"Every warrior keeps stats, there's no way you didn't count if you're as good as everyone says." She puts her hand on her hip, lettingknow that my answer wasn't good enough, but there's still no animosity in her tone, just logic.

I'm only fifteen, we had to get special permission just for that. Alpha Reggie allowed it because it was hosted at my pack, otherwise I don't think I would have even been able to participate this year. So my focus was more on watching the people aroundin battle scenarios." "What were your takeaways then?" Her eyes light up when she asks.
"Were you there? I feel like I would remember you even if you fought in your wolf form only." Something about this girl drawsin, kindred spirit maybe. I vaguely hear someone say, 'we lost her.' And a response of 'we lost them both.' But I couldn't be bothered, another warrior who might have been at trials like Wyatt and Lillian, makesfeel closer to hsomehow, that connection still alive even with everything that has happened since then.
"No, not this year, but next, I'll be eighteen soon and there's enough tbetween my birthday and the next trails forto look for my mate and if he's not here, then Dad says I can participate." "That's so exciting. Either way you have something to look forward to." "So, if you're only fifteen, why are you in Elite training? How did you manage that?" I try not to let the darkness that passes through my mind at what Kaley and her cronies did toshow on my face, I take a deep breath and give a half truth. "Alpha Reggie, Warrior Osiston and Warrior Nathaniel decided that since I was ahead in school, that it would be okay forto cand do a modified training and education schedule here. It was an opportunity I couldn't refuse." I left out the part about not being able to refuse because was beaten unconscious, that would open up the floodgate of questions I'm not ready to answer for any of these people.
She looks atfor a second and I think she might try to probe more, but she must see something there that stops her. Instead she asks, “What is something you learned that you didn't already know?" "Really the basics are always crucial and I think they are sometimes overlooked when warriors start to advance. I noticed that my ground work and grappling need to improve. I'm small so I try not to let the fight go to the ground, then my opponent's size can be used against me. No matter how skilled I am, if my arms and or legs are pinned I can't use them to defend myself." She nods her head. "We should workout together. I bet my dad could make that happen." "That would be great! I love working with new people." I almost jumped out of my seat, from excitement.

"I have already worked out with and beat Xander and I'm faster than you, so I think we're all good."'! smile and wink at him and Mina starts to laugh, like actually cackling loud enough for half the room to turn around and look our way. "Oh man, I like you. How long are you here, in the castle I mean?"
"I go back to the training compound today sometime, but really she Alpha Reggie hasn't really said when yet."
She nods her head in thought for a beat and then looks over her shoulder. "Dad, can I take Skylar to the training grounds for a couple hours? I bet she hasn't even seen the whole territory yet.” territory yet." She looks back at me. "We have a few different training grounds since the territory is so big, but the one closest to the castle is probably the best after the Elite Warrior grounds, but us lowly general warriors aren't allowed on those grounds." She smiles as she says it, being tic with her hand on her chest. X
