Nevertheless, here she was among sinners and she was supposed to have a good time. So she did her best to smile when asked. She followed the instructions she was given. She was suppose to wear something she could run in. It was strongly urged that she not wear a dress. So Tempris had on a sleeveless top, but opted to still wear her veil with the gold band over her forehead.

The girl was guided to a road before being pulled out. Tempris was confused when the attended said that they did not want her to get hurt because she was a kid or something stupid. Tempris protested saying that she was just as good as anyone, plus she was not just a normal person. She was a powerful and respected… or at least partially feared at least. At least, that's what she told herself. Then she stormed off to the spot only, it was too late.

She did not expect the event to be people running from pulls. That seemed a bit… extreme. Not only that, none of them were fighting. Like who would want to run from bulls and not defend their selves. It was blasphemy. Though she was happy that fate intervened. This was definitely something she did not want to partake in. Still, she watched if only to say she was there if her guild master ever inquired about the event. Surely she would be find with Tempris not actually running away from any bulls. It was an opt in system right? Though, she did wonder if anyone would try and use this to bully her and say she was too afraid. The girl clasped her hands and prayed that she would not have to deal with that in the future.
As she watched, from the side lines, she saw that nobody was getting hurt. It was good, she did not want to see people die by the stampeding bulls. However it was clear some of the people were not fast enough to outrun the animal.

It was time, they gave the girl a red cloth which she remembered reading about before the event started. Waving the flag pissed off the bull and made it charge her. She needed to make the bull angry and charge the flag a few times before just slaying it. She was sure she could do it, but she did become a little nervous when she was told she could not bring her sword. They gave her a much smaller, less fiery one. It was a little disappointing but she played along. After all, if she decides she had enough of the event. She will just purify the bull. Attacking her was a sin after all. At least, it would be a sin today
The crowd was static, fired up from watching the running of the bulls. They were ready to watch some genuine bull fighting cheering for whatever name was read off. When it was time for Tempris’s name to be announced the crowd was amped up from the last performance.

The girl stood quietly waiting for the door to the bull pin to open up. The crowd gasped as the announcer built up a narrative for the bull. Random numbers about how dangerous and the many people it could kill if it was set free. He even gave it a backstory saying how it was trying to stampede a nearby forest and it would continue to stampede if some hero does not stop it. It was up to this small girl to save the land and defeat this terrible creature of rampage and stampede.

Luckily for her, she was given a chance to stand up and get her foot stabled. She held out the flag and started waving it. The bull charged her again but instead of spinning around she dived out the way. The crowd cheered the girl, if not to give her hope. The life a young girl was more important to the show though they seem to still like the performance.

It was exciting to see someone struggle. Her nervousness got the better of her. She felt like if she was going to fall, she should fall on her own terms. It was less embarrassing that way. She tucked her head in and rolled, springing back up to her feet with the flag in hand. Then she held out the flag again and, once again, waved it in front of the bull. As predicted the bull charged the girl and the girl pulled the flag away at the last second and half spun instead of completely spinning around. This saved her footing and she did not fall and the crowd… went wild. The announcer was having a field day explaining how the girl was a quick learner and was just warming up to this devastating villain of a bull. Now that the girl had her footing he questioned the crowd on what she should do next. So the crowd cheered for more action. Then the announcer spoke to the girl, asking if she would give them what they wanted.
The girl huffed, not wanting to be controlled or ordered by a bunch of sinners. But, she raised her sword in response before sheathing it.

There were gasp, awes, and a thunder of applause. Nobody expected this level of a performance. Surely Empyrean Divine mages were a site to behold. The announcer thought so as he mentioned that they did not plan to show any bull riding. He wondered if the girl bit off more than she could chew. Tempris pulled the cape forgetting her vast strength and the pull roared while standing up on its hind legs. The girl then loosen her pull so the bull would go back down. She could not kill it that way. It would be too boring right? She was supposed to use her sword though she did not really like the blood.

Only suddenly the bull bucked and the girl went into the air. If she did not have her hands on the cloth, then she would of surely flew off. Sadily, her lack of weight was not helping her stay on the creature. It continued to buck and run sending the girl up and down till she was force to let go and was tossed onto the ground. The crowd gasped. The announcer teased that the girl could be out of the fight. The evil bull might have bested the hero. What would they do if she did not get back up. The girl did get back up, rubbing the dirt off her outfit. Such heresy, this bull really pissed her off.
So she roared at the bull. The bull did not respond at first as it shook the cloth off. Once it freed itself of that nuisance, he found the girl and then kicked the sand. Then it charged forward with its horns down. It was going to skewer the girl, if it could. But well, Tempris was not a normal little girl. She grabbed the bull by the horns… literally. The bull slowed down to a halt pushing after pushing the girl 3 meters back. Dust clouds filled the area. The crowd gasped. The announcer was unsure what happened but decided to cheer on the girl. The crowd joined in on the cheering. As the smoke cleared, everyone saw the girl pulled the bull’s head down to the ground, rubbing its face in the dirt. The girl then jerked the creature to the side, turning it on its back. The bull cried but Tempris did not care. She was angry with the creature and would quiet it with her own hands. It was going to be bloodless but that was okay. She snapped its neck and then stood up. The creature was not moving. The crowd was silent for a moment. Then they roared their cheers. Her bull fight was a success and everyone loved it. Now it was time for her to get cleaned up.
