Chapter 1

Note: I do not own anything but a cat which seems to be ruining my black shirts.

It was morning Yelena was working on her magic with her new teacher Irys. She was just a beginner and knew quite a lot. After fighting Brazell and leaving her love Valek just as they admitted to each other their feelings. She met some great friends but is now reunited with the old friends. She would hope to see all of her other friends, but because the code of behavior is in affect if she knew she'd be executed.

"You're doing pretty well, for a beginner." Irys complemented.

"Because I've been training with you, it's only my fifth day here and I almost seem like a pro."I looked over to see a crowd of happy people. There were many huts and homes here, but when people looked at me most of the time they glared. Giving me the ugliest of stares I've ever seen. Next thing I knew I heard a familiar voice calling my name.

"Hey Yelena!" A man called out. I turned to see it was Janco and Ari running towards me they game me the biggest bear hug I've ever had.

"Can't breathe…"I choked out. When the let me go I asked." How'd you guys get here won't you get in trouble? You could get executed!"

"Relax; the commander gave most of us a vacation. Valek should be coming soon." Ari explained.

"Really? Valek is coming who else." My eyes lit up hearing his name.

"I think Margg is coming as well." Janco said looking up trying to remember if she was or not.

"I hope she won't that crusty old bag of shit." I said, I wasn't afraid of her anymore and talking about her with out knowing actually felt well.

"That seems a bit to much to say don't you think." Irys said walking towards the group.

"Ah hello Irys." Said Janco. His head moved towards her quickly, either he seemed a bit scared of the fact she's a magician or he likes her. The more reasonable reason seemed he was scared of her.

"So when should Valek arrive Ari." I asked eager to know.

"He should be here soon, but who knows being a master assassin he could be hiding in the trees." He said looking towards the forest beyond them.

"I can't wait to see him again." I said looking at the sky.
