Chapter 54

*(Y/N) P.O.V.*

        I watched as Mark approached me, he was wearing full diamond armor and was holding two diamond swords, one in each hand. I quickly used a spell to repair my armor and swords. "We're going to use the same rules as last time, but this time you'll be fighting me" he said with a grin. Despite having just watched me demolish the twins he still seemed confident in his ability to fight me. I nodded, "IAN COUNT US IN" he yelled. I watched as Noah put up yet another forcefield to contain my magic before Ian counted us in.

       

"3, 2, 1, FIGHT" Ian yelled. Mark wasted no time going after me as he quickly rushed towards me ready to stab me. Right before he approached me I teleported behind him, but he saw it coming and nearly stabbed me in the stomach. I quickly got out of the way as he went on offense and began to try and hit me one move after another. Eventually I realized he wasn't going to give me a break and I used my magic to cause the ground to move in a wave like fashion sending him back quite a bit.

        I took this chance to summon hundreds of teleportation orbs, all of which would teleport him hundreds of feet into the sky if they hit him. It was my turn to go on the offense, I quickly began to shoot them at him and watched as he narrowly dodged them, he was smart enough to avoid hitting them with his sword but as the last few approached him he had no choice but to use his swords to block the last two. He threw both his swords at two orbs that would otherwise hit him causing them to both teleport into the sky, leaving him defenseless. I took this opportunity to teleport behind him and try to stab him but he kicked one of my swords out of my hands causing it to land on the ground just a few feet away from him.

       

He quickly grabbed my sword and went back onto offense, I began to block his hits with my sword but he kept getting me to back up. Sooner or later I would be cornered, I was starting to run a bit low on magic so instead of trying to teleport away I used my magic to try and focus on his swords which should still be falling. I continued to barely block his blade until I realized that his swords were close enough to control, I quickly took control of both swords and began to direct them at him. One coming at him from behind and then one from in front of him. He must've heard them because he jumped back to try and avoid them but I used my magic to direct them strait at him causing them to pierce his stomach and back at the same time, ending the fight.

        Everyone but Noah, Chim, Ian and Quentin seemed to be shocked. Once Mark finally respawned he seemed baffled that he had just lost. Noah took down the forcefield and I headed over to them. Finally Quentin broke the silence "EVERYONE HEAD BACK TO YOUR TENTS WE'LL BE GETTING UP AT DAWN" he yelled. Everyone did as he said and began to head back. As Noah, Chim and I were heading back the other people in our group were staring at us. Especially Mark he seemed angry, I guess he didn't appreciate being beat by an eleven year old. Once we got back we all split into our separate tents and headed off to bed.

       

As Quentin had told us the night before, we were woken up at dawn by a loud trumpet, which wasn't too bad at first, until they messed up. I'm not sure whether it was on purpose or not but I'm pretty sure my ears are bleeding. I headed out of my tent and began to put it away, the others in my group were doing the same. Once I finished packing up my tent I strapped it to my horse before heading to get breakfast. On the way there I spotted Noah and Chim and headed over to them.

        "Good morning" I said, surprisingly I wasn't tired this morning.

       

"Morning (Y/N)" Noah mumbled quietly, Chim didn't even respond. I decided to let them enjoy their 'silence', it was actually pretty loud due to all the soldiers talking amongst themselves. Once we got our food we ate it rather quickly and before we knew it, it was time to go.

        "EVERYONE GET READY, WE'LL BE LEAVING IN FIVE MINUTES" Ian yelled. Everyone did as they were told and in no time we were on our horses traveling towards the Emerald Kingdom. Mark didn't seem to be as angry as before but he seemed to avoid me, as though he was embarrassed, but then again if I was a grown man I don't think I'd appreciate being beat by an eleven year old girl either.

       

Nothing interesting happened as we traveled towards the Emerald Kingdom, for the most part no one spoke aside from the occasional small talk to break the silence. We didn't stop for lunch today since we needed to get to our position as soon as possible in order to set up camp. At about six in the afternoon we finally arrived. The huge walls that surrounded the Emerald Kingdom were visible and we stopped, surrounded by the forest. Quentin and Ian had made sure to keep their distance from the enemy kingdom, we were far enough away that they wouldn't be able to hear or see us but not too far away that it would be more than ten minutes on horse.

        Once everyone had arrived Quentin and Ian began assigning tasks. Our group was supposed to help set up the tent where the wounded would be taken. It took quite awhile as we needed to actually set up the huge tent and then set up the area for medical supplies and for the wounded to lay down. We finished about an hour and a half later and went to go get our dinner. Everyone seemed to be tired from today and tomorrow we'll have to go into battle. I sat down next to Noah and Chim as we ate our dinner, the rest of the group still kept their distance from us. Almost immediately after dinner was finished we were told to go rest since we had to be well rested for the battle tomorrow. We all went our separate ways and entered our tents which were set up by a different group this time before going to sleep.
