DODGE AND ATTACK
Liam's point of view:
Last night was the first time that all of us had a meal together with Harmony, I wish I could train her again, I could get used to that.
"Liam! Breakfast!" Cari's shouts from outside my door
"Okay! Thank you!" I yawn. "I wonder if Dochi and Kasia found anything" I get up and head to my bathroom.

Harmony's point of view:
After having breakfast, we all went to our classes and waited 5 minutes for Mrs Harvil. When she came in, she told the other girls to go train together with Liam in the mini hall, she wants to put her focus on me because I don't know anything and I need this training. The girls agreed and they've left me alone with Mrs Harvil
"Is Disco here?" She asks
"Yes," I respond
"You know how to summon him, right?" She asks
"Yes,"
"Good, summon him," she instructs and I summon him. He appears in my hand.
"Now it's time for some real guardian training," she says and I know I'm ready for whatever she has prepared for me.
First, she gives me some info on the Menace, each one's powers and its effects, but Zelda's power sounds horrifying, the power to kill any living thing with one strike of her deadly weapon.
We start with some exercises and then we get to the real training.
"For our first training, I'm going to teach you how to dodge different types of physical attacks
"I think that's easy,"
"Yes," she agrees, I always start with the easy stuff. Are you ready?"
"Yeah-I mean yes," I nod
"Move further a little," she orders and I do. "Good, let's begin. Now, If an opponent throws a punch coming directly to your face use the "U" motion"
"What's the "U" motion?"
"The "U" motion is when a punch is coming at you and you dodge it by moving your head to the side and lower your body under the fist then rise from the other side, at this position you can use it as an advantage too and attack your opponent to the ribs or sidekick them, anything that you think will work out," She explains
"Can you uh...demonstrate?"

It's finally the end of the day and everyone has already gone home.
The girls, Disco, heala and I are just sitting in the dining room while the guys are somewhere in the building doing some "guy stuff" as Max said. We are watching videos to learn some training techniques and everything. These videos were taught by Mr Aaron a long time ago when he was a guardian, even now he still makes them. This is the first I'm watching television in this school, in this rectangular-shaped living room. The television actually comes out from inside the wall. When she presses the button on the remote, the wall in the middle of the whole wall moves forward and fades to the sides in the opposite direction, then the TV moves forward. It's 400 inches.
There are about four rows of four-seaters starting from the width of the room and ending at the middle facing the TV. On the one side are four long windows that start from the roof to the ground with window drapes, tied on each side leaving the white lace curtain untied. All the curtains in this building are the same colour.
"So cool, so beautiful."
"Oh come on," Heala says to Disco. These two can't stop arguing.
"I know you guys missed me," Disco says to Heala— Reseda's staff.
"Did not," Heala replies
"Okay guys, we all missed you Disco, now come on, let's watch," Reseda says
"I did not miss him," Heala says
"Should I tell him all the nice things you said about him when he was not here," Reseda says
"Fine! Welcome home Disco," Healah gives in
"That's more like it," Disco proudly says

Liam's point of view:
The guys and I are just sitting here outside by the eating area on some random chair we removed from the tables.
"Oneday, I wish to travel to different galaxies and perhaps get married to a beautiful girl," Max says as he's seated with Clyden opposite me, Tecno and Michael.
"Why do you want to look so far?" Tecno asks
"I don't know... I just want to explore I guess, I feel like there's so much more out there," He explains
"I'm happy for you," I smile looking at my brother as he looks back at me with the same welcoming feeling.
"I hope when you meet her, you will bring her here for us to see," Clyden says
"You guys will make me cry," Michael sips his can drink
"There's barely any tears in your eyes," Clyden says while looking into Michael's eyes.
"Come on let's go inside, maybe the chefs have prepared dinner," Tecno suggests and Clyden's stomach rumbles
"I don't know about dinner, but I know you're hungry like a traud," Michael says and we all laugh
"Whatever, I'm gone." Clyden gets up
"Okay-okay, let's go," I say, we all stand and walk to the main building
"Liam!" Someone calls, we all look to the left.
"Bexy..."
"Wait for me!" She shouts as she models her way to us with her hands behind her back
"Oh no man, we're going inside." Michael looks at me
"It's okay, I can handle it," I assure and they all move on inside as I wait for Bexy.
"Why am I even waiting for her exactly?"
"Thanks," she acknowledges
"No problem. What do you want?"
"Oh come on, we are Alanzan, we are family." She says but I can feel something is not right. Her energy is different.
"Just say what you want, I have to go," I insist
"Can you at least let me in for a drink, please," she says and brings her hand out from the back with a bottle of Meldish, non-alcoholic red wine bottle.
"I've already had too much to drink, I'll pass," I turn to go inside but she holds my hand
"Please Liam, just this once. Something happened and I just need you to listen to me, give me an ear..." She starts sobbing. " Please, just comfort me," she looks up at me with tears sliding down her cheeks, I hug her.

Bexy's point of view:
Hugging Liam is a feeling I want forever, having him would be awarding for me. Having the guy every girl talks about and wishes to have is a privilege. Becoming the future queen of Alanza is my dream. I just want to be a queen, Liam's queen. After today, he's all mine.
