Evening Banquet III

If anybody asked if 'running' was a skill of mine, I would have said yes. Even before the world's sudden destruction and scenarios, I have always been a runner. I also meant that figuratively and literally. I had always run away from any that I find to be . . . A waste of time. So, you can see why at this very moment, while we are fighting in a banquet with tuxes and dresses on, I am running from the crazy redhead.

"Stop running!" She huffs as she loses her breath. I slow down to a stop and turn to look at her.

"Ready?" I ask out loud. She glares at me, "Yeah!"

I start running in her direction. When she realizes that I wasn't stopping in front of her, she starts to run to where exactly I wanted her to run. Mister Dark and Sexy.

"Babe! S-save me!" She screams with tears in her eyes. I practically laugh at her dramatic play. She should be an actress. Vincent and Mister Dark and Sexy had to leap apart without hurting the redhead. She was just about to jump to him when he sides steps to the side. She falls face first.

"S-save me!" She pouts at him. I was running up to them, "Sorry, but she's mine." I give him a lazy grin. He stares at me not answering, however, he did point his black sword at me.

"I may not like her, but she is my partner." He coldly says. However, someone had other plans.

Vincent dashed in and swung at the his face, "Take her. I will cover you." As soon as they were far from us girls, redhead screams and jumps me. We roll on the floor with her trying to stab me and me pulling her hair and keeping the knife away from me.

"You ruined my plan!" She seethes. What is this woman talking about?!

"I could have had the strongest guy fall in love with me!" We both let go and circle each other. She managed to stab my forearm, so now I'm tracking blood on the white marble floor.

PASSIVE SKILL: [AUTO-HEALING] IS ACTIVATED.

"You're crazy." I run towards my silver tray, snatch it and point it at her, "No one is going to want a crazy girl like you."

Instead of running to me with her knife, she does something unexpected. She cuts her pinky finger and throws it next to her. In an instant, the cut pinky finger bursts into a big blob before forming a human body. Or I should say, it turned into her doppelgänger. It even had the same knife.

"Nya-Nya-Nya! That's more like it!" Meu cheers from above.

"Great, now there are two crazy bitches."

The redheads circle me, as I try to watch for their movements. The two then began their knife bombardment. If one went up, the other went down. If one tried to stab my heart, the other would try to stab my back. If I manage to kick one, the other would still fight until the other one can get back up. It made me feel happy and sad on the inside. It's almost like I was watching my sister and me, without the redhead and craziness.

"Fucking die!" They yell. They sped up to my surprise. I stumbled and fell on my back. They took the opportunity to grab both my ankles and wrist to pin me on the floor. My tray once again, was knocked out of my hands.

"Ha! We got you now!" They synchronized. The one closest to my face rips my mask off. I can tell she took a minute to look at my face.

"Is that so?" I grin at them. With my mouth, I reach for her wrist and bit hard. She let go and to my advantage, there was no blood, but a deep bite mark on her wrist. It was her clone. I instantly put the clone in chokeholdld. It kicked and bucked under me.

"Ahhh!!!" The real redhead, shoves a knife down my thigh, all the way down to my bone. But I did not utter a scream. Instead, it made me more determined to finish her. I change my chokehold and went straight to snapping her neck. The doppelgänger lays limp against me. The real body suddenly coughs up blood. Guess, it does affect her if her clone dies.

I stand on my good leg and pull the knife out. Although I didn't scream earlier, it doesn't mean I wasn't upset.

"Treat others the way you want to be treated." I grin. And just like what she did to me, I shove the knife straight down her thigh— past the bone. She screams, big fat tears rolling down her eyes,

"YOU FUCKING BITCH--" she passes out.

I breathed out in relief, that I was done with my fight. However Vincent and Mister Dark and Sexy were still at it. Vincent, however, looked like he was on his last bit of stamina. I had an idea.
