Chapter 26: 5v5

Third Person

As Daisy and Traceler opens the door. They both went different sides as they notice something about to hit them. Daisy went left, Traceler flew right. Then afterwards a gunshot was heard and Daisy grunts.

"Oh gosh! Daisy!" Guinevere worriedly said and Team Alpha went towards Daisy's aid.

"Where did you got hit? Tell us! Hurry up!" She said again and looked at Granger with a glare.

"I hit myself with my knees when I tried to escape that attack~" Daisy said and held his forehead while in pain.

Everyone went (😶) as they heard what Daisy said. "Did I said something wrong?" Daisy continued.

This made Guinevere hit her at the back of her head.

"You made us worry you scumbag! I thought you got hit!" She said and her face really went angry, so Daisy giggled.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to." She said and then she looked at Granger. "Why would you do that though?" But instead, got none as an answer. Granger just looked away and didn't mind her.

"Why you mean old dumbass-"

"Whoa whoa whoa! Easy there~ i'm fine."

"But what if it hit you?! You might end up dead!"

"But it didn't happen, so calm down will you?" Traceler just let out a loud sigh at this. Then looked away.

"I was the one who ordered him to do it." They were all surprised by what Greg told them. Literally all of them aside from Granger himself.

"Why would you do that professor?" Sky asked.

"I want to see if they really are ready to go to Etania Mountain." Daisy just nodded at this, but everyone pouted, while Traceler just looked away. "And I guess two of them are ready to lead~" They all look at each other first then to Greg. "But you will need to train yourself up to be really ready. And since the royal elites are here, they will help you out."

"Eh?! Professor-"

"No buts!" Daisy was cut out about what she was about to say. So she just looked down.

"When shall we start the training then?" Rose asked.

"Right now." Greg answered and looked at the things they gathered. "And you will all need to use this based on who got these things." He said, making all of them surprised but at the same time, looked at Daisy. For she is the only one who doesn't have a thing to use. "Use your wand Daisy~" Greg said. Then afterwards, they all nodded and went out to the school. They were now at the front part, where the breaching always occurs.

"Everyone! Please remember that this training will be like a real fight. Show no mercy!" Dean Jean said, making them all look at her in shock.

"We would be defeated easily then! We're just students anyways." Mye said worriedly.

"Then quit your hope about going to Etania Mountain!" Greg said, making her silent.

"Everyone! We've already faced some strong opponents before right? And they always have different strengths, it made us stronger! So why back down now?" Daisy said, making everyone look at her. "Come on! Where is the Team Alpha that I knew of? Team Alpha is brave and cunning, also strong. And merciful to those who are needed to be shown~

So it's up to us if we want to fight them seriously or not. Who's with me?" She then puts her hand like she was ready for a group cheer, and then Guinevere puts her hand on top of Daisy. Traceler went next and then Mye and Rose.

"Team Alpha!" They all shouted and then formed a formation.

Everyone was surprised about the sudden change of mood.

Unlike earlier, when they are apart from each other and having that worried faces. Right now, they were forming a semi-circular wall in front of Daisy, like they were protecting her at any danger. Their faces also went serious all of the sudden.

"Wow! This is gonna be epic!" Marc commented with an excited expression while everyone else had their guards up.

At first, silence was heard around all of them. None talked, and the only thing thay can be heard, is the sound of the wind, and plants swaying softly with it. Not until~

"For victory!" Guinevere and Sky both shouted, indicating that the training has started.

Traceler was the one who fought Zandre. Guinevere with Sky. Rose with Marc. Mye with Jade and Daisy with Granger. They each had someone to spar with, so it just made it easy for them to fight on their own.

"This is so fun! But the main course is right there!" Marc said and pointed at Daisy who is now one on one with Granger.

Everyone got worried about this so...

"Whatever happens... Don't let them get near Daisy!" Traceler said and everyone answered 'okay' at this.

"Don't mind me everyone!" Daisy said making all of them silent. "I can handle myself! Worry on your own first!" She said and then a gunshot was heard.

Daisy then leaned right to escape the bullet that almost hit her in the face. She looked at Granger who is now not having any sort of emotions, before holding her wand firmly.

"Remember this Daisy! If you don't win, you'll be a goner!" She told herself and took a deep breath.

"Bullet's Rain." Granger chanted and

shot his gun upwards.

Everyone of the royal elites gathered together with Zandre raising his shield over all of them.

"Protector!" The shield grew bigger, enough for all of them to be protected.

"Something is not right here~" Mye said making them all curious. "This silence is giving me goosebumps." She continued.

"Everyone! Take cover!" Traceler shouted and held everyone to each other. "Daisy!"

"Athena's Shield!" Daisy chanted and then a yellowish crystal orb covered all of them, before a shower of bullets started to fall from above and some of them even exploded enough for everyone to be alarmed.

All of the students went outside in a hurry to see what is happening, and was surprised to see the two teams fighting.

"Impossible! How did you manage to use Athena's Shield?" Sky asked and looked Daisy. Everyone of the royal elites are so ahocked to witness such happening. "No one can use that cast, except my brother." She continued.

"HA! You're underestimating us too much." Guinevere said in a proud manner.

"That was awesome! Now~ shall we get serious then?" Marc said and held his sword tightly. He started to charge as fast as he could, caughting everyone of his enemy off guard. "Omega Slash!" He stopped halfway to gather his strength towards his sword and then motioned it sideways, making a huge sidewarded slash. It escaped the sword and quickly made its way towards Team Alpha's place.

"Let me try to stop it!" Mye said and took out the Flute of Whispers. She then puts the flute right at her mouth and started to play a tune. She played the tune of Dance of the Swans and even if she is a bit nervous, she believed that the flute will help them all.

She kept on playing while the slash, like in slow motion, continued to rush towards them. Not until it stopped and started to harden. Then it cracked and exploded, releasing beautiful butterflies all around them.

Everyone was awed at the moment and Mye was more than surprised~

"You did it!" Daisy said and patted her on the shoulder.
