Clang! Clang! Clang!

The sound of metal hitting metal reverberated throughout the training gym. Swords. Figures.

"Hey Scarlet! Want to go a round in the ring?" Savanna asks as soon as she sees me.

A crooked smile appears on my face, "Sure, but how about a two-on-one?"

Her eyes become as big as saucers, "Seriously?! I've always wanted to do that!"

Tiger comes bounding over, "Let me guess...three way fight?"

I tilt my head, "Now you wouldn't have been eavesdropping, right?"

Tiger rolls her eyes, "Oh never."

We head into the ring, "Okay girls, let's do this." We count down from five to zero.

Then the bell sounds.

Wiping off the sweat on the back of my neck, I tighten my ponytail. Dominic is using the punching bag to my left and Savanna is sparring with Tiger.

The fight had gone well and of course it ended in a tie.

Throwing my towel over my shoulder, I head out of the gym.

As soon as I stepped into the house, the intruder alarms went off. Like the second I did...

"It's the Water League!"

Damn it. I take off toward the front door, my feet barely touching the ground as I skidded around every corner.

I stop at the entrance to the dining hall, where I hear the sounds of metal of hitting metal.

"So we meet again, Scarlet."

Turning around and facing the woman of the Water League, I recognize her instantly. "Victoria Swan. How great to see you."

"Yeah, right. How's your boyfriend? Still a mobster?" She asks, reaching for her own swords at her waist.

I frown, "What business is it of yours?"

She smiles wolfishly, "Always my business to know who to kill. Especially to get to my enemies."

"You're a bitch."

She scoffs, "Look in a mirror."

"Right back at you. Talk about a screw up."

She growls-literally- and lunges at me, but I jump out of the way and begin to run down the way I came.

I needed a weapon and fast!

Heading back toward the back of the house, I freeze in my tracks as I watch as a tall dark haired man holds up Savanna by her neck.

"Soryu?"
