" I am. " Deanna said with a small smile.

"Alright," Thalia said before hugging her trainer lightly. "I won't let them harm you Dea, I promise," she said.

Deanna nodded. " Thank you so much Thalia. " She said with a smile on her face.

"Don't mention it kiddo," she replied, a small smile on her face as well.

" What would. You like to do? We could watch a movie or we could train a bit. " Deanna suggested a little bit later.

"I wouldn't mind training with you," Thalia said. "And I promise no lightning attacks while we spar," she added quickly.

" Okay." Deanna said with a grin. "We can use one of the training rooms." She added.

"Then lead the way mistress," Thalia said with a teasing smirk and a mocking bow.

Deanna smiled and headed toward the training area.

Thalia followed, started to get the hang of the place and where things were.

"Looks like we're the only ones here. How would you like to begin. I know a little bit on how to defend myself, but not much." Deanna said.

"I can help you with that, if you want," Thalia responded.

" I would like help." Deanna said . She was glad she had decided to become a trainer.

Thalia nodded as she saw how empty the room was at the moment, which was good. "Alright then. I'll admit that I'm not the best at hand to hand combat though," Thalia admitted. "Now then, how about a spar first so I can see where you're at?" she asked, promising to go easy on her.

" Sounds good to me. " Deanna said.

"Alright then, let's go," Thalia said as she got into a fighting stance.

Deanna got in a fighting stance and made the first move. She knew a few moves but not very many.

Thalia blocked a few of the strikes and let some of them hit, just to see how strong she was. 'That's something else we need to work on,' the Demi-god thought to herself as she deflected a punch.

Deanna kept blocking hits and trying to get a hit in. " How did I do? " She asked once they were done.

"There's room for improvement, but that's what I'm here for," Thalia said.

"And I don't mind helping from time to time either," Eragon added from the doorway.

" Could you?" Deanna asked Eragon. She really wanted to improve her skills.

"Of course," Eragon said.

" What do I need the most work on?" Deanna asked.

"You need to work on your stances a bit, as well as how to generate power into your punches and kicks. Although your speed is decent for a beginner," Eragon replied after thinking on it for a bit.

Deanna nodded." Could we work on my stances and how to generate power." She was glad she had decent speed.
