The Dream Travel Adventures (Completed)

Chapter 47, A Dangerous Change

Wayra A. K. G.
    As I walk out to the arena, I realize this is it. I fight Aryaw now. This is the moment it supposedly "doesn't end well." I take a deep breath. I have to be calm. I beat her before, I can do it again! Right? Hopefully... I get to the center of the arena and watch as Aryaw does the same.

"Alright ladies, let the match begin!" The voice booms.

I stand there waiting for Aryaw to start. She stands there, waiting for me to start. Neither one of us moves for a long time.

"You know theres a time limit right?" I ask.

She smiles.

"Of course." She answers.

She suddenly rushes forward with her hand outstretched. I dodge to the side to avoid her attack.

As she keeps coming at me with her hand outstretched, I keep avoiding her. What was she doing? She wasn't even using her magic! It was a little creepy. We keep doing close combat, basically martial arts and defense! She smiles as if she knew what I was thinking.
It was like she knew exactly how to beat me. That made me nervous. Suddenly, she swoops forward and trips me with her leg and foot. I fall backward but manage to to a backward roll. I quickly stand back up and come at her, with swift punches and kicks. She dodges all of them! But I have plenty of energy left, and I haven't even used any of my magic, chacra, bending, or Dream Travel powers, so I definatley had backup! We were much quieter than most fights. Most others told the other what they were going to do and how powerful it was going to be, they would brag before attacking. But we hadn't even said anything after I told her that there is a time limit. We were both super fast, strong, and flexible. It was kinda hard for either of us to get the other. I dodge another attack and twist her arm, then grab her feet while she was distracted, using my strength, which I enhanced with my chacra, I start swinging her in a circle and build up momentum. When I finally let go, she sails to the other side of the arena and crashes into the side. But a second later I see her emerge from the dust. She has a creepy smile on her face. Suddenly, as quick as lightning, she runs over to me and punches my side right where the wound I got from the dream is! I fall back several feet and do several back rolls until I scrape to a stop on my knee and foot. I clutch my side. It's throbbing. Why is it hurting? I healed it! She comes at me again with lightning speed and punches me back down as I get up.

"Wow!" The voice booms. "Just look at her speed! I couldn't even see what she did!"

I had speed to, I guess I have to use it again. I close my eyes and tap into it again. I stand up and open my eyes in time to see another attack coming. Using my speed, I dodge her attack and trip her from behind using my foot, I grab her hand and twist it into a lock, using an aikido technique I learned in my world, I twist her to the floor and lock her hand in place. She wriggles but can't get up. But suddenly, she twists her head to my side and blows dust in my face, I close my eyes so it doesn't get into my eyes, but when I open them again, I begin to feel drowsy.

"Amazing! The two of them are just to fast to see everything that's going on!" The host booms again.

No. I can't fall asleep now, I just can't! I mustn't let myself! But it's no use, I can't keep my eyes open. I fall to the ground and think: How did she make me fall asleep like that?

(Daniel's POV)
    I listen to the fight from the infirmary, well as much as I could hear. Old Porlyusica looks at me with a stern gaze.

"You should be resting," she says.

"I've rested enough," I replied, "Besides, I'm not going to be fighting in the matches anyway."

All of a sudden, I get a feeling. Was it a side affect from the medicine? No, it was something different. I felt a little drowsy. Something must have happened with Wayra!
