Chapter 3: Rivals Reborn. New Sparks for Old Flames?
Logan admired Liz no doubt. He liked her a lot. She had only gotten cuter over time. Logan wished that he was able to tell her how he really felt about her. It had been so long since he had even seen her face, but he thought about her every day. Ethan held his notepad up to Logan while Patty sat on his lap, cooing over him. It read,
'Logan, I want to spar with Patty and Liz.'
Liz nodded and said,
"Well, this takes me back. We haven't sparred in a very long time."
Patty jumped at the chance to impress her old boyfriend. Kid stood by as they transformed into pistols and fell into his hands. Logan nodded to Ethan and said,
"Let's humor them a bit. Revolver form, please."
Ethan nodded and his body warped into the revolver that had both the heart pendant and the rings hanging from the handle. They were all ready to fight. Logan made the first move, shooting at Kid's chest. He made the first move, shooting at Kid's chest. He expertly dodged the first shot. He jumped over Logan and seven consecutive shots missed Kid's body. Kid landed perfectly and then he said,
"Mortal Sin stance."
His body twisted into his confusing stance. Words carved into Ethan's barrel, it was his own way of communicating in weapon form. Logan smiled,
"Sure thing. I'll do that."
Logan moved his body into his own battle stance. Kid's face went even paler than normal. Only he would know how much trouble he was in. Logan said,
"Divine stance."
Liz and Patty didn't know this "battle stance" but they weren't going give up just yet. Kid had a tear coming from his right eye. The stance was unbelievably asymmetrical and Kid's face went from terrified to furious. His eyes went blank and he was matching every word with a shot,
"Disgusting, disgusting, disgusting, disgusting."
Logan was shooting every shot before it collided with him. Kid was only getting stronger. He screamed out,
"Soul Resonance: Death Cannon."
The two girls turned into something that both Ethan and Logan had never seen. It was a soul resonance after all; they didn't have it before. Logan laughed and said,
"Soul Resonance: Rosa Blanca."
A rose vine sprouted from the back of the silver revolver. It wrapped around Logan's arm and reached up to his shoulder. A white light appeared at the end of the barrel. His hair started to float as his eyes were glowing blue. The white light silently moved out as a gigantic wave, breaking the ground up as it moved along. Kid wasn't able to dodge the attack. His attack wasn't fully charged and the light absorbed him. The blinding scene faded and Kid was lying on the ground with a small bit of smoke billowing out from his chest. Liz and Patty turned back to normal and shook Kid awake. He turned to see the school. One of the candles was completely burned down. Kid let out a little squeak and passed out again. Logan laughed and Ethan ran back to Patty. He scribbled down a quick note,
'We didn't hurt you, did we?'
Patty smiled and said,
"No, we're fine. That was cool. It was all bright and it just, boom."
Logan walked up to Liz and gave her his hand. She blushed and gave her hand to him. He pulled her up and her face was only centimeter away from his. Her face went bright red and she turned away from him. Logan's voice was sweet and kind,
"Are you okay? Nothing broken?"
"No, nothing broken."
"Good, I wouldn't want that. "
He hugged her and she let out a sigh as she returned the hug. Several paper balls kept striking Logan in the back of the head. He turned and said,
"What do you want Ethan? Trying to have a moment here."
His notepad was attacked by his pen until he showed it to Logan. He tapped the pen on the paper. It read,
'We are soooooo late.'
Logan's eye twitched for a few seconds and he said,
"Damn it all!"
Maka laughed and said,
"Don't worry; we are excused from class to show you around. You won't be marked absent."
"Oh. Well that makes sense. Thanks for that."
He turned back to Liz and she smiled a cute smile. Logan blushed as he looked into her sky blue eyes. Maka pulled Liz aside as they were walking into the school,
"Do you like him or something?"
Liz said nothing as her face turned beat red. She walked on.
