Camper stood over the wounded blond, holding his flaming weapon high in the air.
“Well, at least you gave me a good fight.” He said in a low voice, the fire crackling above him, “Goodbye” The flames whistled through the air as Camper swung his axe forward.
Blood splattered the ground, staining the brown earth red. A cold breeze blew through the clearing, the only sound being the slow dripping of blood. Small drops of crimson fell onto the ground, soaking into the dirt and stone.
Slowly, Blue opened her eyes a sliver. Immediately after, they widened in surprise. In front of her, a tattered coat and blue hair swayed in the wind.
“…Vann!”

FIGHT IN THE FOREST (VANN'S RAGE)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The dragon narrowed his eyes as he tightened his grip on the axe’s blade. Dark blood ran down his arms, forming a small puddle at his feet. The axe shook slightly as the Dragon pushed against the weapon, determined to keep it away from the A.I. behind him. Camper frowned down at him, furrowing his eyebrows.
“What the hell are you doing?” He asked in a dark voice, “You’re in my way.”
The blue haired teenager didn’t respond. His head was bowed and his hair had fallen over his face, casting a shadow over his eyes. Slowly, his fingers scraped across the metal as his grip on the axe tightened. Camper scowled, gritting his teeth in irritation.
“What? Did you die on your feet? I said you’re in my wa-”
Vann head shifted upwards slightly, causing his hair to fall away from his eyes. The normal green hue of his eyes had been replaced by a glowing dark crimson. Camper’s eyes widened as he was pierced by the dark glare of the Dragon and he quickly jumped back, pulling his weapon from Vann’s grasp.
The Hacker slid across the dirt, stopping a short distance away from the two in front of him. Holding his weapon out in front of himself he gritted his teeth, tightening his grip on his axe.
What the hell was that? That look in his eyes made me instinctively retreat.
Vann slowly stood up straight, his glowing gaze never leaving the Hacker.
Those eyes…those aren’t the eyes of a normal kid.
Those are eyes of a man ready kill.
“Oi.” The Hacker glared at the teenager, “What’s the hells gotten into yo-” he never finished his sentence, suddenly finding a fist only inches from his face.
Wha-
“GYAAA!!!” Camper flew backwards, hitting the ground hard and rolling backwards. Falling onto his back, his eyes widened in surprise as a shadow fell over him.
“Shit!” A moment later, the sky was lit up in flames. The orange light consumed the earth, turning the grass and stone to ash as the fire danced throughout the clearing. Becoming panicked, Camper jumped out of the flames, his axe held up protectively.
The hell? What the hell’s happening!? Is this even the same kid!?
His blood ran cold as he heard a rustling behind him. Looking over his shoulder, he was unable to react as Vann sped towards him, blue wind wrapped around his arms.
