Mistake

The girl with the club swung her claw through the air at nothing. She then landed on all fours and faced away from the boy with dark silver hair. She looked like she was trying to smell something out as if she were a beast trying to hunt down her prey.

The boy with dark silver hair dashed toward the girl with the club as he thought. "Now I have to wait for it to recharge again." His left foot landed behind the girl with the club. He adjusted the placement of his hands on his spear. He brought his right foot forward as he swung his spear downward in a diagonal left to right motion toward the girl's back. He thought as he swung his spear at the girl with the club. "The longer I stop things the longer it takes to recharge."

Right before the spear struck the girl with the club she suddenly disappeared from where she was located.

The boy with dark silver hair thought. "She can still teleport in her state?!"

A growing shadow loomed over the boy with dark silver hair. He immediately jumped backward.

The girl with the club landed in front of the boy with dark silver hair. She was on all fours again as she howled out and swung her club toward his chest.

The boy with dark silver hair immediately reacted and blocked the club with his spear.

Both the club and spear immediately halted each other's movement as soon as they collided. Neither weapon was able to overpower the other.

The girl with the club swung her claw toward the dark silver haired boy's chest.

The boy with dark silver hair smirked as he thought. "I can use it again." Right before the claw could reach his chest, he thought to himself. "Stop." He dashed straight through her body and then quickly spun around on his feet. He raised his spear up for a forward thrust and then thought. "Resume." He jabbed it into the girl's back.

The spear went through the back of the girl with the club. She screamed out in pain.

Blood splattered onto the boy with dark silver hair, and he thought. "Her blood shouldn't be able to make me transform. Only a Queen can do that, right?"

The girl with the club said in pain with her regular voice. "It hurts... It hurts so much..."

The boy with dark silver hair released the handle of the spear from his grip as he instinctively reached out to touch the girl with the club as he said. "Are you ok-?!"

The girl with the club spun around and swung her claw toward the dark silver haired boy's face.

The boy with dark silver hair immediately stopped himself and jumped backward right before the claw could strike his face. The claw flew past his face.

The boy with dark silver hair landed on the ground behind him as he looked at the girl with the club and thought. "She almost got me again... When she said she needed help I instinctively reached out to help her... I see what Father meant now when he said monsters can be a difficult opponent to face. If I hadn't trained with everybody back home for so long, I would've already died by now..."

The girl with the club howled as she dashed toward the boy with dark silver hair.

The boy with dark silver hair readied the spear that he thought was in his hands but was no longer in his hands. He looked at the spear sticking out the back of the girl with the club and thought with disappointment. "Why did I let go of it...?"

The girl with the club swung her club toward the face of the boy with dark silver hair.

The boy with dark silver hair dodged to the left managing to completely avoid the club. He then grabbed the handle of the spear with both of his hands and ripped the spear out of the girl's back.

The girl with the club screamed out in pain as the spear was ripped out of her body. Blood dripped from her back onto the ground.

The girl with the club said in pain with her regular voice. "I asked you... to help me...? She stumbled on her feet. She turned her head and looked at the boy with dark silver hair as she said. "So, why are you... hurting me so much...?"

The boy with dark silver hair backed away from the girl with the club but kept his spear readied in his hands.

The girl with the club had a confused expression on her face as she watched the boy with dark silver hair back away from her. She asked the boy with dark silver hair. "What's wrong...? Why aren't you... saying anything...?" She turned her body and faced toward the boy with dark silver hair.

The boy with dark silver hair stopped backing away. He gripped the handle of the spear in his hands tightly as he looked at the girl with the club and said. "That's because-"

The boy with dark silver hair suddenly stopped himself as the girl with the club charged toward him. She swung her club toward his chest.

The boy with dark silver hair dodged backwards as soon as he saw the club swing toward him.

The club suddenly stopped. The girl with the club asked. "Because what?"

The boy with dark silver hair thought as he looked at the club. "She stopped herself? But why?" He swung his spear toward the girl's left hand which was the hand that carried the spear. "Because you keep attacking me!"

The girl with the club swung her claw toward the dark silver haired boy's face as he swung his spear toward her left hand. But her claw suddenly stopped in midair before it could make contact with the boy's body. The girl the club said with realization as she looked at her claw. "I'm attacking you...?"

The spear made contact with the girl's left hand. It smashed directly into her fingers causing pain to course through her hand. She dropped her club as a result and immediately jumped backwards.

The girl looked at her left hand. Her hand was intact since it was covered with armor, but she could feel pain surging through it. She looked over at the boy with dark silver hair angrily.

The boy looked at the club and thought. "That takes care of her weapon." He turned his head to look at the girl as he thought. "Now I just need to take care of the-"

The girl's claw slashed the left side of the dark silver haired boy's face. His blood splattered onto the ground. There were five long claw marks that went down the left side of his face, one of which went straight through his left eye.

The girl looked at the dark silver haired boy angrily and said. "I stopped my body... but you still attacked me anyways...! You don't even... want to help me, do you?! You just want... to kill me, don't you?!" She swung her claw toward the dark silver haired boy again. But this time she aimed for his neck.
