Seductress

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

It was a normal day at Riot 6. Signum was walking down the halls when she bumped into Fate. They exchanged a few pleasantries and continued with a well versed conversation, that is until Fate decided to change the topic.

"I wonder, Signum, between you and me who is the better seductress."

"I couldn't be bothered about such things." heat rising to the stoic knight's cheeks.

"Then in that case, I bet that I can seduce any one person here in the shortest amount of time." the blonde proudly proclaimed.

"In that case, why don't you scurry along and do it." she replied, smirking at the lightning mage.

"Are you turning down a challenge, Signum?" smiling deviously, the knight stopped in her tracks.

Signum was never the type of person to turn down a challenge and this was such. She knew that her pride as a knight did not allow her to do such but her pride also would not allow her to deny the fact that it was a challenge and she had to accept, no matter what. Signum pondered this, knowing full well that she was at a disadvantage, not clearly knowing how to do such a thing but it was worth a try. At least it was better than declining, after all, it is a challenge.

"Very well then, I accept your challenge Testarossa. Our devices shall calculate the exact amount of time it takes for us to do so. This will be an honourable and fair challenge right?"

"Of course it will. I'm not the type to cheat." giving the knight a glare.

"Very well. In one hour we shall meet at the park with our results, no later than that. Time starts the moment we find out target." walking off.

"Fine, I'll see to it that I win!" the blonde shouted after her.

'We'll just have to see now won't we, Testarossa.' Signum chuckled to herself.

Signum continued walking down the halls when she bumped into Touya, her friend and colleague from her military days. She wondered what he was doing here.

"Good morning Touya, what brings you here?" she greeted the tall black haired male.

"Just doing Hayate a few favours. About that, I was just on my way to your office. You have the reports on the latest attacks right?" he replied, smiling.

"Yes, of course. If you would." gesturing in the direction of her office.

Touya silently followed her while Signum was busy forming a plan. He was to be her target. All she has to do is ask him this favour and he, being her friend would most probably help her. They entered her office, Signum conviniently locking the door to ensure her privacy. Laevatein had started the timer as soon as it got the feeling that its master wished to begin. Signum walked to her desk and picked up the reports but right before she gave them to him she popped the question.

"Before I give you these, will you do me a favour?" she asked in a rather low tone.

"Sure, if you ask."

"Tell no one and I mean NO ONE about this, agreed?" he nodded his agreement and Signum let out a sigh of relief.

The clock was ticking and Signum knew she was running low on time. She just bluntly walked up to Touya and kissed him square on the lips. He was taken aback but being a man means taking any opportunity that shows itself. Signum wasn't sure how it worked but she knew that the aim of the challenge was to make the target like her. She wrapped her arms around his neck, his hand moving to her waist and down to her thigh. Signum was used to close contact but she was caught off guard by his response and let out a gasp giving him a chance to dart his tongue past her lips. She was losing it. She was supposed to make him like her not the other way around!

Signum disengaged the kiss and stared at Touya, wide eyed.

"You never knew I had a crush on you did you?" causing the knight to blush profusely.

"What's all this about, suddenly kissing me like that?" he continued.

Signum explained as quickly as she could though she didn't know that her close friend was in love with her. Touya understood the situation and by that time Laevatein started beeping, signaling that the hour is up. Signum apologised, gave him the reports and dashed off to meet with the blonde. Touya just watched after her, beaming brightly because he managed to confess his feelings to her. He fell in love with Signum ever since she started talking to him, the lone vampire.

Signum arrived a few minutes later than the alloted time but Fate didn't seem to have been bothered by it. The lightning mage pulled out Bardiche and Signum followed suit by taking out Laevatein.

"Ok, let's see who won. Bardiche." the blonde started.

[Yes, sir. 20 minutes sir.] the device answered.

"Beat that Signum!" the blonde proudly proclaimed.

Signum gave a heavy sigh as Laevatein followed to give the results.

[10 minutes.] Both mages sat in utter shock, jaws hitting the ground hard.

"You said you wouldn't cheat!" the blonde shouted angrily.

"I didn't! Ask Laevatein! He started and stopped the clock...." stopping her protest half way.

"I admit defeat, you are better at this than I." walking off, leaving the blonde dumbfounded.

A realisation hit Signum when she figured how she did it. When Touya confessed, Laevatein had stopped the clock because Signum reached her goal, the target fell in love with her. It was just sheer coincidence that Touya was already in love with the pink knight. In the end, Signum did lose the bet. She claimed she cheated just so that Fate would stop bugging her, but Signum was the real winner because she found out that not only her friend is in love with her but she is in love with him.
