Tenorils of darkness

Chapter 9

Leona Pov

It's been 2 weeks since we joined the Dawn gang and it's been really a tiring 2 weeks. every single week Andy would bang into my room when I am asleep without knocking and dragged me out of the room or training. And he doesn't even go easy on me. and I thought I went through the hell of training back home in the midnight gang but compared to that this is like living in hell. And the fact I have the skills of an assassin and am the best fighter but still have a hard time proves how strong they really are. "Hey, Leona! wait up" someone called from behind me. I looked to see Emma calling me and walking towards me. I stopped in my heels and waited for her. and she caught up to me. "What do you want girly twin," I said annoyed. "I know you just got training and all and everyone else is busy, Noah and Liam are training with Lucas and Olivia are well I can't find her .... So...... I was... umm wondering if ... you ... your" she looked up at her nervously and I raised an eyebrow at her and asked "what train with you?". she looked at me like a little kid asking for permission. "yes" Emma said. "do you not remember me beating me beating Liam's ass just I don't know 2 weeks ago" I asked giving her a chance to back away from this one more time. "I know you did. that's why I am asking you. You are an amazing fighter the best you know back home and I want to fight you and improve," she told me. I thought so a minute. "Ok. meet you at the training area in 15 minutes. you better not whine when you get your ass kicked. If Liam couldn't beat me, you have no chance," I told her and walked away.

This is going to be interesting I need to admit. that girl Emma never had the courage to do that before. I can't wait to beat her ass I thought getting up from my bed and heading to the training area. And I see her sitting there alone. I guess everyone left for the day. I walked over to her and tapped her shoulder. She jumped up from where she was sitting like a little girl and looked at me "why do you always do that creep around you scared the hell out of me" she told as she looked at me. "Well, I have been an assassin my whole life so that's what I am good at." I told her. "Yeah, that makes so much sense now." she said. "Enough talk let's get this over with." I said as I pulled my blade from behind me. Emma pulled out her rope dart and got ready to fight, "final chance, you will get hurt and I will not go easy on you." I told her. She didn't wait a minute to think before she charged at me and said "I told you I want to train with you and I am not going to back down." she said swinging her rope dart at me. I bend down and dogged the rope. "you won't catch me." I said as I charged at her, no matter what kind of weapon she used she is no match. knowing that was about to get slashed she quickly defended herself and moved back. And quickly attacked me again this time made me lose my balance and knocked one of my twin blades far away out of my hands. That shocked me as she had made me loose my grip on my blade. I quickly backed away and ran to get my blade back that was out of reach but she didn't wait and attacked me, this time she went for my other hand and she knocked out the other blade too and tired both my hands.so she does have better skills than I thought. I guess she is not a spoiled brat but she is still no match for me . she smiled at thinking she had won. "I will admit you are not half bad. You have skills" I told her. "thanks. it's really good to be praised by you" she said. "even if you have skills you are no match for me. I can still beat you without any blades." I said as I tugged the rope and pulled on it hard and she fell hard to the group. I quickly got my hands free and ran in her direction. before she could get up I pinned her down and made use she was unable to move. "so, do you give up?" I asked as I put pressure on her hands. "yeah I do. will you please let me go?" She asked. I let go of her hands and moved and walked away from her to go pick up my blades. "how did you do that." she asked. "you were not concentrating. You forgot to make sure you secured your opponent." I told her. "oh! I see." she said looking a little sad. "you need to work in improving your skills more. Just because you are good at don't mean you are best or perfect at it. I train everyday so that no one can beat me. And also, that I can win against any opponent" I told her as out my blade in their bags behind me "but I heard you had a difficult time fighting that guy from this gang. I hard you haven't beaten him a single time" Emma said as she put her dart rope into her bag. Without thinking I took out the knife I had strapped to my lag and threw it in her direction. It missed her face at hit the wall. she looked at knife at almost took her head off and then slowly looked at me. I glared at her and walked over to her ready to strangle her to death. "WHAT DID YOU SAY?" I asked her as I started to get close to her. "I didn't mean anything by that. its just that a rumor going around" she told me. as she backed away to the wall. moved back with each step I took and soon her back was against that wall. And I was in front of her. "AND WHO IS SPREADING RUMORS ABOUT ME BEHIND MY BACK," I asked her in s deadly tone. "I .... I don't know I just heard it from Liam" she told me terrified. "DID YOU SAY LIAM?" I asked. "yes, it was Liam who told us," she told me closing her eyes in fear. My anger when sky high when I heard he was the one who was saying this. "LISTEN HERE YOU! I CAN BEAT ANYONE IF I WANT WHEN I WANT. BUT THESE PEOPLE ARE NOT IN MY LEAGUE NOT YET, THEY USE MAGIC AND I DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO THAT, BUT IN A NORMAL FIGHT I CAN BEAT THEM JUST AS EASILY AS I DEFEATED YOU." I told her as I reached out for the knife stuck in the wall. And walked away.
