I smirk as we walk out. I know that Mr. Sentor does not like me. And honestly do not care. We walk to the back and he said, "Let's test your agility."
He snaps his fingers and an obstacle course rises from the ground. Okie then. He looked at me and said, "Why not you go first Akiho?"
I shrugged my shoulders and said, "Sure. Let's go this."
He nods to me and I run into it. There were barbed wires along the floor. I run faster and slide. I tuck my left foot behind the back of my right kneecap. I make it to the end and roll and stand up. I continue running and see a wall about 10 feet all.
I smirk and jump. I make it about 4 feet and climb quickly. I just imagine myself being chased by a monster. It works well.
I make it and jump off. I roll my landing and continue running. I see a split in the middle. One way leads to a dodging area while the other one needs you to climb more.
I take the dodging. I see something coming at my head. I hold my hand out and catch it. I push it back and keep running.
I dodge some swinging swords and make it to the end. I walked back over to them. I said, "Good enough for you Mr. Sentos?"
He nods and said, "Impressive. I did not expect that."
I shrugged my shoulders and said, "Yeah. You learn quickly when need to."
I walk back to the others. Asher said, "Damn. I was not prepared for you to grab the giant wood block and literally push it back into its spot."
I said, "Yeah. I just let my reflexes move me."
Neige said, "Sliding under the wire was risky though."
I said, "Yeah. But if you do it right, it will get you done faster than crawling."
Squalos agreed. Everyone went through. Mr. Sentos said, "Time for some attacking. Choose a partner."
Asher said, "I got a score to settle with you."
I shrug and said, "Bring it."
We go into a large box. Me and Asher were up first I guess. I get ready to fight. And so did Asher. Mr. Sentos said, "The match will end when the other is bloody or they tap out. Understand?"
We both nod. I said, "I am not going easy on you Asher."
He smirked and said, "And neither am I. Even if you are cute."
I stick out my tongue and we begin. I wait for him to do something. He throws a punch. I catch it and he sweeps his leg. I jump and go over Asher. I slam him into the ground.
He landed with a satisfying slap. I still had his hand in mine. I go on top of him and press my right foot on the back of his neck. I used his hand and move it all the way to the left. He could do bare to none with that hand in this position. He struggled under me. He tried to use his other hand and hit my leg. I catch it and do the same with his other hand. I said, "Tap out?"
He grunt a no. He kept struggling. Mr. Sentos said, "Akiho wins."
I get off of him. And Asher gets up. He flinches in pain as he moves his arms. I go and sit back down. I saw sitting between Asher and Vitos. Neige and Squalos were fighting. Vitos said, "That was impressive what you did out there."
I said, "Thanks. It was very simple actually."
Avalon said, "Mom did describe someone who fought with her. I am guess that was you?"
I nodded and said, "Probably. I did a lot of fighting with Woodia."
Avalon said, "She says you were a killing machine."
I nodded and said, "During the war yeah. But I try not to unless you piss me off enough."
Avalon went wide eyed. Neige and Squalos came back. Vitos and Avalon went to fight. Neige looks like he got quite a beating. But Squalos was bad, but not as bad. I said, "Had fun out there?"
Squalos said, "Oh yeah. It is always this fun when we fight. "
The sun starting to fall. But we had at least 3 hours before it got totally dark. After Vitos and Avalon got done, Neige said, "Let's go home."
I nodded and we left. I got my weapons back. We got back into the car and drove back to the Water Kingdom.
We made it and Dew was there. I had my hood back up. We enter the castle and Flo said, "How did she do?"
Neige said, "She destroyed."
Dew said, "Let's go Akiho."
I nod and we walk off. We go back to her room. She sits on her bed. She said, "How was being surrounded by males?"
I smirked and said, "Let's just say I made a big dent in that class."
She raised an eyebrow and said, "How so?"
I said ,"I corrected Mr. Sentos about the Mystical War."
Her mouth dropped. She said, "He was actually wrong about something?"
I nodded and said, "Yeah. I had someone back me up and he was shook. It was great. I also fought Asher."
She nodded and said ,"How did that go?He is a strong fighter."
I said, "I beat him easily actually. I won because I had him to where he could not move."
She was shocked. She said, "That is impressive."
I yawn and she said, "We can go to bed if you want."
I nodded and said, "Sure."
I go by her pillows and she lays down. She said, "About last night."
I said, "It will stay in here."
She nodded with a blush. She said, "Do you mind if I sleep down there with you. You seemed to calm me down."
I said, "Will you be comfortable?"
She said, "I have no clue."
I stand up and she moves. I lay down and said, "I will sleep up here so it is better for you."
She nods. We fell asleep facing each other. I got woken up again by her. She was having another bad dream. I gently shake her awake. No tears this time but cold sweat.
I said, "You okie?"
She shakes her head no while shaking. I press her head to my heart. She wraps her arms around my back and link them. I whispered, "No one will hurt you. I am here with you."
I could feel her take a deep calming breath. She nods and went back to sleep. I went back to bed a few minutes later.
I got woken up by someone walking up to me. I open my eyes and then my head to see Neige and Squalos. I whispered, "What?"
Neige said, "What are you doing with Dew?"
Squalos said, "Looks like they are cuddling."
I gave out a low growl and said, "Drop it. She had a bad dream and I was comforting her. Now what do you want?"
Neige said, "We want you to come with us to finish Squalos quest."
I nodded and untangled myself from Dew. I pulled the blanket over her and made sure she was good before we left.
We walked out and swam back to the river. We leave the river and I said, "What was your quest?"
Squalos said, "There was some criminal sirens hiding there and we need to escort them out."
I nodded and said, "Do you know where they are at the moment?"
