The Gargoyle Statue
"En Garde"
Wednesday slightly moved her saber towards me as a start to which I responded by gently hitting it away.
"Come on Wednesday"
She moved forward and lunged her saber at my chest, I swiped my saber quicker then her, forcing her to dodge my slash.
She bent downwards and tried to continue the lunge but I had already moved behind and was gonna slash her back when she instinctively reacted and hit my saber.
I pulled my saber back and went for another slash which she blocked again, I noticed how doing the same motion again will not result In anything so i did what i had done to Bianca, I went to strike her right shoulder.
She brought her saber sideways and when she was almost through with completing that motion I slightly changed the trajectory of the saber lunging the Saber in to her left top part of her chest.
"I Win Wednesday"
She seemed frozen for a second before she retracted her Saber.
"Again"
"No I think I'm done"
She unmasked her self and seemed to want to say something but I unmasked myself and began walking away when I heard her shout.
"I want to challenge you again Milatry rules, First to draw blood wins"
She said that in a hurried tone and I turned my head sideways and looked at her with a smile.
"Its cute..."
And then I walked away.
I really did find this situation and the way Wednesday was reacting was really cute, afterall she always looks the same, so it's nice to see her have more emotions on her face.
I exited the Fencing Class hall and just walked around for a bit.
Rowan should not attempt to kill her now, due to her never having to exit the infirmary hall, as this entire sub plot was ruined by me.
But.. I will stick around, near Wednesday to see if something bad will happen to her even now.

Angry... I feel Angry yet... Conflicted, no is it frustration?
Yes I feel Frustrated, I Have trained myself for the Longest time yet here, I was defeated by James.
I have met his parents and they didnt seem like the type to train him... so how could he defeat me, I have to find out how.
I headed outside the class to look for him.
As I headed out I heard the proffesor call on someone.
"Rowan it's your turn, Enid will be your opponent"
When I heard that I wanted to stay back and assess how strong my roommate is but right now I had higher priorities.
I had to find out how it was possible for James to defeat me, I am not an amateur so it was not to difficult to notice how he had little to no difficulty in defeating me.
I changed my clothes quickly and headed out to look for him, I looked around in a small radius around the Hall but he was not there so I looked for him around the building but he was no where to be seen, So I exited to building, I had already spent a good 5-10 minutes looking around the building and he was not there, so the best place to look would be the quad.
I headed outside and walked towards the entrance of another building that I had to pass through to get to the Quad but as I was gonna exit the current building I noticed that it was gonna rain so I opened my umbrella and headed out.
As I was getting closer to the the door to the other building I heard something move thanks to my enhanced hearing so I looked in that direction, I saw a gargoyle statue moving by itself.
I didnt move and stayed there to watch with curiosity about what was gonna happen next, It continued moving and wiggling over and soon fell of the edge right down towards me.
I saw this statue approaching fast and things seemed to have slowed down, I felt a familiar sensation.
yes, The familiar feeling of Death approaching, in slow motion I watched as the Gargoyle statue get closer and closer towards me and I was ready to accept such an intresting death But... I remembered a certain close to death event I had, I remembered how he stood infront of me and willingly pushed me back and took a life ending injury to himself, eventhough... I was the one it was aimed at.
I had escaped Death to such a scary monster, So can I accept Death by a mere statue?, That is not intresting at all.
I saw it get closer and closer towards me, And I used my will and power of my body to dodge this gargoyle statue.
I jumped backwards and fell down everything seemed to have returned to normal time in my vision, the statue fell in the position I previously was on and smashed into piece.
I looked at the broken statue pieces and stood up, picked the umbrella up and continued walking.
I cant accept such a simple death, I have no reason to just accept death anyways.
As for that day when he put his Life on the line to protect mine..
No matter how foolish that decision may seems, And no matter the fact that he propably did that expecting something in return, so I should have no feeling towards his action yet... I cant help Have some type of feeling even if I know his motive.
"So, why didnt you accept Death?"
I suddenly heard a voice so I looked around and saw James standing there relaxed.
He seemed to have seen what had just taken place... And now I feel Angry at him for just watching.
Didnt he previously put his life on the line to save mine, How is he so relaxed when he just saw me almost get crushed by that statue?!
Wait why is it that I even care so much... Oh is this...
"I wanted to see whether you would chose to live or die, I have seen how physically fit you were in Fencing today so it was obvious you could very well dodge it"
Oh... I see, It was a test to see what kind of person I am.
It seems he got me, I for some reason cared enough to survive, no I know exactly why I chose to live.
It was because of him... This being a not so intresting death was just an excuse as it turns out.
