Hard Fought Battle

Lizius was standing on the water on a piece of Ice he created. He looks towards the water waiting for something to pop out. He then sees the Shark Knight come out of the water coming towards Lizius for a strike. Lizius then creates an Ice shield to block but to no use, as the spear smashes through the shield and Lizius falls back into the water the Shark Knight then drags him to the bottom of the lake as he can swim real fast.

"he must be an expert in underwater combat." thinks Lizius. He then watches as the Shark Knight swims at incredible speed with his trident. Lizius then freezes the lake so he can escape.

Lizius gets to shore and was coughing up water "he nearly killed me down there." The Shark Knight then jumps out of the lake near him his armor was covered in ice.

"not bad prince you manage to get away." said The Shark Knight. He then takes off his helmet revealing he had blonde hair a beard three scars over his nose and he had green eyes. "so what next prince."

"you're defeated," said Lizius he stands up and forms The Ice Golem behind him.

"what would that do to me." said The Shark Knight.

"Nothing I was only using him to distract you." said Lizius as he points to the ground with his left index finger which revealed that he froze the Shark Knights' legs in place. "you fell for my Ice Coffin." The Ice then expands up to the Shark Knight's neck as he was frozen in place.

"damn you got me." said The Shark Knight.

"now then it takes some time for the ice to melt hopefully it's time enough to give this letter to the commander," said Lizius.

John and Cyrus were walking down a hall when they encountered The Tiger Knight.

"huh. Did something happen back home ah what was it oh that's right you're name is Claire right," said John.

"no I came to help take you down," said Claire.

"what but we are with you," said Cyrus.

"I don't care about the situation with Rize this is for my honor," said Claire.

"what are you crazy," said Cyrus.

"no are you bastard. I will kill you, Cyrus Alistair," said Claire.

"damn this stupid woman is crazy," said Cyrus.

"wait you just want him right I can just go?" asked John.

"well my business doesn't concern you so yes," explained Claire.

"what you're ditching me here," said Cyrus who looks confused.

"well she's just mad at you for rejecting her maybe if you apologized to her she might let you live," said John.

"not happening," said Claire.

"never mind your dead man," said John.

"damn what could I do if I just slip in the shadow she knows I just pop out around John again when my mana is gone I have no choice." Cyrus thinks. "all right then." he said.

"what accept your fate and be ready to die," said Claire.

"no I just give this marriage thing a thought," said Cyrus.

John looks surprised by this.

"wait what," said Claire who starts getting red.

"But I have conditions here if I agree to this we must wait I like to get to know a person first before tying down with someone alright," said Cyrus.

"wait that's it I'm fine with that I guess," said Claire.

John then goes to his war and whispers "hey are you sure about this."

"yeah, we have no choice plus I rather not die." He whispers back.

Rize and Horace had marks and bruises all over them.

"you're tough one Horace I never fought someone this good in hand-to-hand combat," said Rize.

"well you're not bad yourself kid if I was a normal person I would be in serious pain," said Horace.

"well that sucks your a shit brick house when punching your face," said Rize.

"well it's like punching a piece of iron with you," said Horace.

"Alright then how about we finish this then," said Rize as he lunges at Horace.

"fine by me Alistair," said Horace who lunges at Rize. They both start whaling each other with punches and kicks without one holding back blooding each other with each hit. Rize then gives him a stiff jump kick to Horace's face. Horace then grabs Rize's head with his hands and gives him a hard right knee to the face. Rize then slams his right fist into Horace's stomach. Horace then grabs his head under his left arm and suplex Rize. Rize then jumps up back to his feet and drops his right elbow to Horace's stomach before he could react. Horace then gets up and gives Rize a bicycle kick with his right leg but Rize counters it by grabbing his right leg and powerbombs him to the ground. Rize then gets to one knee when Horace then gets up and goes for a lariat with his right arm but Rize rolls out of the way and when Horace turns around he walks into Rize's left elbow knocking him down with Rize falling to his back.

"This isn't getting anywhere," said Horace. Rize then jumps back up to his feet with Horace as well. Horace then goes for a right punch but Rize then dodges and grabs his shirt with both hands and delivers a hard head butt to Horace's nose which broke his nose and blood gushed out and made his eyes roll back knocking him out cold.

"damn.." said Rize as he falls back to the ground. Anna and Alexis turn back to their human forms. Alexis grabs the demon sword.

"Are you okay Rize?" asked Anna.

"That was probably the best fight in my life," said Rize with a smile.

"you guys didn't disappoint." said a familiar voice.
