~Chapter 25: Elsa VS Elsword~

Elsword had skipped class until it was time for his talent class. Elsword didn't waste any time summoning his Cornwell and getting his blade. The moment he kicked the doors open, the training area was filled with students from the Advanced Technology and Swordsmanship. Chung was staring at Elsword with a grin on his face while Eve paid no attention as she continuously type on her transparent screen.

She slipped the two test tubes of Elsword and Elsa's blood samples in and begin to test out her calculations. The results came out as she expected, however, she needed to make it more accurate. She put on pink shaded sunglasses with blue lines outlining it, and she pressed on the frames of the glasses and inside, there were multiple transparent screens with data. She connected it with her main screen with the test tubes and the data were being transferred.

'Appearances... Very similar. Common characteristics that most siblings have. DNA.. 35%.. Elsword.. Human.. Elsa.. Non-human... Chances of them being siblings are now lowered to... 29%. Chances of them not being siblings increased from 61% to 71%...'

Eve narrowed her eyes as she looked up towards Elsa. She waved her hand and the transparent screens all vanished and she took off the glasses. Chung sneaked his arms around her petite waist and pulled her towards him. Eve laid against Chung's warm chest and began to think of Elsa.

'Elsa... Is not a human.. That girl.. She's not the real Elsa. Is she... A clone..? In order to create a clone, it's necessary to have the real thing. Blood, hair, and... They'll need to watch the real thing closely, and copy it into the clone. And the clone would be exactly as the original, however... The memories from the original also needs to be copied. Elsa... She doesn't have any memories of Elsword... Unless...'

"Eve...? What's wrong? Don't push yourself too hard. You can think about things later, just rest."

"Don't worry. I'm fine..."

Eve smiled at Chung and kissed his cheek softly and biting it. Elsword sighed and sat next to them, staring at Eve for a moment. Raven was swinging his blade around, working on how to concentrate more on his speed and increase it even more. The moment he saw Elsa, Elsa seemed emotionless for a moment, like a puppet. Raven rubbed his eyes and looked at Elsa again, and Elsa was smiling with Rena.

'That's strange... I was sure that Elsa seemed like a controlled puppet. Maybe I've been focusing on too much stuff. Rena.. Now that I think about it.. While I was battling her, she was different. She also said that she lost her sanity temporarily in the past that led to her betrayal.. I'm confused... I'm causing her and myself pain.. I don't get it..'

Elsword stared at his blade for a moment before opening his mouth and grabbed Chung and Eve's attention.

"Eve... I want you to help me."

"What is it?"

"Find out what happened to Elsa. I want to know why she doesn't remember me. Please..."

Eve was about to tell him of her discovery on Elsa, however, she hesitated. Her calculations could be wrong and not precise. She stayed silent and nodded her head, willing to help Elsword. Elsword's eyes widened a few centimeters before he genuinely smiled at Eve.

"Thank you.."

"You're welcome."

Chung smiled softly as Eve agreed to help Elsword. Elsword was becoming their friend. Although... They're getting a bit too close to his liking. Chung pouted slightly and stared at Elsword with a small hint of jealousy. Elsword noticed immediately and decided to be blunt about it.

"I don't like Eve. I'm only interested in my blade. So don't get too jealous. And... I guess you could say... That Eve is a... Comrade. You too, Chung."

Chung blushed faintly and hid himself against Eve's neck and Eve covered her mouth to prevent herself from laughing. Chung tightened his embrace with his faint blush. It was amusing to see Chung act like that.

"Time for a little practice! Let's have our transfer student, Elsa of the Red Knights go against.. Elsword of the Red Knights."

Elsword's eyes immediately darkened and his expressions grew serious. He stood up and grabbed his blade and Cornwell. The crowd noticed Elsword and immediately stepped back. Elsa noticed him and got ready. Elsword pushed down on his heels and in a flash, he slashed thrice with his Cornwell with the last slash sending out a crescent wave.

