Later that morning, Serra went up to her room to ask her master if Xanatos could help her train. He was really angry with her.
"Master, um can I ask you something?" asked Serra as she played with her fingers.
"What is it?" asked Cin angrily.
"Xanatos suggested that he could help me get caught up in my training," said Serra.
Cin shook his head.
"No, I don't think so because you will get too distracted," said Cin.
"No I won't I promise we will train really hard and we won't fool around," said Serra.
Finally he agreed, but he still wasn't sure about it, he knew that she would get too distracted right away.
"Oh thank you so much master, I promise I will train," said Serra. She was so happy that she hugged her master.
"I'm going to tell Xani right now," said Serra excitedly.
"Who's Xani?" asked Cin.
"Xanatos," Serra laughed. She left the room to go find Xanatos, she found him in the rec room in the temple. He was with Siri, Obi-wan and Bant.
"Hey Serra," said Bant excitedly.
"Hey," said Serra.
Serra and Bant talked a bit and then Xanatos joined them.
"Hey am I allowed to help you?" asked Xanatos.
"Yep it's all settled, we'd better go start now before my master gets mad at me again," said Serra. Serra and her friends laughed.
"Ok, we will see you guys later," said Bant and Siri at the same time.
Serra and Xanatos left the rec room.
It had been three hours since Serra and Xanatos had been training. They were also having fun. They practiced their lightsaber training together; Xanatos was also getting good at it too.
"Wow, you are really getting better," said Xanatos.
"Thanks you too," said Serra as she laughed. They still practiced they never wanted to stop until they were getting really good.
Later on the afternoon her master came to see how she was doing, he was getting really impressed with her skills, he was also impressed with Xanatos's skills too.
"Hey master, how am I doing?" asked Serra.
"A lot better, you are improving quickly I see your friend Xanatos is being a great help," said Cin.
"Thank you so much for helping her," he whispered to Xanatos. Cin watched the two of them training really hard, but they were also laughing and having fun, sometimes they would be silly and tease each other for fun. Once they finished, they sat down to take a break and Cin left the room. They were so tired, they couldn't get up anymore. Just then Xanatos looked at her.
"What?" asked Serra.
"Have you ever heard anyone tell you how beautiful you are?" asked Xanatos kindly.
Serra giggled a little
"Not really, no one really notices me very much, well accept for my friends," said Serra.
"You are," said Xanatos. Serra and Xanatos laughed again, and they were fooling around again. They were slapping each other for fun and they were teasing each other again, they were even flirting a little bit.
"Well, I better go for supper," said Serra. "Thank you for helping me train," she said.
"No problem, and before you go can I ask you something?" asked Xanatos.
"Shoot," said Serra as she laughed again.
"Would you like to go out for dinner with me tomorrow night at 7:00?" asked Xanatos in a soft voice. Serra laughed and hugged him.
"I'm there," said Serra she was so happy, she was going to go on her first date, she'd better not tell the council. She left the room to go for supper. Before she went up, she went to tell her friends about her date.
"Oh my goodness, that is so cool that he asked you," said Bant.
"Uh I know, he is so hot, I have never had anyone like that ask me to go out with him," Serra smiled.
"Tomorrow I am going to help you pick out a nice outfit for him and do your hair so you look really pretty for tomorrow," said Siri.
Serra laughed.
"Well, I'd better go for supper," said Serra. "See ya later," she said as she left for supper. She did not want to tell her master that Xanatos asked her out or she would be in big trouble so she kept it to herself.
"Hey Master, how was I today with my training?" asked Serra politely.
"You were very good Serra, tomorrow I want you and Xanatos to continue," said Cin.
"Aren't I caught up yet?" asked Serra.
"You still have much to learn, my young padawan," said Cin. Serra grunted. She could not wait to break free, but she was still happy that she was going out with Xanatos in the evening. She knew she was going to have a fun time with Xanatos. Serra was daydreaming while she was eating. She couldn't get her mind off of him. He was so cute that she just wanted to go and see him after supper.
"Serra, are you ok?" asked Cin.
"I'm fine master," said Serra as she giggled a little bit. "I'm not hungry anymore, I'm going to go and see my friends since I didn't get to see them today," said Serra.
"I guess you can have a break," said Cin. "But tomorrow you are training some more with Xanatos," he said
"Please stop mentioning that name, it's making me dizzy," she thought.
Serra left to go meet with her friends. Her friends were swimming at the pool outside of the temple.
"Hey Serra, come in the pool," said Bant.
"Yeah, the water is great," Siri laughed.
"Ok," said Serra as she quickly put her bathing suit on. She jumped in the pool. She was having a great time with her friends.
"Wow, it's so nice to have a break isn't it," said Xanatos who was in the pool with them.
"Uh, I know I felt like I was going to die," said Serra said nicely.
Serra and her friends almost swam until mid-night.
"Well, I'd better go I'm getting really tired," said Serra.
"Ok, see you tomorrow," said Xanatos.
Serra left to go to bed. She could not sleep because she was to busy thinking about Xanatos. She was a bit nervous but she was excited.
