The lantern shone brightly to burn away the shadows in the room,the planked flooring shinned reflecting the the light in a blurry haze,the sound of light footsteps touched the floor as a young girl trained with a wooden sword.She had raven coloured hair tied in a ponytail,pale skin and wore dark training robes that hung at the waist showing her bare torso which was bandaged up like a tank top.She slashed at the air masterfully,her bare feet moving with each stroke for more efficiency.Her footwork was superb and the speed in her attacks couldn't have been better but as she was about to unleash a final attack she lost her balance and fell off her feat,landing on the hard floor with a ''thud!'.'She sat up rubbing her head with a groan.
It was then she shot to her knees in a sitting position as the door nearby slid open to reveal a tall young man waring a rob simarler to hers that was crossed over his chest lazily to reveal part of his chizled muscle ,tied by a belt.He wore glasses balancing across his nose and his dark hair was tied up in a high pony tail like his student.
''Training hard I see'' The man pointed out cheerfully ''falling on your face and banging the floorboards....tut tut Little blue bird'' He sighed walking over to the knelt girl fidgeting with her sleeves.The girl looked up at her teacher after sighing shortly ''I lost my balance and fell....It's these floorboards,there too slippery!''She complained in annoyance.The man merely chuckled before handing her a cup of blue sloppy looking liquid with a straw sticking out.The girls face lit up as she too it and slurped the drink before giving a short wince straight after.
''Brain freeze ow,but then it's so refreshing,and then it's so pain full...''she moaned between slurps.
''Maybe you should drink it more slowly''he added walking over to jion her ''So,how are things?''Her master replied before slumping on the ground before her.
''It's ok,i'm keeping up with studies to balance out with my training....''The girl replied
''I wonder..''The man trailed off in thought'.
''Daddy?''The girl pressed lightly resting the cup in her hand onto her lap.
''The school is running out of students....It seems the young ones want to learn magic over Martial arts...Cant blame them I suppose S.D.D isn't exactly open in it's options...''Her father replied in a low tone,sounding almost disappointed.
''What about Crest? Theres plenty of people there who want to fight''The girl suggested
''theres a point,maybe I should open the school to the public instead of having it private.....''
''Yeah,that should work''his daughter added after a slurp of her drink.
''Hmmmm...Well keep up the good work''he replied before standing to leave the room ''Oh and Meryl?'' he called back.
''Yeah?'' She replied
''Don't fall on your face again''He said,his light tone returning with a friendly smile.
Meryl gave a pout sticking her tongue out in annoyance as he gave a light chuckle and left the room to leave her alone to her training.
