Staring at the tree that the ID was standing behind, Ivy sighed and disappeared from sight. She didn't go far and in fact, appeared above the ID. Hiding in the tree. Ivy put her on her side thigh before having it disappear and silently watched the figure.
--------------------------------------------------
Ruby had no idea who else would be in these woods but right now she had to reach the kingdom and tell her commander of what she saw. She couldn't believe what she just saw, the Lumina's most infamous thief that stole the most precious military AI that was ever created. Here, in this very forest!
Ruby had no idea what happened but the thief disappears out of thin air. Like teleported which made this terribly worst. If she didn't move now, she'll most likely end up dead.
Crack.
Ruby looked up only to see a person falling on top of her, she quickly dodged to the side however there was something odd about this person. Was it the dark clothing that the attacker was wearing? She felt like she has seen this clothing before.
"Any idea Alpha?" Ruby asked her AI, an AI that popped up with a bright crimson color. It currently had the body of a female and even the voice of one as it stared intensely at the new arrival.
"You're at a disadvantage, you don't have a weapon and they have the Omega AI," Alpha spoke honestly.
The attacker missed their target leaving a small crater in the ground. Ruby assumed they must have been hoping their attack would have hit their target. Ruby prepared herself, she held her fist in front of her face as her AI disappeared. She had a fire inside her eyes as she smiled before charging at the attackers. (A/N: I'm gonna do both POV, I know it will be a bit difficult so I'll try my best to show what's happening to both sides.)
Seeing her first attack failed, Ivy was ready to fight back. She watched as her opponent made her first move. Charging without any idea how strong Ivy was. Foolish. She first side-stepped the first punch which seemed to be able to break the sound barrier as it propelled a large gust of wind. Almost knocking Ivy off her feet.
Ruby started with a fast barrage of punches, each punch was able to send forward a massive gush of wind, making it almost impossible to dodge. However, Ruby was surprised to find her opponent was a lot quicker and agile on their feet than normal. Even when she thought that she made contact with her attacker, she didn't feel anything.
Ruby immediately backed off and watched her opponent. Something was wrong about this fight, her attacker wasn't fighting back. Ruby looked at her attacker more closely, she could tell that her opponent's armor was very rare and definitely need a skillful eye and dexterous hands. She continued to observe this mysterious person.
--------------------------------------------------
Although Ivy was able to dodge the woman's fierce attacks, she could not ignore that she was fighting a very very strong opponent. What made Ivy a bit confused is that it was the same woman she saved earlier.
As much as Ivy would love to know why this woman was attacking her, she was met with a powerful fist right to the chest. Knocking all the air out of her chest.
"What-- *cough* the hell?!" as much as she loved to keep her voice problem more of a secret, Ivy could not stop herself this time as she held her chest and dodged the next attack.
Ivy blocked the next attack and pushed her opponent back before pulling her opponent by the arm and headbutting the girl. Although it wasn't necessary for a headbutt, it knocked both of them a bit dizzy as their vision danced around.
--------------------------------------------------
Ruby, dizzy and on the verge of throwing up, stood her ground and charged at the thief, tackling them to the ground and throwing punches left and right. Although she was dizzy, her opponent seems to be almost fine and held up their forearms for protection
Ruby realize she would go nowhere so she got off before slamming her foot into the side of her attacker and launched them in a nearby innocent tree. She rushed towards the thief before they could get their bearing. Ruby slammed each other through the tree, she got back on her feet and watched as her thief didn't seem to get up.
Ruby chuckled before she picked up the thief by the throat. She was surprised to find that her thief wasn't struggling. They weren't even trying to resist. This made Ruby much more suspicious and curious, then there was something odd about this person. Although her thief did shout out, the person had the body of a female with quite the busty chest, small but plump-ish butt.
--------------------------------------------------
Ivy looked up at her opponent and smirked, ("I feel like shit. Whatever just gotta get this girl off of me"). She lifted her left hand that was surging with dark crimson mana, creating a small surge of mana in a sphere form before blasting both of them away, meters apart. Ivy smashed right through another innocent tree while the woman was smashed into a tree, coughing up blood from her mouth.
("Incredible, but what was that mana?") Ruby questioned her opponent's last resort attack. She quickly got herself off the ground as she followed past the ashen ground and found her thief once again.
Ivy cradle her left arm and tried to limp away before being tackled to the ground with both arms being held tightly behind her.
"Don't try to do that trick again thief!" the woman shouted as she noticed Ivy trying to create another sphere of corrupted mana.
"This could help us, if she brings us into the kingdom then we could easily escape," Omega said while quietly healing Ivy's body. Ivy was lucky that her clothing was able to sustain most of the blast but being point-blank did quite a number on her clothing. She laughed in her mind before relaxing her body. Ivy knew she wouldn't be able to fight against this person without her left arm.
Ruby noticed the thief's body suddenly relax, albeit tense but she could hear a sigh. Ruby opened her mouth but she didn't know what to say so she closed it. Ruby quickly cuffed the thief up and observed the fighting style her opponent had. She had a plan for this thief, most hopefully execution but she wonders how she could convince her commanding officers. She smiled a little before kneeling next the thief's ear and spoke, "I'll see if you can be able to repent for your mistakes."
