Blink then let it sink

The Attack

"Where is Karaman!" A voice called. Knock knock! Two banging knocks were heard on the other side of the door. I ran up actively to the door. I opened the door. "Karaman! The lord wants to see you and I!" Yelled Theo. "Really, why?" I asked. "No time to explain! He said it is very important!" Theo screamed. We ran through the hallways. Looking for the large doors. Everyone staring at us worried. We were running. Until we finally saw it.

We ran and opened the large doors. "We're here!" Theo bowed in respect. I also bowed. "Stand up Karaman." The lord coughed. When will I tell them I am not Karaman? "Psst, stand up." Theo whispers. I quickly stood up. "We are gonna attack." The lord stood. It was just us 3 in the room until Sowi barged inside. She was furious, but with a worried look on her face.

"She is not ready!" Sowi yelled. The lord raised his arm. "Sowi calm down." The lord spoke. Theo and I was now staring at Sowi. "Then I must come with them." Sowi yelled. "Stop!" Yelled the lord. Sowi froze in shock. "I will talk to you after Sowi." The lord turned to Theo and I. "Bu-" Sowi quickly shut up after the lord looked straight at her.

"We have located Bcorp." The lord turned back to us. "And we're sending you's two as leaders of two army's." We were both shocked. Sowi looked like she was about to explode with rage. "We strike in two days at 7:00am." The lord took a deep breath. "Don't miss it." Theo and I looked at each other."But lord!" Sowi yelled as we walked out. The news spread like wild fire.

The next day

Everyone kept saying "Good luck tomorrow!" Or "I am in your group!"I then went to do my daily training with Sowi. But she was going harder yet sloppy. She was not her usual self. I don't know if I should tell her that.."Sowi?" I called out her name. She stopped. "I told you, you can't speak while we're training!" She yelled right before tripping me over. "Oww!" I groaned in pain. But then I question myself. 'We're?' I thought. She usually says 'you're'. She is training? Something is definitely up.

I was thinking. Is it about that fight, she thinks I'm not ready? She looked frustrated. "Ouch, my head." It seems I landed on my head. Theo said she begged the lord so she can join my group. He finally said yes, but then why is she still worried? Does she care for me? Does she want to protect me? I sat there thinking on the ground. As I then realised I was thinking of all these in my head in a sec on the ground. I looked up.

"Get up!" Sowi yelled. I got up with my hand on my head. "But So-" I quickly got interrupted. I got pushed and I sit there on the ground and Sowi's sword at my face. "You lose." Sowi stared at me disappointed . "Look Sowi, are you feeling okay?" I questioned. I look up and she is already on the other side of the court. Showing her battle form. She clearly did not hear me. I took a deep breathe. As I drifted with rage, because she keeps ignoring and interrupting me. "It is okay. Use this rage in the battle." I spoke to myself. I took a deep breathe.

I usually held my sword straight at her. But instead I put my sword away. She was confused, at the time so was I. I feel like my body is telling me to do this. Disagreeing with my mind. As I looked through what will happened when I do this. I understood why I did it. She started to rush at me. She is gonna rush at me dodge my attack and trip me. I knew her plan too well. Putting my sword away definitely confused her so many things were going through in her head. She looked ready to dodge my attack. But she did not know where I will hit. With no sword she had nothing to dodge.

I am guessing she is too focused on my body she is not looking at my face. Looking where I will move. Not realising I just took a whole metre to the right. Thinking in her head and her eyes. Then she realised..SLAM! She ran in a tree. I laughed. "Better watch that tree Sowi!" I continued laughing. She got up furious. "So you think that is funny!" She stomped my way. I now was worried. She picked up her sword on the ground.

"I'm not going easy any longer." She grabbed a sword that was on her back. She never used it. It looked so perfect. It's curve was done nicely and it shined like a diamond. I looked up confused. "Get your sword out!" She yelled. I took my sword out. "Umm, don't you need to train me?" I asked awkwardly. She ran up at me. But I knew her intention was not to dodge my attack. She held her sword high stabbing it. Next to my head after I dodged it. She kept going for my head. I dodged and dodged. Until she went for my arm. Was she trying to..kill me? "If you keep missing. Go for the arm!" She once told me.

I never understood why. But now I know why. She was clearly trying to get rid of my sword. Until she kicked my leg and I tripped. She looked down at me. I started to freak out. Swinging my sword everywhere. Shutting my eyes. But nothing happened. As I looked up..she was hurt. She was mad. Something was definitely up. As I look down. My sword's forest was covered in blood. She falls to her knees. Covering her arm. Her sword on the ground. Until I realised..I just sliced off her arm.