"Crescent Cut!"

"Double Slash."

Elsa's got snipped slightly by Crescent Cut and she immediately countered the attack. She slashed down towards Elsword. Elsword was paralyzed for a moment and Elsa charged her sword and sliced down, creating a meteor like attack. Elsa's eyes narrowed as she smirked lightly. She raised her blade and began to spin around Elsword, slashing him continuously.

"Windmill! Armageddon Blade!"

As soon as she stopped spinning, she charged up on her blade, a red orange aura surrounding her blade. Her blade was soon transcended and Elsword was pushed back. All eyes were on the sparring Red Knights. They were surprised to see Elsword being pushed back so easily. Elsword easily summoned an independent blade behind him.

"Phantom Sword! Maelstrom Rage!"

Elsword rushed up to Elsa, dealing multiple damage to Elsa along with the additional damage from Phantom Sword. Elsa was pushed back and Elsword took a chance and threw a Cornwell. The Cornwell erupt into a frenzied storm of Cornwells, pulling Elsa into the storm and pierced her. As soon as the frenzied storm of the Cornwells ended, Elsword rushed up to her and slashed a black hole with his Cornwell. Elsa was locked in one place before Elsword slashed across her.

"Final Strike!"

"Final Strike!"

Elsa smirked and dodged the black hole easily and pushed on her heels. She leaped up and released her blade's force. The wind soon gathered together and formed a whirlwind. It gathered the dirt and sand altogether. The sandstorm was formed and continously damaged Elsword, and blinded him temporarily.

"Sandstorm!"

With his vision gone, Elsa dashed up to him and spun around with her blade in hand, continuously damaging him once again.

"Windmill! Elsword, you need to work on that final strike of yours. Anyways... It was nice sparring with you. Come on."

"Bleh! I don't care. I'll get stronger than you one day! Get ready!"

Elsword didn't hold back in his slash as Elsa was flung away. Elsword stood in silence at Elsa as he clutched onto his blade tightly until there was a small trail of blood.

'Elsa...'

~Author's Note~

I just got a new idea for a new Chung x Eve story~ :3 However.. I won't upload the story yet. Since I need to finish this one. :3 And.. I'm pretty excited now. XD I just hope that the new story I have in mind won't bore anyone. XP

Here are my replies to my lovely reviewers~

JiroBuster976: Elsword is always interesting. XD He has this aura around him that gives off a mysterious feeling in a way. Elsword x Aisha will be coming soon. Eventually. XD

BIAxBiA: :3 Well, luckily, you don't have to wait for very long. Since, I'll be updating daily, but.. Not sure when Spring Break is over.. Since, homework will be killing me. XP

Kat Neko983: Aye... i'm also worried. XD Elsword is having a storm. Hmm... Is that even the right phrase for this? XD

The-Great-Me-sama: Yes... Poor them. XP Well, the guys and Aisha are the ones who can't double jump like Rena and Eve~ :D I was so happy when Eve glided through the whole thing. And.. It's not cheap. XD It's just awesome. :3 On Chung, all you need to do is time his jump, and blast off. XD

Hospes: :3 Glad you like it. And... I wonder why Elsa doesn't remember Elsword... Hmm.. We'll need Eve to figure that out. XD True, but Elsword is too gentle to slap Elsa. He's back to cold boy mode, but he'll be fine eventually. After all, he warmed up to Eve and Chung. Aisha just needs to do her finishing touch. XD

RubyCrusade: Yes.. Two Elsas.. Hmm.. XD I suddenly got the idea of having two Elsas after I was rewatching Bleach and Fairy Tail.. :( *cries* Bleach ended, and.. Fairy Tail is on hiatus. o; And.. That's not horrible yet. XD Well, I'm sure Elsa would be willing to work with you.

Yumi-San Angel: Aye.. Elsword seems to have a lot of pride. And having too much pride is sometimes not a good thing.

Thanks for reading!
