I own nothing except the fanfiction. I also apologise if I get Elena's personality wrong, I haven't ever seen her personality, so I'm making one up for her, gomenasai.
Metal hit metal, Reno was thrown backwards, for the second time in two weeks, he had only just recovered from his previous injury, he didn't need another one.
'Brilliant fighter, you are!' Crystal scoffed.
'You're rubbish, yourself,' Reno spat, standing up.
This comment earned him a second hit from Crystal's stun baton. Reno pushed himself up again, panting, he was determined not to give up, there was no way he was letting a stupid brat like Crystal beat him. Crystal darted forwards, Reno managed to dodge her attack, hitting her with his own baton. Crystal put her hand on the ground and flipped herself onto her feet.
.
'What are they doing?' Elena muttered, looking out of the window, at Reno and Crystal's fight.
Raven walked over and watched for about three seconds, then she darted for the door, cursing the fact that she was on the third floor.
.
'What the hell are you!?' Reno yelled.
'That doesn't concern you,' Crystal said.
Reno had pretty much lost, he had been thrown to the ground about seven times, he didn't get it, he was usually so good at fighting. Crystal was stood over Reno, her baton pointed at his throat, warning him not to try to resume battle.
Craystal turned and walked away, leaving Reno where he was.
'Reno! Are you alright?' Raven asked, as she ran over to him.
Raven held her hand out, Reno sighed and nodded, taking her hand and letting her pull him to his feet.
'She admitted that she's... that she's not...' Reno tried to word what Crystal had just said.
'Not the same as us? Not... human?' Raven asked.
Reno nodded, and told Raven what Crystal had just said to him.
'Why were you two fighting?' Raven asked.
'She challegnged me,' Reno said. 'And I didn't want her to think I was a coward, zo to.'
Raven shook her head, but she was smiling.
'You should have just walked away... zo to,' she said, smiling even more.
.
'Hey! You!' Cloud called, wanting to kick himself for not knowing Raven's name.
'Raven,' Raven said, guessing Cloud's thoughts.
'Raven, right. I just wanted to thank you for helping us in that fight,' Cloud said.
'No problem, Cloud,' Raven said, smiling friendly.
'Huh, how do you know my name? Oh, yeah, I guess one of the Turks told you my name,' Cloud said, answering his own question.
'No, I've known who you are for years,' Raven said.
Cloud was confused, he'd never met Raven in his life... had he? He did recognise something about her, but he didn't remember ever metting her or talking to her, let alone telling her his name.
Raven started to laugh at the confusion on Cloud's face, she shook her head.
'It doesn't matter, like I said, you're welcome,' she said.
Hope you liked it.
