"This isn't the first time I've been in a fight" Liz assured before stepping through the large hole in the wall. Hoping to take advantage of the opening, Liz swung her spear straight toward the knight's exposed back, not only scoring a direct hit, but also knocking him straight through the damaged wall and into the open grass field that surround the gymnasium. Despite the speed and ferocity of the attack, Liz's eyes were surprisingly able to follow it and she shifted slightly to the left, the blade slicing into the wooden wall behind her a second later. Suddenly the knight once again charged forward, this time trying to slash his sword upward at Liz's torso. "The name is Liz" growled Liz before giving the jewel on her forehead a light thump. "You'll be on your knees thanking me once you've learned how to harness the powers I've given you." "We'll be discussing that at great length very soon" she said with a concerned look on her face. Improvements I made on your fragile mortal shell?" "Would I be correct to presume you approach of the. "I suppose that would impressive to the eyes of a human" the dark voice said. "Wow." Liz gasped, also surprised at her own strength as she watched the knight fall to one knee. The knight was not expecting such a strong blow and was sent sliding back several yards. Acting quickly, Liz raised her leg and kicked the knight in the stomach as hard as she could. Liz was fortunately able to block the attack with her spear's handle. A second later, the knight rushed forward at a speed not possible for an ordinary man and swung his sword at Liz's head. After muttering something in a langauge clearly not human, the knight turned its gaze back to Liz. The knight raised his shield before glancing over to Kip. "Praise from a space god?" Liz snickered. "We only just fused and you're already a match for an elite warrior of the Divine." "You're performing better than what can be expected" a dark voice chuckled in Liz's mind as the purple jewel embedded in her forehead glowed brighter. After landing safely on her black boots that stretched up to her knees, Liz spun her spear around her body a few times before pointing the blade straight at the knight's chest. "Cut me some slack Kip" Liz grumbled after being forced to leap back from the knight's sword swipe. "Come on Liz!" the child yelled while watching the girl thrust her red spear, adorned with three purple jewels, forward, only for the knight to parry it with his silver buckler. Two people, one a male knight sporting a well polished suit of angelic white armor that covered him from head to toe, the other a teenage girl dressed in light red armor with a yellow dress underneath, were locked in fierce combat while a small child cheered on from atop the racks of chairs that lined the gym's walls. The sound of clashing steel and furious battle cries echoed throughout the school's halls, emanating from the gymnasium. Or at least that was normally the case, but tonight something very different and far more dangerous was going on. The local high school was no different, all the students and faculty members had left several hours ago, leaving the school with nothing but silence. Pretty soon everyone would be home in their warms beds, waiting for tomorrow to begin. The sun was setting on what looked like another peaceful day in Manjimup.
