Chi sat down on a bench as her conscience spoke to her.
"Well, you can't blame yourself girl. You made that shot. You helped score the winning point, so what's the use of feeling misery?" The silvery smooth voice told her, then added, "Get up and take a walk! Relax! After all, isn't that the reason you're here? Now go!"
A few hours later, she was just walking around the park, now that the sun was starting to set and the moon was beginning to come out.
As she passed some bushes, she heard a rustling of leaves behind her, and she quickly got into a fighting position. She would use her strongest move, Legendary Spirit, if she had to.
"Who's there?" She said firmly and fiercely, turning around but not quickly enough.
A strong hand clamped over her mouth, preventing any sound from coming through, and an arm pinned her arms to her sides.
"Oh god, who the hellis it at this time of night?" Chi asked herself firmly.
"This is almost too easy," Ash Redfern thought as he watched Chi struggle in his arms. He sensed her fear and panic.
The deal was that if Chi couldn't kick his ass, he'd get to feed on her, but not kill her. However, if Chi did kick his ass, then Skye would help him, after he admitted defeat.
Suddenly, as if he were inside Chi's thoughts, even though he couldn't feel her lips moving, it seemed like she was saying it herself out loud, even though she wasn't.
"Telepathy, she's using telepathy! But she's a human! A vermin! How can she use telepathy?" Ash thought, surprised and dumbfounded.
"Well, I an NOT a vermin, you… lunatic!" Chi thought as she heard the voice inside her head, and at the same time, she prepared to kick his/her ass.
She forced her heel into the person's shin, and thrust her elbow into his side and kicked his shin.
"Ouch! That hurt! You… you hurt me!" Ash yelped in pain and shock as he released Chi and clutched his shin and moaned in pain.
"Well, Redfern, don't you dare mess with me, especially during this time of night!" Chi angrily shouted, pulling out what looked like a wooden stick from her waistband, pulled the stick all the way out, and pointed it at his neck, his throat.
"You mess with me and you'll regret it, lunatic," Chi said in a soft but deadly voice, still pointing the stall at Ash.
She was proud of her fighters' staff, a long fighting stick that doubled as a staff. It was designed so that it could be pulled out very quickly, at any time, and was a mass of several different weapons all at once, but she usually preferred to use it as a staff.
Chi flipped the staff the other way, revealing a sharp end. Only then did Ash realize that she might mean it.
Okay, okay. I surrender. You win the bet, Ash told Skye dryly and telepathically.
