Stupid Nightbloods; I knew this was going to end badly but they did not listen to me. Next time I am not following them, because now I have to train with Indra sooner then I was supposed to and she is going to train me a lot harder then she is supposed too. I am sure my father is angry with me for this, I am the oldest and I am supposed to be the roll model for the kids especially the Nightbloods. Though it was all Alexa and Luna's fault that we are in this situation. They are going to cause trouble all the time I can tell.
"Anya, this will not happen again. Not only did you make me seem weak in front of Heda, but you made me seem as if I can not do my job as a general.", Indra said to me before I went into my sleeping chamber.
"I know Indra. I am sorry. I should have known better.", I said to her as she rolled her eyes at me knowing I was not sorry in what I had done.
"Do not lie to me. Tomorrow we will start training prepare your self. Go to sleep you are going to need plenty to survive tomorrow and the rest of the week.", Indra said to me as I entered my room and headed to change into my nightgown for bed.
I have no idea what time is really is but I can tell that the sun is not even up yet, and Indra is already waking me up. This is going to be a very long week; I do not know why I did this to my self. Maybe someday I will learn, but not any time soon. I am having way too much fun.
"Anya, lets go.", Indra said as she entered my room and threw my furs off of me. Does she really need to be so rude, all she had to do was come in and tell me to wake up.
"I am getting up. What time is it anyway?", I said then asked Indra who just looked at me with a smirk on her face. As if to say I am in for a rude awaking.
"It is just about the middle of the night. We are going to need the whole day with what I have planned for you. Now get up and get dressed, pack your hunting gear as well.", Indra said to me before she left my room to leave me to get ready. I looked outside and looked up at the stairs wanting it to be midday already so I could be done with one day of torture. And what do I need my hunting gear for; I have a feeling whatever it is I am not going to like it. This week is going to be hell; Indra is not one to cross especially in front of my father. Once I was done packing my hunting gear I met Indra just outside of the tower.
"Get your horse and meet me by the gates.", Indra said to me as she headed to get her horse as I went to my stable to get my horse as well. I've raised my horse since he was a foal; father found her in the wild and took him back here for me to train him. I did not name him until he survived his first year; it took a while for me to name him though, he has such a strong personality that he needed a warrior's name.
"Anya, you are here early.", the stable boy, Marriot, said to me as I walked into the stable.
"Indra has one hell of a week for me. How is Thryth today?", I asked Marriot as I came closer to my horse as he lowered his head and nudged my shoulder.
"He was a bit cranky, but quickly got over it once I gave him food.", Marriot said to me as I started to saddle Thryth up.
"He is always a bit cranky, he was born that way.", I said with a chuckle to my voice as Thryth snorted at me and showed his teeth. "Knock it off.", I said to him as I finished putting his saddle on his back. "I have to go, thank you Marriot, we will see you later.", I said to Marriot as Thryth and I left the stable.
"Lets go.", Indra said once Thryth and I got to the gates.
"Should I be afraid of what is to happened today?", I asked Indra as we started riding some where.
"You need to be taught a lesson.", Indra said to me as she smirked at me.
"Great so I should be afraid.", I said to Indra as we rode further into the forest.
"Not afraid but prepared for anything.", Indra said to me as we were slowing down. When we got to where Indra wanted us to be we dismounted. "This is where you will be staying for the next week. You will be hunting for your own food, building your own shelter. I will be taking Thryth back with me to Polis. I will come check on you daily. Your father knows about this, he does not like it but you need to know that you have done wrong. If you want to be a second and have a second your self you need to know how to survive.", Indra said as she mounted her horse and tool Thryth's rains and headed back to Polis. This is going to be such a great week, I think I might actually die here.
