Kel practiced day and night. Punches, kicks and rolls. ''Someday I'll show
them all just how fragile girls are.' She thought furiously. The Shang
Panther looked at her, full of pride. This girl had been denied a chance of
a lifetime, but over the past six years, she had done well; very well. She
had strength, spirit, and determination. He wondered, 'What rank will she
be in when she takes the Ordeal of Shang in the season of the sun?'
In just two more months, Kel would take the challenges to determine her as a Shang. Immortals and mythical beasts were the best, the Dragon being the best of the best; the champion of champions. Kel strived to be the Dragon, practicing against greater Shangs, and always improving. She sometimes found herself wondering if she was doing this because she really did want to be a Shang for the rest of her life or she just wanted to throw it back in Wyldon's face when she became Dragon. She decided it was both.
Kel mentally scolded herself for this. 'You haven't gotten Dragon rank yet! You might not even get that rank. It's highly possible! Just because I beat the Griffin twice In a small practice doesn't mean anything. She was probably just having a bad day or going easy on me!'
Still Kel hoped for Dragon rank. Not a day passed when she didn't want it. Though she knew it could never happen. She wasn't good enough. The Panther had taught her everything he knew, but it wasn't good enough. He wasn't even an immortal. Kel would never be the Dragon.
(A/N Sorry to all of you who thought she would be the Dragon. But I couldn't just make her be Dragon all of the sudden. Maybe, just maybe, She will get Phoenix. Tell me what you want in a review. Hint, hint.)
Okay I know this was a boring chapter, the next one will be better. I'm typing it as I speak. Bye! R/R
