Pre-match Greetings

Quite a bit of time had passed since I had begun training for the finals of the qualifiers. By now, I had a decent grasp on all the moves that Lisa had taught me as well as what moves to expect from someone who was trained. Even then I could still feel a sense of uncertainty, I felt prepared, and yet it was still difficult to foresee my victory. I pictured myself facing off against Marcus countless times during these 2 months. Each time it ended in my loss, it could just be my own paranoia. But it scared me. I felt like I needed these qualifiers more than anything to test just how much further I would need to train to reach the level that Marcus was at now.

Just as I was pondering these things, the office door opened as Rosalia stepped in.

Rosalia:" Oh you're here already?"

Turning around to face her, I was snapped back into the present.

Daniel:" Yeah... you're here earlier than usual. Something you need to do?"
