The next morning, I was just heading out to the gate to meet Tony when I saw Koa. "Oh, hey Koa. Your early." "Yeah. You're leaving today. I want to see you for as long as I can." "Yeah, me too." So, we walked to the gate together.
Tony finally came by and saw me and Koa. "Oh hey Koa. You got up pretty early." "Yeah I wanted to see Raven and spend a little more time with her before you two leave." "That's a good idea." So we all visited for awhile until other people started showing up.
"Hey everyone!" I said. Both my clans came. I went over to Akela. "Ok Akela. This is the last goodbye. Ok Raven clan. Be good no fighting at least try. When Koa is teaching please be good and don't give him a hard time. I love you all like family. Please stay alive." Then I went over to my Blue Phoenix clan. "Ok you two take care of the clan ok? Ruka be good to your sister and no fighting. Indigo protect your little brother ok?" "All right everyone. I'm going to turn to get used to it a little before I leave. That way you all can see my form." I turned into my dragon form, and everyone saw how cool it looked. I was in my full blue form right now.
"Woah pretty cool!" Said Akela. I nodded since I can understand them just not the other way around. "Hey Raven? Is it ok if I pet you?" I looked at Tony. I nodded. I let him pet my scale skin. I went up and hugged him with my head. "I will miss you too Raven." "OK Raven time to go." Said Tony. I took one last look at everyone then we flew away. Koa and the others watched them until they were out of sight.
As we were flying, I said, "Hey Tony? How long is it to dragon island anyway?" It takes about 2 days to get there. Only dragons can find the island since they are the only ones that can fly there besides birds. Let me know when you get tired. I know its pretty much your first time flying long distance." "Yeah ok."
It was finally lunchtime, we decided to rest. "Lets land in the grass here." Said Tony. I followed him down on the grass. It was a hard landing. "I need to work on those landings too." I said. "Its part of the training Raven." "Yeah I know." So we stopped and ate our lunch and rested a bit. After an hours rest were off again.
"If you can make it, we will rest at night time. Then in the morning we will do the same thing. If we push it, we can be there tomorrow as well." "I want to try." "Ok then. Just let me know when you get tired. We will rest." "Sounds like a plan."
It was sunset, we decided to rest for the night. We flew down to a nice comfy area and ate our dinner visited awhile then went to sleep until morning.
The next morning, it was about 8:00am we had our breakfast and headed out. While we were flying, I said, "Hey Tony. I was thinking. If we could rest for a couple hours like nap then we will make it today. During our lunch break do a 2 hour or so nap." "Yeah we can try that." So we flew off.
"This area is really beautiful." "Yeah it is." "When I first came here I thought the same thing. I was 10 years old when I turned. Things happened and I couldn't' control my emotions and I was sent there." "Wow so young." "Yeah well it happens."
A few hours flew by and it was finally lunch time. We ate are lunch and took our 2 hour nap. I laid down in my dragon form and closed my eyes. I was hoping to dream of Koa. Good things about him and everyone I left."
2 ½ hours later, we woke up and we headed out again. We wanted to see how long we can make it before we were tired again.
We flew pretty far with out stopping. Tony said, "How are you feeling right now Raven?" "I'm fine. That nap really helped." "Good. If we keep going at this pace, we should be there around dinner time." We flew off and surprisingly made it to the island at the time Tony said we would.
"Ok lets go see the elder right now." Said Tony. So we both turned human and headed toward the elders house.
"Hey elder you here?" "Yeah just a moment. Ok I'm coming. Oh hello there Tony. This girl must me Raven right?" "Yes sir. My name is Raven." "Well then lets sit down. I can see Raven here pushed herself a little too hard. She looks exhausted." "Thank you sir." So we sat down and I laid my head back. "Ok Raven. If you remember. I know your exhausted, but you need to know when to wake up at least. You need to wake up at 8:00 at the latest." I was falling asleep so I don't know if I heard what he said. After he said the time she fell asleep. "Tony why don't you take her to her room. The poor girl had a long trip." "Yes sir. I just hope that her roommate gets along with her. Every time someone ends up a roommate they have to transfer." "Yes I know. I have a feeling this one can handle her." So Tony took Raven to her cabin.
