My Demons are Worse

Complications

Dialon P.O.V

The next few days were a chore, I'll list why for those at the back. First, i was tired so I was in a foul mood... so were Diablo and Mephisto. Second, a school dance was coming up and I'm being forced to go and finally my closest friend has a Soulstone shard and might have a connection with Salem.

But anyway, I'm watching Pyrrha fighting Mercury, a member of Cinder's team and I notice something odd. Pyrrha is able to move his legs. Previously I had a talk with both Mercury and The other teammate emerald and found out there weapons. Mercury's we're shotgun greaves but the casing wasn't a metal. "I believe he may have metal legs or metal plates underneath his greaves." Mephisto says his opinion and I can't help but to agree. I've gotten accustomed to trust most of what Mephisto says and any battle advise from Diablo.

Mercury then forfeits and Miss Goodwitch calls up the next combatants. Which happen to be Me and Cinder, this'll be interesting. I head to the lockers to get my weapons and I see Cinder. "Hey Cinder, ready for the fight." I ask and she nods. I go to where my locker is as I see her create a pair of swords. "Nice blades, where did they come from." I ask and she giggles. "A woman has to have secrets Dialon." She says and turns around. I grab my combat outfit and zip up the jacket as Cinder readies herself in a very... provocative manner in my general direction. "What in the name of the Burning Hells is she doing" Diablo asks in my head and Mephisto says his opinion. "I believe that she is either trying to distract you and cloud your thoughts to get a leg up, or she's as people nowadays say 'Thirsty' "

I turn a bit so that I can't see her as I holster Vulcan and Hephaestus. I place Bloodmoore on my back as I feel two hands touch my shoulder. "Like what you saw" Cinder says into my ear. I smirk and reply. "Never knew you to be a temptress." I say and she purrs in response. "How about a little bet, whoever loses orders dinner for the two of us." She says and my pride can't say no. "Your On"

We enter the arena and we take our positions. "Begin" Goodwitch declares and I decide to test the waters I get right up and try for an unarmed assault but she blocks with her twin swords. She turn jumps back and connects her swords forming a bow and fires a arrow which I catch. The arrow detonates in my face but I remain unfazed, my aura taking a soft dent. I decide to up the anti by drawing Bloodmoore and using my hellfire. I rush at her not giving her time to prepare and launch an arc of hellfire at her. She takes the hit and stumbles which I take advantage of and cut her twice. She isn't out yet and launches a fireball herself which momentarily stuns me but it am not affected due to Diablo.

I then decide to switch it up and fire a black skull at her. She is shocked but dodges it but I punch her gut with my lightning glove shocking her. She stumbles to the floor but her aura is still going strong. "Must admit, didn't think you were much of a damage sponge." I say and she smirks. "I'm full of surprises" she replies and goes to strike me only to hit a Shade as I call them. "You're not the only one" I say from behind her and go to shoot her with Vulcan but she goes to block. I then trade places with my shade and get a free shot. Vulcan damages her aura a lot but not enough to win so I create a lightning nova and shock her to win the match.

I go to her body that lay on the ground and hold my hand out. "So, about that bet." I say with a smirk and she laughs, accepting my hand. "Come to our dorm at 6 sharp. I'll be waiting." She says and kisses my cheek again causing a blush to appear on my face. "S-Sure" I say and go to take my place back on the sides.

Timeskip

It is 5;50 I am in my room looking at what to wear when I see the perfect outfit. Has red, looks nice, and is comfortable. Perfect. I put it on and see it suites me well. I then teleport outside Cinder's Dorm and knock.
