It didn't even feel like a battle anymore and it was growing hard to stay focused when she was so tired. She didn't want to give up though. That's what her family would expect. "You're a quitter, Morrigan," they would mock. Never good enough for anything. Couldn't even battle one shade monster with the help of special gems. She was a failure.. a failure.. a failure..

Ah. Her brooch. Lacie held it in the palm of her hand, closing her fist over it, and holding it close to her chest. She was already finding herself attached to the accessory. It was very precious to her, a result of her own hard work.
Lacie tilted her head, wondering what the instructor meant by her ominous words. When the black creature rushed towards Lacie, she found herself stumbling backwards. It was only by a narrow margin of luck that she tripped and fell to the right, the shadow slamming into the spot that she had formerly stood.
The shade was only half her height but Lacie still felt apprehensive. Clutching her brooch in her other hand, Lacie looked at it. She would have to fight.
She fastened the brooch to her chest. "It's all right. Ylaria will help if something goes wrong." She told herself.
When the shade came back towards her, Lacie attempted a kick.
Options (note to myself)
Diamond: Take 3 damage each turn instead of 5.
Sapphire: Do not subtract 6 from your attack roll for one turn.
Effectiveness: 10 (3 gem effects)
Lacie's HP: 27/30

Lumi's ears twitched slightly, she was getting a little annoyed with this shade, but she could see the shade was starting to get less and less active. Perhaps her attacks were actually landing and doing some damage. That would be a great idea since she was still very unsure of what she was doing. All she knew was that if she could he'd be hiding behind someone letting them do all the dirty work, "Hey you stupid...uft"The blow from the shade took her off guard this time. But it was okay because she was able to land a punch on the shade before she went down. Battle Stats Lumi's HP: 18/30 ((??)) Shade HP: 14/25 Gem in use:  Diamond: Take 3 damage each turn instead of 5. Ruby: Pacify the shade for one turn, essentially charming it to be your ally, and take no damage for that turn.

Hami paused for a moment, thinking she'd take down some notes and possibly pencil in somewhere she needed training in this whole 'combat thing.' In any normal circumstance where she wasn't going up against something that could, really, kill her (and really -kill- her, not just knock her out for a few minutes), this would be okay.
As it stood, apparently Hamika forgot that the shade was still going to hit her.
There went the jaw again. This time, she didn't bother trying to put it back. She just left the thing hangin' about and tried to not drool too much.
Her fault, this was her fault, yes yes. the_scowling_cat HP: 21/30

The shade almost seemed hesitant but that didn't keep it from moving in again to have another hit at Mitsu. The lycan was unable to block but that didn't keep her from retaliating. Despite her natural strength being on lock down she still managed to hit the shade with a very solid punch sending the creature flying back a few paces. It staggered in stance before finally coming back around. It wasn't quite done yet.

"I AM NOT A FAILURE," she cried out loud, oblivious to the instructor and students around her. It was as if her parents were there, nagging her, pushing her, telling her to give up. Though she barely had the strength to stand, she pushed herself into the shade creature, causing them both to fall over backwards and onto the floor. "I will.. not.. fail."

The owl-like demon watched as the shade faded away. It was over, he felt sort of proud of himself. He managed to do it, and his gem had worked. He wasn't sure what he felt more accomplished over, the fact that he'd won or that his work over the past couple of days had worked. Definitely a good bit of both.
With his own battle over, he moved out of the way of the other students and sat down, curling his wings around himself while he rested. He wanted to get up, to help Lumi and Kettil. But Endzela had called out to Ylaria to give Kettil aid, and Lumi was still on her own. And she wasn't even a student yet.
But he was sure he wasn't allowed to help, this was a task for them individually, not something he could really interfere with. He would just have to see how they fared and how their instructor handled it.

She found herself looking up at the stupid shade, ears flat against her head and tails completely fluffed. She was definitely not having fun. Rushing the shade trying to scratch at it she started to get really mad.
"do you REALISE how much this dress cost!? Do you realise how much I HATE to do my nails!?"If it was one thing Lumi could do it was get annoyed when things weren't going her way, and right now it seemed as if things were not going her way.

The shade barely touched Mitsu before she wheeled around and clocked the shade in the head like Shun instructed. Head shots were always more effective. That's what she remembered the reaper telling her and thus she applied that knowledge. It did the job too, as soon as she made contact the shade stagger, faltered, and was suddenly gone in a blink of an eye.

"I... am.. not.. a.. failure..." She knew that she should get the instructor to intervene.. but.. wouldn't that be cowardice? She had fought so long and for so hard. She had worked really hard on her armlet and she didn't want to fail. She didn't work so hard to fail, but she was so tired. So weak. She reached over for the boot she had lost during the battle and hugged it to her chest and that's when she lost control and the tears started flooding forth. She was sobbing in the middle of class, sobbing in front of her friends and strangers, and most, sobbing in front of the instructor and this shade that she had so desperately fought with all her might. Maybe her parents were right, maybe she would never amount to anything in her life.
Gently, she took off the armlet she had made. She really did love it. She had never made anything so beautiful in her life and it had helped her in battle. It had worked. How she wished she didn't have to return home. How she wished she could live here and make jewelry for the rest of her life. Silly, childish thoughts.
"I'm sorry, Instructor Ylaria, I cannot go on. I failed," and the young demon lowered her head in shame.

Even with all her rage and anger building towards this shade Lumi noticed that she was starting to get tired. It was getting harder to throw each punch and harder to dodge the shade. "Okay seriously...this isn't funny anymore...wont you just go away..."She seriously thought if this is what the academy was like she might need alot of friends.

Noticing Julian off to the side Lumi felt a little embarrassed, but then again he was a second year didn't he say? He had training in this type of thing right...but here she was struggling to defeat a stupid shade...okay well the shade wasn't that stupid...but it sure was annoying. And could hit...hard, and apparently move out of the way before she could hit. This was not going well.

Hamika hit it again! This time with her bag! The shade decided it was time to put her jaw back by hitting her in the -other- direction. It snapped back into place and she cheered for a moment.
