This is my first review of the story so far. I have adjusted to it in a way I believe fixes what they saw as confusing, without taking away and making it seem like a narrative. I'm posting it here to see if you all agree. If so, go back and look at how I did Point Of Views in the previous chapter and how I did so in this chapter.
"Wow, pretty damn good to read. I feel that you could have made some kind of divider or something to signal that you are changing POVs from Fox to another person. It may get confusing at times."
Enjoy these next chapters and continue to give me awesome feedback. Peace :D

Chapter 3:
Knowledge isn't power, its leverage
I remember going to sleep on my usual hill, under the beautiful cherry blossom tree. I could already tell from the cool shade that it was early in the morning. A light breeze was blowing as usual, making a few pedals fall from the tree and float down to my side as if to wake me up with a light greeting. I wish I could wake up to this every morning. When I settle down in whatever future I have, I'm going to make sure to come back to here and get a few seedlings to plant at my home. Whenever that era were to come, the era of my end nearing and my children's rising. This feeling of the softness of the grass, was it cut again? How do the grounds keepers do that while I'm asleep? What kind of magic is that? I should look that up sometime…anyway, I ran my hand across the surface. Feeling all of its details, the prickliness, the smooth texture, the softness as if on a cloud wishing I really knew what they felt like so I could compare them to this. Until then, this grass was just the smoothest thing I've ever felt. My hand started moving away from me slowly as I ran my hand up the surface again towards my face and lightly squeezed to feel the softness yet grainy texture of the dirt in the morning.
"I don't remember the grass and dirt feeling this smooth…" I mumbled to myself.
I felt a warmness lightly cover the top of my hand and put light pressure on it, moving it up a little more and it strangely felt like a hand. I heard a light moan and my mind began to finally wake up. My eyes shot open and I quickly moved my eyes to observe where I was. My head was on the thigh of a leg, my left hand, the one I was using to feel the other leg being lightly held by a feminine hand. I sat up quickly and turned to see my champion Ahri there, her legs slightly spread apart and biting her lower lip as her eyes were closed.
Her eyes opened seductively and looked at me dead in the eyes. "Why'd you stop?"
I blinked several times and rubbed my eyes, opening them again to see her biting her finger, her tails moving behind her except for one that began playing with a small bunch of hair that had fallen to the front of her, also in a seductive way. Good Gods, that was so…ugh, gotta resist. I have too…my Gods, she was really fucking good at this seductive shit.
"Uhm, I didn't know it was you. I usually wake up on this hill alone so I usually feel the earth between my fingers. Makes me feel better about trying to live on it, appreciating the detail that was put into the smallest of things." I rubbed my collar bone and looked away from her. I need to find something else to get my attention off of her. That's when I noticed Yasuo, leaning against his sword that was in the ground, lightly snoring. I need to get his attention and wake his ass up. Now.
I opened my mouth to call out to him only to have a finger placed onto it, making my voice curl away and become silent. I didn't want to turn my head, I didn't want to look at her because I knew I was being pulled into a dangerous area. But I couldn't stop myself, my head turned to the owner of the lovely finger and my eyes were met with Ahri's golden ones.
"Don't wake him, not yet. We need to start making progress on this situation of ours. We need to strengthen our bond, get more…intimate." She said, adding emphasis to the last word. Her hand that she had used to silence me now moved to under my chin and began lightly pulling me closer. I started to panic, watching as her lips inched closer to mine. They looked so soft, so…sensitive. I looked up to meet her eyes but they were closed and I took this chance, bringing forth my willpower that I thought had abandoned me, and placed my right thumb onto a pressure point I read about that was near the artery in the neck to sense your pulse, and pressed hard onto it. Ahri's eyes shot open and her hand lowered from my chin slowly as she made a choking sound.
"That…is not the way that works Ahri. You can't just force it, it has to be agreed upon by both parties. Now, when I let you go, you are going to move away and we are going to wake up Yasuo. Got it?"
She nodded her head and became silent as I slowly relieved pressure. I sighed and closed my eyes, suddenly feeling a very cold surface touch my lips. She didn't…
I opened my eyes and saw her so close that her nose was touching mine. I looked down to see that her lips were just as close, but the only thing blocking them as a steel blade, as cold as snow from the Frejlord I'm sure. I looked up and over to my left to see Yasuo there holding his blade and glaring at Ahri. Thank the Gods he woke up. I backed away and wiped my mouth with the back of my hand, looking at Ahri as she was frozen, the blade still flat against her lips, staring at me. I couldn't tell if she was sad or what but her eyes had an emotion somewhere in that area.
