Chapter 8: And A Punch!
"Just who the hell are you buddy?" I heard Ronan yell waking me up out of my flashback.
"Look out!" I heard Aisha scream. I turned back towards Ronan to see a fist about to hit me.
'W-woah!' I shouted in my mind as I barely dodged to the left. I took advantage of his momentum as I pulled his fist down with me and twirled him backwards, away from Aisha and back towards the lockers.
"Aargh!" He yelled as he collided with the lockers hard and landed on his butt. The mob gasped at the sight as Ronan sat on his butt dumbfounded at what just happened.
"J-just who the hell is this witch!?" He managed to get out. "Is this another poor sap you bewitched to your side!?"
"What are you talking about!?" She cried. "This is the first time meeting this guy." Figuratively, her words stabbed me right through the heart.
'Aw man...I guess she doesn't remember me...' I thought to myself as tears rolled down my face. 'Oh well, its probably for the best.' I thought to myself as I shook them away as I refocused my attention to Ronan, who had just rose back to his feet. 'Gotta deal with this guy first.'
"Whoever you are, you're dead now!" shouted a fuming Ronan as he rushed towards me. I put up my dukes as I prepared for whatever he had in store for me.
Just then a door shot open, stopping the fight in its tracks. The whole mob gasped as we all turned to see what looked like a small white dog with glasses and complete with a white lab coat and a coffee mug.
"Just what the hell is going on out here huh?!" The dog yelled angrily at the mob.
"Oh wow, it talks?" I said as I pointed to the talking dog."I've never seen that before".
"It?" The dog asked menacingly. "Show some respect for your teacher's boy!" He snapped at me. "The name is professor Grail."
'Oh wow, a dog is a professor?' I thought to myself as he glared at me, Aisha, and Ronan, along with the rest of the mob.
"All right, who was the one who started this?" He demanded from the mob. "If no one fesses up, I'll have the whole lot of y'all in detention!" Almost immediately, the whole mob pointed their fingers at the three of us. I glared at the mob as professor Grail eyed us over angrily.
"Well I'd expect this kind of behavior from her..." he scoffed as his eyes met Aisha's. "But from you Ronan! You know better than that." he scolded him.
"Yeah I know professor…" said Ronan as he crossed his arms and looked to his side. "Even though she started the fight, I should've just walked away."
"She started the fight!?" I shouted out past the bullshit Ronan was spewing. "If I hadn't stepped in who knows what you would've done!"
Stunned, Ronan and the professor both turned and glared at me. "And just who might you be sir?" questioned the dog as he adjusted his glasses, as if adjusting them would help him know who I was. "Hmmm...I've never seen you before...you must be new then?"
"Y-yes that correct. I just transferred in this morning." I replied as I stared straight, or I should say down at him, since he was about the size of my shin.
"Ah I see. So you're new and you're already getting off to a bad start eh?" He said with discontent.
"A bad start!?"I said as my voice elevated. I grit my teeth as I could feel the conclusions about me being formulated in this little dog's mind. "Well I'm sorry, but I couldn't call myself a man and watch that...whatever that was… and not try to stop it!" I bellowed at his remark. Unfortunately, I watched my values landed on deaf ears as he narrowed his eyes at me and frowned.
"Well then Mr..."
"Elsword… Elsword Seigheart" I said finishing his sentence.
"Well then Mr. Seigheart, maybe the afternoon in detention with the heathen will allow you to reflect on whom you choose to associate with in the future." He said in a snarky tone as he handed me and Aisha each a red slip of paper. "Ok everyone, enough gawking here. Get to class before you join the witch and her misfit in detention as well!" With that threat, the mob broke their silence as they all began to scatter off to their respected classes.
'What...the fuck...just happened here?' I asked myself as I just stood there, flabbergasted at the events that just took place. 'Damn sis...' I thought to myself. 'No wonder you cried last night. I mean, you said she might run into some animosity...but I'd never imagine anything like this...' I turned to look at Aisha who looked like she was still coming to terms with the event herself. I folded up the detention slip and put the piece of crap in my pocket as I walked over to her.
"Um… hi there. Are you ok?" I asked her as I held out my hand. She seemed to have snapped out of some deep thought when I asked that question as she looked at me with a confused look before nodding yes and taking my hand.
