“She seems excited,” Lidy giggled as we walked over to the door that Kieta had just walked through.

“Leave her be. Keita will come to me in her own time, not like I don’t have enough else to do right now,” I said as I pushed the door open to find a small room filled with monitors and panels with more displays. “Wow, You really spiffed this place up!”

“I worked for a privately contracted weapons research facility before you blew up the known universe. Once you got up top to deal with the sea witch, I got all my memories back of who I was then. Now I can create some pretty wild things thanks to this thing that you gave me,” Kieta said, pointing to her eyes that were a series of moving cogs like the inside of a watch.

“I guess making computers and things like that aren’t really much of a problem for you then,” I laughed, and Kieta’s cogs rolled around in her head.

“I could build a computer from scratch before I left grade school when I was fourteen. I didn’t need these eyes for that. These things let me control the idea’s as I create them, allowing me to add strange and unique features. Mind you, what I was doing before was just playing around compared to what I have made in the past hour,” Kieta explained, and I nodded.

“So, you need us to test out how the features and abilities will work out in a real combat situation?” I asked, and Kieta nodded.

“Yes, a lot of the ideas looked good on paper and in my mind, but there might be better ways to execute them or better weapon designs. Lidy, I am going to have you using all my newer weapons and Zack using the ones I made before I got my memories back, okay?” Kieta asked, and I put up my hands to protest.

“Hey! I don’t think that this is okay!” I said, but Kieta gave me a look.

“Good thing I didn’t ask you,” Kieta said, and Liddy giggled.

“Looks like you are going to have to try a lot harder,” Lidy said with a devilish smile as she turned to look at me, and I groaned, but I was secretly happy.

No point in complaining about evening the odds. I knew how strong Lidy had been before; I don’t think she had progressed since then.

“All right. Let’s get to this then, since all I have been hearing today is shit talk. Time to put your money where your mouth is, Cafeteria Lady!” I laughed, and Lidy’s eyes snapped to a glare, and her expression became that of one severely pissed off.

“You know how much I hate when you call me that!” Lidy said in a deeper and more demonic voice as her body grew, but I was already running for the door.

“How do you open this thing?!” I asked as I tried to find a button for the door as Lidy started to stop over to me, twice her average size and looking slightly pissed off.

“What is the magic word?” Keita asked with a chuckle.

“Please open the door, or I will not survive to test the damn weapons!” I roared, and then the door opened.

I stumbled inside as staff pushed out of the wall on the far side of the hundred-foot room. I burst across the metal floor as I heard Lidy getting closer to me.

I grabbed the staff, whirling it as I spun around, and connected with one of Lidy’s massive shoulders. The weapon activated, and a pulse of purple light sent Lidy into a wall like a pinball, bouncing off it and landing on the far side of the room.

A sword with intricate glowing purple designs appeared from the wall beside when Lidy landed. The enraged Demon woman looked over at it as she stood back up and then took it with a smile as she turned to face me.

I whirled my staff with my own smile, creating a purple halo surrounding me, and I prepared for Lidy’s attack.

She raised the sword, pushed a button, and then I was lying on the ground gasping for air; the staff broke into three pieces.

“Ow!” I said as I got off the ground, slowly catching my breath as a shield pushed out of the wall.

I grabbed it and put it up in front of me. I did not like that sword, and I wasn’t sure that this shield would make much of a difference.

“Ready for round two?” Lidy yelled across.

“No!” Shouted as I activated my Earth and Fire pact.

As I drew in elemental energies, my skin turned black with cracks in it, but my feet wouldn’t weld to the metal below my feet. It was almost like the floor wasn’t even there; nothing I tried with my Pacts was having any effect.

“The room that you are in is a spatial area that can’t be broken or changed. The metal around you is just a picture to define the area,” Kieta called out over an intercom, and I growled as Lidy raised her Gravity Sword to point at me.

I braced myself, but when Lidy fired the blast of energy at me into my shield, it reflected back, knocking Lidy off her feet. I watched as she flew back into the wall, but she flipped, planting her feet on the wall as a red chain whip came out of the wall.

Lidy grabbed it and launched it at me as a blue sword with a wave-like glass blade pushed out of the wall. I turned back to grab it and then jumped out of the way from a slam from Lidy’s whip.

I had to watch out for defecting the chain in the wrong place, or I could bring the tip back to myself. I rolled and came up, but Lidy burst forward before I could get it up, and she kicked it out of my hand as I brought my blue sword up to block.
