Countess Dante dashes into the Scorpion's Den! (for CaptainL)

[Vc0m]

"Crap...", Chika thought the moment she gave Isabella the cleaning tools: "Should've also forced her to pay for it..."

Chika knew that pushing Isabella too much would land her in another potential fight. If there was anything she could admire of the blonde, it was that she was stubborn. If only she channeled that stubborness to focus more on training rather than picking fights with dojos...

Chika shook her head, heading for the brush and detergent. The idea of cleaning the ring again annoyed the Raven Knight to no end... but she would already have to explain to her dad the broken window. She wanted to hide the evidence of her and Countess's battle as soon as possible. Giving one last look to Isabella, Chika got her eyes off the Martial Artist, focusing on cleaning the ring in the aftermath of their battle!

With Chika fleeing the scene, that left Isabella to attend to cleaning up her own mess. And as she set to sweeping some broken glass into a dustpan, she let out a grumble. This was beneath her mastery of the deadly fighting arts - her unparalleled talents, wasted on mere manual labor. For someone else, too - someone she should well have killed, nay, obliterated with the force of a single poke. The Countess did not bow to anyone! Who was she to handle someone else's chores?

But for better or worse, Chika had gotten lucky. And Isabella was the one who had to pay for her streak of luck. Her body and her pride had both been left bruised, and unfortunately, she was in no shape to do anything about it. She grit her teeth and squeezed tighter at the handle of the broom just thinking of how it had ended up this way. But, as she let out a huff, Isabella vowed that this wouldn't be the end. She lifted her chin, staring up at the ceiling in defiance. If Chika wanted to do this to her...then once Isabella finished cleaning up and got the Black Dragon Fighting Society established, the Raven Knight would rue the day she decided to attract the ire of the Deadliest Woman Alive! Some day, she'd have her revenge!

Eventually!