"Ah yes, thank you..." she replied as I helped her up gently. "And… thank you again… for helping me back there."She said as she dusted off her skirt and tights before grabbing her book bag to face me again. Time seemed to stand still as I was looking at her, looking at me. I noticed a tinge of blush in her cheeks as she looked at me nervously. She was actually just as pretty as the night I rescued her, so I couldn't help but to blush a little bit myself.
"But..." I heard her say as she broke our silence. "W-what are you doing here Crimson?" I cringed at the sound of my alias we created for me that night in the warehouse. "I-I -I mean it's just that I thought after we met that night..." she said as she looked down at her side as she clutched her bag. "I thought that I would never get to see you again...and yet, here you are... saving me again..."
"But... I already told you..." I tried to plead with her, even though she was 100% right. "I'm not this Cri-" I was cut off by something I wasn't prepared for as she suddenly hugged me without warning.
'W-w-w-w-' I stammered in my mind as I tried to process what was happening right now. My lips were moving, as they were in sync with my mind but no words were coming out. My eyes were replaced with two empty white circles as my face matched the color my hair. Time stood still again as the hug lasted for what seemed like an eternity. It was a good thing though that no one was around to see this; who knows what they would do or even say.
"I'm sorry..." she said as she broke the silence. "I'm just so happy that I got to see you again. At least I kept your secret safe.~" As she said that I began to regain consciousness as I let out a small sigh.
'Damn...and I was enjoying this too...' I thought to myself as I returned her hug. I began to feel her warmth as I returned her hug. From her hair on my cheek to the rest of her body, especially her chest, was soft. 'Well I guess it's time for me to re-establish my cover.' I thought to myself as I let out another sigh.
"Well I'm sorry miss...but as much as I love this hug, this is my first time meeting you." I said as I broke the silence.
"What are you talking about Crimson?" She said as she looked up at me with a confused expression on her face. "You were the one who saved me Friday night from those thugs."
"But that's just it..." I replied. "That couldn't have been me because I was in Hamel Friday night."
"R-really?" She asked. I began to feel her grip on my weaken as I presented her with this news.
"Yeah." I replied as I nodded my head yes. "And then I took a plane to Elder on Saturday, so there's no way I could've been this 'crimson' guy you're so fond of." As I watched her as she processed my story. I could hear a glass shattering as bewilderment and embarrassment was beginning to take over her psyche. Her face slowly began to glow bright red as she began to tremble in my arms.
"Um...are you ok?" I asked
"AACK! SORRYLATEGOTTOGOTHANKYOUBYEBYE!" She squealed as she pushed herself out of the hug and fled down the hall. When the dust cleared, all that was left was a few sheets of paper and me, standing there like the cheese on the table.
'Was all of that really necessary?' I asked myself as I a bead of sweat rolled down the side of my face. 'Oh well...I guess I'll see her later.' I thought to myself. 'The day is still young.'
Later That Day After Lunch in the girl's locker room:
"Hahahahaha, I didn't think you were so bold Aisha." laughed Angkor.
"S-shut up!" I yelled at him telepathically. "I thought it was him ok."
"So you hug him?" He snickered again as he teased me in my head. "You must really like him then~"
"N-no...it's just that I never got to properly thank him..." I responded as I thought back to this morning.
"So...you hug him huh?" He reiterated in a mocking tone.
"Yes! I mean no! I mean...I don't know... my body just moved on its own!" I yelled in my mind as my face got bright red. Some girls in the locker room shot me some puzzled looks as they wearily made their way around me. I sighed as a bead of sweat rolled down my face.
"Hehe, you should probably get dressed instead of talking to me you know~" he chuckled as he teased me some more.
"Oh shut up will ya!" I accidently shouted out loud. Thankfully the locker room had cleared out. I sighed a breath of relief as I pulled out my void princess outfit. I glared at it with distaste as I took off my school uniform and slipped on my purple breast piece that barely covered my chest.
'Ugh, why do I have to wear such a horrid outfit?' I groaned in my mind as I slipped on my long purple sleeves that came up to my shoulders. They were then attached to a white collar, almost like one big shoulder mantle. I buttoned up the collar which was rather soft to be honest.
