The Training room was located on the basement level, and they had more weapons than I could dream up. To my right was a wall lined with every weapon imaginable: bows, crossbows, long swords, daggers, shields, battle axes, and ten other types of swords and knives I wanted to get my hands on. My hand was twitching with the urge to grab a blade. I’d never seen so many weapons in one place. To my left, mats lined the walls and floors and at the end of the room were various targets and dummies. What surprised me most was the obstacle course that looked like I might die if I tried to complete it. Spinning wheels, ropes that hung from the ceiling and ladders lined the walls behind it. There was a wall that looked to be twenty feet tall that people were running at, trying to make it to the top. Only a few ropes were attached in case they fell. “Hey Tals? You’ve got a bit of drool on the side of your mouth there,” Lucas chuckled as Celeste smacked him on the chest. “What? She’s practically salivating at the sight in front of her. I know I’m not the only one who can feel her excitement.”

“I am not drooling! I just, I mean… wow.” Turning to look at Declan who stood beside me I asked, “Why do you have such an intense training area? We have a gym back at Jericho’s pack but nothing to this caliber.”

“You never know when you might be attacked, I have just learned to keep my pack prepared should the need to fight another war arise.” Choosing not to think too hard on that I might be fighting a war of my own soon, I walked over to the wall of weapons and grabbed a pair of daggers, they had a wide handle with a diamond shaped blade attached. Flipping them through my fingers, I got a feel for the weapons. I was always more comfortable with daggers and knives than swords, my second weapon of choice would be a bow. I had deadly and precise aim, and I could not wait to sink the blade into the dummy.
