Demons Walking Amongst The Earth: The Legend of Ryketsu

Chapter 8: Saya's vision's

Y/N: Again!

Saya yelled as charged at Y/N, who barely had a scratch on himself. Saya leaped up high and she went for a stabbing manoeuvre, Y/N jumped to the side, Saya reacted quickly and she leaped after her father, Saya did a horizontal slash followed by a upward attack. Y/N dodged most of her attacks, the ones he couldn't dodge, he parried away.

Saya began to slow down, showing signs of fatigue. Y/N narrowed his eyes, he swung Tensa Zangetsu in a sideways motion which connected with Saya's chokuto and it blew it out of Saya's hands, Y/N then followed with a hand to her stomach, pushing her back. Saya lost her footing and she tumbled backwards and landed on her back. She then saw her Father and he looked like he was going to stab her, Saya closed her eyes.

Y/N: The enemy will not show you any mercy. Once your on the ground, the fight is not over. Your opponent will not stop when you are on the ground. Now get up.

Saya groaned as she rolled her body onto her stomach, she began use what strength she had left. Her legs felt like jelly, it felt like a mountain just to get back on her two feet. She was now on one knee, she pushed herself up but her she lost her balance and she fell on her stomach again.

Erza: Y/N that's enough. Saya has been training for almost three hours. She needs to rest and eat something.

Y/N looked back at Erza who was sitting crossed legged at a campfire that she and Akame were sitting at. Y/N looked at Saya, who was trying to get back up, he could see that Saya was exhausted. He grunted in anger at himself. He sheathed Tensa Zangetsu and he looked away from the rest of them.

Y/N: Saya go get something to eat and rest up. We're done for today.

Saya: B-But....I can still fight....

Y/N: Do as I say!

Saya flinched as she watched her father walk into the forest, she sighed as she eventually got back up to her two feet. She walked over to the campfire, she sat down beside Akame who gave her some food for her to eat. Saya chomped her teeth into the piece of meat. Saya was trying to tear off a bit size. 

Erza: Saya, use your teeth to chomp down on the meat.

Saya acknowledged what had Erza had said, she used her teeth and she manged to get a bit size piece and she began chewing. Akame looked up at the sky. They had been walking since the sun was at it's highest point, through a deep forest. It would take them at least two to three days before they would make it to the Snow Village. Right now, it was now dusk and it was beginning to get dark.

Saya used her arm to wipe her mouth. She enjoyed the meat she had. Saya still felt sore, but her demonic healing was beginning to work and she could feel the work of the food she ate begin to aid in her healing. Saya looked at the campfire, eyes narrowed with a sense of sadness. Erza saw this, she stood up from her seat and she seat down beside her grand daughter

Erza: Is something wrong Saya?

Saya: Um...*looks away* nothing...it's just...well.

Erza put a hand on Saya's shoulder, she could feel Saya's muscles. She was tense, Erza then put her hand around Saya's other shoulder and she pulled Saya near her, rubbing her hair.

Erza: You can tell me, Saya. 

Saya: It just....I....I'm thinking about someone.

Erza looked at Saya, who kept staring at the campfire. 

Erza: Who is it?

Saya: My Mother.

Erza tensed slightly before she regained her composure and she looked at the fire as well.
