"Do you think she is trying to kill us," James whispered.

     "Definitely," Remus said slumping on James.

     I narrowed my eyes at them, "You guys are the ones that told me to train you! Stop whining!"

     "Can't we just get a break," Peter asked nervously.

     I sighed, "Peter go run on lap around Camp. Don't complain, do 100 daily."

     "Can I talk someone with me," he squeaked.

     I thought for a moment. Sirius was getting on my nerves so mind as well get rid of him for now, "Sirius go with Peter!"

     "What why! I need to stay here so I can impress you with my skills," Sirius yelled picking up a throwing knife and aiming towards the spot.

     It missed completely.

     "Impress," I asked.

     "Fine I'll go," Sirius said sadly following behind Peter who got a bit of a head start.

     Peter had woken up from his nap and didn't know what he was training for but went along with it. He seems very off.

     "We finished our 10 laps. I didn't know I was this out of shape until now," Mars said appearing in front of me out of breath.

     Mary, Lily, Alice, and Annie behind her. Annie had decided to help me train the girl by doing laps with them which wasn't a big help. She did motivate them to keep going and gave them tips on how to build up their stamina.

      Percy was teaching Regulus, Gideon and Fabian how to use a sword. They had made a lot of progress.

      "Alright great! I started teaching Lily how to use a bow and arrow before so hope you have been practicing," I said looking at her.

     Lily smiled proudly, "I'm almost as good as you!"

     "That's great, Annie could you and Lily start practicing since she is a bit ahead," I asked.

     "Sure, let's go Lily," Annie said leading her away, they had grown a sisterly bond and made me so happy.

     "What about us," James asked pointing at himself and Remus.

      "I'm having my dear friend Clarisse La Rue deal with that," I said smirking.

      Clarisse didn't know anything about me being a witch but willing to train them only so she can torture them.

     "Why does she sound scary," Remus asked looking around.

     "Daughter of Aries," I said shrugging.

     "So these are the kids. Very scrawny," Clarisse said looping an arm around my shoulder and doing a once over of James and Remus.

     "Agreed," I said nodding.

     "Rude," James muttered.

     "What was that, can't hear you. Also wasn't I supposed to get 4 to torture-I mean train," she said innocently.

     "T-torture," Remus stuttered.

     "She was kidding," I said forcing her to nod.

     "So about the other 2 that are late for their class," Clarisse said annoyed.

     "Peter and Sirius are doing one more lap around camp since they were annoying me," I said, "They should be back in 10 minutes!"

     "Good, let's get started on you 2, we will be physically fighting because during the war since we might lose our weapons. Then we will move on to knives," Clarisse told them with a smirk of amusement. 

     I turned to Mary, Alice, and Mars once Clarisse, James, and Remus moved, "Alright so I'll be teaching you guys how to do archery!"

     "Great, when do we get the bow and arrow," Mary asked a little nervous.

     "First I want you to watch what I do and make note, then we will work on your stance and then get the bow and arrow," I replied.

     "I'm so excited to see you in action," Alice said jumping up and down.

      Mars still breathless from their run stumbled out a, "Can I get some water?"

     "Go ahead, don't drink too much though," I told them as they went to the bench to sit down for a bit and drink a bit of water.

      "We are back," Sirius said.

     I turned around to see an almost dead Peter and Sirius who had taken his shirt off and was glistening with sweat.

     I looked away and said, "Go take a water break and report to Clarisse over there. You will learn physical fighting."

     "Okay," Peter said in a small voice as he scrambled to get some water.

     "Why won't you train me," Sirius asked.

     "Because I'm teaching the girls how to do archery, I'll have you in 3 days when I teach the Marauder's how to do archery," I explained, we were doing some type of cycle so everyone can get a bit of each.

     "I had one questions that I've been thinking of," Sirius said.

     "Ask away," I said staring at him, I didn't want him to ask me to be his girlfriend again.

     To my surprise he asked, "Will we be allowed to use our wands?

      "I'm not sure since you are underage and aren't allowed to use magic out of Hogwarts grounds," I explained.

      "I'll ask Dumbledore if he can ask the Ministry," Sirius said.

     "You! Get your ass over here," Clarisse yelled to Sirius.

     "Good luck with her. That's Clarisse. Also put on a shirt," I said.

     Sirius smirked, "Are you too distracted or is it that you are jealous of my god like body being shown to everyone?"

     "One, you shouldn't say god like body here at can because if you haven't noticed, we are half gods. Two, stop thinking that everything evolves around me and you. We are over," I said turning around a walking to the girls.

      "He is such a simp," Mars said wiggling her eyebrows at me.

     I sighed, "I don't want to talk about him right now. Water break is over so let's get started."

     Mary stood up first, "I'm a bit nervous but let's go!"

     "First things first, watch how I stand when I shoot," I said glancing at each one of them one by one.

     I stood up straight and widened my feet so they were just about near the length of my shoulders. With even weight on both of my feet I acted like I was holding a bow and arrow in my hand.

     "That looks pretty easy," Alice said doing exactly what I did.

     I smiled, "Perfect! You're a natural!"

     "Thank you," Alice said giving me a bright smile.

     "Like this," Mary asked standing next to Alice.

     "Not quite, straighten your back a bit more," I said standing straight as I talked to her.

     Mary straightened her back a bit more until he had the perfect stance, "I think I did it right?"

      "Yeah you did and so did I," Mars said looking at me for approval.

      I clapped my hands, "Good job! Now I know we are moving fast but we don't have much time so let's start shooting!"

     We went into the Armory to grab a few bow and arrows for the girls to use. I loved this place, weapon's everywhere.

     "Wow this is so cool," Alice said examining the set.

      "Agreed," Mars said flipping it on all angles to get a better look.

      "This one is a bit heavy," Mary told me.

      "Try this one," I said picking up another set that I knew had a lighter weight.

      We all went back outside. I showed the girls how to equip their weapon and how to hold it,". While they practiced how to do that, I set up some targets for us to hit.

      "Aster watch out," Alice yelled panicking as I saw a arrow fly past me and hit the yellow circle but not exactly in the middle.

     I turned around a clapped my hands, "That was really good!"

      "That's our Badass Cinnamon Roll," Mars said patting her on the back while Mary hugged her.

      "Alright that's continue shooting for 10 more minutes before we go to dinner," I said in a bossy voice.

      "Yes boss," Mary's said giggling.

      I shook my head laughing. I felt good and not worried about the war for once. This war was going to huge and I had a feeling I was going to be in the middle of it all.
