"Are you looking down on ?!" - Rin exclaid when noticing how the boy was holding back. She couldn't hide the fury she was feeling.
"I-It's not that!" Ichika exclaid as he backed away, "It's just…"
"It is just that?!" Rin exclaid as she took her weapon firmly, "Do you think I'm weak?!"
"No!" Ichika yelled as he looked down at the ground "I just don't want to hurt you…"
". . ." Rin's fury exploded. She was not a weak girl who had to be defended, she was a pilot trained since she was a child to be one of the best and strongest won in the world - "Enough!"
With a quick movent, she appeared in front of the boy and gave him a vertical cut - "We may be childhood friends... I may like you... But I'm not going to let you keep insulting !"
"I'm not trying to insult you!" -Ichika said as he concentrated the energy of his shield on his thrusters so he could dodge the girl's attack- "I really don't want to hurt you!"
". . ." Rin gave the boy a cold look as the cannons on her shoulders began to glow.
* * * * *
"That idiot…" Houki said as she frowned. She understood that her childhood friend did not want to harm one of her loved ones but by showing that attitude, she was only hurting the pride of Rin, a girl who was a Cadet to Representative of the Country of her.
"I take it back, he's a complete asshole"-Laura snorted as she frowned.
"I understand that Ichika-san has also gone through a trauma... but..." Cecilia sighed as she shook her head-"It seems that he hasn't tried to overco it..."
"As I said, having a person's life in your hands... is sothing difficult to digest" - Cloud said while shaking his head - "Killing is easy, the difficult thing is what cos after... guilt, suffering , nightmares... all that can break a person. Ichika was just a normal boy and after a week of training, he almost killed one of his classmates... I don't think his way of acting is wrong, more knowing that Rin is soone important to him"
The girls fell silent as they digested the blonde's words.
"I see that you have experience in the matter"-Tatenashi said as she dangerously approached the boy-"Have you already killed soone?"
"My hands are already stained with blood" - answered the blonde to the surprise of the girls - "I've lost count of how many people I've killed..."
"H-How is that possible?" - Cecilia asked with surprise.
"Because the place where I was all this ti, was a confidential facility of the Japanese governnt" - Cloud said calmly because honestly it wasn't like it was a big secret or sothing he had to be hiding. He hadn't told Ichika and Houki before because it had been so many years that it might have caused their friendship to be slightly destroyed.
"Why didn't you tell about that earlier?!" Houki exclaid as she looked the boy straight in the eye.
"Because I knew you would react that way" - the blond sighed - "What would have happened if you knew that I had killed before you knew well?"
The girls fell silent as they imagined the situation, only to discover that they could have isolated the boy thinking he was out of his mind. Houki also freaked out because he was opening up away from his friend thinking that he had changed in a bad way-"..."
"They see him?" - Cloud said with a smile - "Human beings are creatures that can prejudice soone just by having a few small details..."
"You know Cloud? I feel like you're getting more and more interesting~" -said Tatenashi as she whispered in his ear-"I guess the Alias of [The Ultimate Soldier] suits you"
"It's not sothing that makes feel proud and honestly I prefer my other code na"-Cloud said as he shook his head.
"And what would that be?" Tatenashi asked curiously.
"Subject S... or better known as..." - Cloud said with a big smile - "[Sephiroth]" -
* * * * *
"Fight with everything you've got!" Rin exclaid as she continued shooting without stopping.
"I told you I don't want to hurt you! Ack!" Ichika yelled as he felt an energy bullet hit his shield.
[Shield reduced by 5%]
". . ." Ichika frowned when he heard this as he glared at Rin.
"Are you finally going to fight like n?" - asked Rin with a smile full of disdain - "Right... now n can't against us"
In the stands, Cloud's eyebrow twitched in irritation as a wide grin spread across his face. It seems that he had found the next opponent of his.
"I think soone bothered my cute Kouhai~" - Tatenashi said with a big smile when she saw the blonde's irritation.
"!" -For her part, Rin could only feel a shiver run down her back. She slowly turned her head, only to shake even more when she noticed the friendly smile the blond boy had.
With a quick shake of her head, she put that aside for another mont and focused fully on her opponent.
"..."-Ichika just sighed ruefully as he tightened his grip on his weapon.
"I see that you're finally going to take seriously..." - agreed Rin seeing that Ichika's sword was shining again - "HA!"
Rin again launched herself at Ichika, only to notice how the boy's sword passed a few inches from her face. She could only break a bead of sweat seeing how close that attack ca.
"Rin... it's not that I don't want to fight you or I'm looking down on you" - Ichika said as he got into a combat stance and cald his breathing - "It's just that my technique is lethal and I still don't control it well.. .. I'm afraid of seriously hurting you if I use more force than necessary as it almost happened with Cecilia-san... but you're leaving no choice..."
"Ichika... I'm skilled enough to defend myself against anything you throw at " - Rin said seriously - "And I'm sure Cecilia-san could too but she couldn't do it because your IS changes were too surprising"
In the stands, Cecilia nodded at those words. She had lost her rhythm at the abrupt changes Ichika had gone through. According to her thoughts, it was like going from fighting a cat to fighting a tiger.
"That's why you better fight with everything!" Rin exclaid with a smile.
". . ." Ichika nodded firmly as he fully focused on his weapon-"Yukihira!"
Ichika's sword glowed brighter as he began to advance on Rin.
"This is what I wanted!" Rin exclaid as he took the Weapon from him and flew to hit his childhood friend. "Prove wrong!"
Ichika only gave her a serious look as he focused more energy on his katana.
* * * * *
"This is a little better" - agreed Laura seeing that the combat was much more exciting.
Ichika was slashing in different directions as Rin was pushed further and further back by the force of the hits he received as he blocked.
"It would be more productive for him to use the energy cannons that he has on his shoulders to keep Ichika-san at a safe distance"-Cecilia said and apparently Rin heard her because she began to concentrate energy on her cannons.
"Orimura-kun could increase his damage if he used simpler moves"-said Tatenashi as she analyzed the match.
Ichika was attacking almost erratically, causing him to use a lot of unnecessary moves.
"Not to ntion that she's consuming her Shield at high speed" - Cloud said calmly - "Although from what I see, the residual damage Rin is receiving is just as great. Her weapon seems to be reinforced with Shield to be able to resist the damage Yukihira's massive, that's why she's consuming extra energy"
Ichika was attacking faster and faster while Rin seed to be sweating from the pressure he was feeling.
"It seems that our victory is getting closer" - said Cecilia with a smile.
"I wouldn't be so sure, rember that in a battle many things can change with just a few seconds" - Laura said with disdain - "Look"
Ichika quickly stepped back as he was bombarded by hundreds of energy bullets and when the smoke from the impact disappeared, the onlookers noted how the boy's Shield was much thinner than before, showing that it had been greatly reduced.
"You had to say that and bring us bad luck!" Honne exclaid as he puffed out his cheeks in annoyance.
Cecilia only looked away sadly, but her expression changed when she noticed how the blond boy was looking at the sky, or rather the 'glass' ceiling that was protecting the Arena-"Is sothing wrong, Cloud- kun?
"I think we won, Houki"-Cloud said as he frowned.
"?" -Houki gave him a confused look as she looked in the direction where her childhood friend was looking, only to notice how a completely black silhouette was floating outside the Academy-"!"