'Because of the contract~' snickered Angkor telepathically. As I slid on my purple mini skirt I locked my light purple belt around my waist as dark straps of purple fabric resembling bat wings dangled along the back of my skirt. I decided to leave my coffee tights on so at least I could cover up my legs a bit more since I have to wear this mini skirt. In all honesty though, the tights went well with the outfit as well as helped with the whole exposed feeling. Unfortunately there was nothing I could add for the top half of my body as I looked down at myself and cringed as my whole torso was exposed in this outfit.
"I wouldn't mind if you didn't make me dress like a whore." I complained.
"Well I never..." scoffed Angkor. "That there what you're wearing miss Aisha is one of my most coveted fashion designs in all of demon world!"
I just scoffed at his statement as I slid my feet into my purple thigh high boots and zipped them up. I reached into my locker and pulled out my staff be locking my locker. My staff, it was long and dark purple and on the tip it had an axe like edge in the shape of a bat looking like angkor himself. I got lost staring at my staff as thought back to this morning.
'So...he came from Hamel... and he got to elder on Saturday...' I thought to myself as I went over what Crisms- I mean that boy said. I still couldn't believe it, even though the facts support his story. 'I guess somewhere deep inside I wanted that boy to be Crimson. At least that way, I'd be able to get to know him better? Wait, what am I thinking?' I asked myself. That sounded a little too desperate, even for me. I sighed as I made my way out of the locker room and over to a spot on the bleachers as Miss Camilla made her way out to the class.
"Good afternoon class." said Camilla as she greeted everyone with a smile. Her eyes met mines on the far end of the bleachers for a few seconds before she gave me a wink. I raised an eyebrow in confusion as she scribbled something in her attendance book. "Well first things first, I just wanna welcome back our dear Aisha from her terrifying ordeal this weekend. "When I heard about it this morning I was shocked." She said as she took a glance at me. I smiled as waved as I felt the very hot glares from the other students on the bleachers.
'Ooh Miss Camilla, please shut up...' I secretly wished in my mind.
"With that being said I'm sure you all are aware of that curfew in effect..." she stated as her audience responded to her with groans and frowns.
'Why did you have to bring that up again camilla?' I complained in my mind as I tried to shrink in my spot.
"Now now settle down everyone. Now in lieu of this, Principal Hoffman also saw it fit for our students to be trained in self defense." She said as she pressed a button causing a greenish yellow sparkling light to shine down on the entire gymnasium engulfing everyone for a few seconds before it dispersed and dissolved into the air .
"So, does this mean..." one boy spoke out happily and asked.
"Yup~" smiled Camilla as she crossed her arms. Most of the boys cheered while most of the girls groaned as the light shone down on us. I looked up as the light dissipated. The light which beamed down us was actually a mixture of nasod technology and magic. The light was actually a form of a barrier, one that could prevent fatal injuries or losses of limbs, especially since so many of us were magicians and swordsmen. This is what allows us to spar each other without killing each other; which is also why fighting outside the gym or sparring arena is against the rules. Good thing too...some of us could cause some serious damage to the school and others.
"Ok everyone, settle down now." said Camilla as she hushed the banter of this sparring class news. "With being said we have a field trip to the shadow forest in a few days so we're gonna be practicing self defense and sparring for most of this week to sharpen up any waning skills. But until then why don't you guys go stretch out on your own for ten minutes or so and form up in the sparring arena."
At that moment, everyone on the bleachers got up and spread out around the gymnasium, bantering and pairing up with each other. I got up myself and pulled on my elbow behind my head as I stretched my back and looked around for any sign of my friends. I noticed Eve in her slick black code nemesis outfit walking over to Rena, who was also in her wind sneaker outfit.
"Hey guys." I called out to them as I scurried over.
"Hi Aisha." smiled Eve as she waved to me. I waved back as I arrived to the group. Rena smiled and greeted me as she turned around.
"So what do you girls wanna do today?" I asked as I looked at them. "You all want to spar?"
"Well... it is sparring class today so I don't see why n-"
"Hiya Eve~" we heard a voice cut her off from behind us. We all looked up to see a boy in white armor and long blonde hair carrying a large white cannon that was the same height as the boy standing up.
