Lupus' POV

The Zodiacs and I finally arrived to my place. I had to make sure Draco left before I brought them over, so he stayed at his place today.

I could see in my rearview mirror that Leo's mouth dropped. Virgo slapped his cheek hard.

"Mouth closed," she says, smirking while Leo rubbed his cheek.

They were funny. All of them to me. It wasn't like a joke funny, but they do make me laugh. They're just all so... adorable. To Virgo smacking Leo to Sagittarius smacking both Leo's and Aries' butts. Now that I think of it, Leo really does get hit a lot.

"This is my place," I say, pulling up and parking. I turn to them while putting an arm on the empty passenger seat.

"We're training at your place?" Libra asks, confused.

I nod my head. "Yep. In my backyard, I have everything there needed for your training. There'll even be people to help you guys. Fire Signs," I say, looking at the three of them, "you guys know your power better, correct? Don't complain if your coach is too hard on you."

They all didn't look the slightest scared. They just all looked excited. Well, Aries and Sag. Leo was just smiling at me while I was talking the whole time.

"And Pisces," I say, turning to him, "you can help Scorpio and Cancer. These coaches don't necessarily have the same abilities as you all do, but they will help. I promise you they will."

Everyone nodded their head. I found that so cute how they're all like a little family. I loved that for them. I smiled without realizing. "Okay, so let's go!" I say, opening my door first.

The rest open their doors, and I could already hear yelling.

"Leo, mind waiting until I get out first?" Virgo asks in a frustrated tone.

Leo was grunting as he was getting out of my truck now. "Hold on, bossy!"

"I'm not bossy!" Virgo snapped back.

"Bullshit," Aries chuckled.

"Ow, Cap! You stepped on my fucking foot!" Aqua yells.

"Sorry," he says with a cheeky grin. He was out of the truck now followed with Aqua. She hit his arm pretty hard. He acted like it didn't hurt, but I knew it did.

I just couldn't help but laugh. I know they're all in their early twenties, but it's like they were children. That was something that made it all so cute.

"What's so funny?" Scorpio asks.

"You guys," I say, shaking my head and settling a smile across my face.

He rolled his eyes at me. Everybody was out the truck now. Leo struggled standing up as Sag tried tripping him, but he managed to keep his balance and smile at me.

I gesture a hand to inside of my house. Or mansion. There were many rooms in my house. I did have the biggest house out of all the land anyway.

"Shall we?" I ask, waiting for everyone to go inside.

"After you," Leo says, taking a bow for me.

I chuckled. "Thanks, Leo, but I know my way inside my own home," I say.

"Oh, right! Then in that case, I'll go first!" he says, walking pass everyone.

Virgo rolled her eyes as she went after him. I'm guessing she tends to do that a lot.

Everyone else went inside. They looked up and sideways and everywhere. I could tell they were amused.

"Woah, now, princess, I didn't know you had a fucking castle," Libra says, looking at everything to the walls to the ceilings to the floors.

Cap nudged her arm almost causing her to fall. "Castle is an understatement," he says, smirking down at her.

She rolled her eyes at him then smiled back.

"Speaking of princess," Leo says, walking up to me, "do you have a prince?" He grabbed my hand now which I found to be pretty weird yet adorable.

"Sorry," Virgo says, grabbing Leo's wrist and pulling him away from me. "He always flirts with things that have boobs and legs," she explains.

I chuckled.

I already knew I wasn't going to tell them about Draco yet. Maybe ever. What Draco and I have isn't that serious, but it sure did make both of us feel something. We both had to get over things sometimes. That was the way we did it.

"We're going to start the training right now," I say, reminding myself what they're all here for.

"Right," Aqua says. "So we can send Ophiuchus back to hell."

I nodded my head. I led everyone to the way where my backyard was. There stood four of my best men and women.

For the Fire Signs, their trainer was Acella. She had blonde hair, pulled into a ponytail and blue eyes. Her hair was naturally straight and she was about as tall as Libra. She was the toughest out of all the trainers.

