Chapter 33 - I'm Totally Catching That

While Kristin is disciplined, by the guards, Elijah and Gale are jumping from tree to tree while stopping occasionally so Gale could catch a falling Elijah every once in a while.

Elijah is getting better as time went by as he tried many different style from the anime he watched, and soon he could be seen doing a ninja style jumping from branch to branch.

A few minutes has gone by and they finally stop when they spotted a... regular deer? Yes, a regular deer, which disappointed Elijah as he thought he would be able to see some hybrid animals just like in anime.

When he taut an arrow on his bow and fired it, oh he was dead wrong about it being a regular deer as the deer sensed the arrow flying through the air, it stomp on the ground and an earth wall protruded from the ground and block the arrow completely.

The deer then kicked the wall and sent a head sized boulder towards Elijah's position and ran away.

It almost hit Elijah but he is luckily saved by Gale as she pulled him to the side and the boulder missed his head by a hair's length and made him broke a cold sweat.

"Oh I'm totally catching that deer now," Elijah promised as he pursued the deer. As he is pursuing the deer, he fired more arrows, which surprised Gale as she didn't think Elijah was this good with the bow, although most of his shots either missed or got blocked by the deer, his technique of reloading and firing arrows is excellent.

Elijah was about to shoot another arrow when Gale yelled "Wait!" but it was too late as he fired an arrow, the call from Gale changed the trajectory of his projectile and it hit the deer straight through the lungs and pierced the heart.

"See! I told you I'll catch it!" Elijah said as he jumped down, but as soon as he took a step forward, a stream of water blew him back towards the trunk of a tree.

Gale then showed up to check on Elijah, clearly worried about his condition, but when Elijah affirmed his alright and only drench and wet, Gale turned to where the water came from and saw someone there, "... Rain..." She said as she glared at the woman who the water stream came from.

"Well well well, if it isn't Gale that Swiftly Passes," The girl called Rain said.

"What do you want Rain?" Gale asked.

"Well I'm just securing our prey, you know?" Rain said in a mocking tone.

Elijah already got up by this time trying to squeeze out the water from his clothes "What do you mean yours, I killed that deer fair and square!" Elijah yelled towards them.

"Oh really, pretty boy, it's on our side of the border, what are you gonna do about it?" Rain mocked Elijah.

"Now I appreciate when a beautiful girl calls me a pretty boy because I know I'm handsome," Elijah said as he swayed his hair to the side, "But I hate girls who are arrogant and prideful."

This clearly angered Rain rendering her unable to speak, Gale on the other hand is quite nervous as she whispered to Elijah, "Stop it right now, that's Rain that Causes Calamites, she's one of the best warrior the tribe of water has to offer, it's best not to anger her any further," Gale warned.

"So what, she's trying to steal our food that I caught fair and square," Elijah argued.

"You are quite the arrogant boy, you don't even know who I am, lemme show you what I can do," Rain spoke before Gale could as Rain sent another stream of water, this time it's doubled the power.

Gale was about to push Elijah to the side when he just shoved her to the side and smirked, "Guess what genius, water conducts electricity," He said as he threw a lightning bolt to counter the stream of water.
