"Oh." I repeated, and she nodded.
"We need to train, train, train, pronto!" She said, and started off for the lounge room that was full of everyone playing games and having fun.
"Great." I said. "Another war."
"No. Not another one. The last fight was a battle, this is the war." Jerek put an around me, and my eyes flicked to Tabra who was looking at us.
"Are آپ okay, Tabra?" I asked him.
"Just fine." He answered, and looked at Jerek, then down at his hands.
"Well..." I کہا under my breath. "Crap."
"Let's talk strategy?" Tabra asked.
"Yes!" I jumped to my feet, and felt Jerek's arm fall off of me.
"Alright, let's go." Jerek said, and lead the way to his room so we could talk in private.
When we got to the lounge, we saw Shropee in front of everyone, talking about the latest news.
"...And we will fight them to the death. I know this brings back memories of the battle with Haus, and I'm sorry for what happened there, but we have to face this evil for the last time. Not only will we not lose. We will win. Are آپ up for it?"
Everyone nodded and کہا their yes's, but one of our men stood up.
"No. Not only will we lose, we will die. I've seen what they are like, they...they are...nothing like we've faced before. Absolutely. Nothing. We will die before we try, and آپ know why?"
"Why?" I asked, and he turned to face me.
"Because the Oracle says so." He smiled, and I felt that he was right.
We would lose. We would die.
And yet I wasn't scared.

"When we were five, they asked us what we wanted to be when we grew up. Our جوابات were things like astronaut, president, یا in my case… princess.
When we were ten, they asked again and we answered - rock star, cowboy, یا in my case, سونا medalist. But now that we've grown up, they want a serious answer. Well, how 'bout this: who the hell knows?!
This isn't the time to make hard and fast decisions, its time to make mistakes. Take the wrong train and get stuck somewhere chill. Fall in love - a lot. Major in philosophy 'cause there's no way to make a career out of that. Change your mind. Then change it again, because nothing is permanent.
So make as many mistakes as آپ can. That way, someday, when they ask again what we want to be… we won't have to guess. We'll know."
