As we were traveling.

Prince James and Devin were at it again.

"I still don't get why your tagging along" Prince James said.

"First because the king instructed me to, and second I'm not leaving Lexi with you" He said.

"Thats princess Lexi to you. Your so disrespectful" Prince James said.

They both glared at each other.

"Look, can you guys just chill out"

"Yeah. All peasants should chill out" Prince James said.

He began to laugh.

"He just had to have the last word" I thought.

After a couple more minutes of walking. 

We stopped near a opened field.

"Okay Lexi, this is where we start our training" Devin said.

"Oh Lord" 

"Don't worry, its not complicated. I will be showing you how to control your Lightning power" He said.

"And I will be teaching you how to use weapons and regular fighting" Prince James said.

"Prince James, If your a Prince why do you know how to battle and fight?" 

"Please princess call me James. And simply because my Father was a warrior before he became King, so Its in my blood" He said.

"Yeah, but he needs more lessons" Devin said.

Oh-no here they go

"Why does words seems to come out of an unimportant person's mouth" James said.

"Why does a arrogant Prince think he can talk to me any kind of way" Devin said.

"The same Prince who kicked your butt during battle training all those years ago" James said.

"Alright enough. The arguing needs to stop"

They both bowed to me and said "Were sorry"

"UGH. Please stop treating me like royalty...Lets just get started"

*****************

After about 2 hours of straight practicing. 

I kind of got the hang of certain spells.

But memorizing them is a bit difficult.

"Okay, thats enough for today" James said.

And the fighting skills, were a bit tough too.

Through out the whole practice, James kept saying sorry evertime he beat me on one on one. And every time Devin would beat me and not say sorry James would get on him about that.

The both of them are totally opposite from each other.

"There's a stable not far from here. We could sleep there" Devin said.

"That sounds-" James completely cut me off

"Eww. A stable is no where for royalty to be sleeping. Maybe its where your kind sleep but the princess deserves a nice and warm bed" He said.

Devin didn't say anything. 

"Princess I know a place not far from here where all of us can have a nice bed. I'm including you for once so be grateful" He said 

"Devin, lets just take his offer" 

I figured if we took James offer than this would prevent arguing.

"Whatever" Devin said as he started leaving.

"Excellent chose princess" James said.

We followed behind Devin.

Tomorrow...will be full of surprises!
