Ivy's POV

"Ivy, you have to get up." A cool voice said, cutting through my sleep

"Nnnn, ten more minutes, too comfy." I said and burrowed deeper into the blankets How did I end up in a bed anyway? I wondered. I heard a chuckle and the blankets were suddenly blown off me by an extremely cold wind. "HOLY- WHAT DID YOU DO THAT FOR?!" I yelled as I tried to get the blankets back from Jack.

"I told you it was time to get up!" Jack said jokingly as he kept the blankets just out of my reach, I refused to get out of the bed. Just then, North along with the others burst through the door.

"Uh, hi. What is everyone doing here?" I asked, getting off the bed.

"We were just checking on you guys to see what was taking so long." North answered "Now, how about we get you into something new?"

"I'll help!" Tooth said flying into the room along with her mini fairies

This isn't going to end well I thought as she pulled out an extremely large suitcase.

"Bu-but, what's wrong with what I'm wearing?" I asked looking down at my dress.

"Well, we're going to be training you and we don't want it to get ruined right?" Jack asked standing next to me.

"I guess you're right-"

"Yes!" Tooth interrupted, "I have tons of ideas for you to try! Everyone out!" And she shoved the other guardians out the door with the help of her minis. When they were out the door, Tooth looked back to me. I started backing up when I saw a certain gleam in her eye, I couldn't tell what it was but I did not like it.

"Uhhh, Tooth? Are you...feeling...alright?"I said as her mini fairies started surrounding me.

"Get her!" Tooth yelled and lunged for me along with her minis.

"Hey! Get of me! There is NO way that I am wearing that!... Defiantly not! You can barely tell that that's a article of clothing!" I yelled as they tried to get me into some new clothes. This continued of about an hour or so until I finally had on an outfit that I liked. I wore a red shirt with flames going up the sides with an unzipped black leather jacket, the pants that I had on were white boot cut jeans with snowflakes on the rim. I refused to wear shoes throughout the whole thing until Tooth brought out a pair of black high heeled boots that weren't too high, just at a comfortable height. When I looked at a mirror I barely recognized myself. "Wow." I said

"Glad you like it. Now let's go show the others!" Said Tooth, she caught my wrist and pulled me along. After many twists and turns down the hall, we finally ended up in a giant room with a huge globe in the middle of it, I saw the others gathered around and talking. I tried to stay behind, but Tooth and her minis- who were surprisingly strong- manged to push me into the room and out in the open.

"You look nice." said Jack

"Thanks. You should have seen what Tooth wanted me to wear before she chose this outfit." I shuddered at the thought

"Now that we are all here, we shall get started with the training. First things first, your weapon." North said and lead me and the others to an artillery room, over flowing with weapons of all shapes and sizes. "Go on, pick which ever catches your eye." I turned to the group, gave them a quick smile and darted off into the mess. I looked at the swords and axes first, each had it's own requirement and I couldn't lift any of them. When I almost hit Sandy with an axe I gave up with them and tried looking for a lighter weapon that could easily do some damage without having so much trouble just to lift it up.

"Found a weapon yet?" said Jack floating right above me while I was looking at the spears. I jumped at hearing him and almost impaled his head with the tip of the spear.

"No, I can't find something that seems right. And you really shouldn't sneak up on someone when they have something sharp in their hands." I said as I put the spear down and continued to look around. I kept looking around and soon enough, I found myself faced with a large variety of bows. Somehow, I knew that I was in the right place. I picked up a medium-sized bow that looked like it was carved straight out of a tree, it even had little ridges that an oak tree would have. I knew that I had picked the perfect weapon for me because it felt right when I held it. I stared at it for a little while longer then starting running with a huge grin on my face until I finally saw North and the others.

"North, Jack, Sandy, Tooth, Bunny!" I yelled, I stopped right in front of them and showed them what I picked out. "Is this alright?"

"If you think that it's the right one. Now, in order to channel your powers through your weapon you must concentrate. You know how you can make copies of other people through your ice and fire?" I nodded, wondering why this has anything to do what that. "You must do the same here, but it has to settle inside your weapon, like how your fire has to settle inside one of your ice sculptures in order for them to move."

"Okay. Here goes nothing." I held the bow with both my hands and closed my eyes. I knew that the Guardians were watching me. Which made everything more nerve racking, but I ignored their stares and focused on what North told me to do. I felt fire start to lick at my arm and ice forming on my other arm. I willed them towards the bow that was in my hands and they slowly started making their way down my arms and on to the bow. Pretty soon, I felt my fire and ice completely engulf the bow. It was a lot harder for my fire and ice to settle inside the bow, but I kept my focus and soon felt it settle inside the bow.

After it completely settled, I felt as if the bow was another part of my body... and then I fell face first towards the floor, but luckily the Guardians were still there so they caught me before I came into contact with the floor.

"Easy there Ivy, you okay?" Jack asked, I nodded then slowly stood back on my own two feet

"I'm fine, didn't think that it would be that hard though... what's next on the list?" They were surprised at my response and how quickly I recovered after using up almost all of my strength.

"Well, I guess the next step would be for you to practice using your bow." Tooth replied, North started ushering me out of the room and down the hall with everyone else following. We stopped at a door that was at least ten times taller than me, but it still had Christmas themes on it. "This is where you will learn to fight, with and with out your powers." said Tooth. Bunny opened the door and on the other side was a very complex training area. There were targets, some were moving at a break neck pace while other targets weren't moving but were very far away from the others. There was a clear area in the middle of the room, most likely for hand-to-hand combat, there were even more things in the room but I didn't have time to get a good look at them as I was rushed into the room.

But I forced whoever was pushing me to stop as soon as we got close to a mini lake and could feel myself getting weaker. "Don't tell me that you have a bad reputation with water now do you mate?" Bunny asked as he hopped to my side.

"Well, I guess that you could say that me and water? Not a good combination. I mean, I'm not scared of it or anything, but it just makes me weaker."

"I guess that we're just going to have to change that now aren't we?"

Let the games begin.
