Chp 17.
I stood in front of Serenity and Andrew watched his sister. One by one ice shard were aimed at me. In
an instant my right arm flashed out creating a water barrier. I lashed out the same attack and watched
how she would block it. She tried to turn the ice shards away but failed and squeezed her eyes shut and
waited for the impact. I made my hand in a motion that seemed like I caught something, but really I
made them disappear."Why didn't you try to escape! You will DIE if you can't even take on an ice
shard."I yelled at her."sit down."I heard the King say to the queen distantly."Sit down nd watch,
Andrew you're up."I said sighing and taking a deep breath closing my eyes. I felt some thing come at me
and with my mind I changed direction.Ice shard. I opened my eyes to see what Andrew was going to
do. He jumped up and formed a water orb below so he could stand. He created boiling water to
eliminate the shards. He smirked."Wiped that smirk off your face. That was good, but not good
enough."I said.Yes I can be so cruel. But these two need to know what to do in order to survive. His
smirk disappeared quickly. "What do you mean! My son did perfect!"shouted the queen. I turned around
and narrowed my eyes. I didn't care is she was queen of moon, I am a princess but soon to be
queen."He took to long to act. First he could've tried to change the ice shard's course. If that didn't

when he attacked me, I sensed the shard coming and changed it's course. But if we were in battle,
would he know if someone was behind him just about to attack?"I watched as the queen slowly sat
down and nodded, saying I should continue. I turned back towards them. They lined up in front of me
waiting also. "I want Andrew to stay and Serenity to go by your parents."I waited until she was by them
then I put a shield of water around them. I pointed towards it."Destroy it."I said. Andrew unleased a
high amount of ice shards towards it but it did nothing."Try harder." I said knowing he could do it. "Try
hard."I shouted at him, and finally he burst. He sent an ice shard with water swirling around it, and a
spiral of glowing white surrounding it. It collided with the shield and broke it. Of course they were safe, I
removed the water as soon it had cut through and destroyed it. "That's more like it."I said and helped
him up.He had fallen when the shard got release."Now try to keep that in control."I said in a gentle
voice. My hand was on his forearm and he was breathing hard."Try to let some not a whole lot, but
enough to do damage of your life into the shard." I instructed."Life?"he asked he's breathing still
hard."That white glowing thing."I explained to him with rolled eyes. I dropped my arm and crossed the
