"Shining Arrow!" Dawn exclaimed, Arme dodged hastily, but it still hit her a bit. Blood dripped down her newly opened wound.
Three was down, and three more enemies for Arme. And this one is a bit more powerful than the last one,
"Land scamper!" Arme was thrown in the air. The match wasn't looking good for her either. This girl wields a powerful staff -- and everyone knew it's faster and stronger to channel using a staff than bare hands.
"Take this!" Dawn kicked her and then grabbed her foot and punched her. She was almost hit when Arme took the opportunity and held her wrist. She made a spinning motion, making them both hit the ground, and Arme to break free.
While the girl was still lying on the ground, she casted a spell -- "Fire bolt!" And it came straightly to the girl, Arme leaped in the air and then shove her with a Land Scamper. But she still isn't finished, when she landed to the floor, she froze her enemy with the Skill, Ice trap. Taking the last move, she used fire storm.
".... The new girl won..." the blue haired girl muttered, "Yay! I'm next?" Ryo nodded, "Yay!" She went inside the field, "I'm Elena!"
"Hey!" Arme smiled a bit, panting.
"Ready... Set... Go!" Ryo exclaimed,
"Hiya..! Meteor!" Elena smiled cockily -- she was waiting for this moment, to prove this jolly girl wrong.
And because the other mage was already panting, it was unavoidable that she got hit.
"Arme! Please!" Saku pleaded. And as soon as the smoke cleared, the violet haired girl was lying motionless on the floor. "Hah! I won with one hit!"
"No..." The crimson eyed girl started sobbing... After some while... "I'm so cute~!" Elena stirred a bit upon hearing some words... A tangle of Violet popped behind Elena,
"What the?" Since Elena was only an inch taller than Arme, Arme sat behind her back. "Get off, of me!"
"What?" Arme teased, "You couldn't possibly think you'll kill me with just one attack!"
They heard Elena huffed, "Why don't you just get off of me!"
"Well... Since I don't know a lot about white magic, I just have to do a skill called Penta Striker and trick everyone of thinking I passed out. And it worked." The Mages awed in her fast thinking, "And while I'm at a dimension, I healed myself." That's when they realized her bruises and cuts we're healed.
"You're unfair!" Elena whined. "You're healing."
"Well... " Arme trailed off, "It's also unfair if I can't use all of my skills against five tops. Not to mention I'm only an F."
"YOU'RE ONLY AN F?" Everyone exclaimed in shock, excluding Saku.
"Ehehehe..." Arme smiled sheepishly, "Yeah."
"But that's! That's!" Elena sighed, she rolled, and caused Arme to get out of balance, then, while lying on the ground, she used the skill Land Scamper to shove the violet haired girl away. "Rgh!" Arme stirred but regained her posture in mid-air. Now it's time to show off with her close combat skills she learned from Kaze.
"Hiyaaaa!" Arme exclaimed and went straight towards the blue haired mage. Now she believes rankings don't always define one's skill. She charged quickly at her, though knowing she won't reach the moment since Elena was casting a skill called Saver. She smiled a cocky smile and teleported behind the blue haired mage; "Kya!" Arme tapped her back, this caused the blue haired girl to be countered, and fall miserably to the ground, "Game over!" Arme muttered, "It- it's not!" Elena mumbled blood was trickling down her left arm, "Shining arrow!" Arme yelled.
"ELENA!" Dawn exclaimed. Everyone's eye widened as a streak of light trusted through Elena's chest. And Saku even caught the different -- weird, scary... glint in Arme's eyes. What was that exactly? Well whatever that was, she chose to ignore it.
"You freak!" was the next thing Saku heard, upon hearing those words, she was instantly brought back to earth. "Dawn... No." Ryo muttered lowly, "No, let me be Ryo! This girl killed Elena--" that's when a tok landed at Dawn's head, "I'm not dead." Elena muttered, "It's just..." slowly the arrow vanished, as if it never existed. I'm feeling dizzy." Dawn turned pink and answered, "Oh." looking away. At this statement, Dawn helped the blue haired girl out of the field.
And it was time.
Arme stared at her opponent -- the eldest, the tallest and the strongest. "I'm surprised you made it this far..."
Arme sighed but then smiled, "Heh. What do you expect, huh?"
Ryo laughed, "I thought Dawn and Elena would end you're life..."
"Eh?" Arme paused and then smirked, "You think I'm that low senpai?"
Again, Ryo snickered, but as he slow down, his eyes ended in a smirk, "Lower than that."
"Then I guess I'ma beat chu off." Arme glared, "Hiyaaa!" she charged towards him carelessly, her senpai brought out a lamp and blocked her incoming attack. Arme dodged swiftly though her cheek was cut by the lamp's edge. She, then, teleported behind Ryo, and charged a fire bolt. Ryo turned around and exclaimed, "Sylph!" this attracted Arme when a green mist appeared from the lamp and a gust of wind sent her crashing through the wall.
Arme hissed some words while standing up, it wasn't ordinary gust, there were blades along with it. She stared at her senpai as he walked towards her, "I'm a warlock, figures?"
