I wake up slowly, touching my face lightly. 'Someone...was here....who?' I think to myself, when I was asleep, someone had come in but it was through the window, who is it? I turn my head to the door as it opens. "Oh you're up!" Leone shouts happily.

I blink and nod, "yeah." I sit up and grimace. "Yeah you got stabbed and shouldn't move." I give her the, 'you should've said that first' look. "I don't care. I'm going to train." Chelsea enters the room, hearing what I said. "No way, you have to rest." I roll my eyes and stand up, wobbling slightly. "Someone get Lubba."

Najenda enters as well, the rest following. "Is she still trying to train?" She asks Leone. I'm guessing Leone nods, "I am fine. I need to train." Najenda is quiet before her arm comes at me with a punch, I take it head on. Catching it with my hand and holing onto it, not even showing my pain. I had caught it with the hand on the side I was injured with.

"Alright." I feel my hope rise, "if you can last against Susanoo for more than a minute." I nod, turning to Susanoo. "Shall we take this outside?" We all walk outside. "Begin!" Najenda orders and Susanoo lunges at me quickly. I roll to the side, 'what gives me the upper hand.....his OCD!' I smirk inwardly and kick the ground hard, leaving a crater.

50 seconds left.

"Hey Susanoo, the ground isn't perfect." I taunt, he knows my strategy but has a hard time trying to fight it. I kick him in his chest as he's thinking, effectively kicking him through a wall. "Wisp!" Tatsumi yells, I keep a blank face. Waiting for him to make his move.

Susanoo comes out the wall quickly, forgetting about the mess.

30 seconds left.

I dodge him and dive to my left. It seems he was planning on that because he swung his weapon at me. I propel myself backwards by landing on my hand and flipping, sliding across the ground in a crouch when I land. I don't have time to think when he attacks again. 'He's trying to keep me from focusing. What is his plan?' I dodge attack after attack, gritting my teeth. I'm putting too much stress on my wound.

15 seconds.

Then next time he attacks, I grab his weapon, yanking it from his hands. I stab it into the ground and swing around it to kick his chest. I see him about to get up and I throw his weapon like a spear, a skill I stole from Lubba. Susanoo gets hit and dust flies up around him.

9 seconds.

I keep my focus on the rubble he is under, I don't want a surprise attack. I'm sent flying from a kick to my back. 'How?!' I think frantically, flipping so I land on my feet. "You focused to hard on where I was. I jumped so you couldn't sense me, you're air senses are weak and I knew that." I grit my teeth and calm myself. 'I can't be hotheaded.' I stand up shakily in defiance.

"I'm not losing." I state firmly and charge again, moving so fast he can't see me. I run around him fast, a tornado style, throwing random punches and kicks without a pattern. Each time he either dodges or gets hit. I don't want to put him in the infirmary, but I'm going to kick his butt for calling me weak.

The timer goes off and I ignore it, planting a hand on the ground and kicking his chin. He flies into the air and I flash behind him, slamming my foot into his back. "Enough!" I hear Najenda and stop, standing off to the side as she helps him up. "I am not weak." I spit. "I never called you weak....I told you your weakness...helping you conquer it."

My eyes widen in realization, I fought him in the air without a second thought. I ball my hands into fists and stomp off. I punch a tree, breaking it in half. I stay in my stance before straightening up. "What is it Tatsumi?" He stops, hearing me say his real name. "You know he isn't mad?" Referring to Susanoo, I glare at nothing.

"He only did that so you wouldn't push yourself in training." I flex my hands slightly, "I know." I answer and put a hand over my eyes. "Are you going to apologize?" I shake my head, "not now. Later." He feels confused, "why?" I smile, starting to cough. "Wisp!" I grip my wound as he runs over to me, my mouth covered in blood.

"I'm fine, I just need some bandages." I shake slightly but hide it. "I'm going to my room." He tries to object but I brush him off, going back into the base. I sit in my room a while later. 'I'm in a bad condition...I'm suppose to be strong.' I hold onto my injury lightly, the blood had soaked through the bandages, I can't change them myself.

" What do you want Lubba?" I ask when I hear him at my door. "Can I come in?" I pause, pulling on a baggy shirt. "Yeah," I answer and hide my bloody hand behind my back. "I wanted to know if you were alright, Susanoo hit you pretty hard." I give him a fake smile. "Course. A little thing like that won't hurt me." I know he doesn't believe me by the sound of his heartbeat.

"Why are you taking so many risks...?" He ask and I tilt my head slightly, "what do you mean. To be an assassin you have to take risks." His emotions aren't too happy right now. "You take risks that are necessary. You don't hide when you're in pain, not from your comrades." I roll my eyes and turn my head away, "when did I do that?"

He is angry, probably cause he knows I'm lying. "Right now, you're hand is covered in blood so you hide it. You're wearing a shirt too large meaning your wound is bleeding and you're hiding the pain you're really feeling right now." I feel surprised, sometimes I forget how observant he can be at times.

He walks over and pulls the shirt over my head, "Lubba!" I shout in shock. I have on a bra, but still. "I'm going to rewrap your bandages, stay still." I listen to him and he unwraps the bandages on my torso. 'He's not being a perv....weird.' I think to myself as I feel something wet wipe my back and I cringe. "I bright it in with me." He explains and I relax again.

He cleans my wound and wraps it back up quickly. I feel over it lightly and look away, feeling embarrassed. "Th-Thanks...." I mumble quietly, talk about a attack on my pride. "No problem, Wisp. Next time tell me or someone else to help you rewrap it." He stands up, walking to the door and pausing. "Oh and you aren't weak. Despite what you think, you're one of the strongest girls I've met."

I blush darkly as he leaves. 'Gah! Why am I blushing?!' I place my hands on my cheeks and tug on them lightly, feeling the heat on my face. 'I don't blush!! Well there was that one time with Akira...' I slap my face lightly, 'he's with Mizuki now! I can't think about that manga dimension right now!!' I scold myself. Finally, I decide to go to the bathroom and wash my face with water.

"What's wrong with me?" I question no one and put my head on the sink, my hands cushioning it. "I don't need love, I have gone so long without it, I don't need it." I say out loud, explains it to no one. Problem is....I was trying to get myself to believe it.

"Love only causes pain, I'm no masochist."
