Final Grander F.G.
Give it up?
I walked around town for a bit looking at my demon arm. I then remembered what Mona said to me. If I give up my arm, my source of power, I can bring dad back. The question is, is it worth it, to have my father back? I balled my hand into a fist, and soon walked pass a book store. I'm not normally interested in books, but the store had a strange aura. I walked inside, and noticed it was completely empty, it didn't seem to surpise me much. "Wow didn't know I had a customer." I looked to my right to see a guy leaning back in a chair, with his feet on the table and a magzine on his face. How could he see me, if that thing was on his face, there was no bell on the door, and the place looked mostly deserted. "Who are you?" The guy smiled some, he was wearing black shoes, with black pants, and a black jacket, that was unbutton, and a white tee shirt that was tucked inside his pants. He took the book of his head, and I could see a moon scar on his right eye, his eyes were red, and his hair was pushed back, and there was a small tail in the back of his head. I could sense his aura, but it was mixed in with the book stores. "The name is Mark Frey, try to remember it. If your looking for the bathroom, its in back. I can tell your not one who likes books, so use it and go." The guy sounded a bit cocky, he then put the book back on his face and went back to sleep. "Oh and before I forget, because of that demon arm of yours, this place may start to hurt you if you stay to long. Just a heads up." I looked a bit confused by that statement he made, soon a surge of energy went threw my body, and I fell to my knees, I held my arm in pain, and struggled to get out. "Well I tried to worn ya, this place was created by a moon god, so demons dont tend to stay around here so long." I got out and got up, out of breath, and still in shock from the pain. "Thanks for stopping by, please come again." I looked at the guy, and thought to myself, he is kind of a dick. He took the book of his face and looked at the door, he then got up, and walked outside and he started to fallow me. It was hard for me to sense his aura, he seemed to hide it well, if he was an assassin I would be dead right now. When we got to an open field I noticed him. "Why are you fallowing me?"
"Why, I don't know why, you seem interesting, I don't normally see a human who is a half demon. Normally a see humans that were born a half demon, but you, your a regular half demon, jest because of that arm of yours. It's not really yours is it." I grabbed by sword, but I was a bit slow, as he already had a knife to my neck. He was fast, but I wondered why he didn't kill me right then and there. "I see I am faster then you, well how about it, want to fight with me."
"Why? What will I gain if I fight a pointless fight with you?" Mark looked at me with blood in his eyes, he looked really mad at that second. "Pointless? There is no such thing as a pointless fight!" He kicked me and launched me away from him. He then charged me and stabbed me in the shoulder, I stumbled back and fell to my knees. I held my shoulder, and looked at the guy. "Ok how about this for a reason, your fighting for your life." He charged me again, this time I blocked his attacks, but he was quick, and he started to push me back with each strike. It was hard to tell he was human, I made a vow to never kill a human, I couldn't even hurt him. He kicked me in the face and I hit the ground hard, he lifted his foot, and tried to stomp me in the face, I rolled and dodged it. "Ok fine, if you want a fight, then lets go." I released my arm, and put a firm grip on my sword, I looked at Mark, and put my guard up. He smiled and held out a card.
"Finally, your deciding to get serous, let me show you my artifact." He soon summoned a big blade, it was two times the size of his body, and it hooked around. It had the tone of the moon, and there were jewels dangling around the handle. I could tell from the amazing aura, that he was powerful, I was starting to wish I had a artifact, but if I wanted to get one, I would have to actually make a pactio with that vampire, and I really didn't want that. Mark, placed the giant blade on his back, and put his free hand on the ground. He then rushed to me, and used his shoulder to push me off balance, he then used the hook side of his blade to grab me and pull me closer to him, he then punched me into his sword, that really hurt allot, I could feel my back cut up some, as he kicked me to the side. I hit a tree, and struggled to get up. My demon arm was not responding so well, and he didn't seem to be letting up. "I can see that arm of yours is not working right now, you did just seal it up, and it will take a few day before you can use it again." I started to get irritated, how did he know about me? How did he know about my arm. "Who are you really? How do you know me." He rested his sword on his shoulders, and looked at me, his aura started to calm down quickly, it was a bit freaky that he could control his own aura so well. "Ok the short version, I am a friend of Principle Nili, and she wanted me to fight you, I don't mind as long as I am entertained, and I must say, your not entertaining when that demon arm of yours is not working. I heard some rumors from some of the other students, that you were deciding to give up that arm of yours for something powerful. Well if you cant use that arm, your practically useless, that is why I am fighting you, to prove this fact!" His aura started to flair up quickly, and he charged me again. This time I blocked his sword with mine, a huge gust of wind blew from my side, but I didn't budge. I started to flair up my aura, as I looked at Mark. "I guess this is my wake up call, I should thank you for this, but seeing as your a man of action, how about I give you that fight you wanted." I pushed him back, and swung my sword at him, he blocked it and started to smile some. As we clashed our swords together, I couldn't help but smile, because I was having fun at that moment, sparks flew, as we pushed away. I flipped my sword around, and put my free hand on the end of the grip as I charged Mark, he swung his sword around, and we clashed at the tip of our swords. I didn't want to lose, I started to push up, but Mark, pushed down, and my sword jammed into the ground, as Mark punched me in the face, and launched me backward. I hit the ground hard, and started to breath heavally. Mark walked over to me, and looked down at me. "Not bad, although you were fighting hat half power, it was still fun. I know your signing up for the martial arts tournament, at Mahora fest, lets have our real match there, hopefully by that time, your arm will be fully healed." And with that Mark walked away, he was a tough opponent, and from that lose I really wanted to beat him, I got up and watched as he left, I guess I really am signing up for the tournament. I hope I get to fight more fighters like him, I looked at my arm and knew my answer, I couldn't give it up, it was what made my own power so grate, sorry sister, but I have to keep it. "Well I have to say, you did look cool at least Ko, however that lose was hard even for me to watch." I looked at a tree and saw Evangeline, and Chachamaru, she looked down to me and waved, she then jumped down and fell on top of me. "I have a suggestion for you Ko, how about you spend your last few days with me in my training resort. There is a time lap there, so you will be able to get 2 years of training in two days. So How about it?" I looked at her with an irritated look on my face, I then sighed and nodded.
"Fine, I'll do it, I do need to get stronger, just try not to seduce me vampire."
"Who me, never, who do you think I am?" She said it in a sarcastic voice, but it was still hard to tell if she was telling the truth or if she was lying, in any case, I guess I got two days of training to do this should be fun.
Seems Ko made a new rival, Mark Fray, trade mark of TriOblivion. Ko decided to keep his arm, and he now thrilled to go to the tournament, even though the principle forced him to enter for her own selfish reasons. I wonder what will happen next? please read review and comment, what you think should happen.
