Big Sister Knows Best

Both Lucian and Amara stood there in silence for a bit as the wind blew slowly, Amara's expression was that of confusion but also of concern but Lucian quickly explained to her.

"I don't mean fighting seriously I just want a friendly little spar with you." Lucian explained as he tried convincing Amara.

"Even if it's just a spar it's too risky, if you get injured your parents will never forgive me."

"I just want to compare my power with yours in and actual fight, you just have to spar me a little and as long as we both are careful I won't get injured." Lucian tries to convince Amara with puppy dog eyes.

"Even then I'm not sure about fighting you." Amara speaks with concern.

"Please, just this once." Lucian says with both of his palms together and pleading voice.

"This is going to be a bad idea, fine but just this once and no one else can ever find out about this, Ok?" Amara says in a commanding voice with her arms crossed.

"No one will ever find out about this, I Promise on your life." Lucian said with one hand on his chest.

"Ok good then… Ehhh what do you mean by my life shouldn't it be your life?" Amara is shocked to hear such promise made on her life.

"Well you are the older sister so you should take responsibility of the younger ones actions." Lucian says with a sly smirk.

"You sly little bastard, let's finish this spar and leave, I have to return back to the academy."

"You're leaving today? You're not staying for even a day?"

"I'm on a six day leave and it took me three days to get here so I have to head back today if I want to make it back in time, i also have a lot of work to do during the way back to the academy." Amara speaks with a regretful expression.

"Then let's make this spar memorable so big sister has something to remember back in the academy." Lucian says to her with a big smile and an encouraging tone.

Amaras quickly changes to a cheery expression after hearing Lucian encourage her.

"Let's do this then but remember don't try anything that might get you injured." Amara says to Lucian while walking towards the other side of the field.

Lucian stands on the opposite side of her, getting ready for the spar as he cracks his finger and does some stretches.

"Yup, got it no getting injured, noted." Lucian says while giving Amara thumbs up.

Amara then waves her finger making a small pebble on the ground float in midair.

"As soon as the pebble touches the ground the spar will begin and I will decide when the spar ends." Amara explains to Lucian.

"Understood!!" Lucian shouts to Amara.

Lucian has his gaze fixed on the pebble, He knows that he has no chance of winning against someone like Amara but he just hopes to face the power he saw head on this time, even if he knows that he will lose.

As the hot wind blows through the trees the leaves make a rustling sound with Lucian having his full attention on the pebble Amara closes her hand and even before blink of an eye the pebble hits the ground.

Lucian prepares to attack but before he can even lift his arm the earth beneath him rises up taking him up with it, As Lucian struggles to maintain his footing, a massive ball of dust hits him on the face because of this Lucian loses his footing and falls off but before he hits the ground he launches a massive gust of wind to slow his fall, Lucian manages to land safely on his feet but is let flabbergasted.

'What just happened? In a split second I was sent to the sky then back on the ground.' As Lucian slowly gathers his thoughts he looks at Amara who has her arms crossed and hasn't moved even an inch since the spar started.

"So you have the wind element huh, I always knew our Lucian would be special." Amara says to Lucian with such a tone and expression that Lucian can't decipher that if she is mocking or praising him.

"Right now my brain is spinning inside my head, I couldn't do anything." Amara spoke with a shocked and surprised tone.

"If you focus on something other than the opponent during the fight you are sure to lose even with the best advantage, I wanted to show you the level you one day have to reach in order to even call yourself a sorcerer."

Seeing her power made Lucian realize how truly weak he was compared to an actual sorcerer but even then Lucian wasn't scared but rather more excited.

"Sure then, not only will i reach the level you are currently on but also surpass you" Lucian spoke with confidence.

"Well then why don't you try and land a hit on me, if you do i promise to write a recommendation letter for your admission into the academy."

"Ok, then I just need to land a hit right?"

"Yes, and your time ends when all the sand runs out of this hour glass." A giant hour glass then appeared on top of the boulder.

"And i promise that I won't move any part of my body even once and will only defend and not attack." Amara spoke in a slightly taunting way.

'Is she trying to get me pumped up, I think she wants me to land a hit more than I want to myself.'

"Fine but don't blame me if you get hurt."

As soon as Lucian spoke those words the hourglass flipped and the timer started.

Amara stood there with her arms crossed while Lucian prepared for another attack but this time his focus was only on Amara he thought for a second and after thinking of a plan he quickly began running circles around Amara.

"Are you trying to make me dizzy?" Amara spoke curiously.

"Think whatever you want." Lucian didn't want to give Amara any idea about his plan.

Lucian then began to attack with small wind burst attacks which were easily blocked by Amara who raised the nearby rocks to create a shield to protect herself, as Lucian continuously threw attacks at her while running in a circle Amara began to get curious on what Lucian was planning to do.

"If you keep running you will only be tiring yourself out." Amara was both confused and intrigued by Lucian's tactic.

But Lucian didn't answer rather he was focused on the task at hand, nearly half the sand had already fallen so Amara was curious on what Lucian was planning to do with such little time.

And as Amara was thinking about the time, Lucian Quickly Casted a massive fire ball as big as he could towards Amara, Amara was shocked to see that Lucian had two elements both wind and fire, but as Amara raised an earth shield to protect herself from the fire Lucian again casted a massive air burst attack, The wind attack then clashed with the fire ball and created a massive wall of fire, Amara was taken aback bit but it still wasn't something that could hurt her.

But before Amara could even finish her thoughts, Lucian suddenly jumped through the wall of fire and casted a massive air burst attack, Amara tried to block the attack but it was too late the attack had already landed on her body.

"And that's a hit." Lucian Said to Amara as he landed back on the ground.
