Challenge

"Oh no...." Elci said, barely breathing. "The White Haired Demon...." Yavn looked up, and sure enough, the man with the falcon was approaching Yavn. A loud tapping could be heard as his hard leather boots hit the asphalt in the rain, which had just started.

"It's a shame, isn't it Yavn? Leaving a scar on that pretty golden skin," the man said as he brushed a few hairs out of his face.

"How do you know my name..."

"Everyone knows the name of the hero of the Silver Cloud. Well, who used to be the hero.."

"Shut up!!!!" Elci screamed...

"Tut-tut, don't be so naughty little girl." He kicked Elci across the pavement.

"DON'T TOUCH HER!" Came a voice from behind the man. He turned around to see Brad's blade inches from his face."How dare you hit a girl, NeoPet or human."

"If it is a duel you want, it's a duel you'll get.... atop the one remaining building..."

"The Solid Silver Tower? The most valuable monument in Neopia... fine.. but first.. let me bring Yavn and Elcikigon to my house....."

"Fine..... meet me at the top of the Silver Tower in 2 hours...."

"Fine...."

"Brad, don't go..." Elci said in a eerie voice.

"Brad, at least let me come..." Yavn whispered.

"No. Yavn, you can't come. He'll try to threaten me by going after you."

"Brad..."

"No. And the same goes for you Elci."

Yavn was about to start arguing, but Brad put his finger to his lips and walked out of the door." Elci then started to speak.

"You're going, aren't you Yavn?"

"Yep. And I know you are going to."

"Am I that transparent?"

Brad stood outside the tower, and the man was waiting. Evil NeoPets stormed across the ground and through the sky. And injured creatures laid on the ground out of Brad's reach. Mist raised from the ground as the rain hit it. Thunder filled the entire city. But all of this had been spaced out of Brad's mind. He was 100 percent focused on his goal. Slaying the white haired demon. The elevator door swung open, and Brad entered. And it seemed almost immediately that he had reached the top.

"Hello. Right on time, Brad."

"I'd say the same, but I don't know your name."

"My name is Lusajn."

"Lusajn. Odd name." Brad took his sword and sliced some fabric off his shirt. "When this hits the ground, let the duel begin."

"Fine." Brad dropped the fabric, and it hit the cold steel. And Lusajn was the one who made the first move....