Arme grinned cockily, "Yeah..." actually I don't and I don't care, she added in her mind. As she stood straightly, she teleported behind Ryo, this caused the guy to turn around, and then teleported behind him again, that's when she used her favorite skill, firestorm. It summoned pillars of lava, and the only thing she heard was "Fire Ring!" And then when the smoke cleared, all she heard was someone shouting blizzard. Soon enough, she was covered with ice. 'Damnit, what's happening with me!'
"Do your best Ryo-kun!" Anna exclaimed, "Go Ryo!" Ashley muttered. The next thing she felt was fire melting the ice in her tummy, and then extreme heat, she was gonna scream when the ice broke and she crashed down to the floor. "Damn... it." Arme muttered, stirring a bit as she stood up, "Fire bolt!" she heard and tried her best to dodge, and she did weakly.
"I never knew you're this weak." Ryo muttered, "I thought you're gonna lead and change us. But the problem is, how can you lead if you can't even beat the current leader?"
"Shut up." Arme started to hiss.
"My, my. Angry now? Where's Ms. I'm gonna change you all huh?" Ryo laughed, soon everyone snickered excluding Saku, she was damn worried, but she knew.... Somehow, she'll win. She trusts Arme. She trusts her so much... Suddenly, Arme faded in bare wind, this caused Ryo to stop laughing and to pour heavy attention to the mist, this caught everyone's attention as well. "Uh..." Ryo stirred up.
Hit, "Ack!" Ryo exclaimed as he fall down, another hit, as he fell miserably at the floor, "You're unfair! You're using some skill to be invisible."
"That hurts Senpai." they heard Arme say, "Ahh!" Saku exclaimed realizing the girl was sitting next to her. She stood up and charged straightly towards the guy with his guard down, he, of course stood up but then he heard Arme yell, "Shining arrow!" Ryo blocked her attack, and Arme saw a point, she turned and tapped Ryo "Fire bolt!" she exclaimed as fire appeared on her palms, "What the?" Now it was his turn to be sent flying through the wall. Arme grinned. And then she was the one to walk towards him, "No-" she was to speak but her opponent disappeared, turning around, she saw none. "What the?" He was still behind her. "Big bomb!" she suddenly heard, and then a loud explosion echoed through the halls.
When the smoke cleared, Arme was lying on the floor,
"Now you're that low?" Ryo asked and then snickered, "I thought you we're-" his eyes widened as Arme vanished again. The next thing they heard was, "Air Blast!"
"What the?"Ryo's eye continued to widen as well as the others...
[x x]
"So... You're our new, ouch! Hey!" Ashley muttered as her cuts we're being treated by Anna.
"Heheh..." Arme smiled, "No." Ryo, Elena and Dawn perked up. "Ryo still is."
"What are you doing?" Dawn asked and then Elena and Arme turned to her "Everyone in here wanted to be the lead. So what are you doing?"
"I don't know." Arme smiled, "It's better that way. And I suppose, you guys also don't want me to lead."
"Are you sure you're fine Arme? I mean you got a lot of wounds." Saku smiled, Arme shook her head in return, so the all the girl did was to hug her, "You we're great!"
"Aww. Thanks!" Arme smiled and then she turned back to Dawn and Ryo, "Guys, please..." the two turned to her with a questioning look, "Let me re decorate this room!" Arme pleaded. Dawn stared at Ryo, who stared back and then both stared at Elena, and then everyone started laughing. Arme tilted her head and said, "What?" Arme pouted, "What did I said wrong?"
"Nothing..." Ryo slowly calmed down, "You can go back to your room now, Chibisuke!" He smiled... "As the lead I'll think about it."
"What?" Arme whined, "But I beat you and you lost!"
"One more thing." Ryo added, Arme turned to her, "Back there... The last attack." Dawn stirred up a bit, "You're already a battle mage?"
"OMG What?" Anna and Saku exclaimed, "So coool!"
"Well... About that." Arme sighed, as her eyes narrowed a bit, "Yes, but no."
"What do you mean?" Dawn asked,
"I did the damage, but the only skill I can do in Battle Mage job is Black Magic skills..." Arme sighed,
"So you're already an Alchemist and warlock?" Anna and Saku's eye sparkled.
"Uhh..." Arme trailed off, "Sorry but... What's an Alchemist and a Warlock? Hehe... Sorry I lied senpai."
"WHAT?" they all exclaimed excluding Arme,
"YOU MEAN YOU DON'T KNOW?" Saku exclaimed.
"Hehehe..." Arme muttered, "Seriously?"
"Well..." Ryo sighed, "Alchemist is our second job and Warlock for the third, if you can wield a battle staff then I suppose you can wield the other two."
"Ohh..."
Ding Dong Dung~!
"Okay that's the bell," staring at their clock it was already past five.
"I suggest you two should go to your rooms. We'll take over the cleaning part." Ryo smiled, the rest then stood up, "But!" Arme questioned.
"No buts young lady!" Saku exclaimed and dragged her, "Noooo!"
"See you tomorrow Ryo-senpai!" Saku smiled.
