Oce we got back to the room at the school, they told me that my battle versus Leo will start in 5 minutes at a secret location as it will be an all out battle. I was confused since I just got back but agreed to the match.  During the five minutes since there wasn't any time for me to learn about his weaknesses since I never fought him I used my thinking and I thought up of a strategy that can help me win if I am right.  Once we got to the courtyard they told us that no killing moves are allowed and the match will end when someone gives up or we decide that they will die if we let the match go on.  Once we agreed with the rules with took our stances and got prepared for the start.  Once the match started, Leo started using ranged attacks then used his agility to come up close and personal since my shadow isn't a close up ability. I had to open up the distance and use the shadows in the courtyard while looking for anything that I can use to my advantage. While we kept on fighting I knew that the only way to stop Leo is to stop his frontal fire attacks.  Once I got far away enough I concentrated on blocking the sunlight so I can be able to use my power to the max. I had to do this while I was fighting Leo so I had to control his vision by using my shadow to cover up his eyesight so he will be force to remove and while he was doing that I was able to cover up the sunlight in the area and I felt my powers growing stronger. Once he got my shadow off his eyes he didn't know why it was dark so he became frustrated. I took this opportunity and started to hit him why my strongest abilities once I was done with my barrage of attacks he was unfazed, laughing at the attacks before hurling a fire ball at the shadow above us, clearing it from the sky and allowing him to see me.  Once we made eye contact we started fighting but it felt like I was fighting a different person as he was more precise in his attack and honestly felt like I was going to lose before I cleared my head and started to focus. I decided to make a trap that will contain in a strand of shadow. While we were fighting I was luring him to the trap that I created by pouring  some of my shadow to the location. Once we got to the place I jumped up and activated. I looked up and saw Leo contained in the shadow. When I went up to him he yelled out, "I give up". I let go of the strands and we shook hands. Leo then told me that I am good with controlling my shadow, but my hand to hand combat needs work and he said the could train if I wanted to. After our fight I knew that he could really teach me so I agreed.  The most difficult training In my life starts tomorrow!
