Harry started his advance towards Sarah and tries to strike her with his shield. Sarah just went to kick his shield back, but she used so much force that Harry wasn't expecting it.
*POUGH!*
She forced Harry back with so much force that he tripped and fell back.
"Your way stronger than I thought!"
Even if harry put everything into that strike it still blew him backward. She was already on top of him, throwing two swings in before he swung his shield in front of him to retaliate.
"Not going to talk, eh?"
"only when I am safe."
Harry got his most stable stance to prevent him from falling back again.
Sarah decided that she might wear him down if she pressured him enough. She ran up to him and swung her sword twice, then followed up with a kick next. She went for three swings and charged into his shield.
At this point, Harry was in trouble as his arm was going numb from the heavy impacts. He needed to do something, but he wasn't sure what. Then he comes up with an idea since his defense can't keep up he might as well ditch it.
Harry kicked the shield towards Sarah which stunned her slightly but she blocked it and hopped backward before Harry could get close enough. Harry's swing's aimed at her, but he missed her entirely.
Sarah leaped forward and swung at Harry as he blocked it with his sword.
'I am in real trouble if I take another hit like that.'
The swing had a tremendous force behind it, and it put a lot of stress onto his wrist. After that first swing, he dodges every single one that he could.
*Pff!*
One of Sarah's attacks connected on his shoulder and swung him in a circle before he fell to the ground. He rolled backward and got up again, but she was already right there to make another swing. He thought he might bring her off balance if he could get an excellent step on her foot, but as soon as he did; She forced her foot up and into the air to bring Harry along with her. Harry's knee was all the way by his chest, bringing a lot of stress and pain while he was practically in the air now.
Sarah continued her assault as she swung her sword down into him, slamming him down into the ground.
"Bleugh!"
*Poom!*
Harry sat there in tremendous pain as he gritted his teeth. Immediately Zora proclaimed the winner and ran for the teacher.
"Sarah wins!"
Zora ran as fast as she could for the teacher's help.
"Harry is in a lot of pain could you please help him right away!"
Both Zora and the teacher ran towards Harry and healed him immediately.
"He definitely took quite the beating. Miss Oliver, we may just have you spar with Donald."
Both Zora and Harry had a disappointed look upon their faces, but they knew how strong Sarah was.
"Donald! We got a kid ready here to spar you!"
"Already I thought you were going to have them spar for a set time."
"well, this one is too strong for her partners."
"Alright then let's see what she's got."
"My name is Sarah Oliver."
��Nice to meet you. Miss Suzuki, may we use actual weapons?"
"That is up to Sarah. I can even heal critically injured people so you two will be fine."
"I am up for it."
"Wonderful, you look like you could handle yourself in an actual fight."
"What makes you say that?"
"Something you get a feel for after years of fighting in battle."
"Alright, I'll get into position."
Sarah and Donald both got into their circles. Donald's hand reached out and smoke leaked out of his hand and a mechanical sword manifested.
"That's amazing you can create mechanical weapons!"
"Yeah, let's see what you can do."
Sarah's hand exploded with blood, and a sword of blood manifested. blood was still pouring out of her hands, but something odd happened. The blood steamed up and turned into a metallic red and black blade. She did the same thing with her shield. They were both sleek and looked sturdier than any planet found metals.
"what a wonderful ability to have. That is something rare."
"Ready? three! Two! one! Fight."
They launched forward at each other at incredible speeds. Donald went for the first swing and it got blocked by Sarah. Her entire body slid to the side, but she didn't show much of a sign of Resistance. She returned her swig as hard as she could to hit Donald, but his arm manifested a metal arm protector instantly. Donald did show that he had to resist a lot harder than Sarah did when he attacked.
Both of them pushed each other back, and they started at each other again. Sarah's heavy blows were being blocked by Donald each time. Sometimes she would strike with her shield, but he would dodge the attack. Each time their swords would chime every time they clashed. They almost looked like they were dancing with each other. The two were constantly going in circles as time went on.
Sarah would try to grab Donald's hand or even his blade sometimes, but he would move just in time sometimes he would get a cut in. Sarah tried driving in close and low and pushed him upwards into the air and it seemed to work in putting on the pressure. While she was doing so she would kick his feet. Donald also did the same as he would block her low kicks. Sarah used straight jabs with wide swings to change the block required to guard it.
"is it okay to use range attacks?"
Donald just put his blade towards his stomach and launched his blade towards Sarah.
"I'll take that as a yes."
Sarah sprinted in and low to launch a blood copy of her shield that exploded from her and launched Donald into the air. She got underneath him and swung at him. Donald used enough force to block the attack to keep him in the air while he sent another strike towards Sarah. Everyone else showed an amazed expression, but Sarah kept a straight face as if she were used to this.
"impressive."
Donald took a mid-air step by using the explosive power of his smoke underneath his feet. He launched himself to the ground and punched Sarah's shield so hard it launched her into the air next.
But the next thing surprised Donald so much that she caught him off guard. She created an explosive blood bomb that stunned him while she used her ability to send her back towards Donald and she swung and hit him from the side, launching him almost off the sparring ground. There was a long cut on his side now that was bleeding, but it wasn't as deep as it seemed it should've been.
"You're tough!"
"I wouldn't be advancing to the ADTT ranks if I were so easily killed. But you're definitely a tough opponent, I won't hold back anymore."
He shrouded his body in smoke that made the outline of his body much harder to see.
"Neither will I!"
Her body steamed up from the excessive heat she was now producing. She covered an immense distance in a single step and swung her sword to release a splash of blood that seemed to cover Donald.
"There you are!"
The two disappeared in the smoke and the quick succession of chimes rang out from their swords and her shield. They both were constantly being sent back from the other person. Sometimes Sarah would appear from the smoke as he launched her back and she would hop back into it, other times Donald was being launched backward. Donald even launched his blade at her multiple times as we could see it coming out of the smoke. You could see as well explosions of blood that launched Donald into the air as they fought.
Over time, you could see that there were many cuts and wounds on Sarah, but they were being covered in blobs of blood.
Donald dissipated the smoke from himself as it was not helping at all. You could see him with blood covering him whether it be from the bombs or his wounds. He started launching a barrage of smoke that turned into metal bullets that overwhelmed Sarah and forced her to take a knee.
"AAaa! Fine, you win!"
She was sitting there with blobs of blood that were covering most of her body at this point. She fell to her knees and collapsed.
Teacher Suzuki ran to her aid as the blood slowly started flowing down into the sparring arena. After 10 minutes went by, she's finally healed and got up.
"Miss Oliver people don't normally have such a high pain tolerance as you do, especially at your age."
"My dad has been teaching me how to fight since I was young. He is someone who used to fight at the front lines."
"It takes ten years to get there and back from here. Is he in his forties?"
"he was born near the front lines and he learned on the battlefield. He spent the last twenty years learning different fields of education. So yes, he is in his late forties but he was born near the battlefield."
"no wonder you're a splendid fighter. But your pain tolerance is way too high still."
"Me and my dad train using actual weapons. If I am not careful, he could kill me in combat."
"You definitely had a rough upbringing."
"When you don't want to lose someone precious to you again, you'd definitely want to make sure they can protect themselves."
"So your mother?"
"She's dead."
"I am sorry to hear."
"It's fine."
