*********** ************** *********** **************** **************

One week passed since the attack and today is the beginning of the School Tournament. Because of this event, Veyna was too busy to spar with me, that's why I slept in my room since last week.

However even if I was in my room, I wasn't sleeping alone; Eniel didn't want to leave my side and is actually sleeping in the same bed as me. Pan is also sleeping with me but I don't really think it's a problem for me to sleep with my pet.

I tried to convince her to get her own room, or at least her own bed; but she is really stubborn, saying that family need to sleep together.

By the way her appearance really changed, the day I met her she had long brown hairs who reached her back, but now she has short spiky hairs reaching her shoulder. I almost didn't recognize her.

If it wasn't for her voice and developing breast, you would at first sight think that she is a boy... when will mine start to grow?

Shina : " Eniel wake up, we have to get there early. " I said trying to wake her up.

Eniel instantly woke up and looked at me with a face fully awake who didn't show any sign of fatigue.

Eniel : " Morning. "

Shina : " How can you be fully awake right after waking up ? " I asked amazed, I never saw her half asleep, apart from when I first met her.

Eniel : " By training with Verlox I think. "

Shina : " I see... Well it's not like it's something really useful. "

I got up of the bed and started to change my clothes.

Eniel : " Wait... I will help you. "

Shina : " It's fine you know? I at least know how to change myself. "

Eniel : " No, it's a big sister job to help her younger sister. " She said while forcefully changing my clothes.

Shina : " W-wait ! You don't need to. " I yelled but she didn't stop.

Since she arrived, Eniel assisted me in almost everything, like changing my clothes, cleaning the room, washing my clothes...I had a hard time to convince her to let me eat by myself; imagine how embarrassing it would be to have someone feed you in front of your friend...

After an useless attempt to resist to Eniel's inhuman strength, I gave up and let her dress me up.

Because of the School Tournament, all class were canceled, but we still need to go register our team at the stadium before noon; our team is composed of me, Estiel, Fiona and now Eniel.

*********** ************** *********** **************** **************

We decided to meet at the stadium; when we arrived, Estiel and Fiona were once again already there.

Estiel : " You are late again ! "

Shina : " We are not late, you are the one who always show up earlier. "

Fiona : " Right, right. " She said nodding her head several time.

Eniel : " Anyway, let's go register. "

While we were walking toward the registry office, the long queue stepped aside, letting us reach the man in charge of the inscription.

Man : " Hello, please give me your names "

Shina : " Shina Dragonheart, Eniel Dragonheart, Fiona Shezil and Estiel Kiel. "

Man : " Fine... the name of your team ? "

Shina : " Hey, girls, we have to choose a name. " I said looking towards the others.

Fiona : " Girly Pink ? " She answered seriously.

Shina + Estiel : " REFUSED ! "

Estiel : " If we took a name like that, I would be too ashamed to stay in this school... "

Shina : " Same here. "

Fiona : " Bullies... " She with her teary eyes.

Shina : " How about Starlight ? "

Fiona : " I refuse ! " She countered.

Shina : " Why?! "

Fiona : " Cause you were against my name ! " She is holding a grudge...

Shina : " Fiona you... you really are resentful. "

Estiel : " Why not Teatime ? " Seriously?

Fiona : " I like this one. "

Shina : " It is almost as strange as the first one... "

Estiel : " Sh-Shut up ! Well two of us like it, what about you Eniel ? "

Eniel : " I ll follow Shina's choice. "

Shina : " I am okay if... Estiel is the team leader. "

Fiona : " It's nice then ! Team name Teatime with Estiel Kiel as our team leader. " She said to the man.

Estiel : " Wa-Wait ! I refuse to be the leader of a team with a name like that; and the leader should obviously be Shina ! " She said becoming red.

Shina : " You are the one who choose the name, it's obvious that you'll be our leader right ? " I said with a sarcastic smile.

Estiel : " N-Not fair ! " She said almost crying.

The man gave us all a yellow armband with the number 79 on it, only Estiel received a green one because she is our leader.

While we were leaving we could hear the voice of peoples talking about us.

Boy1 : " It's them right? Look that demihuman got a baby dragon on her head. "

Boy2 : " Doesn't the demihuman with the katana look scary ? "

Girl : " I am more intrigued by Estiel, she managed to domesticate those three demihumans, she is incredible. "

Boy3 : " I wonder if she'll sell one of them to me ? "

When Eniel looked at them, everyone stopped talking; peoples were always afraid of us, but with Eniel joining our group, even the teachers are afraid. After all in her sword exam she broke the two shoulder of the examiner with a wooden sword, since then nobody talked to us.

Estiel : " Ignore them... Most of the student of this school come from Theristid. "

Eniel : " Disgusting. " She said looking at them with a disgusted glare, is she remembering what happened to her village; the bandits attacked them to sell them at Theristid.

We left the stadium and went to the cafeteria to take a breakfast, after that we passed time chatting; the tournament start in the afternoon.

*********** ************** *********** **************** **************

It was finally time for the tournament to start, there are 140 team participating; the first battle is a battle royal to reduce the number of participant to 32 team. In the battle royal the participant are allowed to send only one of their members and the battle end when there are only 8 participants left.

There are four battle royal occurs at the same time, with 35 participant by stadium.