The Earth Signs had Cygnus. He was super tall with light brown hair and green eyes. He was physically the strongest and mentally the sassiest. He also couldn't procrastinate for anything.

The Air Signs had Corvus. Corvus was a fine looking man with brown hair. His eyes were about as blue as Neptune. He was one of the fun ones, but will get his job done on time if he does procrastinate. He was always good with time management if he messed around for a bit.

The Water Signs had Esther. Esther had long, jet black hair that went down to her bottom. She had it tied up today, and her skin was like chocolate. Her eyes were just as brown as her skin, and she was probably the sweetest.

The Zodiacs were now meeting their coaches. I noticed that the Gemini and Aquarius instantly fell in love with Corvus. Gemini literally couldn't blink the whole time he was talking. Aquarius was squinting her eyes at him, watching him speak as she licked her lips. Libra just stood there actually listening.

I can see Scorpio become infatuated with Esther. She was speaking the whole time, and he spoke about a couple of times along with Pisces and Cancer. I found it hilarious.

Cygnus allowed Virgo to speak the whole time. I noticed she introduced Cap and Taurus to him along with herself. Cygnus was patient while she was speaking.

On the Fire Sign group, let's just say that Acella didn't play around. Sure, she was as energetic as the three, but boy, was she tough. She was already yelling at Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius for playing around. Already. They couldn't help but laugh which caused Acella to yell louder.

Right now, I was with the Water Signs. Esther was just beginning their training.

"Okay, guys, first we'll start on abilities. Would anybody like to share on how they first found out you were alike?" she asks.

Pisces volunteered first. "Well, I mean, I almost drowned until I found out I can actually breath underwater," he says.

Scorpio laughed which caused Pisces to roll his eyes.

"Scorpio," Esther says, "how about you?"

Scorpio thought for a while, maybe stalling. "I'd rather not say," he says.

"Is it because it was embarassing? Maybe even sad? Esther asked.

Scorpio slowly nodded. "Yeah," he quickly said.

Esther nodded her head. "Okay, then," she says. "Cancer, how about you?"

"I didn't know I was a Water Element in so long, but I did heal someone... with my hands," she says.

Esther nodded. "Did you mean to heal them?" she asks.

Cancer shook her head. "I don't even know. But I did care for them. Deeply," she says. "I even healed Scorpio last night," she says, gesturing to Scorpio now.

Esther smiled and looked at everybody. "Okay, this is great. This is all great. Now I want all of you to have that feeling again. Close your eyes. Think deeply into that moment."

Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces all had their eyes closed now. I can hear Pisces let out a breath of maybe exhaustion.

"Think back to the moment. Did you love someone?" she asks, walking to Cancer.

She was walking to Scorpio now. "Were you sad? Embarassed?"

Esther was on her way to Pisces now. "Or were you just scared. Scared of failing," she was saying.

"I want you all to think to that time when it first happened. How it made you feel. Channel that to your power and believe it'll work," she instructed.

Pisces could easily make the water with his hands. He still had his eyes closed, making it float in the air beautifully.

Esther smiled. "Good job, Pisces," she says to him as he opened his eyes again. He was already great at his power I heard. I'm pretty sure Esther was going to be perfect for the three of them.

Soon, Cancer was breathing in and out through her mouth. She didn't breathe too heavily. She tried to balance her emotion. Just a short while after, she created a little water sheild. She probably didn't realize she was doing it since she kept applying her effort.

"Well done, Cancer," I say.

Cancer opened her eyes to see what was in front of her. She smiled at it and turned to the two boys on her left. She noticed Scorpio was still struggling.

"Now, Cancer, try making something else. See if you can do it with your eyes open," Esther instructed.

Cancer nodded and used both of her hands to make the sheild bigger. Pisces smirked at her which caused her to shift her eyes another direction and giggle.

"Holy shit," Sagittarius says, looking at the big water sheild.

"Focus!" Acella says, smacking her aside her head.

Sagittarius looked like she was about to pounce on her but remained to obey instead.