"Hehe, well hello there Chung.~" she said with a smile as she held her elbows; her cheeks slightly getting red. "W-what brings you here?" I watched as Chung put on a goofy grin as he scratched the back of his head.
"Well Eve..." another voice interjected. I looked up to see the one called Raven, walking over in his white coat with the fuzzy hood, black pants and sword in tow. He kept his nasod arm, which he got from a freak accident in Altera, in his pocket. I guess he's still self conscious about it. I giggled to myself as Rena lit up and turned to greet him, causing him to frown as he tried to hide what looked like a blush to me. I guess he isn't made out of stone as much as he likes to put on.
*Cough cough* "Um yeah..." said Raven as he cleared his throat. "Anyways, Chung thought it would be a good idea if we practiced together with y'all instead of dodging fan girls...so here we are." His face had a tinge of blush as he nonchalantly spoke. 'Hehe, a likely story.'
"R-right." interjected Chung as he woke up out of his stupor. "So what do you say girls?" I looked at my friends as they both lit up from the request just presented to them.
"Hehe, I guess that would be a yes there ch-" I said before I was cut off by Camilla's whistle.
"Ok everyone, that's enough stretching. Everyone find yourselves a partner and begin one on one sparring. I'll be walking around to make sure no one is slacking off~" barked Camilla as she walked around blowing her whistle.
"Crap so soon?" said Eve as she pouted and stood next to Chung.
"Hahaha" I chuckled as eve and Chung instinctively stood together. I guess you two made your choice huh? They both got red at my observation looked to their sides simultaneously.
'Hehe, cute.' I said in my head as I turned my attention back to Rena. "I guess that's just you and me no-" I stopped mid word when I saw a teary eyed Rena looking at me, then at raven, then back to me again.
"I-I-I..." she stammered as she looked at me with sad puppy dog eyes. "I don't know who to piiiiick!" She wailed as she hugged her bow. I closed my eyes and chuckled as I smiled at her.
"It's ok Rena, go on and enjoy your time with Raven." I said as I waved my hand ok.
"Really? Are you sure it's ok?" She asked with a puzzled look. I nodded yes as her face lit up brightly.
"Go on and enjoy yourself Rena. I'll be fine." I said with a smile.
"Oh, thank you Aisha!" She chirped happily as she gave me a hug. "I'll make it up to you I promise." She said as she backed up, bumping into raven, causing them both to blush. "Really Rena, it's ok. Don't worry about it." I reiterated back to her.
"Well anyways, thanks again Aisha." said Raven as he waved his nasod claw at me. "Sorry about stealing your friends. We'll bring them back safe and sound."
"Yeah." added Chung. "Also, welcome back from your ordeal last weekend. I'm glad you're back." I smiled back at Chung for the kind gesture. It was nice to have someone other than Rena and Eve actually be happy for my safe return.
"Well, you don't have to be all alone Aisha..." Eve butted in as she raised her finger up by her face. "You could come watch us practice and we could tag in each other." I paused for a minute as I processed this in my head.
'Yes, it would be a good idea...but then I would just end up being an awkward fifth wheel... And besides, I couldn't do that to them...could I?' I asked myself. In the end, the answer was no, as I shook my head left to right.
"No, its ok. You guys enjoy~"I said as I playfully shooed them away. "I'm still feeling a bit tired still so I'm just going to practice a few spells on my own." I watched as Eve sighed and frowned but eventually smiled and gave into my wishes.
"Well since you're still feeling tired I guess taking it easy wouldn't be too bad... I guess we'll see you later then Aisha." She said as she waved and with that, the two budding couples walked off to a corner of the gym to start their sparing.
'Hmmm...' I let out a sigh again as I was again alone with my thoughts. 'I wonder what spells I should work on today?' I asked myself as I gathered mana. As I felt my mana growing my clothes began to flap as mana concentrated around me. Ironically however my mind was not as centered as my mana was as my thoughts found its way back to the boy who stepped in and saved me this morning... the boy that wasn't Crimson.