Fiona : " Then, who want to go ? "

Estiel : " I think we should send Shina, all other team will try to take us down first. "

Fiona : " Indeed, we are really famous. "

Estiel : " Famous? You mean 'Infamous' right? "

Shina " Alright, I ll go. "

Eniel : " No, I ll go. " She said with a cold smile.

Shina : " You don't plan on killing anyone right ? " I asked worried about the other students.

Estiel : " It can't be... you are still angry about what happened earlier at the registration office ? "

Eniel : " I don't know what you are talking about. " She said with a little grin.

Estiel : " As I thought... Well it's fine, we are already feared by everyone in this school so injuring one or two people in the process won't change anything now. " She sighing.

Shina : " Try not to go too far please. "

Eniel : " Don't worry, I ll just some of theirs bone, that's all " She said walking away to the arena.

Estiel : " A few bones ?! "

Shina : " Yeah, that should be enough. "

Estiel : " WAIT ! What do you mean by 'that should be enough' ?! "

Fiona : " You're going to die young if you worry about every little details you know? " She said tapping Estiel's shoulder.

*********** ************** *********** **************** **************

The fight finished only a few minutes after it started, and the result was... a carnage ? They are lucky she used a wooden sword.

EVERY participant targeted Eniel, I don't know if they had a meeting where they planned to take us out first; but as soon as the fight started, they all charged toward Eniel.

Eniel kept her words and didn't kill anyone, but she also kept her words when she said she was going to break some of theirs bones; after a few minutes everyone was on the ground with at least 4 broken bones, I swear I saw her smile while she was fighting.

When the referee stopped the fight, it was too late; every others participant were on the ground agonizing and only one team advanced to the next round. One team instead of eight...

When Eniel came back, nobody excepted us dared to look at her; what happened on the stadium shocked most of the parents who came to look at the battles. By the way I heard a loud laugher coming from someone among the parents... It a familiar voice who belonged to a man, it looked like he enjoyed the massacre.

Eniel : " I am back, I held back right ? "

Shina : " Yeah nice job, I am glad you didn't went too far. " I said patting her head, I like how her tail move while I am doing that.

Estiel : " She... didn't went too far? " She asked looking toward Fiona.

Fiona : " I don't think she did. "

Estiel : " Am I the one lacking common sense here?... " She muttered while she seemed the be reflecting.

*********** ************** *********** **************** **************

After the preliminary room, there were only 25 team left instead of the 32 because of Eniel. The next battle are the team fights, when we went in the arena, our opponents were four boys who seemed to be 16 years old.

They are all armed with a single wooden sword which means they practice lightning sword style.

Estiel : " Hey you two, can you try not to beat our opponent instantly please ? I still want to try to feel useful. " She said looking at Eniel and me.

Shina : " Okay, they don't seem that strong anyway so we can hold them. "

Estiel and me are currently armed with a wooden sword while Eniel is using two, the only one who isn't using a melee weapon is Fiona; at first I wanted to use a bow too, but Estiel insisted on me using a sword, saying two archer in the same team isn't good.

When the fight began, I covered Fiona to make sure she could concentrate on assisting Estiel in her fight.

The two of them are fighting against one of the boy while I and Eniel are handling the three others. Eniel and me may be strong enough to beat them, Fiona and Estiel didn't train as much as us and aren't as strong as us.

I am currently holding back one of the boy by dodging all of his attack, the boy I am against is actually pretty fast, but after sparring many time against Veyna, I feel that his movement are really slow.

When I looked at how Eniel was doing, she was sitting on the top of the bodies of the two boys she was against. Once again the two of them have some broken bones, it's good that she know how to hold back.

Maybe I should finish my fight too, when I looked toward the boy who I was supposed to fight against, he was panting, exhausted from having all his attacks dodged.

When he once again tried to swing his sword at me, I dodged it by ducking and swept my sword at his body, driving him unconscious.

I looked back to how Estiel and Fiona were doing, at the begin of the fight Estiel was having a hard time against her opponent, but with Fiona's support they managed to force him into defense and drive him into a corner.

Estiel and the boy were exhausted, the fight was going to end soon; the boy looked at his comrade around him and knew he was going to lose, he abandoned all defense and charged at Estiel.

When he was going to swing his sword, his shoulder was hit by a wooden arrow; the impact made him drop his sword and Estiel took this opportunity to strike him in the stomach. The boy fell to the ground and the battle ended.

Shina : " Good job ! " I said running to Estiel slapping our hand together.

Estiel : " Thanks, even if I am not as good as you two... "

Fiona : " You are strong you know, it's just that those girls are some real monster. " She said slapping our hand.

Eniel looked at us with an envious smile, I am not going to let her out of this.

Shina : " Good job too Eniel. " I said patting her head.

Estiel : " So she have a special treatment ? " She said in a somewhat annoyed voice.

Fiona : " Are you jealous ? " She said with a little smirk.

Estiel : " O-Of course not! "

Shina : " If you wanted one you just had to ask. " I said patting Estiel's head.

Estiel : " Y-You idiot ! " She yelled said with a crimson face, but she still didn't resist my hand.

After that we went back to the participant's waiting room, until now we fought against opponents weaker than us, but our true enemy is waiting at the end of the tournament... Veyna.