Back to the Water Signs, Scorpio was still struggling on getting to activate his power.

"C'mon, you got this, Scorpio," I say to him.

"Yeah," Esther says. "Breathe calmly. Think back to that time it first happened. Your power first appeared during a dramatic time in your life, so just think about that."

Scorpio grunted under his breath. Esther went behind him and started whispering in his ear. I could see that made Cancer pretty upset.

"Let it all out. You just have to try," Esther whispered to him.

Scorpio shivvered at the sound of her voice due to the fact he was obviously infatuated with her. Little droplets were starting to float with his hands now. Just tiny little drops in mid air. He still couldn't push himself further.

"You're almost there, Scorpio," Pisces says, starting to make different animal shapes with his water in mid air.

Scorpio squinted his eyes harder, trying a bit too hard to concetrate.

"Just relax, Scorpio," Esther says. "And think."

Before Scorpio could completely do what he needed to do, a little earthquake shook my backyard. Cancer lost concentration on her sheild and so did Pisces with his animals. The entire backyard nearly flooded.

I heard Acella whistle to the Fire Signs. "Evaporate it, hurry!" she yelled.

Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius didn't hesitate on setting fire to all the water. Everybody right now were nearly wet except for Acella and the Fire Signs who were on the other side of my big backyard.

As soon as Pisces landed out the water with Scorpio and Cancer, he brought the water back up so that the Earth and Air Signs wouldn't burn to death due to the Fire Signs evaporating the water with their fire. Everyone else was still wet, but the remaining excess water was being pulled into the air.

He managed to keep it up until the water was completely evaporated from the fire. Fire and Water cancelled each other out like a math problem. I was actually proud of them.

Taurus stood up along with Virgo, Cap, and Cygnus.

"Sorry!" he shouts.

I wasn't even mad. I was glad that he was practicing his power with the whole super strength thing. I just sent him a huge big thumbs up.

I can see the Air Signs stand up too. Aqua was coughing out water from her mouth along with Libra. Corvus went over to see what was wrong with Gemini who was lying on the ground.

"Sorry," Scorpio mumbles. "I don't know to do it."

"No, no, Scorpio, it's okay," Esther says, pulling him into a hug. "You probably just can't control your emotions right now, and that's alright."

Scorpio just gave a weak smile and quickly frowned, probably not wanting to seem like such a softie.

That was how Esther taught. Her whole motive was getting into their deepest feelings. That's what helped her channel into being her. She was a great teacher, and I knew I could trust her with teaching the Water signs.

°°°

I made my way to the Air Signs now who were just a couple yards away from the Water Signs. Gemini was still lying on the floor, wet and cold.

Corvus over her. I saw Aquarius' eyes beamed as she saw the good looking man soaking wet.

"Gemini? Gemini, are you okay?" he asks her.

I run over there now. "Is Gemini alright?"

Corvus shrugged. "I-I don't know. Should we call a hospital? Um, CPR?" he suggested.

Aquarius looked jealous when he suggested on giving Gemini CPR. Libra laughed as she walked closer to Gemini who was laying on the ground.

"She's fine," Libra says, kicking Gemini's arm.

Gemini shot up. "Hey! What was that for?!" she shouts.

Corvus looked relieved to know that his student was alright. Libra shot Gemini an evil smirk as Corvus helped her up.

"Thanks a lot, Libra," Gem mumbles.

Libra chuckled, staring straight ahead as she was waiting for Corvus to start talking.

"Okay," Corvus says. "Thank God you're all okay. You guys remember where we were at, right?"

Libra was the only one who nodded her head. I could tell she was the only one actually paying attention to him unlike Aquarius and Gemini who were checking out his soaked body.

"Okay, now just breathe," Corvus says, dramatically breathing with them. "Close your eyes and breathe."

The three Air Signs all were closing their eyes and breathing slowly.

"What are you making them do?" I ask.

"They're gonna try to form a cloud," he tells me.

I nodded and smiled at him. He was probably the perfect teacher too. Well, for Libra at least. But Aquarius and Gemini seemed to focus too. Just at times.