"You heard our summoner. The bonds strength doesn't work the way you want it too." Yasuo said with an irritated voice.
"I don't care. I need our bond to be the strongest." Ahri said pushing the blade away from her and she touched her lips.
I raised an eyebrow and leaned forward, putting my arms on top of my knees and lacing my fingers together. "Why do you specifically need to have the strongest bond?"
She looked at me and began dusting off her gown from dirt that didn't seem to be there. "Reasons that are my own and will only be discussed between you and me. So all I can say is that you should remember to ask me that when we go on our job." She then stood up, walked over the base of the tree and sat back down, folding her legs sideways, like a princess from the few fictional stories I read.
Holy shit…I just realized that I've read a lot of books…goes to show how boring of a life I've had so far.
"Fair enough. Yasuo?"
He looked at me, his blade still drawn and between me and Ahri. "Yes summoner?"
"Are we being attacked?"
He tilted his head to the side and raised an eyebrow in confusion. "Uh…no?"
"No? Why are you putting that in a question form? Are you not sure of your answer?"
"Not really, I'm just confused is all."
"Why? Was my question not clear in the meaning of what the answer should be?"
"Kinda?"
"Kinda? Another question as an answer, man you are one unsure guy."
"Uh, what?"
"Holy fuck, okay, are we being attacked?"
"We're back onto this question?"
"Yes or no man! Shit!"
"No."
"Okay, now, are you attacking me?"
"Of course not!"
"Then, put the blade away."
"But she-"
"Was that a request?!"
Yasuo went silent and looked at me and I looked back. This was an intense staring contest that I knew he was going to lose. I began to squint, my eyes starting to sting. This guy was holding out longer than I thought he could. He finally closed his eyes and did a fancy twirl of his blade then smoothly lead it into sheathing his blade. He bowed and respectfully spoke his next words that made me respect him even more. "No summoner. I apologize for arguing with you on the subject."
I was shocked for a moment and waited for him to bring himself back up. I rubbed my eyes and they returned back to their comfortable state, then realized that he was waiting for me to tell him to rise back up. "Come on. Get up. You're forgiven."
He rose again and put his hands onto his hips, as I brought myself to stand and stretch with a few grunts. I'll admit, they didn't sound very…manly I guess you could say. Just gross, almost like it sounded like I farted several times. "Mmmm, okay so, did you two stay with me the entire night?"
"We did." Yasuo responded first.
"He more or so napped or nodded off. If I could guess, he was asleep for all of 2 hours of the night." Ahri added in. She looked up at him and leaned back against the tree. "Am I right?"
He rolled his eyes and leaned back onto his heels like a kid who wanted a treat after doing a chore or something.
"Well…more…more or less I guess." He said as he looked down at his feet as if embarrassed for being so protective.
I smirked and walked up to him, hitting his shoulder playfully. "Don't be ashamed man, you were doing only what you…thought was right?" I looked to him for confirmation, but he only kept looking down as if ashamed.
"Yeah, I guess you could say that too…"
I wanted to get more out of him but I heard footsteps to my right. I turned to look and see my other five champions walking up the hill. I raised an eyebrow in question but remembered, pulling out my summoner's orb and did my usual motions with my fingers to check the time. The numbers came up and showed themselves to me in their usual blue mist form. 9:36. "Eh, close enough." I said with a shrug of my shoulders. I did the typing sequence into the orb again and the numbers reduced themselves back into the orb, which then proceeded to float back into my pocket. I looked down at what they were holding, which seemed like different bags of luggage. I looked back up to them with a raised eyebrow again.
"What's with all that?"
Diana was the one who spoke up this time, which was surprising. "Well, if we knew where your room was, we would've taken our stuff there, but we don't so, here we are."
"Why do you have to move in with me?"
"Well, it's customary for bound champions to move in with their summoner. It's to get a 'deeper bond'. So, where's the crib?" Fizz said with a touch of happiness.
I sighed and scratched the back of my head. "Well, alright. We'll stop by my room before we hit the Library. Maybe I can get a room change since I've got, you know, seven mouths to feed now."
