Ria vanished from sight. An arc of lightning ripping through the darkness, illuminating the surroundings in a flash of blue.
The shadows lunged, a smear of black within the moment of light that Ria created.
*CLANG!!!
Claw met blade, sparks flew but Ria was already gone.
Arcs of lightning dancing across Terminus, trying to find the most optimal angle of attack.
Raikiri!
Lunging forward with a stab of absolute speed, Ria clicked her tongue seeing the beast flee. Flicking her fingers, she quickly adjusted the grip of her sword and parried a strike from behind.
Blood coiled like serpents around her blade, aiming for her jugular.
To end this farce with one attack.
*RUMBLE!!!
Lightning crashed down on Ria, burning away the blood.
'They're getting desperate.' Ria could tell.
After fighting these two beasts over and over, she could now sense the desperation in their attacks.
Their hunger.
To train her, Astrelya had kept these two beasts from running and even dying.
