Chapter 12
The clash of two scythes and a Katana filled the air as David and Sara practiced with their weapons. On the other side of the field, a Kusari-gama and a No-Datchi were heard engaged in combat. At a distance, the Ancient One watched the four young warriors. Perhaps these four would be the ones who would show the Fallen Four the truth. Despite the fact that the new Warrior of Spring wasn't going to tell him or anyone else about what happened last night, she was starting to have an affect on Anubis. The monk smiled, both Amy and Anubis had very strong wills and personalities. Maybe fate would allow Anubis to leave Talpa and join the side of the Ronins through his feelings for Amy. The Ancient One knew that Anubis was in denial about his feelings for the new Warrior of Spring, but the monk also knew that Anubis had lived in a world where feelings of love were foreign. The monk smiled, he would have to do a divination to see if the Kami were going to place the red haired, brash, and intelligent Warlord and a silver-eyed wild child who knew how to fight and survive, together. 'Even if they did get together,' the Ancient One thought in a humorous manner, 'I can only imagine what type of children they would have.'
Lunch was called around 12 PM. When everyone sat down to eat, Kento asked, "when will the gymnasts compete?"
"Well, today is Friday," David said, "and the gymnasts don't compete until Monday."
Amy looked at the others, "Do you think we could do something together, just the four of us?"
David smiled, "Sure, I don't see why not."
"That'll be good," Cassie smiled, "a break from the everyday routine of training and competing."
Sara looked at everyone else, "I wouldn't mind doing anything, but I think we should watch out. The Warlords might sneak up on us again."
"Fine," Amy replied, "how does Saturday sound?"
Everyone nodded his or her head in agreement.
David walked to another side of the field to practice alone. He started to practice when he felt an oppressive, spine tingling sensation. David drew his scythes in a defensive position, "Come on out," he said, "I know I'm not alone."
"Perhaps you are more sensitive to psychic feelings than I thought," a voice laughed.
David spun around only to find Dais hanging upside down from a spider web, 'how does he do that?' David wondered.
David went into a defensive stance, "why are you here?" He demanded.
"I've only come to collect what's mine," Dais smirked.
"Then you've got the wrong person," David smiled.
"Let's prove it," Dais smiled as he withdrew his Nunchuka, "let's play a game of skill, shall we?"
David couldn't explain how Dais did it, but soon, David was dodging every Nunchuka blow he could. 'I can't avoid his attacks forever,' he thought, 'I have to fight him sooner or later.'
David kept avoiding the blows, concentrating on pulling his mind together. In a flash, David grabbed the weapon from the Illusion Warlord and began to yank on it. Dais was impressed, very few had the agility this young man had, but this new Warrior of Summer could be very deadly. Before Dais realized what was going on, David did a wrist movement he had learned on the Parallel Bars and was able to yank the Nunchuka out of Dais' hand and onto the ground. Dais looked at David, "you are strong, just as I suspected. Perhaps you will be the one to carry your pathetic team to victory."
David looked shocked, where had that comment come from?
Dais smiled, "I will see you on Monday. Good luck with your training."
With that, Dais teleported away, leaving a very stunned David behind.