"HA! We can feed ourselves young hunter." said Rangar.
"Yes, you aren't our father so you don't have to worry about our nutritional well-being." Said Aatrox, who had a messenger bag thrown over his shoulder. What the hell? He didn't wear clothes, what's in that bag?
I held up my hands as if being arrested by Caitlyn. "Alright, fair enough." I put them down and slid my hands into my pocket as I usually did before walking. Never knew why, just felt weird having them out in the open without a purpose to have them out. Before I could step forward, I felt Ahri slide her hand through the gap of my left arm and hold onto it as if she was in love with me or to show that we were a couple. I can tell this is going to be a normal thing from her. I let it slide since I had some rough plans for her training with me. "Let's get to it shall we?"
We all walked towards the nearby Institute, not saying much to each other. They mentioned types of jobs they'd like to do, such as Yasuo talking about a protection job asking if there was one. Fizz talking about mysterious waterfalls and legends behind them that he saw and heard other summoners talking about. Rengar obviously just wanted to hunt something down. Ahri, was talking about some club in Piltover that was very popular that she heard was being run behind the curtain by an old summoner that is wanted on accounts of cheating in the League. Luckily, she broke off of my arm and went back to stride next to Sona. Don't know how Sona talks to the other champions but whatever.
It was then that I noticed that Sona and Diana were wearing different clothes. Well, in Diana's case almost the usual, just without the top part of her armor, which was now replaced by a very nice dark purple blouse that went a little low on her waist. Sona was wearing dark jeans and some boots that had a soft looking material. Her shirt she had on was a simple light blue with a simple blazer that was see through and a yellowish tint. Her hair was like mine in the front, two strands on each side of the forehead, except hers was braided and went down to her collar bone. The rest of her hair had been straightened and when she turned her head I could see another bigger braid going down the middle of it. That was pretty cool.
I walked into the courtyard of the Institute and almost immediately felt that something was off. No one was here, even this early there should be summoners walking about heading to classes and matches. But there was no one. I stopped in my tracks, noticing something else was off, but I couldn't place it. I looked around to see if anyone was looking out of a window or was pointing a gun at me, but there was nothing…just silence. Wait that was it. The silence. Why couldn't I hear my champions? I turned around to see that they were banging on a blue barrier of light, from one side of the grand fence wrapping around the courtyard, to the other side, reaching up high so they couldn't use their skills to jump over, all of them with a look of concern or confusion. That's just a simple alteration of barrier, meant specifically to keep champions out or misdirect them. I began raising my right hand to de-spell it, only to feel a quick breeze blow by my hand followed by a stinging feeling. I pulled it back to see that my palm had a small but deep cut on it.
I looked around frantically, but still saw no one. I took a step back with my left foot and felt another quick breeze and another stinging feeling on the back of my knee. I fell to my knee and looked up, noticing the quick movements that were hidden. So, they were using 'ghost', possibly giving an alteration to 'clarity' mixed with it to give me slight confusion so they could get more strikes without me noticing them while trying to figure out the situation. I noticed another movement to my left and held out my hand to cast barrier. "Barr-" I was cut off by my extended arm being pushed down on at the shoulder while my hand was overturn to have the palm face the sky. Then I felt a sharp and strong pain as my shoulder became loose and I could no longer move it. I screamed out in pain and felt another stinging feeling on my back, from what I could tell, from my right shoulder to the middle of my back.
There was finally a break as I looked up to see three robed and masked figures appear. They weren't robes I had ever seen before, but the masks looked like that of The Master's, blank and no real features except for the eye slits. The robes were blue, with different rune shapes in them that I've never seen before. They all seemed to have a cape on that covered their right arm down to their wrists, the cape being a lighter blue color, just enough to tell the difference from the main robes that they wore. Two belts ran across their waists, one being dark brown, the other black, both having silver buckles to tighten the belts if need be. The robes split around their crotch area, almost as if it were a trench coat, but the top portion that covered their torso didn't have the same layout as a trench coat because it looked like you just put it on like a jacket without a zipper. Their pants were like pajama pants, loose and no details, down to their simple brown boots. The pants were only tucked in at the front of the boot, so you could see its whole front features, but from my angle, it didn't look tucked in at the back. The hood was simple as well, having a lining around the brim of the hood with engravings in it, also symbols that I haven't seen or read about before. Where the hell did these guys get them?
