《Torn World》The Battles for the Future. Part II
Advertisement
After their first battles are over the two teams decide to meet up and eat some food together. It's almost mid-day and their nexts fight would start in about an hour. They go to a local restaurant near the arena and are extremely surprised to find out it is a pizzeria. They got 2 pizzas, one for Nathan and Tanner and one for Joey and Bree. Once the pizzas arrive, they dig in and begin to talk about their fights. Both teams express the fact that they beat their opponents with relative ease and they begin to wonder if they even have to worry about their other opponents.
"I am mean we are Legendary Classes."
"You have a good point Tanner, but sometime we will face the Commander's of an army, so they must be strong."
Nathan decides to interject on the chat between Joey and Tanner and put his own opinion in.
"I don't know about that Joey, the last person who was Legendary was the Hero of the world soooooooo."
After Nathan let out the extra long "so", a scoffing noise was heard behind him. Nathan knew who this was because he has trained his "Heightened Senses" and was able to use it throughout most of the day.
"Man, I was hoping you wouldn't notice us here."
"Listen here you demon, I am a princess and even if you tried your best to hide from me I could find you in an instant."
"Doubt it."
"What do you mean 'doubt it'?!"
"I mean I doubt you could find me if I hid somewhere."
"Why I would-."
Tanner raises his hand so Niki would stop arguing with Nathan. Tanner knew that Nathan was probably right but now is not the time for the two to be fighting over something stupid. They needed to focus on the tournament and prepare themselves for the worst, at least that is what Tanner thought.
Niki takes a seat beside Tanner and they all continue eating their food and making small talk. Soon everyone is finished and they pay for the food, Joey thanks the cook for making such a delicious meal and they go on their way. As they leave the pizzeria, Nathan puts his hand in front of the group, signaling them to stop. He takes a good look at his surroundings and notices something is off. Joey speaks up first to end the silence between the group.

"What's the matter Nate?"
Nathan shakes his head and laughs as Joey calls his a nickname he hasn't heard in a long time but this is a serious situation.
"There is someone watching us, correction many people watching us and they seem to have bad intentions."
Nathan's eyes kept darting around as he continued to count up the number of suspicious people within their vicinity and the rest of the group goes on high alert. They make a shield around Niki since they are being paid to protect her. Nathan and Tanner are in front of her and Joey and Bree to her right and left in that order. Tanner decides that at least wants to find out what their description is if possible.
"Nathan, where are they and what do they look like?"
"They are constantly moving at high speeds and they are all wearing white robes that cover all of their body."
Tanner doesn't know about any group with any affiliation with white robes since he has been reading up on his history about this world with some books that he has found so he realizes it must be a group that is very secretive. Tanner decides now is the time to test out his newest ability and try to find out what is going to happen.
"Foresight."
Tanner consciousness is sent forward in time and his vision becomes distorted along the edges. This ability lets Tanner see forward in the future but makes his body in the present immobile. He sees glimpses of a fight scene portrayed in front of him and it all starts with an attack from...
"Joey! To your right!"
Joey, who was standing to the right of the princess turns to his right and sees someone in a white robe sprint towards him at an incredible speed. Joey is able to react to this and puts his body into a fighting stance. The person in the white robe seems to be surprised that Joey knows that they are attacking and stops completely, about 10 feet away from Joey. Their faces can't be seen at all, it is like the hood gives some sort of magical darkness to hide their faces. Nathan does a small gasp and realizes something.
"We are in another dimension, like when we fought the King! That is why there is no one else here."
Everyone looked around and realized that he was right. There was not a single pedestrian around within eyesight. Even the aura of the place seems to have changed once they left the pizzeria. Tanner only knew of bits and pieces of the fight but he knew that vision he had has been altered entirely with him telling Joey were his attacker was.

In the original vision, Joey had been stabbed in the neck with a rapier causing him to bleed significantly but it seemed someone healed him throughout the fight because he was fighting in the next vision. At the end though, Tanner saw Niki being stabbed in the head and he intended to prevent that entirely. His brain begins to calculate the best way to approach this situation and a perfect plan comes to mind.
"Nathan, go and find out if any of them are alone and if so assassinate them, if not wait for Joey to use his Lure ability and come out when you see fit."
Nathan nods his head in acceptance of these orders and vanishes from sight.
"Joey, go out into that open area 30 feet in front of us and use Lure as well as Impenetrable Defense, ok?"
"Sounds good to me."
"Bree, stay here with me and try to snipe anyone you see with an Ice Spike."
"Ok!"
"What about me Tanner!"
"Uhhhh, you just stay there and try to watch my back, okay Niki?"
"Alright!"
Tanner's position would in front of Niki with his shield ready to fight and if it came down to it he would use Divine Light and escape with Niki since she was the number one priority. He had faith in his friends that they could survive. Niki puts her back to Tanner and watches the roof above the pizzeria and beyond.
ZZZIIPP~
CLANG~
An arrow that seemed to be going the speed of sound is sent towards Niki but it is parried by Tanner's shield. Several more arrows are shot from different directions but Tanner manages to deflect them as well. Bree sees where they are coming from and begins to send Ice Spikes in their direction. While Bree is having a ranged battle Joey manages to get where Tanner wanted him without a scratch.
"Lure! Impenetrable Defense!"
A teal aura appears around Joey and then his whole body turns into a greyish color. Joey has never used Impenetrable Defense before but there is a first time for everything right? As Joey activates his ability he can hear someone begin to run towards him at a rapid pace and it is behind him. He goes to turn around to fight whoever this is but he can't move at all!
"What?!"
Joey's whole body is completely paralyzed, all he can move is his mouth and his eyes. As the unknown person drew closer, Joey could hear them begin to yell. It sounded like a woman and was extremely close. Joey winced waiting to feel extreme pain but all that happened was the ear-piercing sound of metal completely shattering. It sounds like the woman was sent backwards after the shattering sound and landed on the ground with a loud thump.
Nathan saw this and decided to capitalize on the stunning of the robed figure. He appeared out of what seemed to be thin air and drew his sword close to the girl's neck. He put his hand on the robed figure's hood and began to pull but she grabbed his hand and pleaded to him.
"No. No no no no, please don't do that. Just let me go and you'll never see me again I swear!"
Nathan hesitated for a second and decided he wanted to know what these people wanted and why they were doing this. He began to pull on the hood again and planned to interrogate her but he quickly let go and pulled out his short sword.
CLANG~
Two clangs were heard as Nathan deflected to arrows with his two swords but a third one hit him in the leg. He lets out an audible yell of pain as the arrow has gone completely through his leg and is poking out the other side. Nathan had let his guard down since he thought Joey's Lure attracted everything to attack him so Nathan only saw two of the three arrows at the last second.
The robed figure picks herself up and tries to run away but Nathan is extremely pissed now. With adrenaline pumping through his veins he is able to fight the pain and grab the hood of the girl's robe. As she begins to run he stands his ground and the hood finally comes off. The girl turns around to see what had happened and Nathan's eyes widened immensely. The person who was in the robe was none other than the woman he had a kiss with and shared a bed with, Catia.
