"Get up, now!" His voice sounded really mad. I knew if I got caught on military grounds I would be in trouble, but he sounded really mad.
I obediently got up and froze, my back to him. "Go home." I whispered to the two dogs and they totted off, hair bristling and growling furiously at the captain. I stood there, still frozen.
"You got a warning this time. I better not see you again. Now go home. You should treat the military and I with more respect."
I should give more respect to him! I hate the military. I don't even give them respect now! The captain now had his back to me and started to walk away. I picked up the nearest rock, which was a small one, and with out a moments hesitation threw it at the captain's head. It hit him on the top left side of his head and bounced off. He turned around and I could see serious anger in his eyes.
"Yeah, that's right. I threw the rock. I hit you. Come fight me. I am not scared."
"You're no match for me."
"Want to bet?"
"This will be easy." He spun around; flinging fire everywhere and a little fire singed my hair.
"Pyrokinesis!" I started to clap my hands but he blew another flame at me and knocked me over. I caught myself and landed on my hands, just like at the barn. A huge burst of light and another tremor came. "What was that?"
"You're and alchemist! Why didn't you tell me? This fight is going to be more interesting." He clapped his hands and put them to the ground. Another huge burst of light came and out of nowhere a spear appeared in his hands. "You don't have to use a transmutation circle just like me."
"Okay, what in the hell is alchemy and where in the hell did you get that spear!" I was so stunned that I just lay there jaw hanging wide open.
"What are you talking about? Duh, I used alchemy to conger it. Wait, I know what you are doing. You are trying to get out of fighting me by saying you don't know what alchemy is."
"What is ALCHEMY?"
"You seriously don't know what it is do you? Here read this." He threw a book at me with a weird symbol on the front. I caught it and looked at it. When I looked up he wasn't there anymore.
"That was strange." I said as I looked around. I finally let out a long, loud whistle. Loud enough that Goldie could hear it. I just sat there, waiting. After about fifteen minutes Goldie came.
"Good girl." I petted her on the side of her neck and she nudged my hand with her muzzle. Then without me saying or doing anything, she bowed. When Mike and I were little, our father taught Silver and Goldie how to bow. This helped because we were really short and couldn't mount. Now when I want to ride her bareback, she bows for me so I can get on easily. After I mounted I made a clicking sound with my tongue and she started to trot off, but something stopped her.
"What's the matter girl?" She started to rise up on her hind legs when a wolf came out of the timber. I dismounted and walked cautiously toward it. He started to growl, all of his hair standing up, but stopped. Then I saw his tail wag. I bent down and rubbed at the base of his ears. He trotted off and Goldie bowed again.
I put her into a fast trot going to my house. Now I had a new ability. One that the captain knew about. At least he didn't know about my animal ability. Or at least I thought that. I didn't know that when the wolf appeared, the captain was looking right through the window.