I saw from my peripheral vision in both eyes, the alteration of ghost and noted there were now five of them. My head jerk to the right as my left eye was hit hard. I fell to my popped out shoulder and grunted in pain as the pain renewed itself from the fall. I lifted myself onto my right hand and felt a warm liquid in my mouth, knowing that its blood. I spit, and looked up again still only seeing the three main figures. I looked over to where the barrier was keeping my champions back, only to see looks of horror. Yasuo had begun slashing at the barrier with his sword only to meet the same result, no effect. Ranger was pacing back and forth, an angry face on like a kid who just had their toy taken away. Fizz looking around the barrier as if to find a hole in it somewhere that he could squeeze through. Aatrox just stood there, weapon drawn, watching and waiting, while Sona and Ahri were next to him hands against the barrier wanting to get in. Diana's face was what shocked me the most, she was angry, weapon drawn and waiting, like a predator waiting for its prey to make a single mistake. I began thinking of the quickest de-spell I knew, but while I was thinking, my ribs were met with a hurtful kick from the phantoms that hid themselves. I rolled over and landed onto my dislocated shoulder again. Holy fuck that hurts. I screamed out in pain again, feeling my ribs already starting to bruise, spitting out another small amount of blood.
"This, is too easy." A voice finally spoke out. I looked at the three who just stood there, still lying on my left side, lifting myself up with my right hand to get the weight off this side of me. "You seemed to be more of a challenge yesterday, so why are you not fighting back now? Is it because we're not giving you a chance to do anything?" The one in the middle of the three was speaking.
"Have you noticed that we cast exhaust on you so you're slower to react? Makes kicking your ass a lot easier as well. Maybe that's a reason he can't do anything." Spoke the one to the middle guys left, my right since I was facing them.
"Or maybe it's his big fucking ego thinking he can take on people he couldn't beat in a millennium." Spoke the one on the guy in the middles right, my left.
"Or maybe," I began to say getting onto my left knee, propping myself up by posting my right leg up, standing with difficulty. "It's because there are six of you and one of me, two of you using ghost to hide, and the third being hidden while using all their strength to keep up that simple barrier." I quickly tried to throw them off with the knowledge that I knew they couldn't have someone focused on me and the barrier at the same time, unless they wanted to throw me off. So I pulled my right hand up to my left shoulder, feeling for the bone and confirming that it was dislocated, but can easily be popped back in, I just needed them to get distracted quickly with the answer I could guess was coming.
The man in the middle began to laugh and before he could speak I popped my arm back into its socket as fast as it could, feeling the ball of my upper arms bone connect itself with the position its naturally supposed to be in. I grunted from the pain and moved my arm around feeling slight cricks in my shoulder now, but still my arm was usable again. The man in the middle seemed to go quiet and just stood there.
"Took advantage of the situation and my slight distraction to repair yourself. Clever. But it won't matter, we'll just break your arm this time." He nodded his head and the specters that were hidden with ghost seemed to rush me, but I was ready this time. I whispered under my breathe and used 'flash' to move away from them only about 6 feet back from where I was and turned as quick as I could towards the barrier. All I needed to do was get one of my champions inside, and I would win this outcome for sure. I rose my right hand up again and began speaking the de-spell and it went down for a literal second. I didn't get the chance to see which champion made it through because I was tackled to the ground. As I tried to look up, I felt something hard hit the back of my head forcing my face to the ground, feeling weight being applied to my back. Probably my attacker on top of me, but that weight was lifted off of me quickly.
I turned my head to see a crescent shaped blade being held by a figure I could only guess to be Diana, standing to my left.
"Get up summoner!" She shouted at me and I obeyed, pushing off the ground and jumping to my feet. I spun around quickly and began thinking that I need to use a spell that will make it so I can see these invisible assholes.
"I keep noticing an almost invisible force attack you. I'm guessing they're using ghost in the form that you used it last night to disappear." She seemed to acknowledge.
"Yes, you're right. And I've got just the thing to counter it." I brought my hands together, making a clapping sound and began whispering the spells ancient words that I knew at the moment to make the spell be applied to certain objects instead of an area. "Clairvoyance!" I brought my hands apart and slammed them to the ground, sending a light blue shockwave across the grounds. It reached my targets and gave me the outcome I was looking for, revealing two new robed figures except they were wearing trench coats. Their masks were black, only change there, and along with the cape being the same except the color was dark brown along with the trench coat being black as well. They didn't wear shoes, they wore the same garb that covered Shen's feet, to make less noise. Smart attire to wear.
