[i]Blood spurted out of Maria's back, before-[/i] [i]Suddenly, everything began again.[/i] [i]Maria had turned instantaneously, but...how? And more to the point? Her fist was less than an inch away from Nathaniel's face, as she yelled in fury.[/i] "[b][i]YOU MAGIC USING CHEAT! GODDAMN YOU!"[/i][/b]

[b]Nathaniel ducked, tripping over his own feet and falling to the ground on his chest[/b] "A tri- A time user..." [i]"Interesting."[/i]

After a moment, she lowered her arm, sighing and sitting down on the ground. She appeared to be trying to calm herself down.[/i] "One. Two. Three. Four. Breath in. Breath out. One. Two. Three. Four..."

[b]Nathaniel awkwardly placed a hand on her shoulder.[/b] " [u]Oh its fine. Seriously"[/u]

"It's not. I've hurt people. Bullies, teachers, random jackasses that talked trash. Some are still in the hospital. Nobody's died yet, but...I'm scared for when that'll happen. When I'll just...snap entirely." [i]Maria sighed quietly, looking up at Nathaniel.[/i] "...You want to continue? I wouldn't be surprised if you don't want to. My fault, I know.."

[u]"Come on. Let's do this."[/u] [b]Nathaniel got to his feet,backing up a few feet[/b] [spoiler]*Kylo Ren* YOU NEED A TEACHER!!! *BRINGS IN ZORA*[/spoiler]

[spoiler]Lol.[/spoiler] [i]Maria lifted herself up, as she twirled the gladius within her gloved right hand. She ignored the throbbing pain in her back, as she began to sprint towards Nathaniel.[/i]
