again. She stormed forward, ready to punch me.
    Amateur .
    I shifted to her back and pushed her forward. Shocked, she turned and looked at me.
    “That’s cheating!” She was pissed.
    “That’s using your abilities to survive.” I corrected.
    She stormed forward again, her eyes blazing.
    “Kas, just don’t hurt her too bad,” Ben said from my right.
    Her fist flew at me, but I deflected the blow. Lifting my leg, I kicked her backwards and watched as she flew through the air, landing with a hard thud.
    Kid needs to learn to wait for the right moment.
     
    She flew up again, but this time she chose to shift to her Hellhound form. Her eyes flickered briefly between red and yellow.
    Crap! She was pissed.
    Okay, time for a few more lessons. I didn’t shift to hellhound, didn't really need to. She had no formal training, so her hellhound wasn’t trained to perfection like mine. Her fist came at me again. I grabbed her fist in the air and waited for her to do something. She roared and her other fist flew at my face. I ducked my head, her fist barely missing my face.
    “Kasadya, we don’t have all day,” Chax said behind me.
    I nodded and hit her full force. Her huge form landed hard, rendering her unconscious. Stupid girl needed to learn how to fight. I walked over and watched her shift from hellhound to her normal form.
     
    “Somebody wake the kid. We have work to do,” I stated.
    I walked away and saw Ben and Nanini move to assist her. .I reached Chax and waited for another bomb to go off.
    “If you guide her, she might be able to survive that dream you had,” he said, punctuating his words as he turned around and disappeared into the house.
    And wham! My mood dropped so fast that I had to suck in a breath. I turned around and looked at her. She was up at least, shaking her head.
    I really hate him.
     
    I stormed back towards her, the others scattering when they saw me approaching. Raven just looked at me with no fear. I stopped just before her.
    “You have so much to learn, Raven. Stop trying to fight everyone you see and try to learn from them. I can help you. We all can help you,” I said, my hands motioning to the others who were nodding.
    “There is a battle coming and it’s going to be brutal. If you are not ready, you won’t last long.” I tried to explain as I held my hand out to help her get up.
    I could see the impact my words had and the small flash of fear in her eyes. She nodded and took my hand.
    “Okay,” she barely whispered, trying to get up on her feet without any luck. “I'll stop being cocky.”
    Satisfied I pulled her up and help steady her, until her balance returned. I turned to look at Max who was smiling at me.
    “We need to find those princes, and speed things up. Any suggestions?” I asked him, trying to keep the desperation out of my voice.
    “I know, but our options are limited,” he replied.
    “Um Kas, what about the princess?” Nanini asked from behind me.
    I turned to look at her.
    “What do you mean?” I asked confused.
    Nanini looked around, “You know, she tried to warn us about Kali. And she said that she knew what was happening to you and that you could help each other.” She whispered the last part, scared to say it too loudly.
    My mind flashed back to that conversation we had with her highness.
    It might work. Might just be another trap. Chax .
    “Let’s tell Chax and we can let him decide.” I suggested.
    I turned and walked to the house, prepared for another bomb to go off.
    He is not going to like this. Nope, not one bit.

    “Why didn’t you tell me this?!” Chax yelled.
      Yes indeed, the bomb was detonated.
    “I didn’t think it was such a big deal.” I tried to defend myself.
    But even as the words left my mouth, I knew I was lying. I wanted to fix things on my own and all I managed to do was mess everything up.
    “Do you know how dangerous she can be?!” he fumed.
     
    “Chax, come on! It’s over, done. Let’s try and