"Boy, you're full of surprises for a Bronze ranker." Said one of the new masked characters.
"Alright, you've managed to get a champion in here to help you. So what? Were summoners as well, and she can't touch us. Don't take that the wrong way, once you're a summoner, you can't be hurt by champions, even if you're banned from the league. So let's just say I'm in your head of thinking, this isn't a clue as to who we are, just know that we are, are on our way, or were summoners." The other newly revealed person spoke, except it was a female voice. Didn't sound familiar, but they can be using a spell for that to hide their real voice.
I stood up slowly and looked at all of them. Their stances they were all in now, looked like experienced battle stances. From what I could guess, they were at some pointed Silver Rankers, or trained by them. This was going to be a hard fight. I then noticed that Diana took her place in front of me, her right hand holding her blade out towards the three that hadn't attacked yet. In her left that she held back towards me, was Yasuo's sword.
"Get ready to fight summoner." Diana said but to whom, I could guess it was any of us. I quickly grabbed the hilt of the sword after noticing the masked figure on our right move to attack us, their blade drawn. I drew the blade and spun to my right, holding the blade vertically and hearing the 'clang' as her the masked figures blade clashed with mine. I heard Diana grunt and looked over worried to see that she had swung her weapon at the summoner only to miss, having him duck and punch her gut. I was met by a similar strike against my chest sending me back a few steps, but I wasn't quick enough to block the follow up as I was drop kicked and sent off my feet enough to lose balance and not catch myself. My head hit the ground hard again and I groaned slightly, looking up at Diana, my vision blurred, but I could tell she was being hit again and again. I tried to clear my vision by blinking several times, and finally it cleared up, so I could see the horrible scene unfold more clearly.
Diana was being held by both arms by the two who had on black masks, and was being approached by one of the three figures that hadn't made a move at me yet. They looked at me and then proceeded to punch Diana numerous times in her stomach and her face. Cuts began showing on her face as the punches force broke her skin. Her cries made me cringe and I saw the figure pull out a small blade from their back. They looked at me once more as I tried to get up, only to be met with my head scream out at me to stop moving, the pain from hitting my head and having it hit taking its toll. Then the masked person took the blade and cut Diana on the top portion of her right breast, and she screamed out in pain. I couldn't take it anymore. I didn't want to see any of my champions put through this!
"Get the fuck away from her!" I screamed, my right fist glowed and came alive with electricity, as I whispered the spell 'flash'. I disappeared and re-appeared on the right of the masked personnel, and smashed my right fist into the side of their head. They went flying and landed on their left side, rolling a foot or two, but I didn't see what happened to them after that, I was already in motion of attacking these two fuckers holding Diana. I flashed behind the one holding her left arm, punching their lower back with my right fist, bringing my left fist around to hook their ribs in. My left fist made contact, causing the figure to move with the pain, scrunching in their left side, opening the right side of their face to me. I electrified my fist again and smashed it against their face, forcing them to the ground and bringing my left foot back then moving it forward with as much force as I could, kicking them away with ease. By this time, the masked assailant holding her right arm was aware of my attacks, and pushed Diana away, bringing up his fists ready for my move. I used a smaller portion of the spell 'teleport' to get behind him, ducking from the guess that he'd see me do this and swing with a right or left hook. I was right, and brought my left fist up, igniting it at the last second to give it an explosive effect and making contact with his jaw. I lifted him off the ground and jumped back quickly, jumping off my right foot again just as fast, extending my leg all the way up to his chest and kicking it as hard as I could, sending him back a few feet as well.
I didn't look to see them try to recover, I put all my attention into Diana. I knelt down to her as she was on her right knee, holding her right arm against her breast and her left hand caressed her left ribs.
"Hey, look at me, look at me." I said in a worried voice. I know she didn't like me but she was still my champion, I couldn't help but care for her as a brother did his sister, or a husband to a wife when she was hurt. I put my hands on her neck to hold her head up and face me. Her right eye had a bad cut over it, and her left jaw was starting to swell, blood dripping from the cut above her right eye. "Oh Gods, that looks painful."
