"This is where you'll be staying before your trip." A small nervous servant gestured. I said my thanks then opened the door. Surprisingly enough, my room didn't look like crap.

I'm starting to sound like Skylar. Ugh. Anyway, the little girl had brown hair and green eyes. She smiled sweetly and asked me"Do you know where you are?" I shook my head. She sighed. "I suppose I'll have to show you then. She jumped off the branch. I looked away, not wanting to see what happened. She jumped in front of me. No, jump isn't the right word, she flew. Yeah, it was as though she were flying. The little girl raised her arms above her head when....

I woke up drenched in sweat. I rose quickly, bumping into the headboard. Holding my hand to a quickly forming bruise, I calm down enough to check the time. Crap. It was practically noon.

Forget training, I was gonna die right now.
