The next morning, Emerick woke. Today was a lot different then his normal days. His best friend would be fighting by his side, so would his crush, and so would his newest friend. "This is crazy." thought Emerick. Emerick grabbed his old clothes, worrying he'd rip his given ones, and walked out his room towards the training room. When he go there, Calen and Talamain had already arrived.
"Well, it's about time you arrived!" said Talamain. "Hey, calm down. He and his friends aren't use to getting up early. Plus, you should give him some graditude, he was the first of all of them to get up." said Calen. Emerick raised an eyebrow and smiled at Talamain. Talamain humphed and walked over to the sword rack. "Wait, hold on. Maybe I should go get the others before we start. Don't wonna leave them out on the basics." said Emerick. "You go do that. I'll have a talk with Talamain while you look for them." said Calen. Emerick ran down the hall and headed for Galon's room.
When he got there, he knocked on his door. He didn't answer. Emerick took out his dagger and began picking at the lock. The door creeked open. Emerick jogged over to the bird bath, grabbed a bucket, and got some water. Emerick ran back to Galon's door and tiptoed inside. Emerick walked into his bedroom to find Galon sitting by the window. Emerick quiety set the bucket down. "Hey, why didn't you answer the door?" asked Emerick. Galon looked up at Emerick wiht tears running down his cheeks.
Meanwhile, Alagan and Vollin and the Fleet of Zoron ebgan their long journey around the continent of Cordellea and to the Western Coast. "Nothing willstop us, not even the Royal Fleet." thought Alagan breathing in the cool air.
"Galon, what's wrong?" asked Emerick squating beside Galon. "Well, last night, I was pretty excited about being one of the four chosen warriors, but last night, I started thinking. What if you die, or what if I'm not good enough?" said Galon laying down on the bed. "Well, that's what Talamain and Calen are training for." replied Emerick. "Well, what if I'm not of a true heart, what if I turn up evil, then what. Kill you?" asked Galon sobbing. "I never thought about that." said Emerick. Emerick continued talking to his friend trying to convince him that everything would be ok.
"Where are they?" asked Talamain irritated. "They'll come. I'm sure Emerick can handle it." said Calen. "But-" began Talamain. "They'll come." interupted Calen.
"So, we'll be awarded lots and lots of gold?" asked Gaol making sure he heard right. "Yup, and we'll probably find our fellow villagers." said Emerick. Galon had forgotten all about the village and his family. "Alright, I'll do it." said Galon standing up. "Good, now we need to get Willow and Rosa out of bed. Get your close on and go wake up Willow, I'll go get Rosa." said Emerick running out of the room.
Emerick ran towards Rosa's room with full speed. When he arrived, her door was slightly split open. Emerick peeked inside. "Hello? Rosa, you awake?" called Emerick. "Hold on, I'll nbe right there. I'm getting dressed." called back Rosa from her bedroom. "Alright, we're late for our lessons." said Emerick. The door opened. "Ok, ready." said Rosa. The two began running towards the training room. They both met up with Galon and Willow at the training room door. The four entered.

"You won't beat me." sais Emerick slashing at Galon with a practice stick. "You think about that there." replied Galon blocked the hit using two sticks. "Alright you two, take a break. Willow, your up. Ok, I want you to hit twenty bullseyes in a row." said Calen. "I can do that." replied Willow. "We'll see about that, let's see if you can do it with distractions." said Talamain grinning.

Ugh, that's all for now. I just ate dinner
and I'm pretty full, I'm not in the mood to sit in one place with a full stomache.
I'll let somebody else have some fun with the training.
