A bead of sweat rolled down Kristsi's forhead. She quickly brushed it aside and tried to regain her concentration.

"Really Enelra, is this necessary?" Kell asked, his voice cracking in his nervousness. He was securely tied to wall in a spread-eagle position.

Kristsi didn't bother to answer. She readjusted her aim and then flicked the tiny blade in Kell's direction. Kell whimpered and screwed his eyes tightly shut. The blade made a hollow thud as it struck the wood. Kell let out his breath slowly in relief and slowly openend his eyes, looking around to see where the blade hit. He looked down and shrieked. The blade had come to a rest uncomfortably close to his crotch.

Kristsi laughed wickedly. "It might be a little fun to see how much less of a man I could make you..."

Kell's face turned various shades of red, from humiliation to rage.

"This is NOT my idea of training! I will NOT be your little play-thing!"

Kristsi chuckled to herself and pulled out a new weapon--a small crossbow--and took aim again."

Enelra..." Kell whined.

The minature arrow whizzed through the air stuck very close to him, pinning his black shirt to the wall.

"This is fun..." Kristsi laughed to herself as Kell sreamed again.

"What other 'fun' weapons can you use, and perferably not on me?" Kell questioned, struggling against the strong ropes. Kristsi walked over to him and patted him on the cheek.

"Just think of this as my little payback for all the crap you put me through," she said in a sweet voice. She laughed again as she untied the ropes. "You can relax now. I'm finished practicing with those for now. I need some new skills so I can have at least a half-chance against Celly."

"Fine. But I don't want to be involved in your 'fun' this time," Kell said.

"You're such a baby," Kristsi said absently as she started walking toward the woods. "Now, how exactly does one go about finding their powers?"
