With our arrows wedged tightly in the bullseye, the crowd buzzed with excitement. Two human sisters ruling a demon realm archery contest it was definitely a rare sight.
The announcer, clearly caught up in the thrill, raised his voice. "Looks like we have a tie! But we can't leave without crowning a winner!" He waved for a final target to be brought forward. It was about the size of a coin, and they set it even farther away, so far that it seemed to blur, swaying a little in the breeze.
I turned to Lydia, trying to hide my own nerves with a smirk. "Ready to lose?" I teased, giving her a wink. The challenge felt like the old days, but with higher stakes and a much stranger audience.
She grinned back, but I could tell she was a little unsure. "You know me, Riley. I love a challenge."
Rolling my shoulders to loosen the tension, I chuckled. "You're on, little sister."
