38 Guardian Core, part 1 (1/2)

Snow and her friends decided to go back to training, as Snow was fully healed and her friends are back.

Noctis told Snow she could stay, at leats untill he leaves.

When they arrived, some of the girls were already busy warming up and they turned to look at who came trough the door.

”Looks like its becoming a habit for people to stare.” Yuna said, stopping to look around.

”Just don't mind them, we're here to train, remember.” Snow said, walking past Yuna to go to her usual spot.

”You're girl who danced with the prince right?” one girl came to ask Snow.

Snow turned around to face her, and she looks rather young, not older than 21, Snow thinks.

”Well, it depends, the prince danced with a lot of people last night.”

The girl hummed in response, ”but you were the girl who he danced first with.”

Snow nodded and saw the girl giggling with her friends, before another one said, ”you are so lucky,” and twirled a piece of hair around her finger.

Snow only smiled and saw Cid walking through the doors.

”Okay everyone places please, I'm glad you're back Snow, we need everyone we have left, because as you know, the recent attacks has injured a lot of our members.” Cid said while walking to the front of the room with confidence.

Snow wished she could have that confidence like Cid.

Everyone took their places and began training after Cid finished talking.

Yuna and Snow trained together for a while before Snow went on her own. They practised their throwing, defence, and offence. Also how to stand their ground.

Snow checked the clock to see that and hour has passed, and she is already sweating.

”Bang!”

A load sound could suddenly be heard, making everyone stop with what their doing. Then someone came in running, panting hard from the run.

”Cid, we're..... we're under attack..... again, the demons, they've.... they've gotten through the barrier!”

Cid stood still only for a moment, then she began yelling orders.

”Lia! Go get Athena, tell her to get her troops out there and make sure the civilians are safe.”

”Right.”

”You,-” Cid pointed to the girl who came in to alert Cid of the demons, ”go inform the king and prince if this.”

”The rest of you,-” she turned to us, ”head out, and go take care of those demons!”

Everybody jumped to action, gathering weapons and putting on their armer. One by one they headed out.

Snow was one of the first to get out. She headed for nearest demon, thinking this should be easy as she already knew how to defeat them. As Snow rounded the corner, she was met with a demon, but not the same tipe as before.

This demon was big, at least seven stories long, and he was most definitely not thin. To make matters worse, he was completely made out of stone.

”We got one, big, fat ugly monster on our hands.”

Snow turned around and saw Cinthea stand behind her. She had her crossbow in her hand, ready to shoot when needed.