Tony knocked on Raven's roommate's door, (Knock Knock) Then her roommate opened the door. "Hey Tony what's up?" "We have a new girl. She traveled 1 day and a half to get here. We could have slept but she pushed on." "I see. I will give her a trial run for a roomie. I will give her a month and see how she is." "Thank you." Tony put her on the bed and tucked her in. "Goodnight Raven." Said Tony. Then he left for his cabin.
The next morning, It was 8:00 in the morning. I woke up and started getting ready for the day. I saw an empty bed where my roommate was supposed to be. "I guess she is at breakfast already I thought." After I did my hair in a pony tail I went out and saw Tony waiting for me. "Hey Tony. You come to show me around here?" "Yeah the elder gave me that job. Ready to go to breakfast?" "Yeah thanks." "Oh and at breakfast, I want to introduce you to your roommate. She has had many roommates, but they all had to be transferred to another room for some reason. I have a feeling you would be the best one. She said she would give you a trial run for a month to see how you are. I'm sure you will pass her standards." "I sure hope so. So what is her name?" "Oh she said she would tell you when she met you in person." "She sounds pretty cool already." "Haha Yeah well you're the only one right now who thinks that." So he guided me to the breakfast room.
This is the line for breakfast. Your roommate is the girl off by herself with a purple tank top." "Ok thanks Tony." "I will be waiting by the door to show you around unless she wants to. Stop by to let me know what you decide ok?" "Alright. Wish me luck." Tony whispered in my ear. "Good luck. Even though you might not need it." "Hehe. Oh Tony. OK well see you later." "Yeah see ya." So I got in line and got my breakfast.
I went over to the table where my roommate was. "Hello my name is Raven." I said while sitting down. "Yes, I know I heard Tony saying your name when he brought you to my room. My name is Nikita. Means unconquered. Like I am. I am unconquered because I haven't found a roommate I care for yet." "Well, I hope I am good enough." "After Tony said you pushed through after he offered you to rest, I was a little interested. I like girls who push themselves to the limit. Let's see just how far you can. Want me to show you around?" "Yeah, thank you. We have to meet tony at the front and let him know though." "Yeah, we will." So, we ate our dinner and got to know each other.
Once we were done, we headed to tell Tony she was going to show me around.
"Hey Tony. I think I am ok now. Nikita is going to show me around." "OK then if you two need anything find me and I will see if I can help." "Thank you Tony. For what you have done for me so far." "Happy to help." So he left and let us be.
"OK so we are done eating now its time for training." "Training this early?" "Yeah I know right? I'd prefer closer to noon or something. Our trainer is a hottie be prepared." So I followed her to the training grounds.
"Hey master Zoro." "Oh hey Nikita. Is this the new Recruit?" I introduced myself. "My name is Raven. Nice to meet you master Zoro." "Likewise. Ok well we will introduce you and give you a sword." "Yes sir."
"Yo! Students! We have a new Recruit!" "Name is Raven. Nice so meet you all." The master gave me a sword and said, "Nikita spar with Raven." "Yes sir!" "That's what I like to hear. Ok You two have fun." So Nikita got her sword and we spared.
We spared for awhile and Nikita said, "Woah your good." "Thanks I trained almost every day since I was 5. "Oh wow really? Strict parents?" "NO not really. Just watched my brother and looked interested." "Wow your brother sounds interesting." "Well he's a normal annoying brother." Then they continued to spar without talking the rest of the time.
Once it was break time, we were both sweating and panting. "Phew. No matter how many times I do it. Training with swords or sparing without is a workout." "Hehe. Yeah I know what you mean." "Raven. How was your first workout." Said Zoro. "It was good. I'm used to it. I have been doing this stuff since I was 5 I watched my brother and grew interested. I sparred with him all the way till I came here." "Well then. Lets see how this training growing up did for you. OK everybody up!" "Uh oh. Your going to spar with the master. Lucky you." "Ok then. Wish me luck." "Good luck. You'll need it."
