Jessamea's POV

I raised her own weapon against her, it was so wrong but felt so right. Fear filled her eyes and I smiled. I started to bring it down when metal caught it. I was flipped backwards and landed hard. Cold metal fell around my throat and I couldn't breath. Her eyes were colder than my own. I chocked and gasped, then began to struggle.

"P-P-Please." Her eyes softened. I felt myself come back to reality. Moonlight helped DX up and turned back to me. Her eyes cold and mean again, those very eyes once told me I'd be a great leader. I took a step forward, but horrific pain in my back stopped me. I felt warmth trickle down my back, my own blood.

"What happened? Did I hurt you DX?" I saw anger fill her eyes, it was cold and furious. I moved my hand to my back and saw blood on my fingers. The sword I had used laid on the floor not far from me. I moved slowly to it, I could feel eyes staring into me. Anger rushed over me, I could tell what Moonlight was thinking about me. Everything seemed to go blurry again as I ran at Moonlight.

I heard the metal on metal, felt myself go backwards and get back up. Saw bits of the fight, but I was to caught up in the furry. Thought I heard Yuri and Jack. Saw myself land hard and felt myself get pinned. I saw when I swung the sword to get the person pinning me down off. I heard the low growl of pain. Heard a scream, only to recognize that it was mine. Heard DX yell, what was pinning me down vanished. Then I finally opened my eyes.

Jack and Yuri helped me up. My arm was bloody and cut up. Looked over and saw DX holding Moonlight back. A large cut through her chest showed as blood soaked her shirt. She tried to jerk away from DX but she wasn't strong enough. I let out a sigh of relief, only to realize that Jack and Yuri were basically holding me to the floor. I felt so weak...........
