Chapter 11: A Proud Father And A Big Battle
Emily
I walked back onto the ship.
"You were excellent." My father praised.
"Thank you father." I responded.
"You will be a great addition to this family." He said. I nodded and bowed.
"Now let's see, Octaroo is taking you to training I believe." He said looking at Octaroo.
"Ooh-Ah-Ooh of course I will, come on you." He said. I nodded and followed him to the cave.
"HIGH KICK! Exilia! HIGH KICK!" He yelled.
"Sorry." I apologized.
"Just….Just keep your eyes on the red ranger. He won't go easy on you because you were his friend. You're with your family now. They will try and kill you. Just keep your guard up." He said. I nodded. I was training with a shape shifter. It was looking like the red ranger. He had on padding. This however was hand to hand combat. I wasn't allowed to use my abilities with my family. I can only do hand to hand combat. And before you ask: "Emily, Who are you!" I am Exilia. Not Emily.
I dodged a punch from the red ranger. I then struck back. He wasn't able to dodge it. He did a back flip, to get further away from me. I cart wheeled over and continued till I hit him with my legs. I cart wheeled till I would be directly in front of him. I then punched him in the stomach. He retaliated.
"Stop!" Octaroo said.
We stopped fighting and bowed at each other.
"Now, Exilia, you need to work on your hand to hand combat. You need to be able to disable their weapons. Whether they're using them or not. Make sure you don't get injured. Okay so let's practice. Lieoner (Lie-On-Er) grab your sword." Octaroo said. Lieoner grabbed his sword. I did a few kicks and got him to drop hiw sword. I did a cartwheel and put my hand on the sword grip and held on to it for when I am right side up. I then held it at Lieoner.
"Good. I think we are done with training for today." Octaroo said.
I nodded and bowed respectfully.
"Let's head back Exilia. I am sure your father is waiting upon your arrival." He said. We started to head back to the ship.
Jayden
Nothing added up. Emily would never do this. She wouldn't attack. Something seemed off about her. She seemed very confident and happy with fighting us. She didn't even seem hurt by attacking and causing us pain. Something is up with Emily.
"So, Emily has attacked you all?" Ji asked bandaging up Mia.
"Yes Ji. She attacked everyone of us and didn't care. She didn't even hold any emotion." I said.
"We will have to get her back." Kevin said.
"Is she safe? Any burns? Marks?" Ji asked.
"We couldn't see. She didn't seem like she was in pain of any kind. She just wanted to destroy us and get back to Xandred." Mike said.
"Something doesn't add up with Emily. She said 'Save me Jayden…' and walked through the gap. Why would she fight us and then say that?" I asked.
"Clearly she doesn't like it there." Mike said.
"Then why would she go back?" I asked.
"We know Emily. She would never do anything without a reason. She must be under a spell or something and fought it for that minute to say something. Maybe she went back because she trusted you would save her." Mike said.
"I still feel like something is up." I said.
