Chapter three: Training day
CHING! CLINK!
The sound of Lexy and Riku's keyblades smacking together echoed off the walls of the empty room they were using for training grounds.
"HA!" Lexy shouted as she jumped over the swing Riku had aimed at her feet and she slashed down twoards his head.
Riku quickly jumped backwards and Lexy landed in a crouch with her keyblade on the floor.
Riku swimped down at her and she quickly rolled away.
She did a cod-kick twoards his face which he quickly ducked under.
He charged at her back with his elbow and managed to strike her. She fell over foreward with the wind knocked out of her.
She rolled onto her back and gasped for breath. "Nice... Hit..."
"You ok?" Riku asked, holding his hand out to her.
"Oh yeah, I just got knocked to the stone ground, I'll be ok in a couple of seconds." She said sarcastically, taking his hand.
He helped her up. "Sorry." He said.
"Don't be sorry, it was a nice shot. I need more training, it's been way to long." She said.
"Yeah... I'm not too good right now either."
"Better than me." Lexy admitted.
"Hey, I just caught you off guard, don't be so hard on yourself."
"I NEED to be hard on myself, or I'll never have the motivation to train anymore."
"Ok ok."
"Look, let's train some more. Mabey somthing a little less rough for now." Lexy said, rubbing her head.
"Ok. Let's work on some magic."
Lexy conjured some heartless. "Moving targets." She said, explaining it to Riku, who had looked confused.
"Ok."
Lexy and Riku began casting a series of spells on the scurrying heartless, to quickly find that they would need a lot more. Lexy conjured as many as they could and they practiced with those.
"Firega!" Lexy yelled, sending a strong jet of fire, hitting a heartless directly.
"Freezga!" Riku shouted, aiming at a heartless but missing. "Darn it."
"Looks like you found your weak point here, where as mine was in the sparring." Lexy said.
"At least now we know what to practice on." Riku said.
"Look, I'm going to conjure a shadow partner to spar with, and you work on some aiming here, ok?" Lexy said.
"Alright. Good luck."
"You too."
Lexy conjured a huge shadow man to fight with. It charged out her automatically and she quickly doged it.
Riku continued with his aiming, with a little avail, untill he heard Lexy scream.
"ACK!!! THIS THING'S GONE CRAZY!!!!"
Riku looked up to see that the shadow had Lexy in it's clutches, and she was struggling to get free.
"HELP!"
"Ack, Lexy!! Uh... Uh..."
"Hurry up Riku, this thing is crushing me!"
Thinking quickly, Riku yelled "FIREGA!" And very wisely, instead of aiming it at the creature, he aimed it to a hunk of cardboard in the room, casting light on the shadow, making him vanish.
Lexy began to fall quickly, heading twoards the stone floor. "RIKUUUUU!!!!"
Riku dashed to the falling Lexy and caught her, just before she hit the ground.
"Thank you! I'm glad you didn't aim the spell at the shadow, that would have burned me too."
"I'm not that dumb, of course I didn't go for the shadow!"
"Thanks Oni-chan. I think I've had enough heart attacks for today..." She fell asleep.
"She's had a hard day..." Riku said as he took her to her room. "Guess she has time for some rest." He layed her in her bed.
