[b]The force of the blows knocks her to the side, a drop of blood drips from her nose and onto the grass.
After a moment she gets back up, stubbornly, and faces you again.[/b]
...that the best you got?

[b]Curling up his left hand, he pools the blood from the self-inflicted wound and throws it in your eyes. He follows through by spinning around clockwise, sweeping your legs in the motion.[/b] Your skills have gotten you this far, and I don't believe in wasting potential.

Edited by Kinda Red: 6/28/2015 6:37:35 PM[b]She falls down, the blood blinding her for a second as she wipes it off and stands again. She brushes herself off and then throws herself in your direction with an arm cocked back for a punch.[/b]
-
[b]With a single long step, he ducks under your arm and stands again facing you.[/b] Note that this is a one time offer. Your services would be welcome amongst our ranks. The decision is entirely up to you, but I want the opinion of the true you... Not some meek host to an arrogant God.
-
[b]She pauses for a second, then seems to start smiling. Then laughing... And she straightens up, putting her arms out as if to run it in your face: The hole in her torso gone, but the hole in the fabric of her clothes is visible. She wipes the blood off her upper lip, grinning broadly.[/b] The true me? And you want my skills? Well first, you have to know what my skills [i]are[/i] before you stab me in the gut, then fail to stop me from healing it up. It did hurt, mind you, but you really need to keep the pressure on me next time. [b]She paces around, as if thinking.[/b] And what exactly were you planning on telling Winston? That I had "fallen" on your sword accidentally?
-
Funny... [b]He crouches down to pick up his sword which he tossed aside.[/b] I don't recall stabbing you, [b]His stare is piercing.[/b] I do remember this form of trickery to be native to the style of your previous mentor.

[spoiler]To anyone looking I was actually being a dumbass, my bad. [quote]With a dash faster than visible, he swipes across your forehead with a choked grip, trimming your bangs and cutting a layer of skin. As the swipe finishes, the sword flies out of his hand, and he grabs your throat with his right hand and jabs you in the stomach with his left.[/quote]I thought he stabbed me right there, "jabs you in the stomach" being the part I thought it was. Sooooooo that part wasn't actually part of the plan .-. My fault. Going on assuming all the stuff in between was trickery, my plan would have been so much better if he had actually stabbed me... [/spoiler] Well shit. Guess I got sloppy there. Could have sworn it was your sword...
-
All the more reason to take our generous offer. Do you wish to see your queen again?
-
Edited by Kinda Red: 6/28/2015 7:48:19 PM[b]She walks forward, the punches you right in the nose with a crack. Her knee slams into your waistline, and she backs up again.[/b] Even, since I took yours. Now what was the question?
-
[b]Dante cups his hands over his face, blood oozing through his fingers.[/b] Fair enough... You admired miss Bellicose, correct? You'd want to see her again and extract revenge on her murderer?
-
You know the answer to that already I think. Good fight though, I must say. Could have done with more, you know, fighting.
-
I'm happy to hear, but the question remains: Do you pledge your loyalty to our true lady, Daughter of the King?
-
I haven't exactly met her yet have I?
-
Only the guard has.
-
Well, put yourself in my position okay? Someone completely new comes up, pretty much demands I give him something, mentions briefly the group he's with and the leader vaguely, then duel, then pledging my loyalty to said vague leader who I've never even heard of prior. What would you do exactly?
-
Seeing how the the others are nearly as powerful as myself, and your queen was your idol, I would take it.
-
Your biased opinion is very biased. You didn't even do it right you cheater. Geez... What were we talking about again? We're getting off topic again.
-
[b]He looks at you with a sincere stare.[/b] Felix killed June. He has the strength of his allies, a strength we do not have anymore. He will slaughter us.
-
.....and what....?
-
And you can even the odds. I'll save the killing blow for you if you wish.
-
I think June would rather have that honor, would only be fair. That's said: if she decides to take her time I'll probably end up doing it myself, I could just see them doing the cliche monologue and end up with him getting back out. Wouldn't like that to happen.
-
[b]He holds out the compass.[/b] All you need to do is open it. After that, I can either return you to Winston, or you may meet the Princess.
-
Edited by Kinda Red: 6/29/2015 12:28:29 AM[b]She takes it[/b] Why didn't you just say that from the start?
-
Either way, you'll be returned home. Whether you would like to meet Milady now is up to you. You will lose consciousness once you open it.
-
Why not? Couldn't hurt right? ...right?
-
[b]He gestures to the device.[/b]
