Nicole was pushed out the door and it slammed shut.

She looked around and the hallway was no more, now it was a tidy shop.

The walls were stone, and covered with posters of flying creatures all zooming in and out

of their frames. Some of the walls had small shelves with odd assortments of bottles and

bags.

There were isles lined with a verity of objects, such as blankets, brushes that ranged as small as

your nail to as large as your body, something that looked like toenail clippers and a whole row

of books and such.

The white haired boy looked up from one of the shelves and gave a grin " well...well

it's the rebel, why don't you just go home"

Nicole rolled her eye's " why don't you just shut-up"

He gave aevilsmileas he walked up to her" ohhh...I'm cringing"

Nicole walked by him " bite-me"

Suddenly an arm was around her neck

" look-I don't like you and you don't like me- if you don't run away- I'm gonna be the leader of

this team- but I'm sure your gonna run" a voice in her ear said.

Nicole grabbed his arm and gave a grin " let me tell you something"

She gave a heave and tossed him over her shoulder making him land flat on his back.

Nicole bent down near his face " I'm not going anywhere"

She began to walk away when he sat up.

" as my father has always said...if you have a runt in the litter...you have to get rid of the runt

before it ruins the rest"

He stud up and started running towards Nicole when he felt someone grab the top of his

shoulder.

His head turned to find the other boy.

" that's enough!"

He turned his head back to her to find the other girl.

She was leaning against the back wall with her arms crossed " Vern leave her alone"

He looked back once more and gave a scowl.

Vern shrugged his shoulder and walked away.

The other girl fallowed.

The boy gave a smile " come on lets get out of hear"

Nicole followed him out the door into a clustered street .The houses were bent side ways and odd people roamed the

street.

...what is this place?...

He began to walk down the street between the hustle of the crowds.

Nicole had a hard time trying to keep up with him between his pace and the people.

After about ten minutes and many turns later they stopped at a small tavern and Nicole

finally got to talk to him.

" where are we?" she said looking at the surroundings

" were in Diagon ally- I never got the chance to properly introduce myself,

My name is Segato" he said holding out a cup full of what looked like beer.

Nicole looked at the cup with confusion.

He took a glup from his cup " it's butter beer"

Nicole gave a shrug and took a sip.

" my name Nicole" she said putting her cup down.

"So why was it such a big deal when that orb thing?-what's wrong with drag-"

He rased his hand " those are illegal...ever sense Tomobku was defeated...I gotta

admit I didn't think there was anymore trainers left"

Nicole looked down at her butter beer.

"What did he mean by power?"

" oh, you mean Mr. Hazereto. He's our teacher and an old trainer. Well in Valascer's terms it

means your talent to train the creatures that fall into your category...let me explain...theirs nine

category's water, fire ,dragon earth, mind, weather, Darkness, thunder and wind. Certain

creatures fall into those category. Those creatures have the ability to control those category.

Like, wind. Certain magical birds can control the winds and Valascer's job it to tame that bird"

...this is so wired...all to knew...

He looked down " come on cheer up. Everything will be alright" he looked at the small

wooden clock in the corner " come on we'd better get going..."