"It is. But not as much as my breast. Moon God, it hurts like a bitch." She replied to me.
I looked down at it, seeing that it wasn't too deep of a cut. Probably deep enough to leave a scar though. I brought my left hand down to it, and spoke my healing spell into it. "Don't take this the wrong way okay? I'm doing this to heal it, not cop a feel."
"Cop a what?" She said but gasped as I placed my hand around what I could of her right breast, and slightly squeezed to apply pressure and slow the blood flow from the wound. My hand began glowing a bright light green and I could feel the cut begin to close up. My vision flashed white again and it was only Diana and I, kneeling together in an open space. I felt a pull from my left hand press onto Diana's breast and she gasped again, closing her eyes, and leaning her head forward. Her forehead touched mine, and she brought her left hand up and placed it gently on the back of my neck. I looked down and saw a clearly visible aura between us, linking her heart with mine. I looked back up at her eyes, and she had opened hers, to look back at me and we stayed that way for a few more seconds. Then we were sucked back into reality, and the scene we were in before returned.
I pulled my hand away and closed my eyes. I went limp for a few seconds, my mind on nothing but Diana. I could suddenly see her, and nothing but her, I knew her movements, the way she walked, the sway of her hips, how her chest bounced slightly when she took a step. Then I focused on her attack movements, and could count them in a beat, as if I memorized them.
My eyes shot open, and I could see Diana across from me, not a foot away, looking back. Her eyes were nothing but pure silver, glowing. "Your eyes, why are they-" I said.
"Glowing? I don't know but so are yours." She said, almost finishing my sentence. Then I knew. What just happened was what happened with Sona and I, we bonded onto a new level. My thoughts, were her thoughts, my actions being reflected onto hers and vice versa. We were in sync with each other. She nodded her head and looked down at her chest where the wound was. I was right again, the wound was sealed but there was a scar that was darker than her skin tone.
"So you can-" I began to say only to be cut off again.
"Hear your thoughts? Yes, I can. Got an explanation for this?" She asked. I didn't respond verbally but repeated my thoughts of what happened to us and she nodded again. "Well then, let's try this fighting thing one more time."
We both stood up at the same time, and looked around us. They seemed to have recovered except for the guy that I uppercut, he wasn't moving. The two that had actually attacked Diana, the one with a black mask, and the one that was standing with the other two white masks previously but came over to cheaply attack Diana, were next to each other, fists up, a blade in each ready to attack. The other two were moving towards the one that had a black mask and wasn't moving.
Without even looking at her, I could see Diana reached down for her weapon, as if I was looking through her eyes. That was trippy, and I didn't really understand how it worked, but whatever. I walked over to where Yasuo's blade was and picked it up. I walked back over to Diana's side and she held out the blades sheathe, knowing what my attack plan was going to be, I slid it into the sheathe, and she let go, allowing me to catch it with my left hand and hold it there. I took a step back with my left foot and Diana took a step back with her right, so that we were now back to back and keeping our eyes on the two ready to fight.
They looked at each other then back at us, yelling "Ghost!" simultaneously. They rushed us, appearing on either side of our back to back formation.
The one that was in front of me swung their blade out to cut my left arm. I could feel Diana moving her blade swiftly to block without leaving her stance. The blades made contact and my attacker swung the blade around to do an overhead cut downwards only to be met again by Diana's blade. Reading my next plan of attack, she bounced the blade off of hers and showed me her attacker attempting a right swing with their blade at her. As I saw the next move, she followed it to the letter, swinging her blade in front of her and catching her attackers attack and guarding against it with ease. I took advantage of my attacker's stunned failure to strike at me, since their blade was still above their head from being thrown back by the block and used the scabbard of Yasuo's blade to hit their stomach hard. They keeled over from the blow and I brought the tip upwards to hit their hands, knocking the blade they were holding up into the air. I then kicked off my left foot, bringing my knee up and hitting them on the mask, forcing them back up, and jumping off my right foot lightly, used the momentum to kick out with my left leg and hit them in the chest. They were sent back a few steps as I landed and did a small twirl bringing the scabbard of the blade up to my shoulders and across the back of my neck, pointing the tip of the scabbard towards Diana's attacker.
