"Well,well,well, nice to see you here." Elizabeth's familiar said.

The fuck? What kind of familiar said "Well" three times like a movie villain. Oh God.

"What's your name? I've never met you be-oh. You're Clay correct?" I said.

He looked stunned for a second. How did she know, his face seemed to say. Well...I don't know. I looked at Lilith and she just pointed at her arm, where I drank her blood. I looked at her with a confused expression, how was that supposed to answer my question? And then I remember how she said we would be connected. As in, body, mind, and soul, so basically any information that she wanted me to know, I automatically knew.

I quickly cast the telepathy spell and spoke to Lilith.

So,was I right?

Yes. Now can we focus.

Aww. I wanted to play around a bit more, plus the spar hasn't even started yet.

We looked at the clock and saw that we had 30 seconds until we could attack.

So? Should we be offensive or defensive? Your choice.

She smiled Offensive of course.

"We'll be offensive." I said out loud.

"What? Who said we'd agree to that?" Clay interjected.

"It's fine, Clay, let it be." Elizabeth said.

"So you'll be on defensive, got it?" I said.

"And you'll be offensive." Elizabeth replied.

Lilith smirked and said "Just like in bed."

I felt my face heat up and we all looked at Lilith with astonishment written all over our faces. She looked indifferent, as if what she said was normal.

Focus Lilith said.

I immediately saw that we had five seconds until the spar began and that Elizabeth and Clay were still standing there like idiots. I smiled.

Nice one. As soon as I said this the buzzer buzzed and we immediately attacked. I slashed my sword at Elizabeth but she backed away enough that I just barely got her.

It seemed like Lilith was doing well with Clay. I heard explosions and felt Lilith's magic in them. I teleported behind Elizabeth and I slashed her with Lucifer. Lucifer absorbed the blood. That would never get old.

To my dismay, I saw it almost heal immediately. I looked at her and she had a smile on her face. Did she get stronger? Or was Lucifer just not working?

Feed your intentions into Lucifer or he won't be as effective.

Oh.

I mentally slapped myself for forgetting that crucial piece of information. I ran to her and made it look like I was trying to hit her chest, then I spun around and hit her leg.

Break it. I fed my intention into Lucifer. I saw her astonished look before she fell. Blood was seeping everywhere, her leg broken and bent at a weird angle.

"Clay!" She exclaimed.

I turned around in time to see Clay hit Lilith with such force that her neck jerked back. I gasped and prayed that she was okay. But then I looked closer, it seemed as if she was laughing, she seemed to be enjoying this. I immediately knew she was okay. Clay took this chance to make a break for Elizabeth.
