Seth:Ok, we're gonna train today.
Amelia: But Dad, I've been training.
Seth:Yes, I know. You've been training on how to use your fists and weapons... Today we are going to work on your powers. I am a water manipulator and I can fly, so I will work with you on that and then I will find someone who can train you on hea.....
(Someone interrupts)
"I believe you're looking for me"
Amelia:Grandma!!
Craxis:Yes, young lady, I may not be a Mythica anymore but at least one power must remain with ex-Mythicas until they die, my healing powers decided to cling to me, so I guess I will be training you in that aspect.
Seth:Trust my mother to do that, she is the best healer, that is why.......
Craxis: (interrupts again) I am the chief nurse or doctor or physician. Anyway you want to put it.
Seth: You always take the......
Craxis: (interrupts again) Wind out of your sails. It is your mother you're talking about dooh or is it duoh, how do you say it, Amelia?
Amelia:Grandma, it's duh.
Craxis: Still the same thing.
Seth:Ok, mum, Amelia will be coached by you on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. I will coach her on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. Today being Monday we are going to practice your flight, let's go.
Amelia: Bye, Grandma.
(They exit)
(In training room)
Seth: Alright, Amelia, we will now practice floating first, close your eyes, feel the air around you, then release yourself into the atmosphere. (Seth is already in the air but Amelia is practically jumping instead of floating)
Amelia: It's not working
Seth:Try again
(This time Amelia gets it)
Seth:Good, now we try moving on air, just move like you're swimming but use gentler strokes of your hand.
Amelia:I am doing it! I am doing it!!
Seth: Now let's dash.
Amelia:What's that?
Seth:Moving speedily on air
Amelia:How do I do that
Seth:Violent strokes but not with your hands only your mind
Amelia:Ok
Seth:Race me to the town's fountain and back
Amelia:Alright, ready, set, go
(Amelia dashes but her father stays and gives her a 5 seconds headstart with a huge grin on his face)
Aren't you racing?
Seth:I am giving you a 5 seconds headstart go ahead
Amelia: Ok
(Amelia flies, she sees the fountain in the distance)
Amelia:He thinks he will win.
(Suddenly something zooms past her, goes round the fountain and goes opposite her, Amelia realizes what's happening)
TOO LATE
Amelia: (Gasping for breath) Dad, how did you do that?
Seth:Do that?
Amelia:How did you pass me like wind?
Seth: Don't worry, with practice you'll get better
5 hours later
Seth:I can see you have mastered the art of flying but let me test you one more time. I will shoot an arrow at that dummy (pointing), catch it before it hits the dummy. (Aims and fires)
(Amelia catches it before it hits the dummy)
Good job, I can see we are all exhausted so we finish up on Wednesday and start teaching you how to use your hydrokinesis. You can go now.
Amelia:Thank you, dad.
