Inyusoka stood at the front of the classroom.
"We don't normally do this, but since you're new... Natarii, choose someone you would like to fight."
Pause
"...fight?" Natarii peeped. Inyusoka raises an eyebrow, "Our natural instinct is to avoid conflict, however, you can't avoid a war. So choose one elvin being from this room to fight."
Natarii's face went blank as she looked around. Students whispered among each other. Except for one.
"You."
The word came out of her mouth before she could stop it, and she seemed to have no control over her index finger as it pointed to a dark corner, where a white mask slid out of the shadows- followed by the rest of him. Kuroe yanks on Natarii's shirt, "Bad idea! You don't want to fight him! Change your mind! Choose Keefe instead!"
Natarii held steady, not moving a muscle, 'What am I doing? Kuroe said it was a bad idea... so why am I going through with this?' Rascal stepped up until he was directly in front of her.
He watches her silently before he said, "Would you like to change your mind?"
The whole clearing watches warily.
Natarii puts down her hand, "No." Rascal tilts his head, "I won't go easy on you."
