Final Grander F.G.

Practice Match

As Negi and I continued our conversation, a voice could be heard from behind us. "Come on boya, you practically begged me to teach you, and you forget our training time? I mean, you are such a useless little kid you know that." Negi looked at her and started to freak out. "Ma-master Evangeline I completely forgot, I am so sorry." I looked at the girl before I decide to attack her, a tall girl with long lime green hair blocked my punch. "Negi, you should watch out that girl is a-"

"Vampire, yeah I am, he already knows that." I stood there looking stupid, until I started to freak out. Negi soon explained his situation to me. "So you are teaching him magic? Wow Didn't know you were still this weak Negi." I laughed allot after hearing all that. "Hay its not something to laugh at Ko-kun." Negi said, I kind of ignored him and kept laughing. Evangeline started to get irritated. "Ok thats enough of the party, we still have allot of training to do." Evangeline grabbed Negi by the collar and started to drag him away. The tall lime green haired girl bowed and fallowed her. "Man Negi, what did you get yourself into?" I rubbed my head and walked away. I wanted to play with him some more, but it seems he was occupied with training. I decided to head up to the mountains to train some myself, it wouldn't be as fun training by myself. I got up to the mountains and found another girl there, she was naked and under the waterfall, she had darken green hair, or brown, it was hard to tell, it was short and she seemed to be showering. As a gentleman I should have left her to her privacy, but as a man, I couldn't look away. Soon a few throwing stars came flying at me, I quickly dodged and jumped back. That girl quickly appeared in front of still naked, but she had a giant shuriken and looked at me, well sort of, her eyes seemed closed and she smiled some. My noes began to bleed, as I started to blush seeing her naked body. "Well, well what do we have here? Judging on your outfit, your part of Mahora public school, am I right?"

"Well yeah, I'm new. My name is Koyo Tahu, but please just call me Ko." She looked at me with a smile. "I'm Nagase, Kaede, nice to meet you." I was sure my face was purple enough to confuse me with a plum, but I had to wonder, why she didn't seem embarrassed being naked around me. "Um Kaede you said, right? Shouldn't you put some cloths on, I mean it should be embarrassing being naked around a boy."

"Normally, you would be right, but because of my teacher, I have been around a boy naked before." I started to looked shocked, as I was wondering what kind of perverted old man, her teacher was. "Well anyways, sorry to disrupt your training, I was just looking for a quite place to train myself." "Well it wont do you any good staying up here right?" She soon jumped off the ledge back to the lake underneath. I walked up to it and also jumped down. She started to put her cloths on, her outfit made her look like a ninja, speaking of which, she had shuriken also, and she threw them with great aim, so she must be a ninja."Hay are you a ninja?" She looked at me smiling. "Who me? Well I dont really know what your talking about." It was obvious she was faking it, but I didn't feel like arguing. I just sat there looking at the water. As I looked at my reflection, I could see a demon were I was standing. I couldn't see myself. I put my right arm up and looked at it. "So how did you get that injury? Or is it even a injury?" She asked me that without any hesitation, I kind of felt as though she didn't care if we were friends or not, but it was whatever to me. "I-I kind of lost it, well I lost my original arm, this is a present I got from a pray of mine I had to kill. My had was completely wrapped in badges, so no one could really tell it wasn't human-ish. "A normal person would be unable to tell if it wasn't really yours." She grabbed my arm and looked at it. "It has a large demon aura, and yet your aura can manage to overcome the demons. So only a person well trained can even see the demon aura. How long did it happen? What kind of demon did it belong to?" I really didn't want to answer those questions, and she really didn't touch to much on the subject when I remained quiet for a bit. "Never-mind, I can tell it must have been painful, I wont force you to tell me." She soon took out a few Kunai knifes. "I will however make a gamble. Seeing as you want to train for a bit, why don't we have a sparing match. Well a practice match actually." I looked at her for a second and nodded, I then got up and put my guard up. "Sure I agree to your terms, but what will be the prize?"

"If I win, you tell me all about that demon arm you got." I looked a little surprised when she asked that. "Alright fine, its a deal." I didn't want a chance to test my skills against a student of Negi's, and from her aura patterns I could tell she was stronger then Negi, for now anyways. I took my book bag off and took out a wooden sword. It was carved out of an old oak tree that grew behind my house, even though it is not as strong as many other trees, this one managed to last a long time for me. My little sister would always water that tree, she also maintained its condition. She really loved that tree, I soon realized I was getting distracted by my memories of my sister, that I almost got hit from her kunai. "Hay Ko-kun, you shouldn't be distracted in the middle of a fight." She said as she started to duplicate. "Hay that's not fair! I cant make clones!" She started to laugh and threw shuriken at me as she charged me, I managed to block the shuriken with my wooden sword, but I couldn't block her kunai strike. I jumped back, in the nick of time, but she managed to cut my shirt. She soon used a smoke bomb to make the field cloudy. The smoke started to affect my senses badly, it was getting harder to breath, harder to see, as my eyes started to water, and I could no longer hear the sounds of the water fall. "You are strong I will admit, but I think its still a bit to early to fight me, Ko-kun." She appeared behind me and put the Kunai to my neck. "This would normally be my win, although, I noticed, you haven't even started to get serious, why is that?" It was surprising that she knew allot about me. "I have a question for you. How is it you know about me? No one here knew about my demon arm, they could all sense a demonic presence from me, but no one could tell it was from my arm. How is it that you know." Her smile soon turned to a small frown. "Its because, I know who that arm originally belonged to." I was surprised to here that she knew the demon who's arm this used to be. She took her kunai away from my neck and stepped back, the smoke began to clear, and it looked as though she was crying. She didn't shed any tears, but I could feel she was hurting inside. I sat down, and apologized for what that demon did to her, I wanted to know what it did to her, but I was getting ready to tell her how I got it first.
