Bon Love Story

Chapter 5

Mayumi's P.O.V
I was watching Rin as he was training with my father I snickered when Rin blushed when my father's face came close to him before my father disarmed Rin again as I snickered. "Alright father my turn; let's see if uncle can withstand me."

Atticus chuckled and kissed my forehead softly as he sent his halberd sword away. "Of course; maybe someone who can connect easily with him will be able to help teach Rin how to fight better against someone older then him."

I smiled softly. "I'll do my best; and if I goof up I'll do the chores tonight at home."

"No it just means your training will be a little harder again and you will not know which one of us will be training you." Atticus chuckled as he went to take a seat and I smiled facing with Rin and held my right hand out and my blade appeared; like Rin's mine was a katana but the difference was...my katana was actually two in one. In battle or training I could use my powers to separate the blades and in a battle with another single blade, my twin blades gave me a slight advantage as it would give me another blade to fight with...but the downside it could the few seconds I needed in a fight to stay in one piece...and using my powers on my blades could leave me vulnerable for an attack.

I smiled and got into position and kept my balance shifting on both my feet equally and when Rin attacked I noticed he came from my left and in such a wide manner giving me time to adjust and block his blade. "Your attack was too wide; I know your trying to not get too close but even wide attacks like that can get you into trouble; your opponents can find openings like that and will take it. Try again."

Rin cursed as we got back into position and this time he tried to get closer to me and I smirked impressed as he also tried to use his flames to keep me from getting any closer to him. "Better?"

"Somewhat...sorry Rin." I quickly deflected his blade with mine and when his got scent flying into the air I moved swiping his feet out from under him causing him to land on his back and I grabbed his blade crossing it over mine and held them a millimeter from his throat seeing the pain and slight glare I got. "I said sorry; I aim to win or at least stay alive."

I helped Rin up. "Every one of us can fight in both close and long distance combat; many of those you fight in our world can all fight that way and that's without their powers. If they use their powers then you need to be able to use your flames to at least protect yourself; not every lord is on Satan's side. But when and if this fight ever happens here in this world; there is a chance your going to be fighting alone without any of us being able to help." I watched as he got back into position and then he attack again as I blocked with my blade and deflected him again.

I wasn't trying to hard until I knew that he had it down on how to properly fight. I side stepped and stopped his blade from getting any closer; I could see him fighting to stay in control of his flames and I got serious. "Your flames are like a muscle; imagine them, feel them move like a muscle."

"How did you learn to control your flames?" Rin spoke panting as he was getting his breath again and I started fighting him again showing him how to get into a better fighting style.

I thought back to when I had actually controlled my flames and smiled softly. "One of my older siblings had come for a visit when I must have been around eight I believe?"

Attitcus chuckled from his spot. "Your big brother Flynn the eldest of all of my children actually; he had come for a visit he hadn't seen any of us in a few years. During the visit a person who had feelings for me had come after me during the night, sadly the children had also been attacked and sent flying in all directions when we were outside having dinner and sadly the person sent an attack at Mayumi...she remembered what she was learning when trying to control her flames; she did great as she burnt the attack and then got the attacker backed into a corner by making a circle of flames around them."
