Jellal's POV

Erza runs wakes up early and runs to the weapon stand every morning. Any second she has she is down there. I tend to go every day too but not as frequent as her.

"Im leaving now!" She calls through our apartment and slams the door. I should also go down.

It is seven o'clock in the morning so the hall isn't too full, in fact only six people are there.

I look up at the rating board and see that Erza is ranked number four on the chart. A man named Laxus takes second place. He is from District 3, he arrived here with a girl called Mira who is third on the chart.

This Laxus guy is very skilled with electronics. well since he is from the Electronic District it makes sense. He wrapped up some wire around some dummies then sent an electrical current down the wire which tured the dummies to charcoal in seconds.

"Erza?" I turn to the red head who just went and picked up a bow. She lifts her head but shows no expression.

"What?"she replies. I smile lightly at her.

"We shouldn't show this guy our aces. I'd put the bow down if I were you..." she rolls her eyes.

"Since when was there a 'we' in the situation?" She snaps and readies her bow.

"Erza I really think you should wait..." I try to persuade her. She turns her head to face me.

"Why are you speaking tk me?" She questions. She drops her bow and stares at me.

"Because your being stupid." She shoots me a death glare.

"I-I mean you don't want everyone to know how amazing you are at shooting." She places her hand on my Sholder and sighs.

"Then they will know our secret move." I wince as she shoots me a death glare.

"See that chart up there?" She points to the leader board with her armoured finger.

"Your placed ninth out of everyone here. Impress me then I'll listen to you. " She smiles.

I feel my cheeks flush. I swallow the lump forming in my throat.

"Okay." I walk up and grab nine throwing knifes, a hammer and a spear.

Agility and speed are the key to any killer. If your not quick enough you can be stopped. When your in the games you will have enemies who are out there to eliminate you. If your not quick they will see you coming.

I throw all nine knifes at once and each one stabs through the dummy. Three on the head two on the stomach and two on the leg and one on the heart. I the run with my spear to the next dummy and throw the blade swiftly over arm. I pierces through the dummies chest. Lastly I grab the hammer and swing it and knock eight dummies to the floor all at once. Erza stands with her mouth open in awe.

"Y-y" she stutters speechless. She drops the sword she was holding to the ground.

"Wow..." she mouths then looks at me. Her cheeks are bright red.

"How..." She swallow and walks up to me.

"Combat classes." I reply. The hall is beginning to get more crowded as people walk in. Erza keeps staring at me in awe.

"C-can you teach me?" She grabs onto my hands. Her cute little face turns into a pout. I feel my face flush even more.

"Hmm, I dunno." I laugh. She frowns.

"Alright then." Her face lightens up into a smile. I grab a throwing knife and pass it to her.

"At least now we can be friends." I smile to the bubbly red head.

Erza's POV

Jellal is amazing. Beyond amazing. To yake out all of those dummies in a matter of seconds is an achievement. His name moved up on the leader board from eighth to second aswell. He is even ahead of that Laxus guy.

"Take this and throw it at that dummy in the far corner." He smiles. I turn the chrome blade in my hand.

"Thats too far." I pout. He grabs three knifes and throws them. They all hit. One on the head, leg and again the heart.

"Just try it. Pretend every other area besides the part you want to hit is your closest friend. Do you want to hit them?" Jellal suggests.

"No." I reply.

I imagine that the arms and legs are Milianna and that the head and outer body are Kagura. The area I want to hit is the heart. I throw the blade.

It soars a across the hall and pierces into the dummy.

Rip* I hear the slice of the material. I run up to the dummy and sure enough the blade hit the heart but it is hanging out slightly. I turn to Jellal and smile.

"Your aim is good but focus on your distance." He throws me another knife.

"Try and get the blade deeper in to cause a more fatal wound. That way a kill is more likely." I try the blade again but this time my throw has more of a push to it. Again the blade takes flight and in a matter of seconds it hits the dummy.

"Well done!" He congratulates me. A crowd of people have began surrounding us and are staring in awe as I continue to throw the blades.

"Pfft too easy." A man with blonde hair pushes past the crowd. He holds some knifes and throws swiftly.

*stab *stab *stab *stab

Every one of them hit right through the dummy then out again. He has a stern look on his face and no smile

"Names Sting." He growls then walk to the back of the hall.

"Just ignore him." Jellal smiles at me.

"Who was that?" I question.

"Sting eucliffe, District 1." He sighs and holds his head.

"He will be a tough one to beat." I sigh and resume my knife throwing.

"Indeed, he takes first place on the leader board."

"Huh?" I tilt my head. Jellal lifts his head and sighs.

"Erza your still placed fifth. Keep training." Jellal stands up and walks out the door. His expression just changed from the happy man he was into a more serious tone.
