Two wandered around for about two days, looking for her target. The island was quite large, and she had no problem finding water. The several animals and pre-packed food would be plenty for her, if she didn't eat too much. 

Seemingly unbeknownst to her, her target was watching her from the bushes. He was contemplating when he should reveal himself, as cocky as he is. He thought that sneak attacks were underhanded, and only real men challenge their opponent, even if they're a little girl.

"Hey! Little girl! Isn't your number 101?"  He stood up and yelled, facing Two. The brunette looked up at the man.  She stood up from the rock she was sitting on and faced him. She already knew he was there.

"Yes it is."  She didn't think that this guy was so strong. He wasn't a threat to her, especially if she shifted. She hated shifted, but that's probably what it would take to defeat this guy.

"Ha! You admitted it! But why don't you speak up? Your opponent can barely hear you!" the man started, taking a couple of steps closer until he was a few yards away.

"Please forgive me. Are you here to take my tag?"

"Absolutely! but we have to duel! I will draw your blood in a fair but competitive manner!"  Two was rather uncomfortable being near this guy. He was too loud, too flamboyant, and his personality was all over the place. "Please allow me to make the first move!"

The man lunged at her with dual swords and quickly attacked. It left enough time for her to dodge out of the way, and in the spare time she had, she took off her cloak and threw it aside. She didn't want to ruin it. The next time he attacked, she jumped and stepped on him to propel herself upwards into the air. She landed a few feet away from him, and he got up after that.

"Good for a little girl! Unfortunately, you won't be passing this phase!"  He lunged again, and this time, he scraped Two's arm with one of his swords. The wound wasn't that deep, but it was bleeding a lot. Scowling, the girl reciprocated with an attack, attempting to break his shin, but the swords kept her from doing that. She instead landed a blow to his side, which was effective enough. He skidded a few feet away, and before he could regain his balance, Two appeared before him and punched him hard in the stomach, making him cough up blood. Two jumped back to her original spot. 

"Before I do more, could you please give me your-"  She abruptly stopped talking as the man attacked again, unexpectedly. A scrape on the shoulder and a cut on the shin was the result of Two's neglect to pay attention to her opponent.

"Being knocked around a few times isn't going to stop me! Take this!"  Running at full speed, the red-headed man came up to Two and clobbered her head with an item in his hand. A large stone.

Any ordinary child would have been knocked out from the sheer force of the blow, but Two only gained a bloody wound and throbbing headache. She tumbled on the ground and into a large tree, which made her lose her breath. Almost immediately she stood up, but she was bent in an unnatural way, as if she had broken her back. 

The red-headed male made the biggest mistake when he stopped an questioned the smoke billowing around the girl, gathering around her feet and rising. Instead of running, he listened to her breathing get heavier and watch as her skin seemed to dance around her. When she looked up, she had a wicked smile on her face, and he could tell immediately that her eyes had changed.

The next four words she muttered sent chills down his spine, and after that, he immediately regretted revealing himself from those bushes.

"Now you've done it."
