Two things I want to clarify for everyone. Carter is Will Treaty's Apprentice. Will is now in his late twenties. June is Carter's Apprentice. Even though Will likes to tag along, it's mostly because at home, there is a lecture on something. Either that or he has to do a mission. And when there's not a lecture there is something else not yet determined by me. Also it's partly because Carters a newbie on training. No I don't own anyone except for June and Carter. And NO I will not make anyone mini Carters. He'd kill me. Sorry for being late, blame Carter, he wouldn't get up out of bed.
Chapter 5
You must die!
Wonder if it would be easier being in Battleschool. June thought. Little did she know, across the fief, Simila was wonder if Rangering would be easier.
"KEEP MOVING" Carter shouted, an arrow burying into the ground where her foot just was.
"Don't hit any bushes!" Will called, hanging upside-down from the starting point in her exercise.
June stumbled slightly over a root as she silently (or at least tried to be) ran from one tree cover to the next. Each time, Carter would detect her and put an arrow were her foot once was. Will had told her Ranger training was hard, but this, was ridicules.
If she would stop thinking about something else and focus, then she might be able to slip by me once! Carter thought, nocking another arrow.
June sighed from behind a tree, then looked up into its branches. She remembered the lessons rules. One: No weapons for apprentice. Two: No climbing. Three: The loser does all the dishes. She shrugged and scrambled up the tree. After all, Carter did say that Rangers must see the unseeable and look past deception.
She quietly scrambled from tree branch to tree branch, observing his movements as he hopped silently and effortlessly from tree to tree. She smiled, wishing she could do something like that when suddenly his head snapped up and towards her position and an arrow immediately following it. A small part of her mind snapped back to a play Simila and Alex did.
'You must die!' Alex yelled, banishing a small toy sword at Simila.
'Never!' Simila shouted then engaged in a play fight.
The voice of her master echoed Alex's as he yelled smiling, "YOU MUST DIE!"
June dropped to the ground as the arrow flew past her head, clipping part of her hair. She hit the ground, rolling quickly behind a tree while Will complained about hurting her. Carter reassured him that she would have dodged it anyway, then nocked another arrow and almost blindly shot it at the tree June made a move for.
"Can we stop this? It's getting redundant." June called, disheartened at her multiple failures.
"No," Carter stated bluntly.
"You suck." June said.
"No, YOU suck." He said, smiling.
"Perv." She said, throwing a rock at him.
"Am not!" He snapped.
"Are to!"
"NO!"
"Yes!"
"NO WAY IN HELL!"
"Says the demon from it."
"You know, if I didn't know better I'd really say you to be attracted to each other. They do say opposites attract. Usually, however, you too are sort of the same, June sleeps late and you sleep late, you both hated training and the only difference is that June puts on a different type of underwear. That and she wears make…no…never mind." Will said.
"SHUT UP, and are you implying that she doesn't wear makeup?" Carter said.
"No, I'm implying that I'm not sure if you don't. You look better in the low-light, but that might be the fact that your face can kill." Will smirked at his insult.
"Carter, your over protective of trivial things and Will, your easily insulted, shorty." June said, somehow teleporting to behind Carter.
Will fell out of his tree at the insult and Carter twitched angrily.
"By the way, what is the deal with your name, MASTER?" June asked.
"That makes me feel like some fat perverted pig." He answered bluntly.
"Master, master, master!" June said, into his ear, causing a vein to pop out and his fist to twitch.
"Tell you what, if you can beat me in ONE training excise, then I'll tell you the deal with my name AND let you call me anything you want." Carter smirked.
"And if I don't?" June inquired.
"You can't eat of two days AND you can NEVER call me master again, got it." Carter said.
"Deal."
One hour later
"This is completely beyond me." June said, staring at the makeshift obstacle course.
"So does that mean you're giving up? That means I win and this is the last event girl." Carter smiled.
"No, I said that this is beyond me on why you would build a crappy little thing like this." June said, deflating Carter's happy bubble.
"Forty-five." Carter said, keeping up his smile.
"What?" June asked.
"Forty-five seconds June, forty-five seconds. I ran this in forty-five seconds flat." He said.
"Easy." June smiled looking at the climbing wall, the swinging logs, and the sprinting areas followed by monkey bars.
"Then let's see it." Will said, appearing out of nowhere.
"Holy shit where did you come from." June said.
"Don't swear it's a-"
"I know bad habit, I can think." June sighed.
Will and Carter exchanged looks and grinned before saying, "You're an apprentice you're not supposed to think!" Then burst out laughing.
"I think more than you do." June commented.
"Run it already." Carter said, a vein popping out of his head.
June shrugged and as Will produced a clock out of nowhere, she sprinted towards the wall.
5.7, she scrambled up the wall and instead of swinging along the monkey bars, she ran along the top of it from bar to bar, 20.4. She fell down, rolling under a swinging log and dodging another,26.7, then finishing up that, she clim6ed up the last wall swiftly, 35.8, as the wall was five feet taller. She jumped down, rolling and took off for the finish line, 42.3. As she crossed the line Carter swore loudly, 44.7.
"God…not gonna say it." He sighed as he walked in a circle.
"Sooo… what's the deal with your name…master?" June said, smiling.
"Um…..If you don't end this chapter right now you author guy I will shoot you!" Carter shouted.
"If you end this right now I'm going to strangle you." June snapped.
How about this. You don't kill me and I don't make a bunch of mini Carters and Simila's and sick em on you June. And Carter…I will sick my dog on you.
"Fair enough." They shrugged.
Hope you enjoy and if anyone was wondering, yes, I would trap June in a room and send in hundreds of mini Carters and Similas just to mess with June. She throws things at me when she's mad and wants the next chapter to start. I blame her for the fact that I fell of a thirteen to fourteen foot roof Friday. She felt bad until I laughed it off and got back up ON the roof.
