Last Time
"En Guard!"
Now
"What, P what are you doing?"
"I'm proving that I can beat you so en guard redcoat!"
"Fine, to arms then."
Zac sighed and pulled out his sword. It had been given back to him when he was released from the brig. He pointed the blade at P and waited for her to make the first move. I smiled and waited myself, I had made the mistake of crossing first last time and knew more than likely it would happen again if I were to advance first.
Zac lunged forward and the swordplay began. I heard hoots from the crew and drew strength from it. I could not let my crew down I would not fail this time not matter how well Zac fought. I sidestepped a blow and reflected another.
His footwork was amazing and matched my own so I decided to make it more interesting. My feet began to take on the moves to a waltz. Zac frowned but followed. Even dancing the man could fight. I took the chance while he danced to swing my left leg in a low spin. Zac caught himself at the last moment and steadied himself while evading my attacks. His recovery was perfect so I knew it was time to pull out all the stops. I mixed form with footwork and he followed my lead.
I leapt backward and he advanced I danced along the deck and cart wheeled off his right shoulder and did a back flip so that I was against the railing. Zac lunged and attacked in full force. I deflected so many mortal blows that I was amazed he had not run me through. I swung myself onto the railing and ran along it. Zac was on my heels the whole time. I reached the rope ladders up the masts and began to climb while still turning back to swing at my opponent. He came up next to me and we began a new battle.
Now not only were we fighting each other but to keep balance as well. I had hoped he would be a weak balancer but found out quickly that he kept his balance almost as well as I did. I swung with all my might and he leaned too much to his right. His body swung over the side of the rope and he dangle for a moment before dropping to the deck. I was on him the whole time and when he landed I was on top of him within a moment. I placed my sword against his neck tipping his chin up.
"Do you yield?"
"If I don't?"
"I have the pleasure of running you through."
"You wouldn't your father would kill you if you did. You forget I'm a family friend."
"No friend of mine."
I smiled then rose. I had no idea what provoked me to give up so easily but I did. I offered my hand and he grabbed it and heaved himself up.
"You might fight better than I first thought. You fought well and in a skirt no less."
"Yes well don't you forget it."
"I don't think I will."
I left him there on the deck and I heard him whisper behind me.
"I don't think I could forget you either P."
