Chapter 7

*Author's P.O.V*

"Okay, I'm new to this just like you guys. I'm not going to help you train with your powers because you all have different abilities. That's something you'll do on your own time. What I will try to help you with is combat." Zayn explains then motions for them to spread out."We're gonna train without weapons first, so partner up, please."

"I want to be the one you practice with!" Harry yells suddenly as he rushes over to him.

"You could get hurt, my king. I need you unscathed." Zayn responds while grabbing his shoulders to stop him.

"You won't hurt me. Now do with me as you must." Harry replies as he pats his cheek.

Zayn sighs, knowing that this is a lost cause. A grin wants to come up on his face seeing Harry smile at him, but he doesn't let it. His hand slowly comes up to the back of his neck, and he grips it gently as he brings his face down to his knee. Of course, he knows that he shouldn't make actual contact. He would never want to anyway. A surprise gasp comes from him as his arm is twisted behind his back from a giggling Harry. He laughs before bending forward quickly and with all his strength. That cause Harry to fly over his shoulder. Just before his body can hit the ground, he is stop midair. A guard slowly puts him to his feet, then focuses back on his partner. Harry looks at Zayn with a smirk, then sticks out his tongue. That playfulness disappears as he sees his friend fall to the ground, not moving.

Harry is pacing back and forth in a room. The door is blocked off by whatever he can find. There is loud banging coming from the other side of the door. There is screaming from outside, which puts him on more edge. Blood leaks down the side of his right arm, but he doesn't focus on that. The light in the room suddenly goes out, and that gets him to stop moving. The banging on the door seems to have stopped as well. Suddenly, the items blocking the door explode and come in his direction. The blast sends him against the wall very hard. The moment he makes an impact, he screams out in pain. His hands shake as he reaches out to grab a wooden plank. There's just so much pain now rushing throughout his body.

"My god, Zayn. I almost started bawling my eyes out." Harry says, helping the black hair male stand to his feet.

"Did anything happen?" Zayn asks as he looks over Harry's body to make sure he isn't crazy.

"You just dropped to the ground. I thought you got hurt." Harry answers while cupping his face."I was so scared."

"I didn't mean to scare you. That's just my final gift. I can see ten seconds into the future, and it causes me to black out." Zayn informs, putting his forehead against his.

"What did you see?" Harry questions, but before Zayn can answer, there is loud shouting coming from the castle.

Everyone turns their head in the direction that the commotion is coming from. They are in a defensive stance just in case it is something dangerous. That stance doesn't last long since a man burst through the back door. His eyes are bloodshot red, and his hair is a complete mess. His clothes make him seem as if he had been attacked by dogs. The moment he spots the young king in the crowd, he makes a beeline for him. His walk looks as if he wants to harm him, so Zayn is quick to stand in front of Harry. He tries to read his mind to see what he wants, but all he gets is anger and sadness about a female. A few of the guards crowd around Harry, too, just in case this man has a power. They highly doubt it, or else he would have been shown it. A servant comes out quickly and bows her head.

"We tried to halt him, my king, but that resulted in a few of your servants being harmed." The female says softly as she folds her hands and stares at the ground.

"If it wasn't for your parents, my little girl would have still been alive. I told her not to attend your uptight party. Those assassins should have killed you as well. You're not fit to be a king." The man spits out with his hands forming fists.

"Leave now, or we'll have to escort you out, sir." Zayn states as one of the guards grabs the man by his forearm.

"Wait. I'm sorry about your daughter passing. I truly am. You and I both lost someone, which is why I'm going to avenge them. You have my word, sir." Harry says, stepping from behind Zayn a little bit.

"Your sorry doesn't bring her back. Killing them won't bring her back. Unless you have the gift to bring a corpse back, I don't want to hear anything from you." The man hisses out while being dragged away.

"You can continue training them. I'm just gonna go inside." Harry says, then starts to head to the door.

"Is everything okay?" Zayn asks as he is quick to catch up to him and grabs his shoulder."Don't let what he said get to your head. He just wanted someone to take his anger out on."

"Yeah, everything is fine. I just have to go do something really quick." Harry replies, then goes inside the castle.

He waves and smiles at the servants that pass him. He goes to his room and sits on the bed. His hands come up to rub at his face. There is so much happening that he honestly can't keep up. He wants to spend quality time with Zayn since the last time he did was a month ago. When his parents were alive, they kept him busy by having him study all the things he needed to know in order to take over the throne. Now, with them gone, he really has to use what he had learned. His parents made running a kingdom look so easy. He knows that it isn't supposed to be, but he really wishes it was. He honestly wants to hand the throne over. If only he had an older brother or sister, who could have taken over. Just as a frown is about to appear on his face, the door opens to reveal Zayn.

"One of the guards volunteered to train them so I can check on you." Zayn explains as he closes the door and then locks it.

"I could really use a hug right now." Harry states while standing up and opening his arms wide.

"Then a hug is what you shall receive, my king." Zayn responds before coming over and hugging him a bit too tightly.

"Alright, that's enough. I don't want you to wrinkle the suit." Harry teases then gasping when he feels something sharp enter his side."Zayn?"

"Our boss would like to keep you as a little trophy." Zayn says before morphing into his true form as Harry collapses to the floor."Sweet dreams, my king."
