"What are you doing?"

Skye's sudden voice made them jump . "Studying" Mist said .

"Well , you should go to sleep , it's getting late" Skye said turning to leave .

They nodded as she left the cave .

---------------------------------------------------

Glory heard voices . Come on , who could be arguing at this time .

She looked outside her cave . The guardians were standing near the pond and Skye and Callisto seemed to be arguing over something .

She went out from her cave "What's wrong?" . "Your water friend decided to sleep underwater and now we don't know how to wake her" Skye said .

"Mist" Glory said "Has she done this before?" . Skye shook her head "If she had , we would've known how to wake her up"

"Well someone doesn't want to go underwater" Callisto said . She turned back to him "Am I even designed for water?"

Glory refrained from rolling her eyes and was about to dive in the river but Rai grabbed her arm . "What?"

"No" He said "Don't wake her up" . "Why?" . "Because she looks so peaceful . She has never slept like that in her whole life so let's not ruin her peaceful time"

Skye and Callisto were still arguing . "Fine" Skye said , defeated "I'll wake her" . They probably hadn't heard Glory and Rai's conversation .

"No" Rai said . She looked at him with a look that clearly said 'What?' . "What does she look like?" Rai asked .

"A useless piece of shit-Ow" She said rubbing the side of her head where Callisto had poked her . "What does it look like? How is she feeling like?" Rai said .

It seemed like all eternity before Skye finally answered "Peaceful?" . "Exactly" Rai nodded "So let's not ruin her peaceful time" .

-----------------------------------------------------

Mist was still sleeping .

Guess she is feeling peaceful underwater Glory thought going out into the garden . She felt the breeze gently brush past her face . She plucked an apple from the tree and munched on it .

I wonder how Lyna , Coral , Clay and Aaron are doing She sighed I hope Dad is not worried too much . What are you thinking Glory? You idiot! He's sure to be scared out of his lif-

"Glory?" The raven was snapped out of her thoughts when she heard Skye calling her .

"Glory? Where are you?" She yelled even louder . "I'm in the garden" Glory said . At least it would stop all the yelling . Skye came out into the garden .

"Oh sorry . I thought you got captured by Darkon" she said , filling the word 'Darkon' with extra hatred . I wonder why does she get mad whenever we mention Darkon or says his name with hatred

"What is it?" Glory asked . "It's time for battle training" Skye said before walking back inside the cave . Glory followed her . "Mist is gonna go first , wake her up"

Glory was about to dive in but Rai's voice stopped her "No" . "It . Is . Time . For . Training" Skye snapped . "Let them have a day off today" He offered . "No , if they're going to beat Darkon any time soon . They have to train" Skye said .

Rai sighed "Fine" . Glory inhaled and held  her breath as she dove in . She swam over to Mist and shook her . Mist woke up and looked at her with a look that clearly said 'What?' . Glory tried answering but she couldn't . She grabbed Mist's hand and pulled her up to the surface .

Once their heads were out of the water , Mist asked "What?" . "It's time for training" Glory said .

"Training shraining . I'm going back" . "Oh no you don't young lady . Get out here" Skye demanded . Mist huffed before pulling herself out of the river .

Glory got out as Skye and Mist disappeared in the battle cave . "How long does it usually take?" She turned to Rai . He shrugged "Depends . Takes a little longer with those 2"

"Oh" she said .

----------------------------------------------------------

It was Glory's turn .

She slowly walked inside the battle cave . Skye looked at her .

"OK , now today you're going to use all your skills . Except your powers of course" . She mumbled something  else that was unreachable to Glory .

----------------------------------------------------------

All of the kids had done their battle training .

Skye and Rai had gone into their cave . Callisto was reading a book in the study cave .

"Hey Callisto?" Mist said , getting his attention . "Hm?" He looked up from his book .

"Do you know who trained Skye?" Mist asked "Who gave her battle training?" . He shrugged "I don't know , Why?" .

"Because we get hurt like this much" Blaze said spreading his arms "and she doesn't get hurt even this bit" He pinched his fingers .

"You haven't seen her in action , really" Callisto snorted . "Why?" The kids looked at him for explanation .

"But she won't be happy if I tell you" . "Who says that she needs to be happy" Mist said .

Callisto sighed . "Skye is a really fragile perso-" .

"Her and fragile" Mist snorted . He shook his head "No I mean . Behind that strong shield , she's really fragile . Her heart can easily be broken . There are a lot of things that turned her heart into stone" and Callisto left the room .

---------------------------------------------------------------

All 5 of them had been gathered in the main cave .

Skye went and stood in front of them .

"Oh no" Rai said "You're not standing in the front" . "Oh come on" Skye said "He'll be more likely to attack me even if I'm on the back"

"But don't kill yourself" Callisto scolded . "Why would I do that?"

"Because you do that everytime" . The kids who didn't know what the heck they were talking about stayed quiet .

"OK how far is he?" Rai asked . "I don't know" she shrugged "I can feel his presence but not how near he is . This can tell us" . She tapped the bracelet and a holographic screen appeared .

"He's already inside" She said "But not over , he's... underground" .

Suddenly the ground under them cracked and they fell .

Skye got up and dusted herself "Perfect" . Aaaaaaand the hole that they fell from got blocked with more rocks .

"Great" Skye said "Just what we needed" . "You mean we're gonna meet Darkon" Mist said excitedly and ran off into the darkness .

"Mist get back-"

Too late , she had already disappeared . Skye sighed "I'll go get her" . And she disappeared into the darkness as well .

Cole looked at the 2 male guardians "What do we do?" . "I say we wait , it's the best option" Rai said .

After a few minutes , Skye came back holding the back of Mist's crop-top denim jacket . Mist had her arms crossed and she wore A-Not-Very-Pleased expression .

"OK , so now we all are gonna wait" Rai said . "You 7 stay here" Skye said "I'll go to look for him" . Before she could go , Rai grabbed her arm "No you're not going anywhere"

"You're waiting with us" Callisto said . "How about we all go?" She offered .

"YES!"

The kids were the first to answer . Callisto and Rai shrugged "OK" .

They started walking when Skye came to a halt .

Yes finally some action and you're gonna discover more about the guardians .
