"Adriana? Hey, baby sis, breakfast time.", somebody woke me up but I really didn´t wanted to move.
"Did you cried?" he asked worried when he pulled my face up from my legs.
I hadn´t moved all night long...
"Morning, Micha..." I whispered silently and felt even worse.
"Why did you cry?" he asked softly and tried to comfort me but with only brothers it must have been really difficult to comfort the only sister...
"Don´t know... I... just felt bad. Don´t worry. It´s better now." I promised with a fading smile.
He didn´t believe me.
"Don´t lie to me, Dria." he asked me to and I nodded carefully.
"Sorry..."
He sighed and caressed my back in a comforting way.
"Don´t worry. Gonna be alright.", he said with a warm smile and now I nodded with a honest smile.
"Thanks." "You´re welcome, baby sis."
I sighed deeply but then I jumped on my feet and grinned at my brother.
"Didn´t you just talked about breakfast?" I asked amused and he laughed.
"The magic of calling you is food?" he bantered me and I grinned.
"Maybe. Come on. Don´t want to be such a late riser as Dad is." I chuckled and when I stepped into the sun the light tickled on my skin.
"Morning, Dad." I said and run after Micha who just laughed about me.
"Come on, Daddy´s sugar girl." he teased me and I shook my head.
"When I catch you!" "If you catch me!", he called back and was at the table when I came to his side.
"See, you haven´t had a chance against me." he grinned and I rolled my eyes.
"Just didn´t want to make you cry." I answered arrogant.
"Sure, sugar girl." he laughed and I growled about this name.
Will looked carefully to us but didn´t say a word so I just went to the flames and sacrificed some of the breakfast for Dad.
I chuckled when I looked in the sun.
He would always have my back.
He was a very protective father at all...
"Had a good night, mh? Dreamed about me?" Connor teased me when he sacrificed a Croissant for his Dad and what was what he threw after the Criossant?
"Then my dream would have become a nightmare, sweety." I said with a little chuckle and walked back to my table.
"What has Stoll wanted from you?", Micha asked me curious and I just kept silent.
He shook his head and we both ate then.
After breakfast we went back to our house and I changed my clothes, made my hair and so stuff.
"Don´t put to much effort in your looking, Sis. Will just be wasted, trust me." Micha told me when he came into my room to check after me.
"Don´t worry, I don´t need any Make Up to look great." I chuckled.
Okay, honestly I didn´t believe that but Dad told me so.
And why should he lie to me?
"True. Now come on. Training doesn´t wait for you to start." he said amused and we two walked to the Arena where the training would take place.
I was kind of nervous because I wasn´t a fighter and never had a weapon in my hands.
"Never had a weapon or anything I could use as a weapon in my hands..." I whispered scared and he patted my shoulder.
"Don´t worry. Chiron will be the one teaching you how to use your inborn abilities. He won´t make you do something you never can do, okay?" he told me smiling and I nodded thankful.
He was really a great big brother.
"And Chiron really knows about my abilities? Cause I don´t." "He does. Believe me. This old horse knows everything about demigods and I think he will make you really soon ready for a real training." he said winking at me.
I chuckled again and went straight to the centaur.
"Good morning, Adriana. Good to see you. So Michael told you, you´ll start your training here with me.", he said with a friendly smile and I nodded a little bit excited.
He laughed after looking in my face.
Well... thanks a lot...
"Don´t worry, Adriana. It won´t hurt." he promised amused and I rolled my eyes.
Why should it hurt? It was training, wasn´t it?
"You and your brothers all have a bit of the healing ability your father has, so the ward is mainly covered with your siblings." "Why does this place need a ward, Chiron? I mean isn´t it just training? Nobody needs to get hurt..."I asked insecure and he sighed.
"It´s not a training nobody gets hurt, Adriana. Sometimes there are cuts or other wounds. It´s a preparation for you to fight the monsters." "Like Mrs Most? Äh I mean the Fury?" "Exactly."
I went silent again and dropped my gaze to the ground.
That sounded not good at all...
"You didn´t know?" "I had a feeling like this but no, I hadn´t known." I admitted.
He shook his head in pure disbelief.
Thanks a lot again! It wasn´t my job to explain the world to me! This was the job my parents had to take! But they had been to busy doing whatever!
"What have you been thinking about?" he asked abruptly and I looked up in surprise.
"About my parents and that they should have explained me what was waiting for me and not only caring about their own stuff." I answered honestly.
"What did you felt?" "Why?" I asked skeptically and crossed my arms over my chest.
I really didn´t want to talk about my feelings with an old man being half horse!
"Tell me please." "Not without a reason."
I would never ever tell anybody about my feelings without real trust or a good reason and here wasn´t either.
Chiron looked in the sky and sighed again.
Yeah, I was a real pain in the ass.
"Do you want to learn to handle your abilities?" "Of course!" "Than answer my question.", he said and I rolled my eyes again.
He was a little bit annoying.
"What I felt? Well... I was angry and sad and lonely." I answered honest.
"What the most?" I correct myself: He was a real pain in the ass!
"Anger!"
"That explains why you were glowing like the sun itself.", he said softly and I looked at him like waiting for the hidden camera.
"Glowing? Like the sun? Seriously?" I asked and he nodded.
"You will learn to use it in a fight to confuse and blind your opponents.", he explained and I was really surprised.
"Or I could use it to read by night." I said jokingly and he smiled amused.
"Yes, maybe you could."
He maybe really could help me with the abilities...
But after the day I really was tired.
My hands hurt, my legs... okay, honestly everything hurt!
He wanted to kill me! I swear he wanted to kill me!
But I could concentrate my light on my hands for a short time.
And I could handle bow and arrow just fine.
Well okay that wasn´t really surprising.
My Dad and his twin sister were the best in using bow and arrow.
So it was nothing new for me to be good at this.
But I was surprised when Chiron told me to throw a knife into a target...
I hit it!
I really did!
But that was at least the only thing I really was good in...
Everything else...
Don´t ask, won´t tell...
At least the day showed me to work even stronger for my aims and this aims were to become a demigoddess Dad could be proud of.
In a house full of boys I need to be something worth his attention...
So I would work for it.
Soon I would be as good as Will if not even better than he ever will be.
Dad told me I could become pretty powerful.
So I would become!
I would learn everything I could and nobody would ever say again I wouldn´t be worth the attention Dad pays me.
But for now I loved my bed more than I ever thought I would.
I fell into it and felt like in heaven.
It was so cozy!
I fell asleep less then a second after touching the mattress.
Reviews are welcome and wished ;)
