Richard Returns

"You'll understand when you fight me, so let's not waste any more time and just do it. Once the match is over, we can begin training in earnest." Ciara added, noticing the disbelieving look Sam and Serah made.

They both looked at each other and nodded, deciding to trust Ciara's words. Even if they lost, which they would, they could finally start the main training.

"Let's do this then!" Serah said, cracking her knuckles as she grinned energetically.

"Y-yeah!" Sam also added, feeling flustered, however, they had gone past the point of no return.

Facing their current enemy, both friends looked at each other and nodded, determined to give their all in the fight.

"Hyyaaaaaa!!!" 

And so the fight started.

[Moments Later...]

Of course, they both lost... terribly so!

"Haaa, I knew it!" Serah grumbled while lying on the ground, Sam directly beside her also sharing the same fate.
