100 Lesson of Speed

As the next day came, so did our training with Maistresse come as well. She scares me. She is very scary because she has an intimidating stare that is hard to look away from, but she’s also a lot older than me so that makes her somewhat acceptable. As we walked in, something about the room changed. It was darker than usual, but not in a good way like it used to be before we had lights in there. She stood there with a smile on her face as she stared at us with her icy eyes as if she were examining us, and she could see us all naked. “Hello, students,” she chuckled as we all stood there in complete shock at her behavior.

We were all scared of her, but at least we knew that she wasn’t a monster like Rocke was. Rocke was scary; there is no doubt about that, but at least he was honest with his intentions whereas Maistresse doesn’t seem to have any real intentions as she just smiles, and smiles, and smiles, and smiles, and smiles, and smiles, and smiles.

It’s as if she has no emotion or feelings in her at all. She doesn’t seem like a person at all, but an emotionless machine that just needs to exist for whatever reason it has for, which in this case is to train us, although I think she has other reasons for existing than that.

We all waved slowly as she gave us a nod in return before she spoke once again. “So, today we’ll probably go back to our exercising strategy soon, but first I’ll test your strength with your speed.”

“How?” Greg asked as he crossed his arms in front of his chest. “You’ll see,” she responded. Suddenly, she charged at him with her wand in hand as he jumped out of the way and got out of the way before she hit the wall behind him and made a loud clunking sound as we all groaned.

She then turned around with no sort of bruises on her body or anything. The only thing that was changed was her hair was slightly disheveled as if it was blown about in the wind by a strong force. “Okay, so you can dodge,” she nodded. “You’re pretty quick for a human.”

I frowned as she said this. But all of a sudden she charged in September who jumped out of the way quickly with no hesitation as she got out of the way and made it clear that she could dodge her attacks if she wanted to. In fact, if I remember correctly, I believe September can actually dodge every attack Maistresse can throw at her with little to no problem as she can actually move so fast that Maistresse would never be able to hit her with anything at all.

But all of a sudden Maistresse began to change her strategy a bit. Now instead of charging towards us with her wand out, she would just wave her wand around in front of herself and then suddenly move her arm forward with her palm facing outwards. We all stood there in silence as we watched her do this before suddenly a gust of wind blew in September who was standing in front of Maistresse as she began to fall down onto the ground.

“I’m surprised,” Maitresse chuckled. She turned towards Greg as he got out of the way of the falling September who got up again with a grin on her face as she saw everyone watching her. “What?” September asked. Maistresse chuckled once more. “I thought you’d predict my move,” she replied. “I guess not.”

.....

“I guess not??” September hissed as she glared at Maistresse before looking at Greg again as he got out of the way of her next move where she used her wand to shoot a ball of fire at her. But Maistresse dodged it easily and made a big puff of smoke come out from behind her as she laughed.

“Alright, enough of you. Malachi, you and Tisiah, all at once, attack me now,” she said. We nodded, although I felt weird about it, and we charged. Malachi swung his wand at Maistresse but she dodged it, but Tisiah was unable to do anything as he was pushed back by a gust of wind before falling down onto the ground. I needed to do something now, or I was going to look like a fool, and I didn’t want to look like a fool right now because I would die in a second if I didn’t do anything.

I quickly charged up my Perk before I moved out of the way as Maistresse moved around me. Then I swung my fist towards her with as much force that I should muster, and I punched her in the stomach with my left hand while still holding my wand in my right.

Maistresse fell to her knees as she coughed up a little bit of blood as she got up. “Nice,” she said with a laugh in her voice as she stared at me with her cold eyes, “but it doesn’t do much.”

“What do you mean?” I asked with a frown.

Maistresse looked at me as if she were studying me before she began to speak. “You think about power but not even the speed enough to use it properly,” she said with a sigh. I was shocked by this statement since I thought I knew my powers better than anyone else and I knew I could make good use of it. How would she know?

I felt a bit angry at this statement, but I held my tongue as well as I stared at her with my arms crossed in front of me while I kept my mouth closed. She chuckled and got up, wiping her lips with a handkerchief from her pocket before she put it back in her pocket and continued walking in front of us again.

“Today, we’ll go on the treadmills,” she said. “You guys need to work on your speed and dodging, and not only those, but preparing for which attack they’ll use.” I sighed and looked over at Nikki as she nodded with her mouth open, and then she looked back at Maistresse as if she were in awe of her.

We went into the gym section, where there were five treadmills lined up against each other with some weights hanging above them as well as some weights lying on the ground as well as some free weights on the side.

“Get to it,” Maitresse said as she walked towards a chair and sat. I turned on the treadmills and looked at September, who did the same. I sighed. Was she still mad at me? She still seemed mad at me, but maybe that was just because she wanted to keep everyone in their place and make sure everyone knows who’s in charge here. Or maybe Malachi was the problem here?

I heard footsteps come towards us, and then a few minutes later Greg walked towards us and smiled as he took off his shoes.

“Helps run faster,” he said.

I winced a bit, “Aren’t you just gonna slip and fall?” He shook his head and replied, “Nope, I’ll be fine.” He walked over to one of the treadmills and started walking on it as he spoke. “I do this all the time back home.” I shrugged worriedly as I saw him start running on it and going very fast before he stopped after only a few seconds and jumped off the machine onto the floor with a thud before walking towards us.

“Yeah, just like that,” he said with a laugh as he wiped the sweat from his brow with a towel he got from one of the machines before he sat on one of the chairs and put on his shoes. I chuckled and began running on the treadmill myself as Greg watched me with a smile on his face.

I could feel the burn in my muscles and knew that this was going to help me train faster than normal so it wouldn’t hurt so much later on, but then September started running next to me as well with a smile on her face as she glanced over at me and then started to sigh.

Uh, is something wrong? Why is she sighing at me? What is she not happy about?

Preview:

She started running on her treadmill and she was really fast too, but she was going slower than usual though. “Hey, uh Connor,” she said as I looked over at her.

I looked at her with confusion on my face as she ran beside me for a moment before I could understand what she was saying. “Don’t tell Nikki this okay?”

Oh no, oh no, oh no, what is she talking about now?

She looked over at Greg who was watching us from the side as I slowed down my pace a bit to let her talk. September looked quickly to the right, seeing Nikki on the other side of the little group of treadmills. Then she turned back to me.
