Chapter 3: Chapter 3: An Accident!!
The door slid open with a loud *WHOOSH*, the sound of it slamming open woke Ceril. She groggily rolled over and looked towards the door. "Who…who's there?" She said in a sleepy voice, her vision a little blurry with sleep. "It's me, haven't you been waiting?" A man's voice sounded from the doorway. As Ceril's vision slowly cleared she saw a silhouette, the light from the hall outlining their body.
Her vision fully cleared and she saw Russ. He was wearing his pajamas, a soft tunic buttoned down half way and a pair of comfortable joggers. "Why are you here, at this hour?" She asked, rubbing her eyes.
"I couldn't wait any longer" Russ said. "My mind has only been filled with you!"
He walked across the room, the door closing behind him. As he approached the side of her bed Ceril jumped up and quickly tried to fix her hair. Her night gown was soft and silky, it outlined every curve of her slim figure. Her chest rising and falling with every breath. "I'm, not decent" she told him, her heart starting to beat faster.
"It's just that, I crave you!" Russ said as he placed his hand on her face. Her skin heating up as his hand rested on her soft cheek, "I needed to make a move" he said in an almost whisper.
He wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her close. Ceril made a startled whimper from the force with which he pulled her. She felt some pressure and looked up at him, placing her hand on his muscled chest. "Your sword is digging into my stomach" she whispered as their faces drew close.
Russ chuckled, "I don't have my sword."
"Oh…" Ceril started, a sultry look in her eyes, then her eyes went wide, "OH!!!".
——————————
Ceril sat up quickly in bed, her face hot, breathing heavily, her heart beating fast. Looking around she saw that she was alone. "It was only a dream" she said.
She got up and walked into the bathroom. She splashed water on her face, placed her hands on the sides of the sink and stared into the mirror. "Get it together girl" she said to herself.
She took a shower and got dressed. As she left her room a particular person happens to be walking by, it was none other than, Peter. "Hey Peter, have you seen Russ?" She asked before he walked by. Peter stopped and turned to Ceril, "Oh hey Ceril" he said "what did you just ask me?".
"I asked if you knew where Russ was" she said
"How the f*ck would I know where that dimwit is?" Peter said and walked off.
Ceril stared at Peter walking away. She blinked a couple times. "Alright then!" She said. Everyone was used to Peter's…..Peterness, so she wasn't surprised. She continued down the hall to see if she could find Russ.
Meanwhile, Russ was in the training room, he was testing out a new Holo-program Logan had created to help with trains to fight higher tier beasts and enemies. He was in the middle of a Forrest surrounded by 3, big, 4 armed, ape like creatures, each one snarling and pounding their chests. He closed his eyes and started to try and think about the strongest person he'd seen fight, but all he could do was think about Ceril.
He opened his eyes and shook his head "Get it together Russ" he said out loud and closed his eyes again. Once again Ceril was the only thing in his mind. 'I should have brought that damn sword' he thought to himself, 'then I could just turn into that swordsman'.
He opened his eyes once again and slapped himself. "Here we go" he said. Closing his eyes one last time he thought really hard. Ceril was the only thing on his mind still, he snapped his eyes open "DAMNIT" he yelled. "Program end" he spoke and the hologram faded.
As he put the sword he was holding into its scabbard, he noticed something, his skin was a slight blue color. 'What the…?' He thought. He then realized what had happened, he immediately looked down at hinself, a feeling of horror struck him. To confirm his suspicions he grabbed his chest. 'Yep, that confirms it', he thought.
"I turned into Ceril" his voice echoing through the room.
At that precise moment the door to the training room slid open and standing in the doorway was, none other than, Ceril.
Her eyes fell upon…well…herself. Her jaw hit the floor. As if looking in a mirror she saw a copy of her standing in the middle of the room wearing a plain shirt and black pants, they looked a little baggy. But what was most curious was this other Ceril was standing there, holding her chest in her hands.
"This is….not what it looks like Ceril, I swear it!" a man's voice sounded from the clone. "Russ?" Ceril said, "Just what is going on here?".
Crossing her arms she gave the clone an angry scowl. "You better explain yourself, RIGHT NOW!" Her voice grew louder. Russ quickly canceled the transformation. Walking over to where Ceril was standing he put his hands up, "it was an accident I was training and…"
"Training?" Ceril scoffed, "I thought you liked me, but then you go and do something like this?"
"I swear it was an accident" Russ pleaded.
"You accidentally used your ability to change into me and then…felt me up?" Ceril's red eyes burning. She dropped her hands to her side, her hands balled into fists, "We're done here!" She said, turned, and quickly left the training room.
"Ceril wait!" Russ rushed after her. He reached out to grab her wrist. She twirled, avoiding his hand, a red, watery aura starting to spin around her hand.
"Don't touch me" she said. Russ backed off and lowered his head. "I…I'm sorry" he told her. She huffed, turned around and stormed off. Russ was left standing in the training room staring at the empty doorway.
"Well that was….interesting" a voice sounded over the PA system. Russ looked up, "you stay out of this Logan" and he too stormed out of the training room.