"To form a plump, beeeeautiful white cloud, you have to set all your worries away, okay? So just relax, and breathe," he instructed.

He went closer to each of them to find everybody doing what he was telling them to do. Then he got over to Aquarius who was on the far left side of Gemini and Libra.

He put his hands on Aquarius' arms. "Just relax, Aqua. Yep, just like that," he says, helping to motivate her.

Gemini peeked with one eye to look what was happening. Aquarius looked at her back and winked  and smirked between blows at her which caused Gemini to growl.

Suddenly, Libra was the first to make a cloud. It was super tiny at first, but it was a great start.

Corvus left Aquarius to encourage Libra into making her cloud bigger.

Aquarius was the second to make a cloud, but her cloud was bigger than Libra's. Libra's soon grew wider to be about half the size of Aqua's now.

Corvus went over to Gemini now. "Okay, Gemini, remember to just relax," he says. "Think of something that makes you calm. Peaceful. Go back to a time you just felt like you were flying," he says.

Gemini was relaxing herself now. She was one of the most energetic signs, so it took a lot for her to be completely calm. When she was finally calm, she formed a cloud too. It was just as plump and white as Libra's and Aquarius'.

Corvus clapped his hands together which caused Gemini to open her eyes now. "And that's how it's done!" he says with a smile.

"Dude, that's so cool!" Aquarius says.

"I know! Who would've thought Gemini could do it!"

"Fuck off, Libra," Gemini says, rolling her eyes and chuckling.

Libra chuckled too.

"Okay, so can we, like, stop now?" Aqua asks. "My arms are getting tired."

Corvus shrugged. "Sure, we can take a break," he says.

"Well, I'll be monitoring the Earth Signs," I tell them.

They all waved me bye as I did the same to them.

°°°

When I made it to the Earth Signs, they were already dirty. Each one of them.

"Drop again," Cygnus tells everyone.

Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn all dropped and did push ups. Capricorn was probably the best, then Virgo, then Taurus.

"Keep it up, Bull. The lady's do better than you," Cygnus says with a smirk.

Virgo stopped midway. "Just because I'm a girl doesn't mean anything," she says, continuing to push herself back up and down again.

Cygnus rolled his eyes at her. Then he walked over to Capricorn who was easily doing push ups. Cygnus placed his foot on Cap's back, pushing him to go down and up with a weight.

Capricorn grunted as he was trying to get back up, but he managed to do so. I was proud of him.

Cygnus nodded. "I'm impressed," he tells Cap.

Taurus fell down on the ground that was now mud due to Cancer's sheild from earlier. "Cap," he panted. "H-how... are you so... good at this?" he says with his eyes closed now.

Capricorn was breathing in and out, trying to focus on the weight on his back. "Just because... I hate sports... doesn't mean that I... I don't exercise," he says inbetween pants.

Cygnus gets off of Cap's back and walks over to Virgo who was struggling with more push ups.

"You can stop now," he tells Virgo.

Virgo immediately flops down on the mud under her, getting her face and hair muddy. She was panting heavily.

Then Cygnus went over to Taurus. "Get up," he tells him.

Taurus opened his eyes again. "But how come Virgo gets to stop?" he asks.

"She's a female. I'm a gentleman," he proudly says.

Virgo gets up again. "I can do just as many push ups as a guy!" she shouts at him.

Cygnus rose an eyebrow. "Really? Then you can get back up and do more," he suggested.

Virgo flopped back down in the mud. "Nevermind, I'm good," she says.

Cygnus looks back at Taurus again. "Now get up," he tells him.

Taurus sighed and got back up as he was doing push ups now. I went over to Cygnus.

"Try not to go too hard on the bull," I say, feeling guilty of Taurus. "He'll get the hang of it as we keep training."

Cygnus nodded and obeyed me. "Okay, you can drop now, Bull," he tells him.

Taurus tried doing one more push up but ended up flopping onto the mud with Virgo. He was panting heavily.

