Chapter 4 - 4. Learning to fight!

The start of a new semester is always full of the unknown especially for me. I don't have to show up for school till 1pm yay me. Now I can get some work done. I go to work from 6-12 eat lunch then school 1-4 and then more work and bed. This weekend in spending it with the twins because we haven't spent much time together because of my schedule. With school and work I just didn't have time for them other than dinner which I made a point to make and talk with them about there day but that's not enough time with them. I couldn't spend the weekend with them because I was catching up on work. Getting time off for surgeries was a pain in the butt. I explained to them they would have to give me the time off because they were schedule months inadvance and I was not wasting people's time because of some stupid school which I didn't even need. Inhind sight I did need the school but still I was not rearranging my life anymore than I already had for them. It was their turn to give me a break because I was not like the other kids and they needed to stop treating me like I was. I had businesses and kids to take care of yes I was 16 almost 17 and most people are still figuring out what they want to be but that's not me. It was a crazy month but I got through it.

Saturday I let the kids sleep in because I needed a good sleep. I woke up at 10am made breakfast and woke them up. Then I took them to a playground for supernaturals so they can meet some kids around their age. The playground is much like a normal one the only difference being some of the things are harder like the monkey bars are farther apart. The rock wall is harder and the animals are wolf's and dragons instead of ducks and chipmunks. It was the little things that you wouldn't think about being different that were. There was all ages at the playground even kids my age playing basketball and soccer. Some running or doing yoga. It was a cool place to be for everyone till we showed up then it all went quiet for a few minutes. Some of the kids from school came over and started to talk with me. I introduced them to Luke and Lilly saying they are my younger twin siblings. That started another round of looks and silence. I hope someone tells me what's going on soon because I'm started to get annoyed. After the award silence they started taking again like it never happened.

The twins are running around playing on everything having a great time till someone tries to take them. I flip out and go all dragon and kill them. Everyone is running away. Not sure if I killed them all or if some where hiding to report what happened and I don't care. I tell everyone good bye and grab the twins and we go home as fast as we can. I get them home and calmed down. We watch movies till they fall asleep. I look up the supernatural website to find better bodyguards well not better just supernatural ones. My bodyguards are amazing the best but not supernatural or so I thought. After looking up bodyguards I find the same company I'm using. I give them a call and request some supernatural bodyguards. That was a long conversation in which I found out I already had some because of mema and pop asked for them. Would have been nice to know but they thought I already knew. Owell, now I do so the next time we go out I will have them so the twins don't get almost kidnaped. Sunday we stay home and talk. I learned that the twins are in 2nd grade soon to be in 3rd just have to finish some tests. They say school is boring because they are just doing tests and reading.

Monday I drop them off at school leave some bodyguards like aways then I go to work, do meeting, fill out paperwork and assign tasks for my managers. Then at 1 I'm in school. This semester we have power fight class, history 102, and fighting shifted. Powers fight class was boring. Same as last semester only fighting eachother instead of targets. In history I learned why everyone bowed and was quit when I took the twins to the playground. It's because we are lost royalty who would have known. I guess mema and pop knew I wonder if mom and dad knew? They should have I heard them all talking about telling me something but they stopped because I stepped on a squeaky board. Then they told me to go back to bed I guess they decided to wait till I was older then never got the chance. I wonder if it's written down anywhere. I'll have to look this weekend in the attic. Did you know that the golden dragon is royalty? I didn't till today. That explains why they say I'm a lost royal. Fighting shifted was interesting wish they had done this last semester so I could have fought better against the kidnappers. You never know what will help or happen. Is anyone shocked that I excel at fighting no just me I guess lol. I already had a black belt and military training so the only fighting I needed to learn was in power and shifted.

Fighting shifted is more about knowing your enemies moves and anticipating what they will do. Add a little magic and you got it. My dragon is big. Took up almost half the field that we were fighting in. No one wanted to fight me. So the instructor had to. He did not hold back even though it was the fist time for me to ever fight shifted. What an ass, but I get it. How else an I suppose to learn if I feel no danger to my life? The instructor is also a dragon. He's a black dragon with red spikes going down to a spike ball tail. It looked more like a mace head than a tail.

First he showed me some basic moves that all dragons know. Frist dragon stance is all about balance. For balance is key to finding center of being which will increase speed, finesse, and power. Second dragon thrashing is a long standing tradition amongst all dragon kind, as its movements and style fit both the dedication and tenacity of more disciplined fighters, as well as the erratic and improvisational style of free spirited warriors. This stance allows you to move quickly and gracefully from one move to another. Third is swift claw. Which is like it's name suggests a way to quickly strick your enemy's vitals. Fourth is flash kick. Which is a move involving using your legs to kick away any enemy. Fifth and last is the all famous tail slap. I'm not explaining that one because the name says it all. There are more moves and all of them can be used in human form too.

We both get into dragon stance. It's a lot harder than it looks. He makes it look so easy. By this point everyone else is in pairs fighting. We are off on the side. Everyone has had someone to teach them since they turned 13. For them this class is more about showing what they can do and improving on it. As for me it's about teaching me everything I need to know to survive in this world. Tomorrow I'm going to get a personal trainer from the government. I gusse it's an affront to the royals and government that I don't know how to fight shifted. Whatever I'm still learning about this and them. I mean can you belive it's only been 3 months give me a break. The teacher is patient with me as he goes through the 5 basic moves, correcting me as we go. By the end of class I have them mostly down. Which impressed the teacher. He said it take people months to get the moves right. We end on that note. He ends the class and tells everyone to go home and shower because we all stink. Like I said he's an ass.

My days fall into a pattern and before I know it a month has gone by. My days start by dropping the twins off at school. Then work and school, dinner, shower, and bed repeat. The only difference is my last class of the day was moved to one on one with Leo. Leo is a sturn, no nonsense guy with black hair and blue eyes. He has a scar on his left cheek. Otherwise he looks like the god of war. Hot and dangerous! I have officially learned everything Leo could teach me. Yay go me! Tomorrow I get to rejoin the class and fight with everyone hope they take it easy on me.