'Crimson or not, what he did back there was pretty sweet...and I...I...just left him there!?' I cried in my mind as rivers of water streamed down my face. 'He must think I really am a horrible witch after that. Damn it girl what were you thinking; running off like that.' I cried as I scolded myself in my mind. 'Well, it's ok Aisha…' I reassured myself. 'If nothing else, the next time I see him I need to thank him properly.'
"Oi! Aisha!" I heard from behind me. I turned around to see an angry Camilla with her arms folded across her chest. "Are you slacking off again?" She looked down at me menacingly.
"Ah-ah-ah..." I stammered as I clutched my staff. 'Shit, I totally forgot to hide when I let the girls run off! I should've taken them up on their offer.'
"It looks like I gotta make an example out of you huh." said Camilla as she cracked her knuckles. I closed my eyes as I cowered in fear of whatever she had in store.
"Oiii! There you are!" I heard a familiar voice call out. I looked up to see that red headed boy again. Camilla raised an eyebrow as the scurried from across the gym to my side.
"What's up newbie?" She asked as she gave him a puzzled look. I couldn't blame her either, for I didn't know why he was here either.
"Please don't be mad at her Miss Camilla." He said as he smiled and scratched the back of his head. Then suddenly out of nowhere, he yanks me by the underarm and pulls me close to him.
"Just play along..." he whispered to me. I was taken quite by surprise as I my mind was still trying to process what was going on.
"You see, Aisha here offered to be my partner but like an idiot, I left my sword in the locker room and with my wonderful sense of direction, it took me quite a bit of time to remember where my locker was. Isn't that right Aisha?" He asked as he turned and looked at me.
"Y-yes..." I managed to get out; my face still flustered from the random grab. "I was wondering what was taking you so long... I guess now I know why. Hahaha…" I smiled as a bead of sweat rolled down my face as I prayed that Miss Camilla bought this farce we just randomly concocted. To my surprise however, Miss Camilla proved to be more brawns that brains as she smiled in acceptance of our story.
"Well I'll let you two get down to practicing then~." She said as she turned and walked away.
"I can't believe that worked." I said as I let out a sigh.
"I know right?" The boy said as he laughed. "I totally pulled that one out of my ass back there." I had to laugh too, I mean, who couldn't tell that story was a work of fiction?
"Hehe I guess we should actually do some sparing huh." said the boy as he looked at me. It was at that moment that I realized that he was still holding my arm. I instantly got red as I realized this fact.
"Ah shit! I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" He yelped as he literally hopped off of my arm after he saw how red I got. I stumbled and fell backwards as it felt as if he literally threw me.
'Geeze...' I grumbled in my head as I rubbed my butt. I looked up to see the boy outstretching his hand to help me up, all while saying "sorry" over and over again. As I looked up at him I noticed how nice his outfit was. He wore black pants which had red flames on the sides. He also wore a red half shirt and a white jacket which came down to the same height of his undershirt. His jacket, which had a red stripe going down the sleeves, was also open; show casing his rather toned stomach. 'He says he's not Crimson... and yet he dresses just like him?' I thought to myself as I felt myself beginning to blush.
"Um are you checking me out?" I heard him say which woke me up from my thoughts. I looked up to see him grinning at me.
"What are you grinning for?" I asked in an annoyed tone. 'Wait a minute...' I thought to myself as something just hit me. 'I'm on the ground...I'm wearing this outfit...and he's standing there...with a goofy grin...on...his...face...!?' I instantly got red as I put the pieces together and realized that my legs were open the whole time! I yelped as I closed my legs and pressed down on my skirt. "You saw didn't you?"
"Me? See your panties?" He asked as he was sweating profusely. "No I didn't see...well I did...but you had tights on...so I couldn't see much... though I did see an alluring coffee and cream view of them but ahhhhh!" He yelped as I tossed a fireball at him which he barely dodged. I grit my teeth I got up and charged some mana. I glared at him as I grit my teeth; my face was flustered as I had little tear beads on the corners of my eyes. "You pervy idiot!" I yelled as I launched three fireballs at him.
"Gyaaaah! Stop it!" He yelped as they collided with him as he fell on his back hard as little embers left over from my attack died out on his clothes.
"I can't believe that you're such a pervert Crimson!" I shouted at him. I pointed my wand at him, ready for another attack as he rolled over and planted his foot on the ground.