-Diana
I blocked my attacker's blade as Fox had shown me to do, and pushed it away. They used this as momentum to bring their blade over their head and bring down another strike, which I easily sidestepped. I kicked their hand with my right foot and they used the force to spin around on their right foot, and facing me again, stabbed at me. I was already leaning to my right, dodging the blade that would've hit me if I hadn't done so. I trapped the blade within the crooked of mine near my hilt and pushed it out again, forcing an opening for Foxes attack that I could see as clear as day, without my vision being obscured.
This was incredible. I've never been bound to a summoner, let alone fight side by side with one I was bound to. His thoughts were with mine and I'm sure mine were with his, as he easily explained what the strange experience was for us. When his hand was on my breast, I won't deny that it felt…new. I hadn't let a man touch me that way in God's know how long, but it felt amazing to say the least. It was such a simple touch and not meant to be romantic at all, he was just healing my wound. But the force that pulled his hand toward my breast again, forcing more pressure, I wonder if it was because of the healing being strengthened, or my desire to have more of that feeling…either way it doesn't matter! I can't fall for this man! He is my enemy, or at least I think he is.
I could hear his heartbeat, and use it to count his movements as he made them. He was all I could think about while we were like this, synced together, moving as one and using each other to protect one another. I read his next attack while pushing his blade away, coming up with our motions and combo's as the fight continued on. Was this how he fought every fight? The scabbard of Yasuo's blade came flying at my attacker and hit them in the mask and I could hear it worked as they grunted and stepped back. I could see through Fox's eyes that he twirled around again and began slashing at his attacker, making sparks as his blade came in contact with his opponents. I caught the scabbard with my left hand and spun it in my palm before sliding my hand to one end of the scabbard and swinging it to hit my attackers right side of the face. Their head jerk to the left and I saw that Fox had pushed his attacker back a step and we moved to switch and throw them off. He ducked and rolled over his back, seeing through his eyes that he had swung upward with the blade, cutting his new opponent across the chest, while I threw the scabbard at mine, hitting their left leg. They took another small step back with their left leg only to have me hook my blade around their ankle of their right leg and pull it up and towards me. They were pulled successfully back at me, and the gap hadn't been closed just yet, so I used 'Moonfall' to bring them closer. Seeing the next move of Fox in our minds, I saw this was the perfect range for both of our next attacks. I saw Fox set his up after his stroke upwards, he moved quickly and stepped into his attacker's guard, placing his right leg between his attacker's legs. He then grabs the collar of the robed man, and yanks them with him only to let go when in range of our next move.
I swung around to my left, getting onto my right knee while Fox turned to his left simultaneously. He stabbed the blade into the ground with his right hand and put his left foot onto my left knee as we planned. He lifted himself up enough to bring his right foot up onto the hilt of the blade he stabbed into the ground, kicking off it enough to get himself up higher into the air. Bringing his right fist back, he shouted "IGNITE!" and his fist erupted into flame. While he did this in a smooth motion, I stabbed my blade into the ground as well, and brought my right fist into an uppercut towards the face that was pulled forward from Fox. I called out a 'Pale Cascade' orb to cover my fist and deal extra damage. At the same time, we brought our fists down and up, making contact with the masks of our attackers' shattering them. Fox's opponent was forced to the ground, her face covered in blood, small pieces from the glass like material masks, in different parts of it. My opponent was sent back up and around in a 180 degree angle and landed on his back, his face covered in blood as well with remnants of his mask in his face. Neither of us could recognize who they were but was we stood there, looking over our defeated opponents, we heard a loud 'BANG'. Our opponents had been shot by something in the sides of their heads, he took a step back and looked over to the other two who had yet to attack us. One of them, the one without what looked like a gun, held the masked person that Fox knocked out earlier over their shoulder. The other had just lowered their gun and slid it back behind their back into a hidden holster.
That was when I noticed Rengar next to me, and Aatrox near Fox. Fizz, Yasuo and Ahri were in-between the rest of us and the three masked figures left standing, Yasuo recovering his blade from the ground now holding it out towards the masked men. I turned my head slightly to see Sona behind us all, healing my wounds but not Fox's. Why the hell was she healing me and not him? Then I searched Fox's head for the answer and found among his memory that he told Sona to focus all her healing into me. This fool! He needed the medical attention way more than I did.
"Now Fox, you just had to go and ruin it all by taking out my barrier holder. How did you know?" The one that just put the gun away asked.
