"OH MY FREAKING GOSH. WHY. WHY." She shouted in her head. She turned back and dusted her dress. " Oh, no they're not hostile.. Hehe... Sorry! Really truly sorry! " She cursed in her mind as Shyvana raised her gauntlets. " R-Really! I have them controlled! They ... They're my weapons. I know. Dolls. But, it wasn't really in my power to have them. My deepest apologies!" She said, bowing in apology.
" If you don't believe me about the weapon part, I can show you just with a cotton pillow I have laying around...But I think you trust me. " She grinned.
She dusted off her dress again, before daring to ask Shyvana. " I may be a girl, but is there anything I can do? I mean, studying over and over again at the Institute is disgustingly boring, surely I can do something with these dolls...?"
"I can say this; do not underestimate what power is in your hands, it can lead to traumatic experiences in life."

Clifford continued looking as the dolls the big one had calmed down but the others were still acting…erratic. “So they are your weapons? I don’t think I have seen that kind of magic before.” He said now calm and moving his hand from his sword “Sooo…did you got hurt?”

Alyssa calmed the other two down. " Oh, no. They are my weapons. See? " Serenity, the main doll, had in her arms a long sword. Alyssa threw up a cotton pillow before Serenity dashed toward it, and tore it to pieces. The pieces of the cloth fell to the ground slowly. " Have you not seen something like this, Clifford?" She asked him worried. She didn't want to be seen as a weird girl with a weird power!

Shyvana paused before replying, she witnessed the pillow Alyssa threw into the air get torn to shreds. The Half-Dragon was in awe from the magics she witnessed. Her mouth was already open, then her voice gave in: "T-these dolls... are you sure they're under control?" Confused about her power, she asked - "If you want to assist Demacia, I need to know their capabilities..." Shyvana observed each doll... they varied in shape, color and size. They looked harmless at first glance, but Shyvana felt uneasy around them.
The Half Dragon peered at Clifford's calm expression, he certainly had more courage than her at this moment. Feeling rather inferior, Shyvana propped herself up to compensate. "Sorry for being dumbfounded... I'm rather.. "unfamiliar" with magics outside of the League.." with a trailing voice.

“Eh…not I haven’t ever seen magic quite like this, even on the great barrier where sometimes you see more primitive magics, I didn’t see something alike.”
“Once I saw something called Voodoo from a guy called Tabu but it was more about controlling your enemy trough dolls.” He said trying to think of anything similar he had experience with but nothing like that came to his mind.
“Well maybe is just a special type of magic? Where did you learn it?” Then he directed to Shyvana seeing her a “little” flustered by the strange magic “Oh don’t worry I think both of us would get dumbfounded if we saw from close up half of the stuff you see on those fields” he said trying to reassure the half-dragon.

Alyssa did not like the sound of 'special', or 'Voodoo'. " B-But I don't even know any voodoo!" Alyssa said to Clifford. She sighed. " I-I kind of learned it from the book i'm carrying now..." She finally said, putting her head down. She put her head up to look into Shyvana's eyes again.
" Capabilities? I'm not quite sure how I could demonstrate, but they could be of very good use under my supervision... They tend to get a little... fun at times. I just stick around as a overseer to make sure they don't blow up a building or something. " She opened her codex, taking the time to read a page or two while she tried to look up some of the capabilities of the dolls, there's very well a possibility that the dolls are not at full scale power.
" I can say that they are under control, Miss Shyvana. " Alyssa said very confidently.
"I can say this; do not underestimate what power is in your hands, it can lead to traumatic experiences in life."

Shyvana crossed her arms and huffed. Her posture was more confident now that she was more... informed. Her thoughts of the various tasks these dolls could perform ranged from simple escorts to even contract kill missions. This girl that stood before her was not who she seemed. A different personality maybe... hiding behind a facade of innocence. The Half Dragon hardened her look toward Alyssa speaking in a neutral tone, "If you can control them with your spellbook as well as you say, I trust you can show me; along with Clifford of course, the effectiveness your dolls have during special cases.. such as battles."
Shyvana shot a frustrated glance at Clifford before walking off to observe the dolls now floating around in mid air. A few citizens would observe from afar, but none too close as the marionettes seemed dangerous.

