CW: Blood, Alcohol, Toxic Relationship

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Technoblade reaches his sword out in front of him, waiting for you to do the same. You raise your eyebrows and look down at it. It shines in the moonlight and the enchantments make it look ethereal, shimmering as shadows from nearby trees cast playful shadows over it.

You glance down to your own sword, a little smaller than his, but you know that it holds the same amount of importance and strength. You spin the handle gently and glimpse at the jewel that has a small "D" engraved on it. Your shield is a bit heavy in your hand and you shift your weight uncomfortably.

"Ahem." Techno clears his throat, and your attention is redirected back to him.

"Oh shit. Sorry." You say quickly, before bringing your own sword out in front of you. Slowly, you tap the edge against his, before turning and taking a couple steps back.

"Alright then. Lets have at it." He says, lifting his sword high and taking steps back as well. He brings it down and crashes it into your shield. You raise your shield with his sword still in it and give it a twist, causing him to fumble with the handle. Taking the chance, you bring your sword to the middle of his blade and hit as hard as you can.

It disconnects from your shield, and the tip falls into the soft ground below you. Techno grabs ahold of the handle once again and brings the blade toward you. You turn, blocking his shots, one after another. Techno keeps going, with sheer determination in his eyes. You lift your sword once again bringing it down hard and fast, desperate to catch a break from his relentless attempts.

-----------------

After what felt like hours of fighting, you've become exhausted but you're to competitive to call Techno off. He continues to rush you, making it impossible to keep up with his movements. You thought you started to detect a pattern but it only helped you loosely.

Specks of the white fluffy snow beneath you have turned red from both your and Techno's blood. Breathing heavily, you take a quick look around at your surroundings, wondering if there is anywhere you can hide to regain some health and strength. You made the mistake of looking away for too long and Techno's blade slices across your cheek. Whimpering, you bring your sword up to stun him, stabbing at the center of his chest plate causing him to fall back some.

Smoothly, you dive behind a near by tree.

"Y/N. Come back out here." Techno says. His footsteps are getting closer and closer to your tree. Trying to gather your thoughts, you crouch and debate on what to do.

As you continue to hide, you realize how quiet it is. Too quiet. Sudden realization hits but you're to slow. Techno moves too fast for you to run, and suddenly there's a loud whack. The tree you were hiding behind falls to the ground with a thud that makes your bones rattle.

With your ears ringing, you turn and trip over a root hanging out of the ground. Techno is upon you in an instant, straddling your torso and putting his blade just next to your face. "Ooh looks like you just messed up." He says. "Really? I hadn't noticed." You respond sarcastically. Technoblade leans forward and presses the sword harder and closer to you, just barely grazing your cheek.

"Are you done yet?" Techno says.

"Not even close."

You put your feet around his ankles and turn so that he falls off your body and lands next to you. You roll over and feel a sharp jab in your side. You reach down to your hip and see a small dagger that techno had thrown at you. Groaning, you pull it out and stab into the ground. You stand up and equip your shield. Techno pulls his sword out once again and catches a small notch in your shield and lifts it up, leaving your stomach vulnerable. You raise your shield and slash at him blindly. Smoothly, he removes his sword from your shield and drives his own sword underneath yours, launching it into the air. Your blade lands a couple yards away from you. You and Techno make eye contact and for a second neither of you move.
