Episode 11

In a large institution, Dayana and Gianna enter; both walk through the place, it is enormous, the decoration is brown and black, there are many rooms and some classrooms. Dayana shows her the facilities, takes her through the different floors and then to speak with the director.

The man smiles at her and tells her that he already knows about her because the king called him and that he is delighted to have her there.

In the place there are also some sorcerer teachers, who teach some magic and how to use gifts…

At the end of the tour, the young woman approaches a large courtyard with Dayana, where many are training.

"Hello boys." Dayana greets, who is wearing a dress similar to Gianna's but pink, a bow in her hair and white ankle boots.

"Good afternoon, Princess Dayana." They respond in unison and she rolls her eyes.

"Dayana, what are you doing here?" Nael asks.

"Hello Nael, I came to bring Gianna to enroll in the academy; now she is one of you.” She says and several turn to look at the sweet girl; her looks and dress don't scream warrior but princess.

"Wha... Hi, Gianna. I'm Nael, a sorcerer, and I treated you yesterday. Don't worry about your wolf; she's sleeping, I put her down so she could recover.” Gianna nods and replies.

"Thank you, Mr. Nael.” He laughs and shakes his head.

"Just Nael, okay, and I don't think this is for you," he said.

"Of course it's not; as you can see, there are no girls, at least not here, but there are in logistics." She points to a young man with brown hair and a well-built body looking at several women who are on one side, but they are only preparing weapons and there are not many.

"But it's forbidden; King Marcos said he supported me,” she said.

"No, it's not forbidden, but this is for male warriors, girls only help; I will talk to my father,” said a very handsome man, with dark hair and a husky, manly voice.

"I don't want to help, I want to train, young prince," she says.

"Look Gianna, these are the grumpy ones I told you about, he's Maximo and he's Marcus, my brothers,” Dayana speaks.

"It's a pleasure, I'm Gianna and I want to study here and learn to be another warrior; the principal has already accepted me.” She spoke firmly.

"Look, girl, don't be offended, but you'd look better as a nurse, or a teacher, or even a model, but not a warrior," Maximo said.

"That's very sexist of you, Prince Maximo,” she said.

"Well, yeah, this is not a game, you risk your life every day, we don't play games and we're not delicate here,” Marcus said.

"I know and it's not right to be classified as weak,” she said annoyed; Jackson's words came to her head; he left her for being weak.

"I didn't say you were weak, just delicate. We don't have time to be soft on you,” Marcus said.

"Test me, if I don't pass I'll leave,” Gianna said firmly.

"Agreed,” said Marcus.

"Well, Gianna, you come prepared tomorrow," said Dayana.

"No... come now,” Marcus says and they all step aside and they move to the center.

"Hey, Marcus, she's not dressed for that, plus she enrolled today; the previous trainings are missing,” Dayana complained.

"Don't worry, Dayana..." said Gianna. Marcus stood in front and said.

"Take a bow and arrow, and shoot the targets, easy right?” He said arrogantly, knowing that from where she stood it was a bit difficult because of the distance.

"Look spread your legs like this and..." One of Marcus and Maximo's friends began to say, but Marcus spoke.

"Leave her alone, she thinks she can do it.” The young man raised his hands in defense and walked away.

Gianna took the bow and got into position, then aimed and after taking a deep breath, she released the arrow along with the air, hitting the middle, then took another and then another arrow and shot them quickly at each target.

Everyone was silent; she bowed to Marcus and he nodded.

"Good, you know how to shoot now, the swords,” Maximo said this time and handed her one and he took the other.

"It's not fair, you're good with the sword.” Dayana complained, but Gianna took the sword. Since she was a little girl, she learned to use it and today was her test.

Marcus got into position as did she, he attacked and she jumped back. There was no armor, just her in that dress that flew every time she moved. Her legs showed more, not what was under the dress.

Maximo attacked again, and their swords clashed; she just backed away; he was really good, she thought. The young woman continued to back away.

"I think, little one, that the nurse's outfit would look great on you,” he said with a smile, and she lunged forward and struck him on the side of the leg with the sword. When he lowered his sword, she raised it to his chest and then to his neck, leaving it inches from his throat.

Maximo's eyes widened and they were pure fire; it wasn't possible, the little girl was very good, he thought.

"Well, now come the knives, huh..." Nael said to ease the tension and Marcus spoke again.

"Yes, come closer here and throw them over there.” He said and began to throw them one after the other, and when he was done there was not a target without a knife.

"So... Is there another test, young prince?” Marcus clenched his jaw.

"You're in, here you train early; the schedules are in the hallway,” Marcus said firmly.

"Thank you, young prince; to get here earlier I will stay in one of the rooms here,” she said.

"No... You already have a place to stay and you will not move from there,” he said, and Maximo turned to the others.

"Keep training, what the hell are you waiting for?”

"Let's go, Gianna, you stayed and wow, you were born for this.” She nodded as Dayana overflowed with joy.

The girls began to walk away, but suddenly Gianna asked Dayana.

"Who is he?" she said, pointing to one side in the sky.

"What is he doing here... Marcus, Maximo!" Dayana shouted.

"What's going on..." They arrived quickly.

"Look..." The vampire smiled and winked at Gianna.

"After him now,” Marcus yelled, and the vampire, seeing that they were after him, left.
