Trouble in the tournament
Part 3
The first battle in the second round was a blur. I don't even think I know who battled. All I know was that my mind was still on the fact I had to battle Savannah. Now I was on the mat with her across from me and Yoda to my right. The purple saber in my hand flickered. Her green saber was strong and slick.
"Don't go easy on me!" she ordered. Easy? How could I not go easy on my best friend? I was battling against my earth customs and the Jedi way! Who would win?
Why bowed to Yoda. I spun on my heels to face her. She smiled lightly. We bowed to each other. When we both stood up straight the sparkle in her eyes faded. The happy emotion I loved in her eyes vanished. She was going to kill me! I waited for a moment to see if she would strike first. She did. She came running at me, her saber was scrapping on the ground. I waited and realized I had my mind as clear as I had done with Katie. I also saw she was running at me with confidence. She began to swipe her blade at me. I dodged and ducked. She soon had had enough. She stabbed her saber at my stomach. I leaped back to miss the close call. She smiled.
"Are you just going to play on the safe side for this match?" she snapped. I flipped up. She blinked for a moment then turned around. I stabbed my saber into her stomach as she had tried to do with me. She fell to her knees. Her saber rolled across the floor till the handle hit my heel. She held her stomach and mumbled.
"Surrender?" I asked. She looked up and smiled. She lunged for her saber giving me no time to react. She had sliced my knee. I let out a stifled cry. She smiled and staggered to her feet. I clenched my saber. She came running at me. I blocked for a while but her saber soon met my neck. I wailed a second time. It turned out I was going to lose…sadly I was stubborn. I grasped onto my saber and lunged. It was against my nature but I lunged. I slashed at her. She was reacting fast but she had flash of surprise on her face. I brought my blade crashing down till it collided with her shoulder. She wailed.
"I thought you said don't…go…easy!" I mumbled in her ear. She looked up at me with a glare and as if I was going to kill her. I lifted my saber and readied myself for her attack. The next one to get cut would lose. She dropped her saber and looked at Yoda. She bowed. Yoda and I looked equally surprised.
"I…surrender," she panted. I hesitated but then bowed to her and Yoda.
"Surrendered you have," Yoda stuttered, "winner, you are Lucas."
"My new mater?" Savannah asked. Yoda nodded and looked out at the door.
"Out those doors, your new master be," he nodded. She ran over to the doors and disappeared behind them.
"Third round last battle, you be in," Yoda explained to me. I nodded and walked over to the doors.
