Chapter 23 - Hide and Attack....

I am Ruby, the Sitar house servant.Let's begin our battle.

I am Cassandra. I serve Rao house.

We are Robin and Hobin. We serve Rao house.

Which class are you from?

From B-class same as you Cassandra. And I know Robin and Hobin are from D-class.

It seems you planned this all uphead. But aren't you a bit over confident. Even though you think as a B-class you can defeat me alone, isn't it foolish to think you can defeat a person from same class teaming up with two members of D-class.

Your right it is foolish if I thought I can defeat you all alone.

But I am not alone.

Stella shot a bullet towards Cassandra.

Cassandra dodged it.

Hey, who is this rookie? Using normal sniper rifle that too without a silencer. You know we all are physically enhanced. Even if she used silencer we can hear her.You knew that. Right?

You are correct.

But we still gonna win.

Ruby quickly charged towards Cassandra without leaving a time for her to shoot. But Hobin defended her attack. Then Robin tried to attack her from behind but a bullet was shot towards Robin so he had to pull back his attack and dodge the bullet.

Cassandra started firing at Ruby, so Ruby quickly started dodging and went behind the pillar.

Robin and Hobin went towards Ruby to attack her. Then Stella started to fire at Hobin to stall him. But since a sniper can only shoot a bullet at a time Robin got the chance to get near Ruby and started to attack Ruby.

Robin started to strike Ruby with his photon blade but Ruby can defend herself with ease since there is a huge power difference between both. When Ruby is about to attack, Cassandra came behind Ruby and started firing.

She started to dodge them.

The attacks are perfectly in sync. The firing from Cassandra and strikes from Robin are perfectly aligned. So Ruby is in a defence mode. She can't seem to find an opening to attack.

Robin suddenly thrown his blade towards Ruby. She dodged it but bullets came from left,then jumped back to dodge. But that left an opening in Ruby's defence and Robin quickly charged towards Ruby and used the perfect chance to blow a drop kick on Ruby.

Ruby fell on ground. Cassandra used this chance to fire on Ruby but Ruby jumped to dodge. When she is in mid air Cassandra started to fire at Ruby. Ruby got hit by the bullets.

Ruby then quickly went behind the pillar.

Stella, do you hear?

Yeah.

Let's start our plan.

Ruby came out and quickly charged towards

Robin. When Cassandra about to start firing Stella shot at Cassandra. To dodge it Cassandra stepped back.

In that moment Ruby attacked at Robin. Robin can't seem to defend himself from Ruby's attack due to the power gap.

He got slashed by Ruby photon short-swords.

Hobin came behind Ruby to attack her but Ruby sensed his incoming and blocked his attack and slashed Hobin.

Cassandra, after seeing that fired at Ruby but she dodged them by quickly going behind the pillar.

Robin and Hobin started to charge towards Ruby who is behind the pillar. At that moment Robin came behind the pillar from left and Hobin come from right.

Ruby quickly given heavy punch to Hobin.He was sent flown away but it exposed her back to Robin.

When he just about to strike.

Stella fired a bullet at back of the Ruby's short- sword. The bullet got deflected and hit at Robin's abdomen.

When Robin got hit he given an opening to Ruby.

Then Ruby used Pecker Strikes at Robin.

(Pecker strikes are a multiple pokes from a short-swords just like how wood pecker pecks at a tree bark.)

After that Ruby slashed Robin with her full force which made Robin to flown towards another pillar and got crashed.

Robin fell down and his defensice field was shattered.

Noo. How dare you,to do that to Robin.

Hobin charging towards Ruby.

Since Ruby is behind the pillar Cassandra can't shoot her so she was going to go towards Ruby but Stella started to fire at Cassandra which made her to hide behind another pillar. If Cassandra is about to came out Stella is shooting at her. Cassandra is unable to shoot at Stella since she doesn't have a scope to pin point her location even though she knew in which direction Stella is hiding.

Hobin with rage started to attack Ruby with his all power but he can't land a hit.

It's not a big deal how anger you are. Your anger can't make you powerful enough to defeat someone two classes above you.

Ruby started to attack Hobin. She used same Pecker strikes at Hobin and after completing the attack she given a heavy slash with both of her shot-swords which made him to sent flying and crash another pillar.

Hobin was fell down and his defensive field got shattered.

Now it's only you Cassandra.

I know. You already took some damage. So if I am going to go down I am going to take you with me.

Cassandra charged towards Ruby. Stella took the chance and shot Cassandra but she still continued to charge and firing at Ruby.

(In the training room of the dorm.The day before the battle.)

Ruby since you can move good and a short-sword user I can teach you a small technique. Since your body is already well trained I may teach you this in a night.)

(On to the Arena.)

Perfect step.

(It's a moment where the user can quikly charge in a single direction by using his muscles of calves and hamstrings in a perfect sync.)

Ruby quickly came behind Cassandra and given multiple slashes and a heavy slash. Which made Cassandra to sent flying but she still hold her gun to fire but at that exact moment Ruby faced her back of short-swords at Cassandra. Stella fired at the back of short-sword which made the bullet to deflect at Cassandra.

Cassandra got hit by the bullet even before she could fire. Her defensive field got shattered.

Hey. What was that?

What do you mean?

You know, at the end how did the bullets got deflected?

Oh. I think you know we can customize the back of the Photon swords and short-swords. I customised them to emit magnetic field of North Pole of a magnet and Stella has normal and customised bullets which can also emit magnetic field of North Pole.

But that's absurd.I heard only one member of a team can have customised weapon when they completed a single mission. But how come two members of your team have the access to have customised weapons.

I guess we just did pretty well on our first mission.

Crimson-Cassandra,Robin and Hobin of team-7 got eliminated.

Stella.

What is it Ruby?

It seems I can't go on for longer.

At present even a tiny attack can shatter my defensive field.

I better hide since I can only last for a single attack.
