The fighter

Henry could not believe it. The horrendous creature squeezed him so hard he was feeling sick. While that someone was crossing the corridor in a rush, the teenager pushed hard with his legs to the beast's back. It was futile. All he managed to get is to turn over and lie facing the ground.

In this situation, he couldn't barely see a thing. His head was getting wet from the moisture of the monster's mouth. Suddently a there was a voice from behind, sounding so fine and secure, that damned the demon. There was a sharp sound of metal (and something else) against flesh. His savior's work was done within less than a seccond. Suddently the arms that stretched against him were loose and he could get from under that mass of flesh and scales. Not very easily, as it was so large and heavy.

With a sigh of tiredness, he finally got free from under the moster. He felt specially weak. Finally he turned over and felt his body as heavy as that disgusting thing.

What Henry saw as he looked up was Elsa.

But she was not the Elsa he had met minutes before, the dark-haired girl with rose hoody jumper and black leggings that appeared a bit shy in front of so many people. The eyes that met with Henry's were maybe those of the real Elsa.

Elsa was a trained fighter and a skilled wind sorcerer. Better put, a seccond-grade student of the Fantasy High School with a great talent. With very smooth movements, she sheathed her two long assassin daggers and drew a hand at the stunned boy that was lying on the ground.

"Are you ok?" she said with a sweet voice.

It was unbelievable that someone with such a charming tone and so soft blue eyes was really a killer, Henry thought. But he tried to answer to his words, and couldn't.

"I see". Poor boy, you're very weak from that monser's poison. If I don't heal you, you could be dead in secconds.

Elsa reached for his body and both of them fused in a hug. There was a chill on his back, and for a moment he felt completely numb. But, most important of all, he was as close as possible to the girl's eyes, and nearly as close to her little lips.

"You mustn't tell anybody about this" she said very calmly, and added with a smile "Not yet".