"They had a trinket of some sort on their belt buckle that was hidden by the cloak over their arm. Figured it had a special reason behind so I slashed at it to see what would happen. Guess it's my lucky day."
The figure nodded his head before responding. "Indeed. Even with my skill, I know I won't be able to win this kind of fight. We're withdrawing."
The figure behind him with nodded and held down onto the other over their shoulder. The main one, the leader, turned back towards us and spoke once more. "Next time though, it will be just you and me. That is when you will know."
"Know what?" Fox said.
"That knowledge isn't power, its leverage. And you just showed us a lot of what you've learned from this place, so we can now use it against you and no longer underestimate you. Until then Fox, keep yourself well." Then they disappeared with what seemed like a swipe of the wind. We all kept our position for a few more moments before the adrenaline finally wore off. I began feeling all the pain throughout my body from the exhaustion. I started falling to my right only to be caught by Rengar.
My eyelids grew heavy and I could guess they weren't glowing any more, meaning our Sync state had wore off.
"Don't worry young huntress. It looks like the danger is no more." Rengar spoke. Fizz, Sona, Aatrox, Rengar and Ahri were around me, looking me over.
"Holy shit, you got an ass beating. And not in the fun way." Said what I guessed was Fizz.
"Your wounds don't look that severe, but you must be in a lot of pain." I could tell that was Aatrox, his voice had a slight echo to it. I've always wondered how that was.
"Guys," I began to say.
"I can't believe you let Fox take a beating like that." Said Ahri with what sounded like an attitude towards me.
"Are you fucking kidding me?" Fizz said with irritation.
"What?" She responded with confusion, although she knew damn well we were trapped behind the wall all in the same.
"We were trapped behind a wall. She was the only one smart enough to use her Ultimate to get through with the opening Fox gave us." Fizz spoke out again, looking up at her.
"So?" Ahri said again. Geez, she was annoying. No wonder everyone starting to dislike her as much as Teemo.
"So, you need to shut the fuck up and not be a hypocrite." Fizz began to raise his voice.
"Guys," I spoke up again but my voice was low since I was so tired. I can only imagine how tired Fox is. I looked over to my right to see Rengar's chest piece. I looked down at where Ahri was standing and arguing with Fizz, and noticed Yasuo in the background moving to where his swords scabbard was and picked it up.
"HEY! Don't bring cereal maggots into this conversation!" Fizz yelled at Ahri. Wait, what?
That was when we heard the gagging sound, followed by a loud cough. Everyone turned their heads towards the sound as did I. I was met with a sight I felt I didn't want to see this man go through again.
-Yasuo
I watched as the three robed figures disappear as Fox did last night. I held my blade that I leant to Fox during the fight out towards where they masked men were and waited to see if another attack was bound to happen. I heard Rengar behind me say "Don't worry young huntress. It looks like the danger is no more." and looked back to see Diana had fallen into his arms. His size compared to hers was unbelievable. I turned my attention towards Fox whose eyes had stopped glowing, and smiled at me.
"Go and get your swords sheath. Thanks for letting me use it." I started walking towards him with concern.
"Are you alright summoner? Where are your wounds the worst?" I said only to be shrugged off and met eye to eye.
"I'm fine. Go get your weapon its holder. I'm sure it misses it."
I nodded and turned towards where the scabbard lay. I walked over, passing by the group to hear them argueing over something stupid and childish I'm sure. I stopped in front of my swords sheath and leaned down to pick it up. As I stood back up straight, I heard a vivid coughing sound along with a gagging sound. My worst fears rose as my memory of those sounds registered with internal bleeding. I've inflicted enough of that kind of harm in my past battles to know its sound by heart. I swung around quickly to see Fox, spit up a large amount of blood and vomit. Their colors being mixed only gave a disgusting green brown with dark red mixed in with it. As I followed the liquids to the ground, I then noticed a pool of blood around Fox's feet. Why hadn't we seen that before?! Fox fell to his knees, and his eyelids began shutting as he fell forward again.
Then out of nowhere, the courtyard was full of summoners, the fountains waters gushing about as usual. A few summoners noticed our precense right away and a couple screamed out in shock. I rushed forward to try and catch Fox before screaming his name. He then fell face first to the ground, with the loudest thump I've heard since that day at the temple.
It couldn't end like this, not when we had just been bound. Not when my forgiveness had just begun.
