65 Trial Tower (2/2)
Fighting can be heard as the sound of metal clashing against each other fills the world around it with echoes of the fierce training going on, a wounded youth covered in cuts and slashes bears a bright smile on his face as he charges at the woman who saved his life those years ago.
As the two swords clash against each other yet again the bracelets around Heathers two arms and legs shine bright gold, these power restraints were developed with the intention to aid them whenever I go berserk again. Now they are using it to take turns training the youth Derrick, as he falls to the ground he coughs up a mouth full of blood before struggling to his feet. Planting the sword in the ground at his feet he finds his footing, looking up at the serious face of Heather his bright eyes shine with a drive to improve as within those eyes he sees his wife Layla.
During his training Heather has mentioned his wife to him again and again, he was asked why he wanted to grow more powerful. Why! He asked himself this again and again as he was brutally beating to the ground time and time again. Until he came up with the answer it was so that he would never have to look on as his own mother and father were eaten in front of him only then too watch as his best friend Layla also lost her mother.
He vowed to gain the power to kill anyone who would take the life of his loved ones again. As he was saved by Heather he forgot his want for power instead what replaced it was a drive to do anything in his power to give thanks to his savior, these beatings reawoken that hunger and his desire for power to protect his wife and future loved ones.
”Take a break for now Derrick eat the pills provided by Rose before we continue, the month of training with me is coming to an end so I hope you go all out after you recover. This places energy is so concentrated that even I feel pressure and while fighting you I have even become stronger, as I am just part of the ships maintenance team this time fighting you will give me an edge over the others.”
”So I have to thank you Derrick, as you strive to gain power to protect the ones you love I too move forward to be useful to my Master. Yes I said Master he is both my Husband and Master as a member of the Ancients I left behind everything to become selected. Hahahaha listen to me talking about this with a child who has probably never even slept with a woman even if he has a wife!” Said Heather as she laughed at the panting youth who is stuffing his mouth with pills.
”Lady Heather I have already consummated my marriage before I left the Village, don't look down on my love for Layla!” Said Derrick standing to his feet with his weapon raised.
Looking at his determined face Heather smiles when she heard his response she has already decided to pick his youth as one of her protectors. He has already reached the Heaven Realm with the high concentration of elemental energy in the area aiding in his growth, even she can feel it effecting her after she put on the bracelets. Once she sees the youth running at her her smile fades as she turns serious one last time ready to finish off this training, a face to face clash between the two puts his face close enough to see her smirk. Finding this smirk strange he puts up his guard against any tricks, during this month of training he has gotten a grasp on her fighting style as well as her many changing facial expressions yet today he saw her smirk for the first time.
Before he could ask he feels a intense pain in his abdomen, looking down he looks to see the hilt of her sword deep in his stomach the sound of his ribs breaking is all he hears before his vision blurs into darkness.
”Did him talking back force you to finish his training or was that my fault Heather!” I said coming behind Heather hugging her from the back, as I rest my chin on her shoulder my hands move up towards her chest. A loud smack forces my hands down from groping her chest the smug smile on her face fades as she catches the falling body of Derrick before placing him in Valara's waiting arms.
”I will Treat him well Heather, you got yourself quite a talented guard here. Now I will leave you to alone for I already had a month full of indulging, it helped melt away a lot of my stress you should take this time to do the same Heather!!” Said Valara as she walked away into a rift opened by the tower leading into a new area while still carrying the knocked out youth. Not waiting for her to fully disappear and before Heather could reply to her I melt off her clothes and jump at her like prey. As a playful yelp is heard loud unrestrained moans is all that is heard that echo off into the distance.
