Chapter 23: Not gonna lose
Amina's blue pupils shined brightly, as sharp claws started to grow on her fingers. A soft furry grey tail was hanging behind her legs.

She fully opened her mouth showing four big fangs then screamed like a wild animal.
"Shape-Shifting, first form: cat women," she said after activating her ability.
Amina's leg muscles expanded faster to produce faster speeds. she sprinted toward Yassmine with incredible inhuman speed and slashed her with her claws. Yet her attack was blocked by something as sharp as her claws.
"Wind blades," Yassmine said while defending herself with a green blade of inner energy and wind that covered her bare hands. The wind made the skill sharper and lighter.
Amina had stepped backward just to dush with more power this time. Yassmine was prepared for the clash. But as soon as they became close, Amina changed her direction with almost an impossible flexibility.
"A fake attack!" Yassmine said in surprise.
She spun in the air, then kicked Yassmine from above making her lose balance.
She bounced at her with another claws' attack targeting her beautiful face. Yet she didn't manage to touch her as she was sent away with a strong wind blow.
Amina kept using the same strategy: attacking her opponent ferociously and changing the attack root at the last moment. that's what made her attacks tricky and unpredictable.
Several cuts had appeared on Yassmine's arms and back. She was completely losing advantage, as her enemy kept sneak-attacking her from every direction.
"She is a close-range fighter. I must get away from her." Yassmine thought as she analyzed her opponent's fighting style.
"Wind Fairy Wings"
A pair of beautiful transparent green wings made of wind appeared on Yassmine's back. She spread her wings wide like an angel as she flew high making it hard for her opponent to reach her.
"Feather storm," she launched a barrage of sharp feathers made of wind.
Amina got on her fours as she loosed her hips and shoulder's joints. Then she started running with long strides like a cat. While trying to dodge the feathers.
Even though her skin was cut and she started bleeding she didn't slow down until she was right below Yassmine. As soon as she arrived there she got on two again then jumped very hight toward Yassmine. But, the later used her wind blow to push her away.
"Shape-shifting: second form: the poisonous snake." Amina shifted in mid-air. Her body resembled that of a snake with her now longer neck, and her thin dangling tongue that hissed between her big fangs. Her neck suddenly stretched reaching Yassmine in a split second while her lower body was dragged down by the wind blow. Amina opened her mouth widely revealing a set of snake's teeth. Then she bit Yassmine in her left shoulder.
Yassmine who was caught of guard froze in mid-air then she fell to the ground. Her wings faded away and her body was paralyzed.
Amina got up from the ground and looked at her with a smirk. "My poison is circulating in your veins. You won't be able to move an inch for at least an hour. Meanwhile, I will be playing with your pretty face." Amina said while stretching her claws. She walked toward Yassmine slowly.
"As expected from one of the three twins goddess."
"She is not only beautiful but very strong as well."
"She has great mastery over her ability."
"But, how can sister Yassmine who is the descendant of the glorious White Lotus family, lose."
"It looks like she was wandering around and wasting time instead of training."
"It's a shame. She had favorable conditions yet she is just wasting her family's resources."
Yassmine was paralyzed, she couldn't move or talk. But she was able to hear them. They were talking about her as if they knew everything about her. They were speaking freely about her as if she wasn't there.
"Coach, you should stop this fight. She is gonna hurt her." Adam said.
"No, it's not over yet. The fight will end if one of them surrenders or was badly injured." the coach responded.
"What! How could she surrender if she couldn't move or talk? You have to stop this."
"Look at her face. Does she look like she gave up."
Adam looked at her face closely. The only emotions he saw were anger and unwillingness to give up. But his heart clenched when he saw Amina with her evil smile arriving in front of her. Her claws moving slowly toward Yassmine's face.
Blood splattered on the floor. Making all the students open their mouths from shock. As it wasn't Yassmine who is bleeding but Amina. There was a big horizontal gash on her stomach. "Wind blade," Yassmine had slashed her opponent with her right hand covered with her inner energy fused with the wind in the form of a blade.
She had been fighting the poison with her white energy since the moment she was bitten. And finally, she was able to detoxify her self. Thus, being able to move again.
Amina groaned loudly from pain stepping backward. "Help! I am bleeding," she called for help as she lied on her back. Her face became pale from both pain and fear: " Please someone help! I don't wanna die." then she looked toward Yassmine and said: "I am sorry, sister. please, save me, you are a healer."
"Stop freaking out, you are not gonna die or anything. Even a normal won't die for this wound let alone a D_ranker like you."
Yassmine leaned down toward Amina, put her hand on her stomach, green light glowed from her graceful hands as she started healing her. After all, she will be held responsible if anything bad happened to Amina.
The later's fear started to fade away as well as the pain. Just to replaced by surprise and disbelief. She had begged Yassmine for help but she didn't think she will agree to treat her after what she had done to her. Just A while ago I was trying to hurt her and mess her face with scars. And now she is saving my life when no other one did. Tears started to fell from Amina's watery eyes. And then she started to cry loudly.
After five minutes, the wound had completely healed. Amina's slim white stomach became as flawless as she was before the gash.
"I...am...so sor..ry," she says very embarrassed to even look Yassmine in the eyes.
Yassmine looked at her face for a brief moment. Then, she turned her face and went toward the door of the gymnasium as the class had finished some time ago.
