Alice's P.O.V.
"Ember, today is the day." I said grabbing my bow Exalibus. I can't use the real exalibus, that would be too unfair, she would never land the hit she needs to take the exam. "I'll hit you Alice." Ember said her voice filled with confidence, "Well then, let's begin shall we."




I grabbed three arrows and fired them all at Ember, she managed to dodge them. Then she suddenly disappeared. I swung around behind me and tilted my head on a side to avoid the arrow that would've punctured a hole in my skull. "Intent to kill, nice." I smirked. Oh no, I'm becoming like Adrian! "It's my turn Ember!" I began running in a circle around Ember so quickly I created images of myself. Ember looked totally baffled. I dropped jumped into a tree and fired about 4 arrows at her. She dodged two, but one hit her in her neck, the other in her rib.



"ARGHHH!" Ember cried out. It was then I realized she had put up her bow, "Why did you put away your weapon?" I asked her totally confused. "So I could do this!" Suddenly Ember's hand began to glow a bright orange, and I mean a blinding bright orange, I raised my hand to shield my eyes and then jumped up to avoid the arrow that would have punctured my lung. "You're too predictable Ember!" I shouted. It was then I saw Ember in front of me as she fired an arrow at my head which I barely managed to dodge.



"When will you learn child!" I screamed. Then I felt an arrow hit me in the center of my back, and I saw the cold, uninviting ground come rushing up to me, as I blackness engulfed my vision.
