Practicing alone {OPEN}

I growled."You.The worst monster from all,the ugliest."I spat."Why don't you listen to your own advice,huh?Go back to your room and play with your Barbie dolls,I'm sure that's what you are planning"I teased him."Unless you came to fight,like a big boy.Oh wait,I forgot.You are scared you may destroy your hair with sweat and clothes with blood.Too bad red doesn't go with that outfit,isn't it?"I said,mockingly concerned

I grit my teeth together. She was going to die soon. "Listen here, you little b****. I am not afraid of anything a weakling like you could do." I pulled out my gladius. "You want a fight? Well you're going to get one." Ever since I met this girl I wanted to chop off her head, now I'll get my chance.

"Bring it on,buddy.Let me show you what a 'weakling' can do.I hope you don't mind if I sent you at the hospital for a while"I growled and gripped my shield close to me as I put my right leg a few inches back,preparing for battle

"The worse thing you could do to me would be accidently kicking dirt on my shoes." I laughed, though not a nice one. I spun my sword around my hand and started walking in a circle around her. "Like you could even touch me. You would lose that limb before you got close."

I didn't move,just stared at him intesly,the anticipation of the fight sharpening my senses.Finally..."Show-off.What,will you attack at all?Are you scared of a little girl?"I asked with a smirk

"As if," I sneered. With that I took a step forward and swung my sword at her head.

I raised my shield to cover my head and swung my sword at his legs,trying to hit me behind the knee

My sword ricocheted off her shield and I dove to the side to avoid losing my legs. "Not bad," I said from one knee, "But can you beat this?" I threw some dirt at her face and swung my sword at her thigh.

"Easily"I snorted as my shield covered my eyes while my sword met his and I pushed it away

I backed up twirling my sword in my hand, "You got lucky there. Now I might actually try." I stabbed my sword at her left side and followed with an vicious kick to her shield.

I laughed and jumped back,rolling on the ground to avoid the kick."That's all you got,pretty boy?"I laughed at him as I quickly got up

"We maybe could have a fight, if you would stop running away." I smiled at her. I started walking towards her.

"I'm not running,you miserable excuse of a warrior!"I shouted and started attacking him full force,slicing at his sides with incredible speed,one hit after the other

I laughed as she struck angrily. Rule one, always stay in control. You can't do that in anger. She has some speed but I am faster blocking her strikes one at a time. I throw a kick out at her legs while she is in the fury, pretty sure she will just be focused on killing me.

His kick surprised me and I fell but sliced at his stomach,hearin the soft sound of the sword ripping something,only wondering if it was the shirt or his flesh

I she fell, she swung at my stomach. I jumped back to have the blade go through my shirt and nick my stomach. I felt a small trickle of blood drip out.

"Well, you got lucky there,b****." I grinned while driving my sword down towards her.

I rolled on my back and brought my shield to my chest as I used my legs to jump up and turn around to face him."Not bad,not bad"

I brought my sword up and cut off the rest of my shirt. The loose strands would interfere with our fight. The air was cold but with the adrenaline I couldn't feel it. "You have some moves, I'll give you that; but you are no where close to my skill." I ran my left hand along the thin but long cut along my lower abdomen. "You got lucky here, but that is all you'll get on me." With a roar I went into a vicious but controlled attack, quickly striking one spot then moving on to another.

I smiled and panted as we stopped for a minute."I recognise you are quite a good fighter too.But the fight is not over yet,so don't get your hopes up"I told him and raised my shield as he started attacking me again.I attacked at his arms,rolling around,jumping and bending to dodge his attack,only getting a small cut on my leg.

I did some pretty flexible stuff to try and dodge my attack, but I managed to cut her on one of the strikes. I pulled away satisfied. I could see the reflection of light off the blood on my sword.

"Do you really want to keep this up until you are dead, my darling? I could go all night, but I am sure you will not last that long." I said to her, giving her my best evil smile.

"I could last twice as long and still have the energy to cut you to pieces.But,it's whatever ypu want"I said and grinned.

"We both know that is bulls**t," I said starting to smile, "How old are you anyways? 9? 10?"

"14 to 15.Surprising,isn't it?Believe me,you don't want to test my stamina"I teased him and laughed."Ah,the feeling after a good fight"

"Believe me, mine is better. I grew up on a military base, so I've actually been training my whole life." I said sitting to the ground. "You know what? I don't even think I know your name. Again, I am James Hunter, son of Victoria."

I impaled my sword on the ground and placed my shield next to it before I sat down."My name is Annabel and I'm a daughter of Bellona.Your life must have been nice.Training from a child....I wish I had that"I mumbled and grabbed my backpack from a tree branch,getting some bandage and iodine from inside."I have nectar too if you prefer that"I said,pointing for a minute at his wound before pouring some iodine in mine and quickly wrapping the bandages around it