"Ugh" he grunted as he wearily stood up to his feet. "I'm not this Crimson guy you keep going on about! My name is Elsword!" He yelled as he sprinted towards me with his sword in hand. I panicked as he leaped slightly and swiped with his sword. Instinctively I activated my mana shield; although it cushioned most of the force from the swing, I soon found out that its initial intention was to stun me, which it did as I was wide open to another attack.
Elsword then capitalized on the moment and slashed at me three times before spinning around and launching me backwards with the broad end of his sword. I gasped as I landed on my back hard. "Sheesh, it was only your panties." He said as he folded his arms. "No reason to try and kill me!"
"Grrrrr, only my panties!?" I growled as I lied on my back. Then without warning, I teleported behind his back instantly. All he could do was drop his jaw in astonishment as I held up my staff and whacked him with it.
"Whaaaa!" He cried as I whacked him two more times before using dark magic to change my staff into a bat hammer resembling Angkor and brought it down over my head to whack and stun Elsword. "Don't you know that a girl's body is sacred!?" I yelled at him again as I capitalized from my hammer attack. I twirled around with my hammer as dark magic fueled my flight as I floated off the ground with my whirlwind attack, whacking Elsword multiple times before launching him backwards. I noticed another chance as he flew to launch another attack so I took it as I landed.
"Lightning Bolt!" I yelled as pointed my staff at Elsword and four bolts of lightning poured out of it striking the pervy fool.
"Zzzzzyaaaaaaah!" He wailed as he was electrocuted in mid air. The attack was so strong that I had to grab hold of my staff with two hands to end it. I looked up to view my handy work as a charbroiled Elsword layed on his back before me. I walked over to him to see two X's for eyes, a nose bleed, and the same goofy grin he wore before I blasted him.
"Eeh?" I gasped in surprise. "A nosebleed...that's new." I said as I folded my arms and looked down at him. "Are you ok?"I asked as I watched him cough up some smoke.
"I saw it all...*cough, cough* and it was...wonderful...*cough*" I heard him mutter out in between coughs.
"W-what?" I asked as I raised an eyebrow at the gibberish he was spewing. 'Saw it all... and it was wonderfu-' I stopped instantly in my thoughts as the pieces of the puzzle came together. 'Seeing it all...the nosebleed...the only thing to see... would be when I was spining... around... in mid...air!?' "Eeeeeeeck!" I screamed as my face turned beet red. "You stupid pervert!" I yelled.
"Hnnnnnngh!" He grunted as I kicked him in his side. I despratly pressed down on my skirt, even though it was already down, in the off chance of it riding up again.
"Blast Bomb!" I heard out of nowhere.
"What the!?" Was all I could get out before a meteor came crashing down near us.
"Gyaaaah!" I wailed as me and Elsword flew off towards the wall from the force of the eruption. "Ow..."I groaned as I opened my eyes weakly. "What in the world was that?" I asked out loud as I brought my hand to my head. "Oww, my head... hey Elsword, are you alright?" I didn't get any response. "Elsword?" I turned to see the redhead lying on his back. He wasn't moving as his eyes were closed and his teeth were slightly grit. "Elsword!?"
"Lunatic Force!" I heard someone shout again. I looked up to see a ball of ice flying towards us.
"Aaaah!" I screamed as I unconsciously lunged at Elsword and just barely teleported us to safety as the ice ball landed where we layed. I turned to see the ice ball erupt as several ice spikes jutted out from its center. "What the hell..." I mumbled as the ice dissolved into small ice particles. "Come on Elsword, we need to go, now!" I said as I tried to shake him awake. I studied his face but there was no change from before. I suddenly felt some warm liquid on my hands as I was checking him out.
"Is that...blood?" I said to myself as I checked my hand. I gasped as my fingers were damp with red liquid. 'It is blood...' I thought to myself as a bead of sweat rolled down my face; my eyebrows wrinkled as I studied his head to notice a trickle of blood rolling down his forehead. 'And he's unconscious as well... this is bad...' I grit my teeth as I wracked my brain trying to figure out what to do. At a loss for answers, I turned around to face our unknown assailant.
"What the hell is wrong with you!?" I cried out as I tried to make out who had attacked us. "You could've killed us you know! Elsword is bleeding now and he's even unconscious! If I hadn't teleported us to safety..."