" V-Very well, Miss Shyvana. I see no other way to do this, but, Clifford; can I ask you to fight me? " She said, almost blankly to Clifford, she turned to him before inching back a couple feet, giving distance between her and Clifford.
" You cannot say no. " Alyssa opened her grimoire and the dolls retreated back to Alyssa, Serenity resting on her shoulder.
" You may have the first move. "
"I can say this; do not underestimate what power is in your hands, it can lead to traumatic experiences in life."

Shyvana's eyes glimmered in surprise. The rather calm atmosphere suddenly shifted. She was about to intervene, although her curiosity got the best of her. She merely crossed her arms and put on a small grin at the display. "Hmph. Interesting." The Half Dragon chuckled. She eyed Clifford before his next action.

“I trust you can show me; along with Clifford of course, the effectiveness your dolls have during special cases…such as battles."
“…Eh?” Clifford nervously muttered hearing those words it was almost as if Shyvana was asking him to fight the girl but it couldn’t be right, he hoped that Alyssa wouldn’t get the wrong idea…
“Clifford; can I ask you to fight me?” and his hopes where crushed…sigh why this happened to him? He didn’t wanted to fight a childhood friend, specially one that seemed to require help and comprehension instead of violence.
He should make things clear and refuse such an absurd demand “You cannot say no.“ Alyssa said taking her position to fight.
Shyvana was even in play to enjoy the show “…I do not believe this is a good idea." "But if you believe that you can improve yourself through fighting me I can’t refuse”
He said taking out his sword out and adopting the Schrankhut stance placing his left foot forward using a thumb grip swing the sword down and to the right, until the tip touched the ground, true edge to the right.
“I do warn you once I start fighting I have problems holding back.” He said his tone of voice had changed now blazing with force. “I reject to offer of the first move I am a Demacian knight I AM the one the will give you a handicap.”

" Very well then. You will not use the first chance to attack. Then I will. " She said, very monotone and blank. Her face shown absolutely no emotion, but Serenity started to fly. Alyssa pointed to Clifford, and Serenity knew exactly what she meant. So she let out a Stardust Reverie, three little magic volts shooting toward Clifford, though very small in size, they would prove quite a punch when they all hit.
" Perhaps you should work on holding back then. Alyssa said, still very monotone and emotionless. " It could be the death of the ones you love. "

A quick twist of his fore arm and wrist instantly provided a quick whipping action up and to the left. And with a fast downright slash he blocked two of the “volts” of magic with his sword and then dodged the last one.
“I will take your advice and now I will offer you mine: If you talk in the middles of battle you might end up biting your tongue so refrain from it unless is necessary”
He replied coldly while pointing his opened palm on the direction she was. She could probably feel the mana accumulating in the zone she was standing rapidly condensing into a blue sphere. “Dodge!” He said a second before closing his and making the sphere collapse on itself into a fiery explosion.

" I see. He owns an ugly side as well. A pity." She said, analyzing his face and emotions.
Alyssa quickly dodged out out Sphere. It may have been obvious he was giving his all at the very beginning at the fight. Thinking of what to do with this hulking spellblade, she looked for weak points ... In his armor.... Where are they?!
" Serenity. Get him. " She said monotone still. Her face emotionless. It does not show one bit of worry, hurt, or anything. Just, almost a soulless husk. Serenity had now a shield and a sword, she, with another doll, went up to Clifford to stab his face.

Clifford had already positioned into a an Albert’s position that let the upper body open with the sword pointing low and positioned on the center of the body allowing a quick response. So when the doll came to close he stroke it from below but instead of cutting it the blade explode scattering parts of the first doll then thrusting the blade in the direction of the second doll.

" A pity they lasted such a short time. " She said with a sigh. " You're not going to get anywhere picking flowers, Clifford. Cut to the chase and get me. " she said, in her same emotionless state, yet very mocking. She had only one doll left, She needs to get that one safe while the rest of the dolls are remade.
" There. " Alyssa pointed toward a certain point in his body. The remaining doll put it's hands toward Cliffords neck and proceeded to launch her doll beam. If he did block it, his sword will suffer from being burnt.
