Adam is woken up by Diana licking his face some time after their fight with Alice. He lifts himself up while holding his head in an attempt to recollect what happened. He finds his answer as he looks down with one fully opened eye to see that his clothes are nearly burned completely off. 

Adam: Hey girl.

He pets Diana’s head as she stands up on his leg, wagging her tail in excitement that he’s finally awake. He takes another look at his clothes with a slightly saddened expression.

Adam: Ah man… It happened again.  At least I have spare clothes this time. *Sniff* What's that sme- 

Adam stops mid sentence because of the pressure emitted from the fight and looks back. A sweat rolls down his cheek and off of his chin as he feels the immense pressure of their mere intentions.

Adam: Wh-What the hell is that… Just their battle alone makes me feel… so... inferior…-he thinks to himself-

Aiden and Vince clash across the field breaking the ground beneath them at each strike.

Aiden: I’ll have to stick with close ranged attacks since this guy counters everything I throw at ‘em, but that’s not the only problem…he’s countering my blade with his bare hands and there's not so much as a scratch on him.. It feels like I'm clashing against… another sword.

Vince: Hm, I can see you’re puzzled, you’re thinking: “How is he clashing my blade with his bare hands” right? -he asks with a smirk-

Aiden: Oh really? How can you tell? -he asks with a raised brow-

Vince: Reading emotions is a basic need for an assassin, for example: left swing, over head, back slash…

As Vince speaks of every motion Aiden is making before they’re made, but…

Vince: low swe- 

Vince is cut off by the sudden change in direction of his attack. His cross necklace flings up as the blade crosses his chest.

Aiden: Nice try but, the whole premise of my style is sudden changes so since you wanna “read my emotions” read this. 

Aidens swing makes jagged turns and changes directions before hitting Vince. Vince is slightly shocked by this.

Vince: Well that’s one poi-

Aiden quickly swings again hitting his left shoulder and forearm. Sparks fly from the collision. They make eye contact and Vince seems to get a bit more irritated from Aidens smug look.

Aiden: 3 points. -he smiles-

Kenu: Jeez, just how hard have you been training?? Man, I’m gonna have a hard time catching back up… 

He wears a disappointed but more so excited expression as he looks at their fight. Kobe looks over at Kenu with curiosity.

Kobe: So, that promise he was speaking of earlier. I’m guessing you’ve known each other for a while?

Kenu: Yea, we were actually rivals when we were younger!

Stella: You?? Rivals with him?? hahaha! *phew* Good one. -she mockingly snickers-

He looks back at her with a confused and offended look as if he said something wrong.

Stella: Oh… you’re serious. HAHAHA. -she laughs hysterically-

Kenu: Yea and?? What’s funny? -he asks with an offended tone-

Alco: I mean she’s got a point, you don't have the…uhhh.

He looks at Kenu then back at the two fighters.

Alco: …Composure to have rivaled someone of his caliber. 

Taison: You don't gotta be rude to ‘em.

Alco: I mean, I'm just being honest, if that were to be said around one of the high royals it wouldn’t be pretty.

Kenu is shocked by the statement.

Kenu: Huh? What are you talking about?? They’ve never told me anything like that…

Kobe: You’re too young for a conversation like that… for now, let's pay attention and see how your “rival” does in this fight.

Kenu gives an annoyed look then turns back to the fight.

Aiden is shown to be hitting Vince again with a spinning slash.

Aiden: That’s 10 points. -smirk-

The light from Vince’s eyes fade as he suddenly stands still. Aiden stops his attack and jumps back from the sudden malice he senses. Vince stares at Aiden with darkened eyes standing head tilted and hand held up in a claw like pose.

Vince: Oh sorry bout that, “it” tends to slip sometimes. -he expresses as he scratched his head- 

Vince: Anyway... I’m slightly annoyed at this little “edge” you think you have so… I’m going to try... just a little more. -he remarks with a serious look-

Aiden gets a concerned look and suddenly gets a tap on his shoulder.

Vince: So you remember how…

Aiden swings his sword behind him but hits an afterimage and Vince suddenly in front of him.

Vince proceeds to grab his other arm and prepares to attack, Aiden attempts to swing but notices his arm won’t respond.

Vince: I said I was going to hit you with this and you said “Like to see you try?” Well “see” this.

Vince proceeds to hit him with Impact Pulse. Vibrations reverberate across Aidens chest and lead up to breaking his lower ribs and causing Aiden to cough up blood.

Aiden: Gah!! -he yells with a pained face-

Kenu: Aiden!!! -he screams in a shocked tone-

Kayla gasps with her mouth covered.

Leo: That was brutal.

Ura: …

Alice: Jeez he didn't deserve that.

Kira: Hey!! I know there's a limit to how much we are allowed to beat each other up. Are you not going to do anything?! -she screams with a worried tone-

Kobe: Yes, and what did I say that limit was? I don't like repeating myself for children that don’t listen.

Kira: Yea! You said till we knock each other out! -she screams angrily-

Kobe: Does he look knocked out to you? -he looks back at Kira waiting for an answer-

Unable to respond, she lowers her head in frustration.

Kira: …

Kenu: Forget that! I can’t just watch thi-

Kenu stops in sudden shock of the feeling, a pressure looming over him. Kobe looks upon Kenu with a grim expression.

Kobe: Sit down. Stay there, and shut up. We don’t know your condition, so until then, don't be reckless.

Kenu is angered by this, but sits down.

Aiden is kneeling on the ground still in pain. His arm suddenly dissipates into sparks and disappears. He pants rapidly while holding his chest.

Aiden: Damn. I didn’t think it’d be this hard against this guy.

Alco: That’s impressive, his element replaced his severed arm. I wonder how that happened.

Kenu: It happened when we were kids.

Alco: …

It turns black as something appears to him with glowing green eyes and red vertical slit pupils and has a green gem on its forehead.

???: Heh seems like you need some help, brat. -it says mockingly-

Aiden: No I don’t stay out of this!

???: Yea whatever.

Vince: Wow, Seems you’ve lost it. I didn’t think I hit you that hard, but how ever you can get help… I’d accept.

Aiden: Shut the Hell Up Vince.

Vince: Oh yea, didn’t your big sister also need help, Fill In? -he teases with an open smile-

In the duality of the phrase Vince looks down on Aiden as he kneels in pain and is most vulnerable. A sudden slash aimed up towards Vince’s face passed him as he was able to jump back before the blade had taken his head. All that he was able to glimpse was a flash of Aiden’s Thunder clad katana…and a red of blood and rage.

Vince: What th- -he halts in surprise-

A cut suddenly appears on Vinces cheek to his nose. He is annoyed by this, then glares at Aiden. The first thing he sees is Thunder… Thunder that had replaced a lost arm and had taken on a deep red glow within the bright yellow. As he continues up towards his head and sees red streaks across Aiden’s body. Finally he met the eyes that met him, bright green irises and red vertical slit pupils met his own that had taken on a deep orange color. In the moment they only wanted to convey the intentions they had through words.

Vince: Try something like that again, and…

Aiden: Don't dare mention her or…

In sync, the words they say next cause the students all over the field to tremble in fear representing the truth they feel in them.

Vince and Aiden: I’ll kill you…
