'Sir... yes... we were just heading out to the dueling rounds to ger ready." Dulles, who had dumped his try onto nova, said nervously. 'Fine, I will let you settle this through the time-honored means of dueling. But If you lose Dulles, you will get detention for a week. Am I clear?' Donovan said.
_ "Yes sir.' Dulles nodded shaikily and he and the others raced out of the room, and headed for the Dueling fields.

I'm sorry Nova for all this. your father feared something like this might happen" The Headmaster said sadly. "Unfortunately he was proven right. Good luck at the duel, I will oversee it. See you at the dueling grounds." The Headmaster turned and walked away.

"A week's worth of detention? Whew! That's a stern punishment! detention means you have to write down old texts while shackled to the floor, for ten hours!" Tristan shivered. "I knew a guy that got two weeks of that, and he was awreck afterwords. Let's go kick some butt!" he got up from the table.
