A Prince and his Phoenix

Introduction:
===    It was a cool and sunny morning, the birds were flying overhead and the ocean's current was still,and suddenly one kid arouse from his slumber, it was the little Prince, Alex Wolftail. He hopped out of bed and then the many hands of servants cleaned him, dressed him, and cooked for him. His father, Aaron Wolftail, The King, has called for his son to the training grounds. "Ah. Son! I am glad you could make it." he enthuisiasticly shouted. Alex replied questionably "What is it Father?" "Son." his father said "I want to teach you magic." Alex looked puzzled, "Magic?" "Yes. Magic." his father shouted. The King showed The Prince the orb, "See this? It is called lacrima. This will make you harness the abilities of a phoenix!" " A phoenix? Aren't those mythological?" Alex said in disbelief. "Why would they be?" his father replied. His father whistled and a miniature bird that was black as shadows came down and landed on his shoulders, "This is the Shadow Phoenix, Umbraga." The phoenix squaked "Hello little one." Alex looked in shock "That's......that's a phoenix!" "And?" Umbraga replied. "I thought you guys don't exist" Alex pleaded "Of course we do. We don't like showing ourselfs to mere humans. I will teach you the ways of Shadow Phoenix Slayer Magic." Umbraga answered. "We will begin training tomorrow" He screeched then flew away. Alex's Dad smirked, "Hehehe you two will get along. Well run along and play your training starts tomorrow." "Yes father." he said nervously as he watched his dad walk away. ===
