take a break." Darky said, sitting down as well.

Silver stared into the distance, her blue eyes fixed on the sunset. "It's getting dark...should we head back?" She turned her head towards Darky, but kept her eyes on the sunset. Darky shook her head. "No...we could stay out here for the night if you'd like." Silver looked at her mentor and gave a smirk. "I'm up for the challenge." Silver got up and sighed, wondering where to start. "Want me to go get some wood?" She asked, as Darky got up as well. "Sure. I'll make a fire pit."

As Silver was walking in the forest alone, she started to hum to herself to calm her down. It was about night time and she was slightly starting to get nervous. She passed a tree, and saw a fallen log on the ground ahead of her. "Huh." She said aloud, giving a soft smile and tilting her head towards the fallen tree. "Now how am I gonna get it back to Darky..." She huffed, looking around for anything useful. She then walked up to the log and saw that it had easily breakable branches poking out of its sides. 'Great!' She thought, smiling and breaking off as many branches as she could carry.

When Silver returned, Darky was halfway done with the fire pit. The blue eyed girl was impressed as she watched Darky dig silently. Darky looked up and saw Silver with a big load of wood, and raised her brows. "Wow." She stated, and pointed on the ground beside the pit. "Put them here. Are you going back out to get some more? We'll most likely need fire starters, such as dead leaves. Look around the grass and stuff for them." Silver nodded and did what she was told. After she set the branches down, she walked away from the clearing and came upon the wood-line again.

As Silver found enough leaves to start a fire, she looked up and saw that the sun had already set, with some light on the horizon. She sighed, and walked back to Darky and the finished fire pit, a handful of leaves in her palms. "Great! Now..." Darky said, fumbling in her pocket for her lighter. She grabbed it and flicked it, turning it on as Silver set the leaves down on top of the branches in the fire pit. Darky leaned in close, setting the dried up leaves on fire, getting the branches as well. They both smiled and sat down, as the fire got bigger and bigger. It eventually stopped, as Silver watched the flickering light in awe.