Cygnus went over to Cap now who was still taking it like a champ. He was only pushing up and down slower because his arms couldn't take anymore, but he didn't want to get yelled at.

"You can drop too, Goat," Cygnus insisted.

Capricorn didn't flop down in the mud like the other two Earth Signs. Instead, he immediately stood on both feet, ready for more intructions from his trainer.

Cygnus smirked. "I think I like this one," he says to me. I smiled back.

"Okay, now Maiden and Buller, I want both of you to stand up too. It's time we start this all over again," he intructed.

Taurus and Virgo both stood up. Taurus let out a soft groan, and Virgo gave him a sad look. They looked so tired and muddy. All of them were muddy. Capricorn was the least muddiest given to the fact that he didn't fall into the mud.

"Now how do you guys feel?" Cygnus asks.

"Like shit," Taurus says.

"My arms hurt," Virgo complained.

"I'm exhausted," Capricorn sighed, catching his breath.

Cygnus smiled. "Great! Now I want you guys to try to start another earthquake," he says.

"Won't that just cause more destruction?" Virgo asks.

Cygnus got closer to her. "Do you want to know your power or not, princess?" he asks her.

That caused Virgo to just grit her teeth and clench her jaw. I'm guessing she's not a fan of petty nicknames. Cygnus moved away from her, but she still had a fierce look in her eyes.

"Now think of something that makes you strong. Something that makes you feel like you're untouchable," Cygnus says.

"Virgo's untouchable by guys," Taurus joked, smirking at Virgo.

Virgo side eyed him and rolled her eyes.

"Taurus, you did it before," I said. "You did amazing too."

Taurus gives me a smile which I loved. I could tell my compliment made him seem so proud. That's all I ever wanted for them. To feel accomplished.

"Let's see you try it again, Taurus. Give the ground a shake," Cygnus says, gesturing to below him.

Taurus closed his eyes as he concentrated. I never knew what Cygnus' motive was, but if it made Taurus shake the ground, whatever he was doing was right.

Soon, the ground was shaking a little. I noticed the other groups felt like they were falling. Taurus immediately stopped as he felt it too.

Cygnus smiled and clapped. "Now that's what I'm talking about," he says.

Taurus had a cheeky grin as he looked at Virgo who smiled at him too.

"Hey, idiots!" a harsh female's voice called out. We all looked to our right to see Acella with the Fire Signs.

"Mind not shaking the ground while we're playing with fire over here?" she yells.

Cygnus rolled his eyes at the blonde woman. "And they call me the bossy one," he mumbles.

"What was that?" Acella yelled back.

"I said you got it!" he lied.

Acella smirked at him and turned back to her group. Leo was checking her out, so she smacked his head which obviously hurt him.

Seriously, he gets smacked all the time. Is this why he acts brain damaged?

Cygnus rolls his eyes again. I can tell he was scared of Acella even though he didn't want to show it.

"Since the tiny little fiesty woman wants you guys to stop, we're gonna stop," he says.

"Thank God," Virgo sighs.

"With earthquakes," he finishes. "Don't think earthquakes are the only things you can do, princess," he tells her.

Virgo almost lost it. "Okay! Fine! Let's just get this over with," she says.

Cygnus tapped his chin as he was thinking. "Rocks!" he says. He goes behind me to do something.

"Now I want you guys to bring rocks up," he says, running back with three hand sized rocks.

"Can't Air Signs levitate shit?" Cap asks.

"Yeah, but you guys can too. With earthly objects of course," Cygnus answers.

"Okay. Me first," Virgo says. She puts both of her hands out. "Tell me what to do."

Cygnus went over to her to correct her hands. "First, I want you to relax," he tells her.

Virgo nodded as she was doing what was told.

"Now feel something that makes you feel unstoppable. Like you're the strongest person you know. Mentally and emotionally," Cygnus was saying.

Capricorn and Taurus decided to start at the same time she was while Cygnus was instructing her.

Just for a second, Virgo's rock moved. It quickly stopped as she was trying to do it with her eyes open.

