PRESTIGE HALL*
Master Duran came out of meditation when King Depp's presence was reported, and he met him waiting at the open room already.
"Your majesty" he said with a slight bow, and King Depp nodded.
"I came to see my princess, but the condition I met her in is not too appealing. She lost a lot of weight and flesh, and her skin got rough too" he said.
"You knew she was coming here to get power trainings when you sent her here from the palace. If you met her in same shape she was when you sent her here, then it only means she's doing nothing" Master Duran replied.
"We should understand ourselves more than this, Duran. I'm asking you to lessen her trainings. She told me it's compulsory to wake at 7 for trainings. Can't she wake at 10 for hers?" King Depp said.
"She's not here for vacation, your majesty" Chief Water said, coming in.
"And if you're not pleased with the trainings here, why don't you take her to another institute? This is not the only supernatural institute in the world. There's Elms Institute at Mount Wei" Chief Feathers said, coming in too.
"You two!" King Depp stood.
"You either take your princess away, or let her stay and continue getting the equal treatment, it's the rule" Master Duran said and went back in.
King Depp looked at the chiefs before leaving the hall in anger.
"How petty, who made that imbecile a king?" Chief Feathers said with a light inhale.
"He's one of the richest kings existing though" Chief Water said, and Feathers gave him a death glare.

MINUTES LATER*
Breakfast has been announced, and the disciples are busy rushing to the cafeteria for their food already, but Samara is nowhere to be found.
Ruthie left the villa and went to the cafeteria, but she's not in, so she rushed out of the cafeteria, bumping into Peony.
"Ruthie! Was looking for you and Sam!" She said.
"I'm here now, but can't find Sam" Ruthie replied.
"She's at the assembly, practicing alone" Raven told them, and they rushed to the assembly.
Truly, Samara is there, practicing the lifting of her sword alone.
Ruthie made to go close, but Peony pulled her back.
"No. She needs this determination, let her have it" she said, and Ruthie nodded as they left together.
Samara placed the sword on the ground this time, then she stood in front of it and closed her eyes, trying to gather her inner energy in her core like Orion said.
She must become one with the sword first if she really wants to tame it, she must be able to communicate with it.
She felt hotness inside her belly, and her brows moved as it got hotter and hotter. She could feel her energy gathering, it was steamy.
Her core almost exploded as she tried to lift the sword with her mind, and surprisingly, it worked!
The sword listened to her and left the ground by itself till it got to midair and stopped.
"Good, now get into my hand" she ordered, and the sword flew to her right hand.
She grabbed it, and automatically, her feet left the ground too, and her eyes widened as she began flying in the air.
The sword was deep gold in her hand as she flew, and she smiled prettily.
"You finally listened to me, whoa, I'm cool. Wish that Vampire Superior of mine could see this" she said.
By now, she's out of the Institute, still flying higher and higher in the morning sky
She looked down to take a peek at the world below, and it happened.
She started falling from the sky, just like the other time at the cliff.
"No! Not again! No!!!!" She screamed as she sank down, but the familiar arm grabbed her again, and she gasped when she came face to face with Aragon.
She quickly held his shirt in the front so tight.
"You're so silly" he said.
"The sword listened to me earlier, dunno why it suddenly stopped" she muttered.
"It's as stubborn as you" he replied
"Am I?" She said, and he smiled as they continued sinking back to the ground.
"Thanks for saving me again, Superior Aragon" she said, knowing holding his shirt tighter

CITY OF SPAIN, HERCULES VILLA*
"I hope they're adjusting well in their new environment, I'm not so worried about Ruthie cos she's good at that" Mrs. Reed said as she stepped out of the house with Mrs. Hercules.
She actually came to have dinner with her.
"Lucky you, my Sam is a troublemaker and since she left, I've dreamt of her multiple times. She was getting tormented by a wizard" Mrs. Hercules said.
"That's not so good" Mrs. Reed faced her when they got to the park.
"No it's all good. Her Granny Elsa says she needs difficulties to push out her power, I believe whoever the wizard is, he's helping without knowing" Mrs. Hercules said.
"Not a bad deal, I gotta go" Mrs. Reed replied, getting in her car.
"Bye" Mrs. Hercules waved as she drove out, then she went back inside, but immediately she got back in, she felt a freaking dark energy everywhere, and she stopped on her tracks.
She heard movements behind the freezer and turned there, but no one is in sight.
The next sound came from the dinning, and she walked there quickly, but no one is there too.
The sound came from the living room again, and she went there slowly.
"Who are you? You know better than to invade the privacy of a witch!" She said, and all the lights in the house went off immediately.
She snapped her fingers, and the lights came back on.
Orion was already sitting on the couch, his dark eyes on her as he rested back on the tiger skin.
"You're the wizard. My daughter's tormentor, I see you in my dreams every time I close my eyes" she said.
"Now I'm here to torment the mother too, I believe in double-tormenting, Bree Hercules" he stood.
"What do you want? How did you know this place? And how did you know my name?" Bree asked, and he rolled up the sleeve of his right hand, revealing the wound.
It spread to every part of it already, and it's bleeding.
"The emotionless sword" Bree muttered, looking at the wound.
"I'm not ready to do the shitty process of dipping my hand into her blood, so tell me any other way" he said.
"No other way, and for a wizard like you, even if you use her blood, you won't get healed. Just cut off the hand and feed it to the vultures" she replied.
"That answer can be dangerous to your existence" Orion replied stonily.
"Your boldness is interesting. You came all the way here to talk down on me despite knowing what I am?" Bree said, and in the next second, Orion was already with her, grabbing her neck with his second hand. He flung her away, and she landed on the rugged floor with a groan.
"What do you think you are? You're just a lowly witch who's unlucky to be a descendant of a whitehead. Got anything else to say? Bree?" Orion said.
Bree stood immediately, opening the freezer with her eyes.
A bottle of water flew out of it, and the cap opened on its own.
The water splashed on Orion's body, and fire began burning on him.
The fire spread to his legs, and Bree inhaled as she watched him burn down till he became ashes on the ground.
"You're incredible, I must say" Orion's voice said behind her, and she turned to see him leaning on the wall.
"You just burnt down one of my seven clones, not a good news" he said with a wicked smile, and when Bree made to cast another spell, he sped to her and grabbed her head.
He snapped her neck into two before dropping her limp body on the ground.
"Rest in hell, Bree" he muttered and started walking out of the house, but immediately he got to the doorstep, he heard movements behind, and he looked back to see Bree standing up already.
She came back from the dead, the cross necklace on her neck glowing powerfully, exactly the type on Samara's neck.
"You've gotta be kidding me" Orion muttered.
ut sitto mihi et omnibusgerum contra malignos spiritusDei Filii et!
Bree casted the three lines spell in Latin, and Orion immediately landed in a locked dungeon in the middle of an inferno.
"I swear it Bree, I'm killing you first if i come out of here, and your daughter's sufferings are just starting" he muttered as the fire scotched his skin.
He tried to teleport, but it's like his powers aren't active in here.
He held the hot metals, gritting his teeth.
