My Triling System

“You’re unbelievably strong.” Lexa finally admitted.

“Yeah, you too. This is the most amazing day I ever had in my whole life.” Jeri replied.

“What?”

“You know, there are kids who derive their pleasure in playing, they play all day without getting bored of it. And some kids love singing, talking, stealing, fighting, and all sort of things. Well as for me, I love fighting and I would be honest, I never get tired of fighting. That’s why I’m undefeatable.”

“But I was close to defeating you, even though we weren’t able to defeat each other in the end.” Lexa interrupted her.

“Yeah, that’s when you came into the story. You’re the first person I fought that made me feel like I was fighting someone. Like, all the years, no one has managed to fight me this long.” Jeri explained before touching her face. “See, I’m sweating hard which is a first for me. I don’t sweat as much as this, but fighting you made me realize how much I need to get stronger.”

“So you mean not even your brother or mother won against you in a fight?” Lexa asked surprisingly.

“Ahh, nope.. not my mother. I never fought with my mother but if it were my brother, I would be sure to defeat him in two minutes. He’s not as strong as you think he is. He only gets powered up by some stupid ring he spent fortunes of money to purchase.” Jeri answered. “And let me tell you a secret. The ring only gives him a small amount of power, it’s not like it originally belonged to him anyway. It was said to be the ring of some ancient hero called The Triling.”

.....

“Really?” Lexa asked as she started laughing.

“That’s so funny, right? My brother told me about the story and said he hope to see the Triling one day. Can you see how crazy my brother is? I almost beat him up for acting like a kindergarten. He’s way too childish but sometimes he acts like he’s matured. Especially when he thinks of some past friend of his.”

“Lucky you, I have no brother but I have a very crazy sister who I wished I hadn’t known her. She’s like a disease to me. Always bringing trouble and pain.” Lexa said.

“I guess we both have crazy siblings, haha!” The girls laughed once again and once the noise died down, they rose from the floor.

“I’m Lexa.” She introduced herself as she presented a handshake to Jeri.

“I’m Jeri, it’s lovely to meet and fight with you.”

“Oh yeah... our promise has been broken since none of us defeat the other, which means you’ll be setting Kevin free anyway,” Lexa said.

“I will set him free and not talk to him since I didn’t defeat you and you also would not talk to him since you didn’t defeat me. Simple.” Lexa said, tendering her two hands into the air while shaking her head positively.

“No no no, I’m Kevin’s roommate, how will we not talk when we’re in the same room? Secondly, I’m his best friend after his male friend betrayed him and disappeared. Like, I’ve not talked about being best friends with him but to me, he’s my best friend.”

“Or crush..” Jeri laughed boisterously.

“Come on, stop being ridiculous. No one would see someone as handsome as Kevin and wouldn’t fall for him. I’m pretty sure if the lady fairies and elves started noticing him they’ll start crushing on him.”

“Talking about Kevin, I can’t feel the spell connection again. I think it’s because of the shadow dome.” Jeri walked toward the dome and signaled for Lexa to cancel the magic.

After the shadow dome has been canceled, the two lady fairies saw that Kevin was no longer on the seat.

“Where did he go?” Lexa asked.

Jeri touched her chest and started feeling the connection between her and Kevin coming from the basketball court. She then ran towards the basketball court, leaving Lexa behind.

“Hey wait for me!” Lexa yelled but she was stopped from leaving by the lady fairies of the dark creatures.

Jeri had forgotten about Lexa as her aim was to see what Kevin was up to in the basketball court. But Lexa concluded that Jeri intentionally abandoned her at the hands of the dark fairies.

The dark fairies had her hands tied to the back preventing her from attacking or anything. She struggled to free herself but it was all to no avail. And when she almost lost hope of doing anything else, some people had come to rescue her.

The fairies of the light creatures had come to help her. She could see it, everyone had come out of their hiding, including the elves and fairies of the school.

Now that the fairies and elves had come out, they rescued Lexa from the hands of the dark lady fairies.

Finally free to do whatever she wished to do, Lexa left the light fairies to take care of the dark fairies and flew toward the basketball court.

______***_______

Jeri upon reaching the door of the basketball court found out that it was locked from the inside.

“What the hell is going on?” Jeri wondered as she looked around to find a way of entering the court.

The windows and the doors of the court have been shut closed. There was no way to enter through those two places.

“Since there are no other ways to enter, I’ll just use the quicker one. Shadow travel.” Jeri said and immediately, her shadow started enlarging. It then proceeded on covering her body. Then after she has been covered by the shadows, she became invisible to the public although she could see everything happening around her. The shadow then started moving by itself and it passed through the door, appearing on the other side of the room.
