Collided worlds

Chapter 30

After we left the ball 10 hours ago, the guys asked us questions regarding everything. I filled them in on the rules of my 'world'. Asher said i could use some more training considering he didn't trust Garrett wouldn't play dirty. He wanted me prepared for anything and as did i which is why, we found ourselves in his yard, training along with the guys.

I stood in the field with Asher, the sun shining down on both of us. I held a sword in my hand, the hilt wrapped tightly around my palm. Asher stared at me with a mixture of curiosity and excitement, holding his own sword awkwardly in his hand.

"Okay, Asher," i said, "let's start with the basics."

I demonstrated a simple thrust, lunging forward with your sword. Asher watched intently, then attempted to mimic my movement. His thrust was clumsy, but i could see the determination in his eyes.

"Good job," I smiled encouragingly. "Now try a parry."

I swung my sword at Asher, and he lifted his own to block the attack. He was slow at first, but as he gained confidence, his movements became quicker and more fluid. I watched as he began to anticipate my movements, his sword meeting mine with increasing accuracy.

As the lesson continued, i guided Asher through various sword techniques, showing him how to strike with precision and how to defend himself against an opponent. His skills were improving with each passing minute, his movements becoming smoother and more precise.

Finally, i stepped back and watched as he performed a series of attacks and defenses, his sword flashing through the air with grace and power. There was pride beaming in his eyes, realizing how far he has become in a matter of minutes.

"Nice job." I bit my lower lip, a smile forming on my face. I was proud of him,  proud of us.

Asher grinned, his face beaming with excitement and pride. "Thanks. I couldn't have done it without you."

"Round two?", i questioned, earning a nod from him. "Okay. Give me your best. Don't go easy on me."

Asher's POV

Katherine stood in front of me, her sword held loosely in her hand as she waited for my attack. Taking a deep breath, i charged forward, sword raised high.

Who knew this could be fun?

As i swung my sword at her, she effortlessly sidestepped my attack and stroke me with a quick counterattack. I stumbled back, not surprised by her speed and precision. She was good, perfect.

"Good try," She said with a grin. "But you need to watch your movements more closely."

She stepped forward, her sword at the ready, and began to demonstrate various attacks and defenses. As she moved, i watched her body closely, trying to pick up on any weaknesses in her movements without being distracted by her perfect fucking curves.

Taking notice of her weakness when she hesitated to do one move, i stepped forward and blocked her attack. The surprised look on her face proved that i was improving.

"That was...good." She smiled, "You're getting the hang of this."

As the lesson continued, she guided me through various techniques, showing me how to block their swords. It looked easy in movies but it was not. Precision and timing were everything.

We trained for a few more hours with the swords, getting better and better every minute. Katherine was sure Jason would ask for a sword combat because he was good at it. According to her, Jason was the second best assassin after her, he was as good as she was with swords. But Jason wouldn't win this shit, no fucking way. Whilst he was trained, i have been trained harder. He was old, thus weaker and slower. And that right there, was my advantage.

"Let's continue." Katherine pressed, she was determined to win and so was i but if we tire ourselves, the enemy would have the upper hand.

"No, darling." I shook my head, "We will continue in about one hour or something. You need to eat and so do i."

"Yeah guys." Theo jumped in our conversation, "Im starving."

"I'll order pizza. You guys go inside with Katherine and put a movie on." I said, taking out my phone before dialing the number of pizza delivery services.