"You're almost there, Maiden," Cygnus says.

He looks over at Capricorn's rock, and his was already shaking. Struggling to properly float up.

Taurus' rock still didn't budge. He already looked exhausted.

Capricorn's rock finally started to float up along with tiny pieces of grass with it.

Cygnus smiled. "Nice job, Goat," he tells him.

Capricorn just remained to keep the rock up along with the tiny pieces of grass. It was like he was already so good. He really applied himself, and I was proud of him.

Virgo's rock was shaking now, still on the ground. She tried the best she could to go ahead and get it over with.

"You're almost doing it, Virgo," I cheered her on.

She remained to focus on her rock and the words that Cygnus was saying. Capricorn dropped his rock to the ground which caused a small quake. Luckily, it wasn't strong enough for Acella to complain.

"C'mon, just be confident with it. Like nothing will hurt you," Cygnus was saying, anxious for Virgo to keep it up.

After some time, Virgo's rock was starting to float. The float was really shaky and scared, but it floated. As soon as the rock reached midair, I noticed she got scared, so the rock roughly dropped back on the group, causing it to split down in the middle.

Virgo closed her eyes. "Shit," she mumbled under her breath.

Cap put a hand on her shoulder, "It's alright, Virgin," he tells her with a smile. She just growled at him and looked back at her split rock.

I noticed Taurus stopped trying to float the rock too.

"It's a start, Maiden. Just feel confident next time. Don't be scared," Cygnus told Virgo. She just nodded.

Then Cygnus went up to Taurus who had both hands on his muddy knees, panting and looking at the rock. Cygnus clicked his tounge.

"Are you going to try, Bull?" he asks Taurus, trying not to yell at him.

Taurus scoffed. "I just did push ups and shook the ground. Cut me some slack," he panted.

Cygnus took a deep breath in as he was trying not to yell at Taurus again. Then he looked at me with a look of annoyance. I shrugged my shoulders. Taurus can try a next time.

Cygnus faced Taurus again. "Okay, well I really am proud of you guys," he says to them. "Now drop again."

"What? Can we take a break or something? My arms are gonna fall off," Virgo complained.

Capricorn just groaned as he started to do push ups too.

Cygnus shrugged. "Ten, and you can take a break," he tells them.

"Ten? That's like... fifty," Taurus says.

"No. It's like, ten," Cygnus corrected. "Now drop."

Taurus and Virgo get back on the ground to do ten more push ups. I went over to the Fire Signs to see how it was going over there.

°°°

"I said focus, Lion!" Acella says, smacking Leo aside his head.

"Watch the hair, you crazy bitch!"

Acella attempted to hit him again, causing him to flinch and squeal like a scared pig. His hair was already a mess. Maybe due to all the smacking.

"Aries, Leo, Sagittarius. Run another lap," she instructed.

"What? But he was the one who stopped! That doesn't mean that we should keep running!" Aries complained.

"Fine then. Two laps for you for complaining. Leo and Sagittarius, run another lap."

Aries' eyes lit up with fire as Acella said that. He mumbled something under his breath as he started running.

"Run faster! You guys are running like wimps! C'mon, I thought you guys were the energetic ones," Acella yells to them then chuckles.

Aries, Leo, and Sagittarius were all running now. I knew Acella was going to help the Fire Signs get through their power. They're pretty great at their power themselves, so Acella could help them know when and how to use it.

Leo and Sagittarius finished running a lap. Aries ran another.

Sagittarius was panting as she had her hands on her knees. Leo attempted to lean on her, but she pushed him off, causing him to fall on the ground. He just laid there. Acella let him.

"Hurry up, Ram! Run like your life depends on it!" Acella yelled.

Aries was running faster and finally made it with the other two Fire Signs. Leo quickly got back up as Aries was in the same stance as Sagittarius.

Acella smiled. "Good," she says. "Ready to play with more fire?"

"I thought that's what we were fucking here for," Sagittarius pants.

"Can I have some water?" Leo asks.

