It's Kirito's turn. Also, I am not dead. ~Scarlett
.:Kirito's POV:.
Scarlett and I slowly sat back down, waiting for Blackstar to start asking questions. "So, HOW DID YOU BEAT YOUR GOD?!" he yelled.
"Easy," Scarlett quickly replied. "Your stance was off, so it was easy to knock you off of your feet. Is there anything else you need to ask me or did you just want to find out how I beat you?"
"Who are you people? You're the first to beat me in 20 matches against other peasants," Blackstar said.
"Wait," I quickly said, "fighting's normal at this school?"
"Yeah, fights break out every day," he replied. "There are only two rules. There has to be a teacher there to watch you fight, and you can't kill your opponent. Hey, Scarlett, right? How did you know where I was going to attack?"
"…I heard your footsteps," Scarlett said, looking away from Blackstar for a second. "Hey, Star, what kind of sword was that, and why did black swirly marks appear on your skin?"
"Oh, that?" Tsubaki answered. "That's what we call enchanted sword mode. It is one of my many weapon forms and the black marks on Blackstar's skin was just a part of the soul resonance that always happens with enchanted sword."
"You can transform into more than one weapon?" Scarlett asked. "Kirito can do the same thing but he only has two, the dagger from earlier and a bow."
Blackstar quickly sat up and quickly asked, "You can transform into a bow? I've never heard of someone being able to transform into a weapon like that before."
"Yep," I replied. "I think it is a weapon transformation that only I have because I have never heard about anyone else having it before..." With that statement, Scarlett looked over at me with a questioning look, but thankfully decided not to say anything about it. (*snorts* Of course not. I know when to not call people out on stuff)
"Well, I think we should go Tsubaki, before we get stuck staying here because of the snow," he said, probably in softest voice he has, before standing up and walking to the door.
"Okay," the raven haired girl said, with a look of worry on her face. She got up and followed her meister. She then turned to us and bowed while saying, "I'm sorry for his behavior, he is very self-centered."
"No problem," Scarlett said. "Thanks for coming over."
I looked over at her, wondering if she forgot they invited themselves over. After Tsubaki shut the door, I looked at the clock on the wall. "Hey Scarlett, it's almost 7:00. Why don't you go get ready for bed while I make dinner? I hope ramen is good with you because we have not gone to the store yet," I joked before walking over to the kitchen, Scarlett trailing behind me.
"Why didn't you tell Blackstar the truth about your bow transformation?" she asked.
Trying not to go too far into the subject, I said, "The Star Clan and my family don't have the best of history, and by the way he left, something tells me he knows about our family's history. But why don't you go and get ready for bed, dinner should be done by the time you are finished."
With that, she quickly left, returning right before the timer for diner went off.
"Perfect timing as always," she said, quickly sitting down for dinner while I brought over the food and sat down in the chair right across from her.
"Well today turned out fun. We got into a fight, talked to new people, and then were questioned by the same guy we defeated. Wait a second... how did he know where we lived?"
"Must have followed us," Scarlett answered, an odd look on her face, then went silent again, finishing up her dinner. I stared at her for a second, then shook my head.
Knowing the conversation was over, I quietly grabbed her plate and washed it off before we both walked into our rooms to sleep after the long and weird day.
People. Come on. Please review. We haven't had any reviews yet, and it's starting to bug us.
Thanks for reading!
