+Alicia scanned across the clearing. Her cat eyes darted across the field, her
+ears focused forward and ready for victory. The battlefield was a wide open
+grassy field without any good spots to take cover. Her team was losing. Badly.
+Her team's flag was solidly in the hands of the enemy and every attempt to
+wrestle it free had failed. Alicia looked over the field and got a very terrible
+idea. She turned towards her friend Tistus and whispered "We're going to try a
+pincer attack, when you get the flag, run like your life depends on it" into his
+ear. Tistus nodded back and stretched his legs a little. Alicia told the other
+group the plan via hand signals. Alicia sent the "go" signal and they all took
+off sprinting.
+
+The two groups managed to pinch the blue team together, their backs against
+eachother and tails interlocking for stability. Zekas, the blue team leader with
+the red team's flag loomed over red team and readied his wooden sword. His plan
+almost worked, if only he wasn't struck in the back on his right side by
+Alicia's matching wooden sword. Zekas dropped his sword and growled at Alicia,
+baring his shark teeth to her. Tistus managed to squeeze between the other blue
+team members and yanked the flag free. He held it for dear life in his claws and
+gave Alicia a signal with his tail.
+
+Alicia took a hit to the side from one of the guards she was struggling against
+and a small trickle of blood started to run down her left leg. Zekas noticed
+that his flag was missing and saw Alicia's cut, sending him into a rage. "You
+witch, I'll kill you!". Zekas knocked Alicia to the ground with an uppercut and
+Tistus sprinted off for home base while blue team surrounded Alicia. Zekas tried
+to grab what he thought was the flag and got Alicia's blood on his hand. Zekas
+growled again and looked around, seeing Tistus fleeing like his life depended on
+it.
+
+"AFTER THEM!"
+
+Blue team took off and tried to catch up with Tistus, but the distraction was
+long enough that his victory was all but guaranteed. The rest of red team didn't
+bother to chase down blue team, they knew Tistus was the fastest sprinter at the
+bladecraft school.
+
+The horn sound resonated throughout the area. Tistus had made it to the base and
+the exercise was over.
+
+Red team had won.
+
+Puri helped Alicia up and gave her a bandage. Alicia dressed her wound and felt
+a surge of lightning race up her hand. The exact kind of surge she didn't want
+to have around other people.
+
+_No no no no no no. Focus, calm, let it drain to the lightning rod in my heart._
+Alicia ran through the exercises her father told her to do and the feeling
+settled. The surge had stopped, but so had the bleeding. Alicia and the rest of
+her team started walking back to camp, catching up with Zekas' slow gait.
+
+Zekas growled at Alicia in frustration, "Nice trick with that fake flag. You got
+me."
+
+"Trick? Oh, the guard to my left cut my leg with his sword. I think you got
+got."
+
+Zekas facepalmed and looked at Alicia. No real emotion, he just looked at her.
+Alicia's roughly six foot snep frame. There was a trickle of blood down her left
+side, but other than that her white fur and gray spots were well-kept, with her
+chocolate brown hair tied into a battle bun. "Lemme see that wound."
+
+"I'm gonna let the apothecary take a look at it, it's still hurting but I can
+walk on it."
+
+Alicia and Zekas started walking back to camp with the remnants of their teams.
+
+Zekas laughed, "At least you didn't let that witch beat you." and he lead the
+way towards the teacher's garrison.
+
+Alicia nervously laughed back and followed suit.