Acella squint her eyes at him. "If you're thirsty, you can lick the beads of sweat on your forehead, Lion. Water is a treat, and you don't get treats until you do what needs to be done. Got it?"

The three of them immediately nod their heads. Leo looked like he was about to pass out from dehydration. Or maybe he was being dramatic. I couldn't tell.

"Stand straight," she tells everyone.

They quickly stand straight in sync like soldiers. Acella was walking in front of each of them.

"Now let's play, little fireflies. I want all of you to close your eyes," she says.

Everyone waited for further instructions.

She stopped walking in front of Leo to see their open eyes. "Now!" she yells.

Everybody quickly shut their eyes closed. Acella continued walking.

"Think of a horrible time in your life. The worst time. Where you felt so angry. So heated. You want to break things. Be destructive," Acella says walking up to them one by one in a line.

"Excuse me, Miss," Leo says, opening his eyes and raising his hand.

Acella stopped in front of him. "What do you want, Lion?"

"How is this going to help? We already know how to light fire without feeling destructive all the time," he says.

Acella clicked her tounge. "Are you questioning my methods, pussycat?"

Sag let out a laugh and quickly stopped herself.

"N-no, I was just-"

"Do you want to run another lap? How about two?" Acella yells at him.

Leo shook his head and closed his eyes shut again. Acella smirked as she side eyed him, continuing to walk.

"Rule Number One: Do NOT question my methods," she told. "I won't tolerate any questions on how I do things. Just know that whatever I do is because it will help you."

Everyone still had their eyes closed, waiting to be told what to do.

"Back to that time," she says. "Think of when you were just so angry. You wanted to destroy something, maybe even something that was dear to you. Feel that emotion of just how pissed it made you feel."

"Were you abused? Tortured? Cheated on? Vengeful? Feel that feeling and set fire to the memory," she says.

Aries was the first person to set his fire. When he did his, the fire made a circle around the five of us. The fire even lifted up to a little dome that we were in the middle of.

Acella looked at the walls of the dome. "Remarkable," she says, admiring the fire.

She turned back to Aries now. "Okay, good job, Aries. Keep that up. Think of how angry you were. Leo, Sagittarius, do the same thing. Don't be afraid to hurt any of us. We're immune to the fire," she says.

Leo was trying hard. I could tell by his facial expressions that he was trying hard.

Sagittarius on the other side of him had a tiny tear come down her face as she was trying. I couldn't tell if it was because she was trying and nothing worked or because of a memory that made her so mad.

After some time, a little animal formed in her hands. I couldn't tell what it was yet.

"You're almost there, Archer. Keep pushing it. Be mad. Angry. Destructive," Acella says.

I wanted to start questioning her methods, but I knew that would just only upset her. She did have issues after all.

The little moving thing in Sagittarius' hands started to grow bigger. In fact, it grew as big as the fire dome we were inside right now. I could finally see what that was.

It was a dragon.

There was a loud roar which caused her and Leo to shoot their eyes open. They both looked at it and were scared. I heard Sagittarius mumble a phrase of profanity under her breath.

"Holy shit," Leo says, looking at the dragon created by Sagittarius.

The dragon roared again. It was mostly black with fiery orange cracks like lava. The eyes were literally on fire too. I wonder if the other signs were alright beside us due to the fact Aries was still holding up his huge fire dome.

"Okay, Archer, now I want you to get rid of it," Acella says.

Sagittarius whipped her head to Acella. "You made me make it!" she blamed.

"Now I'm telling you to get rid of it!" Acella yelled at her.

"How the fuck do I do that? I'm not even mad anymore!" she says, another tear trickling down her eye.

That was a white lie.

"Self control. Be in complete control back to the time you were mad. Stop the impulsive feeling and be in control," Acella tells her. She turns to Aries now who also had a small tear down his face who also kept a pokerface on. "You too, Ram."

Sagittarius closed her eyes now and aimed her hands at the dragon in front of her that was roaring.

"I don't know how to stop!" Aries yells, eyes still closed. He was obviously mostly frustrated.