"Then you'd both be unconscious hmm?" Responded our assailant as he walked over. "Well for a new minion witch, he wasn't really made of much brawn now was he eh?"
'Minion? Witch?' I asked myself as the assailant stepped out of the dust and ice crystals to reveal themselves. Surprise quickly turned to anger as I realized who they were, as if witch wasn't enough of a hint. I grit my teeth as I growled in fury as I picked up my staff and stood up. "What the hell is your problem Ronan!?" I shouted at him. "You could've killed us!"
"Well unfortunately I can't kill you in here..." he said smugly as he lifted his hands as he gestured them around pointing to the area around us. "But, with enough effort I could put you out of commission, at least for a little while."
"Why would you go so far to hurt me huh Ronan!?" I cried out to him. "Yes, I know you don't like me, but why drag him into this? He has nothing to do with this so why!?" He chuckled at my question as he shot me a self righteous smirk which burned my soul.
"Don't don't play dumb you heathen. Anyone who associates themselves with a witch is a heretic and thus should be purged as well." He said as he glared at me; his navy blue eyes filled with a look of self righteous authority which just lit a fire in my belly. "If this was anyone's fault, it would be his. He should've known his place and not stuck his nose into where it doesn't belong. I hope after this is over that those other two heretics learn the errors of their ways with his example."
I was utterly outraged at his psychotic reasoning for this outrage as I stomped my foot and clenched my fists as I threw them down at my sides; trembling in fury while I stared down my blue haired adversary.
"You can say what you want about me..." I said as I looked at Elsword unconscious body at my feet. "But... I will not let you...drag innocent people into this!" I shouted at Ronan, who continued to wear a self-righteous smirk. I held up my staff as I pointed my index finger at him. My amethyst eyes began to glow as I glared at him; a purple aura beginning to emanate from my body.
"If you insist on calling me a witch Ronan..." I said as I felt my mana overflow as my desire to beat this monster erupted and a purple aura of mana surrounded me. "Then l might as well become this witch that you fear so much!"
End of chapter~
Digi: let me just tell you everyone that I had a lot of fun writing this chapter.
Everyone but Aisha: oh wow Aisha...did you just go super sayjin?
Aisha: *blushes madly* oh guys
Elsword: Yeah...since you took me out of commission already I guess you have to save the day. Good luck with Ronan though. Something tells me you might not be prepared for this.
Aisha: Well if he's anything like you then he won't be a problem.
Elsword: What's that supposed to mean?
Aisha: exactly as it sounds~
Rena: But who is this Ronan guy though? I've never seen him before in elrios.
Digi: Well I could explain that Rena. To any who didn't already know, I pulled Ronan out of the Grand Chase universe to be one of many antagonists in TCM's universe. Why him you may ask? Well going with what I explained in chapter 7, Ronan is a descendant of the guild leader of the holy order guild, thus inheriting their whacked out notions of right and wrong. I won't spoil too much of that here though that would be revealed in other chapters. As for why I picked him of all characters well I needed a magic swordsman to rival Elsword at school. Another reason is that he gave off a strong sense of justice and order when I play him in grand chase. So I felt he'd fit the part perfectly.
Rena: Well when you put it that way I guess it makes sense
Digi: Mhm. So to all Ronan fans, I'm sorry that I made him a bad guy.
Aisha: Well I'm sure they won't mind Digi.
Digi: Hehe yeah. And now, time for some shout outs to everyone whose kind words helped me get through the completion of this chapter. Especially Sangelvii, *blows a kiss* who helped me out with some advice at the end here.
Eve: Awww Digi, that's sweet.
Digi: *Blushes* Well everyone, will Elsword wake up in time to see the fight between the spell knight and the void princess? Read, review and enjoy until I finish chapter 9 to find out.
Eve: Um Digi, you forgot to describe what Ronan looks like.
Digi: Aye, can't they use google to figure it out? Look at how much I wrote? I'm tired T^T
Eve: *sighs* for everyone who doesn't know what Ronan looks like, please google Grand Chase Ronan Spell Knight. The first link should bring you to a grand chase wiki showing you what he looks like and ect. Thanks for reading *waves*
