Amy begins to follow but Redo stops her. “Hey this is my fault, that guy is clearly crazy, and strong if he’s the strongest P-type, It was my fault we can just leave now.”
“No Redo, if we leave now he’ll come find you later, and you forget that I’m the highest overall power in the school, have some faith.” Amy responds by shrugging him off following Davon as he walks off. I have to do this for Redo. He almost lost it again, how long can I keep this up. She thinks to herself leaving a space between her and Redo as he tries to catch up, who is quite flustered and guilty, as he thinks himself responsible somehow. Why did I do that? he thought. Trying to keep up with her as they make it to the entrance of the gym where Davon is talking to two other students they both assume to be his friends. One of which look at Redo and Amy and laugh,
“What's so funny?” Amy asked with a dead serious expression on her face. he stops laughing,
“Chill…we just don’t know why you think an S-type can beat Davon.”
“Quiet!” Davon yelled. “As you can see, Redo and Amy. These are my lackeys.” They both smirk,
“No we are his friends, we swear he’s a nice guy despite his ego, my name is Cyrus.” One of the friends spoke. Cyrus was very built and Redo assumed he was a strong P-type like Davon.
“Wait cyrus? You’re that 0-Type with a strength of a P-type of 20 right?” Amy asked,
“Yes I am, Nice to see word gets around about my brilliance, and this is my friend Leo” Cyrus points to Leo who is the other friend who seemed to be almost hiding behind Cyrus. “He’s actually a strong P-type of 32 but he’s a bit of a wuss, we both belong to class A.” he moves out of the way and shoves leo forward.
“T-T-THE Amy” He stuttered, “I'm so sorry we had to inconvenience you like this” Amy smiled a little, “I guess not all of you P-types are what I thought.”
“And what did you think?” Asked Davon who was placing out cones in a large square around the gym.
“I guess...I thought you were all douchebags consumed by power...or something.”
“Ha!” Leo yelled suddenly, “If it were only so easy.” Redo ponders on it for a second, he also couldn’t think of a time where he thought of P-types as not obnoxious.
“Davon heavily believes that the P-types were made to protect those weaker than them. Which is obviously the reverse of what a lot of people including the I-types, but noone is strong enough here to challenge his ideals, Redo should know that he’s seen many conflicts with him and Quintus, the Highest I-type.” Redo shook his head. “No?” Cyrus asks. “Then wh-”.
“Let’s go!’ Davon yells,
“What are...we doing?” Amy asks,
“Was it not obvious?” he responds, acknowledging straightening himself. They all look at the square he's made. Amy blinks, and Cyrus and Leo look at it then back to Davon confused. Redo speaks up “Yeah it's an arena, you’re probably having a contest where you and Amy attempt to touch a specific part of the body, it's the only relatively fair contest of differents that someone can beat a P-type in that still remains physical.” Davon smiles whilst Amy looks are Redo a little astonished,
“But what about the square?” Asked Leo,
“I thought that was the easy part…” Redo responds shyly. “Its a boundary, they fight in it, whoever is pushed out loses by default.”
“Yeah.” Amy looks at Leo asking sarcastically. “Isn’t it obvious?”. Davon steps into the square on the opposite side of the square,
“Let's begin. I’ll show you why you’re not fit to protect him.” Davon says cracking his knuckles,
“Ha, and you think you could do a better job?” she asks, walking into the square.
“You guys seriously don’t need to prove anything..” Redo adds from the sidelines.
“Trust me, this is the only way to send messages to Davon.” Cyrus tells Redo, staring at Davon intently.
“Redo had it down exactly, the aim of the winner has two ways that they can achieve a win. The first being by pushing them out of the ring, no matter how you achieve that, and the second is by touching the other person on the neck.” Davon explains.

“Yeah, Yeah, Whatever.” Amy responds,
“Enthusiastic huh? Ok.” Davon continues.
“On the count of three” Amy starts.
“Three” Davon starts, his legs start glowing red veins, From the get-go? Amy thought.
“Two” Amy replies. Don’t get scared, he’s trying to bait out my power.