"Me neither!" cried Sagittarius.

Acella closed her eyes in frustration. "Goddammit," she says, putting a hand on her forehead.

"Control yourself. When you were mad and destructive, you were also impulsive. I know that you guys were. Now try to control your anger," Acella says.

"The fuck is this? Anger management class?" Leo asks.

"Not helping, Leo," Aries says through gritted teeth.

"Just calm down and be in complete control of your actions and emotions," Acella calmly said.

Soon after, Sagittarius and Aries let down their dragon and their dome. The dome was down, but there was still a ring of fire surrounding us.

I look to the other groups to see them watching the dome drop, leaving a ring of fire. Everybody else was okay, so that was good.

Sagittarius' dragon now was about as big as a basketball now. Leo sighed in relief as that was over.

"What the fuck was that?" someone yelled over to us.

"Stick it up your ass, Cygnus!" Acella yells back.

Soon, all the other groups went around the ring of fire that was still made. Aries and Sagittarius were both still tensed up due to the fact their ring of fire and dragon were still seen.

Aries opened his eyes first as he saw everybody else. He quickly wiped the tear from his eye as he waved his hand causing the ring of fire to fully dim.

Sagittarius opened hers too to see the fire dragon that was actually adorable now. She waved her hand above it to make it disappear, causing tiny fiery orange sparks to fill the air.

"The fuck are you guys looking at?" Aries asks, looking at everyone as he wiped another tear down his face.

"So?" Acella says, actually smiling at the Fire Signs.

"So what?" Sag asks, not even bothering wiping her tears.

"Did it help?" Acella asks.

I can tell that Aries and Sagittarius were furious. It was either because she led them back to an angry memory they would much rather forget or because the fire dome and dragon was a bit too extreme for them.

"That was cool," Libra says, looking at the burnt grass shaped as a circle from the ring.

Taurus nodded in agreement.

"Leo," Acella says, walking up to him now. "You still didn't try."

Leo was silent now as he shrugged. "I can't remember a time I was deeply mad at anybody or anything," he says.

"It's true," Cap says. "This asshole always has a fucking smile on his face even when we're in deep shit."

Virgo nodded and rolled her eyes.

Acella looked back at Leo. "Well, next time I have just the thing for you, Lion," she says with a devishly smirk.

Leo swallowed whatever lump was in his throat.

I clap my hands together. "Well, everybody," I say, "I'm very proud of you. All of you," I say, gesturing to Leo who didn't really do anything today. I was still proud of him for applying himself.

"Should we start again tomorrow?" I ask.

Everybody groaned.

I frowned. I knew they weren't going to like this.

"C'mon," I say, a bit disappointed. "I thought you guys were doing this if Ophiuchus comes. When Ophiuchus comes..."

Everyone was silent now. I see Aquarius look at everybody to see if they wanted to say anything.

"What?" I ask.

Pisces was the first to talk. "It's nothing," he says. "We're just all tired."

Gemini nodded in agreement.

I nodded my head too. "Well, okay, then," I say, feeling skeptical of everybody.

Virgo groaned. "I feel so... dirty," she says.

"Me too," Taurus says, putting his mud in Virgo's hair. Virgo punched his arm causing him to laugh.

I laughed. I know I mentioned this before, but the Zodiacs were just so adorable to me. It was like they were a huge family. I loved all twelve of them like they were my own family.

"I can send you guys back home now if that's what you'd like," I insisted.

Sagittarius wiped her face were another tear was down it. "Yes. Please," she bluntly said.

"Can we actually eat something?" Taurus asks. "Before we get home."

I laughed. "Sure," I said. I gestured my hand for them all to walk inside my house.

Cancer was the first to walk back inside the house. I didn't want muddy tracks back inside my house, but I let it slide for them. I followed them all back inside my house.

Something suddenly gave me a feeling. It was such a strong and intense feeling. I felt so protective over them. I knew I always have since they got here, but now it was just a stronger feeling.

I must protect the zodiacs.
