I feel like I am the worst person ever for put in an update instead of a chapter. My stress has gone down a lot though fortunately. I'm very sorry that this chapter is shorter than most of my other chapters, but I wanted to update quickly. By the way, Happy Holidays, and Happy New Year! I hope you guys got great stuff instead of coal. xD

Chapter 26

"Nashi vs Misty"

I walked into the room, and I smiled to myself because I was going to win this thing. I have Storm, Molly, Eric, Lorie, and possibly Jared cheering for me. I can't let them down. Though, water will be hard, but she shouldn't have underestimated me. The countdown started, and when it was finished she threw an attack.

"Water dragon claw!", she swiped water at me, and I quickly dodged out of the way.

"Fire dragon iron fist!", I tried to punch her in her gut, but she quickly dodged. It seems she's fast also.

"Water dragon bubbles!", Bubbles?! That's really weird.. I quickly came out of my thoughts when bubbles were heading towards me.

"Fire dragon roar!", I gave a breath of fire towards the bubbles, and they were gone. "I told you it's not impossible!", I yelled to her, and her only response was just her glaring. Does she know me? Why does she not like me? I haven't done anything bad.. I think. She walked up to me and smiled again.

"Let's do a bet!", she said.

"Heh.. No thanks.."

"Are you just afraid of losing?"

"No, I just don't do bets."

"I don't hate you.. Sorry for seeming like I do.. It's friendly. I promise."

"I'll come up with it then. Winner gets to boss the loser around for a day.", I said, and she nodded and shook hands. We aren't exactly friends, but we don't hate each other.. Strange combination.

"Fire dragon roar!", another breath came towards her way, and she wasn't exactly ready so the attack hit her.

"That wasn't even that hot.", it seemed she made a shield of water before the attack actually hit her. She really is fast.

"Water dragon.."

"Fire dragon.."

"ROAR!", we both were battling between our breaths, and we both gave out at the same time panting.

"Time's up", I saw our teacher there trying to stay a bit away from us. Why does the time have to ruin everything?!

Misty and I groan at the same time and glare at her.

"More people need to do their tests.", she explained clearly annoyed. We both nodded our heads and kept glaring at each other. Once we weren't beside Cranky, we began to talk.

"I'm not going to lose next time!", we both yelled at each other.

"Stop copying me!", we both said together again, and I was annoyed.

"Stop it! AGH!"

Storm was walking towards us confused.

"Hey Nash."

"Hey Storm.", I said cheering up.

"I wonder why Ms. Crankypants picked you and Misty together.", he stated.

"STOP CALLING ME THAT NAME!", our teacher yelled at Storm, and he shriveled up like a dried plum.

"I see there's someone else who scares you.", I started laughing while he started throwing protests at me.

"I'm Misty.", Misty introduced herself with innocent eyes.

"I'm Storm."

I saw Molly walking up to us, and she smiled.

"I was looking for you. I'm next, and I'm fighting this girl called Mikan.", she said.

"I know her! She's grumpy to warn you, but she's also nice.", I said.

"How do you know her?", she asked.

"We sometimes sit by each other on the bus."

"Ooo I can't wait!", she smiled.

"Hi, I'm Misty.", Misty introduced herself again.

"Nice to meet you. You did really well against Nashi.", Molly smiled.

[Molly's P.O.V.]

It was my turn. I stepped into the room, and Mikan was there.

"Hi.", I smiled.

"...", she didn't respond. The countdown ended, and I changed into my demon form: Alborak. Because my mom was part demon, I gained some of her power. But also thanks to my dad, I was able to get a special lightning form. I looked at Mikan, and her face remained in frown. I wonder why she's not happy. Maybe she's bored? While I was thinking about this, I saw she threw an attack at me, but I quickly dodged.

I decided to throw one back, "Lightning blast!", I threw a ball of light towards her but got hit. She got back up and seemed to hold her stomach.

"Iron dragon: ROAR", she threw a breath in the whole room, but I couldn't dodge with it everywhere. I got hit with the attack and fell to the ground. I simply got back up though and decided to do another attack.

"Thunder rumble!", flashes of lightning went around the room and hit her, but she stayed in place.

"Iron dragon: Claw!", she sent the attack my way, but I took her leg and twisted it. "Iron dragon: Fist.", she punched my face, and I released her leg.

"Lightning speed!", I sped around the room and sent a kick that made her fly to the other side of the room. She was now laying on the ground and taking deep breaths.

"Time's up. It seems Molly gets the first A out of the whole class.", our teacher came in. I won!

[Nashi's P.O.V.]

I'm really proud of Molly winning. Though, Mikan was also pretty great too. Mikan still had the grumpy expression on her face like always, but that's just her. Molly was smiling like always also. I went to meet up with the pair but paused when I heard Ms. Crankypants.

"That's all for today. We'll be continuing this tomorrow.", thanks to my super ears, I heard her mumble things like, 'I hate people,' and 'Why did Macarov ever so ask me to do this,' but I paid no mind to it. I finally caught up to Molly and Mikan and smiled.

"You guys did a good job.", Mikan just stayed quiet while Molly said, "Thanks."

Misty and I were both in the hallway arguing about our fight.

"Idiot, I was closer to winning! The stupid time must've changed too quickly.", Misty yelled.

"You're wrong moldy face!", I yelled back feeling the anger boiling up inside me.

"When will they stop fighting?", Storm sighed.

"I'm not sure myself.", Molly sighed with him.

"STOP THE DAMN FIGHTING!", Mikan yelled giving Misty and me a deathly stare.

"YOU STOP BUDGING IN!", Misty and I yelled and punched Mikan in the face. Mikan, however, didn't fall. She haves us a more deathly stare and growled.

"Idiots.", her arm turned to metalm and in a flash, I felt my back hit the ground. "Now I repeat, stop fighting. It's annoying.", Mikan marched off mumbling some things that even I couldn't hear.

"Are you two okay?", Molly asked.

"I'm fine.", Misty and I both said.

"STOP COPYING ME!", we yelled. "STOP IT!"

"You guys should stop fighting before Mikan comes back and beats you to a pulp. She even scares me.", Storm said.

"Whatever.", I said.

"So who do you guys think won?", Misty asked.

"It was a tie though.", Molly said.

"Fine, but what about you?", Misty asked Storm. I gave him a look, but he sighed.

"It was a tie. Stop arguing.", Storm said. "Or else I'll go get Mikan."

"Fine..", Misty said.