[x x]
Along the dormitory halls...
"So... What's your room number?" Saku asked the quiet little mage standing next to her.
"I don't know." she answered lowly. Saku raised an eyebrow, "What's wrong, does anything hurt?"
Arme turned to her and smiled, "No... Nothing hurts... I'm sorry for making you worry."
Saku smiled, "If you say so! So I am... Room 37."
"Bish~ Hahaha!" They heard one spoke as it wave her hand infront of Arme, this caused Army and Saku to look back and realized that it was one of the cheerleaders wearing a short skirt, a tube and a high heels. Saku gave her a look as Arme ignored her,
And they both walked their way without any word.
[x x]
After a while...
"Okay Arme! I'm here." Saku exclaimed as they both stopped in front of a pink colored door.
"Okay..." Arme smiled. Saku giggled and then said, "See you tomorrow Captain Arme!"
Arme stick her tongue out, playfully, "Whatever!"
"Yeah!" Saku smiled and then her face turned serious, "Arme..." this caught Arme, "I'm sorry for... Acting... You know. I've been holding you back... And I underestimated you. I'm sorry 'bout that."
Arme smiled, "It's okay."
"But I know you're still not the girl."
"Hey!" Arme exclaimed, "Why?"
"Well... You know." Saku winked.
"You!" at this playful smile, Saku closed the door and left the violet haired Mage alone. "Hey!" Soon enough, when she was brought back to earth and realized she was still on the halls... Her eyes narrowed. 'Dear Kami-sama.' she thought dryly. 'I found another friend in my first day. I wonder how she'll die.' she smiled bitterly as a person bump into her,
"Uh, hey, sorry." looking up, she realized who it was.
"Oh... Cute little devil girl." what a long and stupid nickname. Arme's eye narrowed at this, "What do you want?"
"I don't know. Maybe we could hang up?" he pinned Arme to the wall,
He was a bit cute -- that was undeniable. But she wasn't use to this kind of things. Realizing that she didn't knew what to do, she avoided his gaze. "C'mon, I know you want to." he placed his spare hand at Arme's chin, and then forcedly turned her gaze to him. "So..."
"Oi." they we're both alerted by the sound, they quickly turned to the voice. "Let her go, Kawaki."
A grinned crept on this 'Kawaki's' face. "Acting like a hero again, aren't we?"
"Lass!" Arme was able to escape due to Kawaki's distraction, and then she hid herself behind Lass.
"C'mon, she's just a mere commoner, let me have her, hero." He grinned mischievously.
At this, Lass stared at Arme and then back at the guy. Arme sighed, and then stared at Naoki, 'I look so stupid,' she thought bitterly.
"Okay, fine. Here."
"N-no! Please!"
Arme shook her thought, 'No. Please don't...'
"Why should I?" this caught Arme and Naoki,
Naoki's eye narrowed, "And why shouldn't you punk? I own her."
Lass then smirked, "No you don't, I do." and then he turned to Arme, "Right?" at this, Arme quickly nodded, and soon as he received an answer, he gazed back at the raven haired guy.
"Now, I don't want to see or even hear you messing around with her. Got that?" Lass said straightly.
Naoki hissed, "Bastard." after that, he walked away.
".... It's okay now." Lass sighed deeply.
"Uh... hehehe..." Arme sighed as well.
"You shouldn't be wandering along the dormitories, during curfew and especially when you're alone." Lass muttered disappointingly.
"B-but!" Arme questioned, though Lass beat her to it. "What're you gonna say? You can take care of yourself?"
Arme avoided his gaze, and at this he sighed, "C'mon. Stop being so selfish. Even if you can take care of yourself, you shouldn't be wandering alone. Imagine what would happen if I wasn't able to arrive earlier than this."
Arme sighed and then pouted, "Okay."
"I don't need you're okay. I want to hear you promise." Lass stared at her,
Soon enough -- Azure met Amethyst, "Promise."
[x x]
Arme plopped down the couch -- "Puah... What a day."
Another one plopped down the couch, "Man..."
Arme grinned and stared at him, "Worn out?"
He sighed and then closed his eyes, "Yeah... Some students joined today, and since I hold the highest ranking in Thief class, I was forced to train them, and of course, also train myself."
"Hahaha... Sure then," Arme stood up happily,
"What about you? How's your first day at Job Class?"
Arme smiled winked and then made a peace sign, "I beat the tops."
At that -- Lass gave this weird look, "Oh my, you what?" Arme raised a brow, "What?"
The next thing she knew was... Lass was laughing her ass off.
"What?" Arme raised her voice a bit,
No response though, Lass was still busy laughing.
"HEY!" Arme yelled, and then she frustratedly burst out, "How come everyone underestimates mehh?"
Lass suddenly stopped -- Arme stared back at him though. "Uhh..." Awkward. Totally, Awkward.
"Your face is pink." And she was left dumbfounded at the statement.
"Bastard!" Arme exclaimed and huffed, "Stop it!" Arme exclaimed frustratedly, trying her best to stop the crazy laughing guy.
