Alivia watched as Peter talked closely to the four boys in front of him. Crossing one arm over the other her mouth twisted in distaste.

From the looks of it the boys were talking in a swift manner which irritated Alivia beyond belief since she could not pick up on a single word.

"What's the matter?" A voice questioned. Looking up, her eyes rested upon none other than Newt. "Why aren't I apart of that conversation?" She asked looking away from the boy and back to the group in front of them.

Shrugging his shoulders, Alivia could feel the gaze of Newt's on the side of her face. "Don't know doll, how about you ask?" He wheezed out in a laugh. With her tongue clicking her mouth twisted into a smirk. "Fine." She muttered curtly walking towards the five.

"Wait! Livia?" Newt called out in surprise. Without looking back she calmly walked towards them, attempting to stay leveled headed in the situation. Once Alivia had made it to them, the four boys walked away from Peter.

"Why wasn't I apart of that?" "Pardon?" "I was there, why wasn't I apart of the discussion of it?" "Well, you aren't doing that again. That's why." He said curtly walking past her.

"What?" Alivia muttered in disbelief. "Why not?" She asked turning swiftly on her heel as she walked right behind him. "What do you mean why not? Alivia you were tackled to the ground." He remarked in disbelief.

Taken back Alivia could feel her heart pick up speed. "So? I wasn't hurt." She pestered. "Alivia it was a stupid idea from the beginning. You-" "I can't what?" "You can't protect yourself." He said turning quickly on her.

Blinking Alivia felt her eyes fall to the ground. Her voice faltering into nothing. "You're wrong." She said quietly." "What?" Looking up she pushed all of her anger aside. "You're wrong and I'm going to prove you wrong." She said pushing past the boy in attempt to walk away.

"Alivia that's not what I meant." He said grabbing her forearm. Pulling away from him she gave him a skeptical gaze. "What else could you have possibly meant?" She asked narrowing her eyes down at him.

"Not what you're thinking." He said scanning across her face. "I just don't want you to see you get hurt like you were when you first got here."

"You won't have to." She said turning over her right shoulder and walked further and further away from him.

"Ali I don't thenk this is a swell idea." Ace said fear rising up into his eyes. "Pft I think this is a great idea." She said picking up the sword that she had gotten on her first day of training there.

Every since the slightly mishap with Peter, Alivia had been avoiding him. Which basically meant that she had been spending a lot of time with her pal Ace.

"It's just he's really good." He piped up from beside of her. "And I am also really good." She remarked in a matter-in-fact tone.

"I could beg te differ." He said. "Ah c'mon you've never see my do anything like this before." She said turning towards her opponent.

"Exactly." He muttered exasperated. There, who stood in front of her, was Mathew. Rumors have it that he had never lost a fight before. But the truth was he never went against anyone that was decently good.

Before she knew it, the fight had started and she could feel the blood in her veins pumping with adrenaline. Clashing both swords against each other Alivia looked him dead in the eyes.

"Not bad for a girl," he remarked. With her right eye twitching she pushed her chest up, throwing him to the ground. With a quick swing Alivia had in her possession both swords.

"What is happening over here?" A voice hollered. Grabbing her attention she looked over at Peter who had pushed his way through the crowd.

Feeling a smirk tug on her lips she watched his face contort with confusion. Opening her mouth she went to say a remark.

But as her life has gone, that did not go as plan. Feeling an impact on her stomach she flew back, the swords scuttling to the sides. Swiveling her head to the side she dodged the punch heading straight for her head.

Bringing her upper body up she swiped her right leg in a full rotation. Hearing a thud she stood quickly going in front of the boy on the ground. Yet there was a blow to her face sending her straight to the ground.

Bringing her up head up, there laid one of the swords. Grasping one in her left hand, she flipped to her back and did a kick up. Sending an elbow to Mathew's face he recoiled to the ground.

Without a thought of hesitation she brought the sword in front of his throat. "Game over." She said smoothly das she saw the look of shock and fear flash across his face. Dropping the sword to the side, she walked away.

Not long before long into her mission on walking away, she heard the thumps of foot steps. "Livia," a voice said and then Peter appeared in front of her.

Stopping in an instant she recoiled back from him. "Your nose." He said. Hesitating momentarily he brought up his hand and up softly bopped her on the nose with his index finger. In an instant the pain in her nose disappeared.

"Thanks." She muttered slightly smiling. "Listen Alivia, I'm sorry about what I said to you a couple of days ago. I wasn't saying that you couldn't handle yourself. It's just-" "I knew what you meant I just wanted to show you and everyone else that I can fight."She said peering up at him.

Giving her a smile he shook his head in awe. "Awivia!" She heard a voice holler. Twirling she saw Will running towards her with wide arms. "My sistwer is the bomb!" He hollered grasping onto her leg. "I hav'ta admit that was deadly." Ace said laughing as he pulled up behind Will.
