Hearing the boy out, Akasha smiled cheerfully at his statement. While it was true that he did a good first impression, she felt like she was the only one who had felt it. Maybe it was the fog that had occurred just before the impact, or because only she felt the great strength in his bestial clawed arms. 

[color=fff79a]“Mmhmm, yup you did! But I don’t think the others saw you though. It’s a shame…”[/color] Akasha replied calmly.

Now that she had calmed down, the young amazon sort of felt guilty towards the young man. Had it not been for the sudden darkness, maybe he could’ve shown off his true potential to the instructor. 

Even though it was pitch black and impossible to see, she could hear well the others, and she even recalled that she could “sense” them around her. Perhaps it was a mix of her smell and her hearing that allowed her to know where they were. They seemed to be gathering up to impress the teacher as a group.

It was then that an idea popped up in Akasha’s mind. She could still make up to her friend underneath her! When sight fails, other senses prevail, and while Akasha was no master at this, she knew for sure she could at least navigate blindly. 

While she was still sitting on top of him, with her face still inches from the guy’s, she whispered her plan to his ear. 

[color=fff79a]“Hey, I got an idea. You’re rather quick and powerful, aren’t you? How about we jump on the Chief-in-training to impress him? I’m pretty sure I can help us move around in this darkness, and I can serve as a leverage point for when you charge at him. Sounds good? Alright, get up!”[/color] She enthusiastically said, grabbing his hands as she got off from him.

While she wasn’t one to rely on plans most of the times, Akasha’s odd state of tranquility made her less brash and more aware of the situation. Some would say it’s her hyperactivity that prevented her from focusing. This sudden soothing calm indeed made her more clear-minded. Couple this with the fact that as the weakest Amazon of her tribe, she had to find ways previously to topple down stronger foes.
