The arena had long,ancient looking, black supports. It look great but terrifying. The rest of the arena was clear so the village could see me fail or win in the battle to save their homes.
A person rose up from the other side of the arena. He was draped in a long ,black cloak like Laric's ,but it also had black armor covering arms, legs and chest. He also had a long, sharp, brown spear in his right hand.
"He gets a weapon and I don't. I think that is a little unfair,"I shouted towards Laric.
He smiled and seemed to press a button on the tall machine.
Suddenly a wall of weapons appeared in front of me.
"Wow," I whispered to my self.
Many weapons decorated the walls, but one in particular.
I grabbed a bow and quiver off the wall.
As soon as they left the wall the wall sank back down.
Laric raised his hand and yelled"Fight."
My opponent must of thought I was a village girl that didn't know self defense. He came at me fast ,but not fast enough. I easily step sided. He turned around a swung his spear at me ,but I ducked as it flew over me. I drew an arrow and snagged the guys robes. He pulled my arrow out of his robes and ran toward me. The guy was started to get inpatient. He thought I should have been down already. He swung his spear once again, but that was a big mistake. I grabbed the shaft of his spear and shook it out of his hand. Once I had the weapon , I broke it in half and threw it on the floor. The man was in shock. I had disarmed him. I took my bow and knocked him upside the head, knocking him out cold.
I couldn't believe it , I did it. The city was cheering for me.
The floor under my unconscious opponent into the bottom of the arena.
"Nicely done ,but you still have to beat the "Heavy Hammers" first," said Laric.
"What?"
"Two more machines came out of the arena,right in front of me. They were the ones that tried to capture me, so I had a score to settle with those tin cans.
They both came charging at me.I steep-sided barley. Just as they turned I quickly shoot two arrows, one at each of them. The arrows hit them ,but didn't do much. Machine #1 can quickly at me and I charged. Right before we hit, I slid under it's feet, sliding. I forced myself to turn around ,and shoot a arrow. The arrow was able to hit a clink in it's armor. It jerked for a second and exploded. I stopped ,but I realized that I still had Machine #2. I turned around and saw it charging at me. I don't know how I was able to do it ,but new reflexes took over. I did a couple of back flips which was amazing to me since I couldn't ever do gymnastics. Machine #2 was still coming ,but I bought us some room. I quickly fired an arrow and step-sided. It barreled past me again. I kept at shooting arrows at it. As it turned around and continued to come at me, I was able to hit a clink in it's armor by the neck. It also exploded.
"I win! Now leave this town in peace!" I yelled.
All Laric did is smile.
"Impressive, but would you really think I would keep my word."
He pushed a button and the giant Heavy Hammer, destroyed the closest stand.
Everyone in town ran for cover.
"You lied!" I yelled at Laric.
"Of course," he said," My master is going to concord the entire Inner world."
I heard screaming. I looked over to see Sena and Mina. The giant machine had raised his arm to smash them. I had to protect them.
"I got this Kina,"said Matilda.
I knew what she was thinking.
"Manacle out."
My bracelet transformed into my manacle.
"Matilda, spider out."
A pink orb of light came out of my manacle and hurdled towards the twins. It suddenly became a giant pink and black battle spider. Luckily Matilda was able to grab the twins right before the crushing hand come on top of them. Matilda returned by my side. Sena and Mina got off the battle spider.
Sena and Mina seemed to ask the same questions.
"How...why... who is your partner."
"What a battle spider!" screamed Laric.
"We have to stop him now before any one gets hurt,"said Matilda.
"Agreed."
If my grandfather's stories had been true all along, what I was about to do should work.
"Arachna Power!" I yelled as I raised the manacle above my head.
A power seemed to erupt from my manacle. A web shaped light came over my clothes. Suddenly my clothes turned into pink and black armor. Just as fast a different bow appeared. It wasn't made out of wood and it was pink and black just like my armor. Also on my left hand grew a heart shaped pink and black shield.
As soon as the light died and the power faded , I was ready for battle.
I looked over at Matilda. She didn't look a lot different ,but I could tell she was armored. She looked back at me.
"Let ride," I said.
"Right."
I jumped onto Matilda ,and we rode into battle.