“One” he finishes, and sprints to the left, Amy can barely keep up with his speed, he closes the distance between them almost instantly, ending up straight in front of Amy, he smiles. She looks at him shocked, but her expression suddenly changes. “Gotchu” He exclaims, but Amy disappears into a blue flame in front of him. Davon looks around him surprised. “What is this trick he exclaims, before she reappears behind him reaching for his neck. Davon notices it and whips around knocking her off her feet. Amy is sent into the air, her eyes widen, Davon reaches for her neck, Amy takes a sharp breath and her watch starts beeping loudly, when suddenly there's a bright blue ring of flames that throw Davon and Amy away from each other.
“Wow! How did she do that!?” Cyrus exclaimed in awe of what just happened. Redo smiles Impressive use of the astral dimension; it almost seemed too obvious to him.
“It’s a very advanced use of an S-types dimension breaking technique you see, normal people can’t access the supposed astral dimension S-types can use and when other people are forced to enter. It repulses them accordingly.” Redo answers him. Amy’s watch was still beeping, her skin had an obvious small blue flame hovering over it. She takes another deep breath. Davon had been knocked to the floor just before the line meaning he was safe.
“You almost got me there..” He spluttered.
“Just shut up and fight.” Amy's attitude changes drastically. Her expression is clearly more serious.
“Maybe we should stop them.” Leo standing back up from his position sitting on the sidelines. Redo thought so too, neither were the type to quit one of them could get hurt.
“Yeah and are you gonna stop them?” Cyrus asks matter of a factly,
“Hmph. I guess I should get serious.” The red veins now envelop Davon's whole body, the energy crackling on his body. Davon takes a deep breath and charges moving faster than any normal human could see, reaching Amy quickly he dives at her neck, surprised Amy jumps backwards losing her footing, he stops noticing her loss of balance, stomping the ground, the floor shaking causing Amy to fall, she hits the ground and tries to quickly stand up but it is too late by the time she's on her feet Davon is behind her, she shoves her hands out Davon is hit by another powerful wave of energy, “That’s not gonna work a second time.” Standing sturdly taking the brunt of the impact, his body slightly burnt as he touches her neck, as he promptly collapses.
Amy drops to her knees, I lost? She was sure she would win. She knew that Davon was the highest P-type and she was the strongest in the whole school. Maybe I can’t protect him She tells herself. Cyrus and Leo run over to Davon,
“You should’ve dodged you idiot!” Leo spouted, taking an arm over his shoulder. Cyrus grabbing the other.
“He won didn’t he?” Cyrus retorted, grabbing his other arm lifting up Davon. Smiling Davon yells over to Amy,
“You have proven to me that you’re capable enough to watch your brother with me!” laughing softy,” Amy smiles a little,
“You are an idiot, you know that.” She tells him, as he's carried away to the nurses office, Redo holds his hand out to Amy, She grabs it using it to help her up. “Sorry, I guess I’m not as capable as I thought…” She tries apologizing.
“What are you talking about?” Redo asks, puzzled. “The way you use dimension shifting was incredible.” Redo notes, “You understood that only S-types can access the dimension unaffected because of the astral flame on your skin so people who can’t emit the flames are immediately rejected in a burst of energy when you try to force him through it.”
“Uh- Yeah” Amy was a little surprised he understood that. “You don’t take s-type classes, how’d you know that?”.
“I was watching and it seemed to be the only thing that made sense.” Redo responds, Amy peers at him curiously. “What?” he asks.
“Nothing.” she says, walking ahead of Redo where he couldn’t see her face, Surely I’m mistaken she thought Not this quickly. Redo looked at Amy curiously. There's no mistaking that, I can’t stall forever. Redos eyes were glowing, a light purple haze burning lightly in its middle. “We aren’t gonna get the chance to eat. Wanna go hang out somewhere?”
“Sure.”
Walking away, Davon runs over,
“I’m not letting you out of my sight!” He exclaims passionately, “There's something special about you I know it..” He continues.
Amy smirks, little do you know.
“Aren’t you supposed to be recovering?” Redo asks, a little astonished.
“Ha! You think something like that could keep me down, nonsense.”
“Uhh right what could I expect…”
He slings his arm around Redo as they walk away.
