Warrior Princess Albana

Chapter III - Training of A Warrior

"Excuse me commander, you might be the 'God of a war' but that doesn't give you the right to humiliate others without knowing them," Amelia was angry because Shayne was treating her as a worthless being. "Oh! Can you hold this weapon then?" Shayne swiftly threw a shiny weapon at her, Amelia tried to catch it but could only hold the end of the weapon. It was too heavy for her and therefore fell down. "See, the worth of a great warrior," he said with a smirk. "Train me and I promise to show you that with practise I'll master these war techniques," Amelia said in a determined tone. "It's not a game as they play on your planet," Shayne confronted. "As long as you can use those techniques in a practical way, I believe it will be useful," the expressions on the face of Rohya changed a little after hearing it. "Whatever, I deny to train someone that is so weak," Shayne was being stubborn. "It is not something you can deny commander Shayne. It has already been decided by a great assembly, therefore I urge you to follow the order and train miss Amelia" Rohya declared. Shayne seemed hesitant but did not say anything against it. Amelia didn't know from where she found the courage but she decided to give her everything to prove herself in training. Rohya and Shayne further instructed her to follow them.

They led her inside the place which was only filled with the weapons. "Select the weapon that would assist you forever. It will be the true companion that will pave your path towards victory," Shayne said. "Choose both with your heart and brain," Rohya instructed. All the weapons began to float with fluorescent light as both of them told her to choose the weapon. She found one sword like weapon without blade but only the base with two handles. She didn't know why but it attracted her. She held the weapon and sword blade came out "excellent choice master," the automated voice came out of the sword. "Remember your mind controls your strength! The weapon gets operated by your mind not by your physical strength. The training will be followed by the decided protocol. There will not be any special treatment just because you were raised on some other planet," Shayne mentioned. "I was not expecting it anyway," Amelia said. She looked at Rohya who turned towards the glass wall, she moved her hands over it, the next moment there appeared the same attire that they were wearing. The attire was standing in the air as someone was wearing it. "You could have put it on directly but the earthly clothes will make you uncomfortable," she said and created a small changing room where both of them entered leaving Shayne excused.

Amelia was instructed by Rohya to remove all her clothes in that changing room but she was shy therefore requested Rohya to stay out. When Amelia removed her clothes, the attire that was standing or floating, flew and magically wore itself on her. She found out it was so comfortable as she wears clothes while doing exercise. Amelia came out with that attire and then Rohya declared, "my duty ends here on, I'll be assisting you to the chambers when you will be retired for the day," Rohya informed. Amelia panicked, she wondered why isn't she feeling hungry? She has to pee or will have to go to the toilet what will she do? She stopped Rohya immediately and asked her, "hey what if I feel hungry or I need to use the washroom," she asked her. "Your highness, your physical form here will consume energy from something different that I'll feed you as the training ends. About the other rituals, you don't have to worry about it here," Rohya replied. Amelia was relieved hearing the answer but as the time passed she wondered that this dream is quite long and too vivid. 'Who cares' she thought as now she was determined to prove herself in training.

This man Shayne now looked more hostile to her rather than being charming. Shayne initially looked like the knight or prince from the stories she read therefore she couldn't help but felt smitten for him. However, now his stingy personality made her think that she should not admire him or fall for him. When she was busy thinking he told her to hold his hand and took her to the place where they trained.

Amelia was back there, where first she found out many young people were fighting with dragon-like huge beasts that made her scared. It was a dark valley-like place from where the dragon was attacking them with fire and they were using their counter attack with weapons. They walked for a while observing it, the next thing she found was a monstrous alien attacking the warriors by disappearing and attacking them from all the side. The next scene was an open sky where some scary looking aliens with wings attacked the trainees and they also fought by flying and diving into the air. Shayn and Amelia were walking without saying a word for a while. They halted at the place where lightning arrows were coming at warriors and they were fighting it with the different weapons they had. Some of them were spinning themselves into the air and striking multiple arrows with their swift strikes. "This will be your first obstacle to conquer," Shayne said. She thought Shayne will show her the moves but instead he ushered her where the arrows were coming from. "Wait! But you haven't even taught me how to use the weapon," she was startled. "We told you that it is your mind that creates the strength," by saying this he opened the path from where those lightened arrows came towards with very swift speed. Amelia thought it was almost at the speed of light. She raised her sword in her hand but the arrows attacked so fast that she closed her eyes. She didn't really understand what happened in that split second!
