The lost hybrid 281
Safiya is conspicuously absent the next morning at breakfast. I can tell by her power signature that she is here but she did not come to eat breakfast with the rest of us. Simonetta, on the other hand, had no issues coming to breakfast with the Coven. "So, Laina, when do you plan on getting the witches and the werewolves to mingle some more?" Simonetta asks. I ponder the question before answering. This would be a wonderful question to have Safiya with us for. Hoping that my hunch that they have a way to communicate with their minds, I choose my next words well. "I am hoping to have a dinner soon with both species. Considering a lot of the mingling that has happened lately, I have high hopes that it will be fruitful." I tell her sweetly. "Oh, do the species mingle often that you know of then?" She asks with a brow raised. "The few times that I know of they seem to." I admit. While I am talking Hazel is very unsuccessfully hiding the fact that she is freaking out over what I am say

We begin our walk to the training area to begin our training with the werewolves. First, I am going to teach the witches how to make the shadow people that I have been using to help the pack with their training. That way, they will be able to split up and help different groups that are different levels with their training. Eventually, I want to have the witches teach the pack members how to deal with attacks from other witches and vice versa. If possible, I want to make both the Coven and the pack function as a cohesive unit. "Laina, where are we going?" Hazel says running up to me as we all begin walking towards the pack's territory."We are going on a field trip. We are going to be working with the werewolves on training exercises." I tell her matter of factly.She looks a little nervous for a minute. I guess she is not ready to see her fling around the other witches yet. It could be interesting to watch her get flustered around everybody."If there is someone that you would like t

Julia and I each take half of the witches with us so that we can explain how to make the shadow people for the werewolves to practice with. The idea behind making the people is rather simple. Getting them to behave the way that we want is the hardest part. The person that is creating the shadow people has to be the most exact when it comes to the moves that they have to know. Since the witches do not know how to do all of the fighting stances they are going to have to learn how to replicate what Dante or I show them.Once all of the witches have learned how to make the shadow people, Dante begins to explain the combinations that the werewolves are going to work on today. Simonetta stands along the side of the wall watching as I walk up to join Dante as we show everybody what is expected of us. Trying to get it all to come together nicely is what is going to be extremely tricky. I am going to have to check each of the witch's work as well as all of the werewolf's to make sure that ever

Julia is an extremely patient teacher when it comes to the witches. It must be because she remembers how much she struggled to learn how to use hand to hand combat. I had to start her with younger kids so that she would be able to keep up. It took quite a while for her to master anything as she was not as naturally gifted physically but she still did push herself to learn as much as she could so far. We begin by teaching them the basic stances. It is important that they know how to stand correctly before hitting somebody or being hit by somebody. Some of the witches seem to catch on rather quickly while the ones that have stuck to tradition more strictly do not want to try as hard. Simonetta continues to watch us all with a stuck up look on her face. I bet that there is no way that I would ever manage to catch her out on a mat working on fighting stances. Carlina comes up to me as I work with some of the witches. She did not originally come with us to train so I can only assume th

During lunch all of the witches talked excitedly about some of the stuff that they had learned. Some of the witches were more excited about the shadow people while a few were excited at learning hand to hand combat. I make a mental note which ones enjoy the combat so that I can make sure that they are given every opportunity to practice that they can get in the future. It is mostly the younger witches that enjoyed the combat."Laina, what did you hope to achieve by having all of the witches practicing with the werewolves today? I know that I said you needed to get them together based off of the visions you have been speaking of but I cannot see what today could have possibly accomplished." Simonetta asks with a false sweetness.Just then, Safiya walks into the dining area and takes the open seat next to Simonetta. They exchange small smiles while I ponder how to answer her questions. To an outsider it might not seem like much was accomplished today but considering the past between thi

For the next couple of weeks I continue to make snide remarks around Safiya without actually coming out and telling her that I know what she has been up to. For the first week after my original remark she does not sneak out again but it is not too long before I catch her sneaking out once again. Instead of following her every time I sometimes wait just inside the door as she comes back so that she can see that I know she snuck off. The first time she seems startled and nervous but once she realizes that I am not telling anybody she starts to ignore me. Knowing that she is getting more comfortable is a bit unsettling. While I do want her to trust me I also would like for her to know that at any time I can reveal her secret. I need to covince her to be on my side if it comes down to a split between the Council members. Considering that she is sleeping with a werewolf it is hard to see her siding with Simonetta but I am sure that it could still happen.Carlina has been joining us for pr

As all of the witches square off with each other to begin their sparring matches, I prepare myself for a decent show. Most likely just drama filled but I will still take it. Hazel launches herself at Jade without a moments hesitation leaving Jade to scrabble and try to block her. Their enthusiasm for combat shows as they are fighting with very little regard to their actual training. If I did not know any better I would think that they were not friends at all.Carlina and Katrin study each other carefully before setting up for the fight. They circle each other before Katrin finally makes the first move. Carlina blocks the move easily and the fight continues on. They fight the opposite of how Hazel and Jade are still going at it.Both Carlina and Katrin are performing their moves flawlessly. It looks like they have been practicing for quite a while. Each move flows into the next with the opposite person blocking it seamlessly. If I did not know better, I would think that they had been p

After our first sparring practice we all head back to the house. The witches are all grumbling about how sore they are. Some are even bringing up the sparring match between Blair and Samara. They all seem rather shocked by how much anger was in their match. The matches between the two Council members and Jade and Hazel are spoken of just as frequently. This time with a small amount of reverence.Everybody seems to have much more excitement for the combat training after today. The sparring really put into perspective how much the basics training helps. At the end of the week I would like to have a celebration. I was thinking of doing something like the dinner that I have with the wolves but maybe it is time that we do something else with both species. I do not want to incringe on the pack's dinner but I still want to do something for the witches. I guess that it is possible that I have an entire weekend of celebrations. One day for the wolves, one for the witches and one for a combina
