chapter 7:
train me

third person
dn: and here we are folks. welcome to our home for the time being.

the graeae then held hands, said some sort of enchantment and the hideaway was then revealed.

it was tall and had this futuristic appeal to it; something out of wakanda, you could say. much different from the hq, which has this "ancient" vibe to it. like ruins or artifacts you would see in a historical museum.

the council members and associates ooh-ed and ahh-ed at the fancy architecture of the new base.

after all the excitement, deino assigned everyone to their quarters. of course, namjoon and hae seul got put together.

deino gave a whole speech about their status and what is expected of them from now on, enyo then lightened the mood with some words of encouragement and pemphredo ended it off with a "don't screw up".
the sisters were indeed the perfect trio.

anyways, after that whole briefing, everyone was allowed to leave to find their quarters.

namjoon and hae seul found their quarter, "the lunar dorm" is what it was called.

it was an architectural beauty. it had two elegant beds with a high ceiling, painted to look like a starry sky.

even better, at nights, the painting would glow, making the moon and the stars on the ceiling look like the originals. maybe even prettier than the originals..

hs: i could look at this all day...

nj: well your not gonna.

hae seul turned to namjoon quite confused.

hs: why not??

namjoon shot her the "are you for real?" look.

nj: do you think we're on vacation?? the broken wands are still out there harriet. and if that doesn't alarm you, they also have your sister.

hae seul looked down at the blue carpeted floor.

she was trying to forget about the whole ain yeon-getting-captured-thing. but the guilt was killing her ever so slowly.

nj: we have a lot of training to do. get changed and meet me outside by the rocks. in approximately ten minutes, that would be nice.

he gave her a final smile before opening the door and exited their room.

hs: damn that smile is driving me insane- wait what the fuck...

hae seul shook her head violently.

she pretended like she never said that, changed into a sports bra and some black leggings to meet namjoon by the rocks.

\°\°\°\°\°\°\°\°\°\°\°\°\°\°\°\°\°\°\

in less than ten minutes, hae seul was outside, at the meeting point.

the chosen training spot for the day was peaceful and quite scenic.

the hideaway was actually on earth on a undisturbed, extremely hidden, high-rise island close to europe. the island had an extremely powerful cloaking spell cast over it; probably 50x stronger than the one cast over the hq. hae seul's great-great grandmother, hae soo was actually the one to cast the cloaking spell, later amplified by no other than grandma hae young.

the water crashing against the rocks was peaceful; which will definitely help with the session namjoon planned out for the day.

speaking of namjoon, he shortly arrived after hae seul.

nj: umm..

hs: what?

nj: is this really how humans dress to training?

hs: it's just a sports bra, joon. don't act like you haven't seen worse on jade

note the annoyance in hae seul's sentence. namjoon just rolled his eyes.

nj: are you actually being bitter about that? how mature, harriet.

hs: so i'm supposed to be fine that my mentor's/friend's ex girlfriend is my mother's murderer?

nj: i don't know how we got from a sports bra to this but awww! you think of me as a friend?!

namjoon was obviously teasing her and hae seul's blood pressure was rising through the roof by the nanosecond.

hs: just start this training session, would ya???!!!???

nj: ok jeez woman.

hae seul pulled out her wand but then namjoon swiftly plucked it out of her hand.

hs: hey! what gives?!

nj: no wands today.

hs: i thought we're here to practise my magic??

nj: my statement still stands.

hs: how do i that without my wand?!

namjoon sighed loudly, almost overdramatically.

nj: you don't listen, do you?? what did your halmeoni say before we entered the underworld??

hs: um.... don't die?

namjoon facepalmed and hit her in the head with her own wand.

hs: the fuck namjoon??!!

nj: try again idiot.

hs: idiot? *pretends to be hurt* im offended, joonie.

nj: i'm serious and don't call me that.

hs: why? because it's reserved for-

nj: CHOI HAE SEUL

hs: jeez ok. *whispers* someone's on their man period today-

nj: i heard that.

hae seul ignored him and thought hard.
it finally clicked in her head.

"remember young one, you hold the power, not the wand."

hs: oh..

nj: yeah. so today we're gonna focus on controlling your powers.

hs: but i can!

nj: really now? so where's your house then?

hs: very funny. i seemed to have my powers quite controlled the other day when i was fighting jade, thank you very much!

nj: i'll believe you when i see it.

hae seul rolled her eyes and namjoon patted on a flat boulder beside where he was standing.

nj: sit, my young padawan.

hs: well, aren't you getting a kick out of this. 🙄

nj: hush and sit on the damn rock would ya??

hs: it's called a boulder but aight.

she then sat down with her legs crossed.

namjoon then blindfolded her with a strip of satin.

hs: this isn't gonna turn into some bdsm-fifty-shades-sort-of-shit, right?

nj: no and ew. keep that in your fantasies of me at night.

hs: you mean my nightmares?

nj: just do it, choi. follow exactly what i say.

hs: okay..

nj: close your eyes, center your breathing. relax your mind and your body. think of balance. think of control. now, lift the rock your sitting on just with your mind. only three feet off the ground. no more, no less.

hs: namjo-

nj: don't question it. concentrate and do your thing.

hae seul followed namjoon's instructions and centered her thoughts. soon enough she was levitating at exactly 3 ft.

nj: good job! ok what do you feel now? balance? peace?

hs: i feel- i feel-

something inside her then struck her. she didn't know what it was. like a dark side of her was coming out to play. it wasn't what she called "demon hae seul" though.

something more powerful than that;
something more evil.

hs: i feel darkness.

nj: what?

hae seul started levitating higher and her irises didn't turn the normal crystal blue. it was black. pitch black.

hs: i feel anger. and a thirst for revenge..

nj: harriet, calm down.

hs: does that jadesilea bitch think she can kill my mother and get away with it!?

the clouds immediately covered the sun and the sky turned purple. lightning soon followed after.

hs: does she think she can just take my sister and run away?!?!?

the waters then began to rise. whatever snapped in hae seul was making a huge tsunami. that was for sure going to wipe out the base.

nj: HAE SEUL STOP!!

hs: i'll show her... i'll show them all!!!

the tsunami was about to reach land.

nj: HARRIET LISTEN TO ME!!

the sound of namjoon's husky voice finally reached hae seul.

nj: DONT LET THE DARKNESS CONSUME YOU!!! FIGHT IT HARRIET!!

hs: joon?

it finally clicked in her head what she was doing.

her eyes turned back their natural hue and she instantly dropped onto the grass beneath her. thankfully, it wasn't the rock.

and as soon as she fell, so did the water. it dropped back into the surrounding sea and sky cleared as well.

the graeae as well as some council members arrived outside to find out what the hell had happened.

ph: namjoon, what the hell happened?! you are supposed to train hae seul to get rid of the enemy!! not get rid of us!!

dn: ease sister!

ey: hae seul ah. do you know what happened?

hs: i-i don't know...

nj: i think that's it for today's training...
