Ch 13 Sword Frighting Part 1: Defense
"He is going to die." Kristen said
"You don't know that." T.K. said.
"Uhm, has Davis here ever battled with a sword, most likely hold one?" Kristen said.
"He's going to die." T.K. agreed.
"Ok," Wilmer began "You must learn the basics.But befor that we must-"
"Uhm, excuse me, but if we fight with real swords won't we hurt ourselves?" Davis interrupted.
"I was getting there. The chosen one is supposed to know magic, but I don't think you do so here is how to blunt you sword. You must simply say temerarius. Once you say that I'll tell you what's next" Wilmer said.
"But I've never done magic in my life, and only special people get the ability to do it." Davis replied.
"But your the chosen one which is some one special." Wilmer said "Now go on."
"Ok." Davis said taking a deep breath "Temerarius."
Suddenly there was a sort of fire between his fingers with was blue just like his dragon's fire, but it didn't hurt him.
"Good." Wilmer said. "Now put the tow fingers which have the flames apart and take your sword and rub it with the fire."
Davis did this and thenrubbedthe blade against his hand and it didn't leave a mark.
"So, are we ready to duel?" Wilmer asked.
"Yup." Davis replied.
"Ok, here are the basics.Wherever I step you step the opposite way. So, if I step here (left) you step... (Davis stepped to the right) good." Wilmer said. "Now if I strike with my sword down towards your head you bring it up and block it."
The next couple of hours Davis spent time learning the basics with Wilmer. Up, down, left, right. Davis now knew how to block for all and also learned a couple combo strikes.
"Good lets have a defence test, which means I strike and you block." Wilmer said.
First he striked fast and hard at the top and Davis barley managed to get his sword up in time. Davis barley managed to pass the defence test , but he did.
"Good. We will work on attack tomorrow." Wilmer said.
"Cool, ok." Davis replied.
Davis headed back to the gang.
"You actually surbived the first day, congats!" Kristen said.
"Very funny." Davis said.
"C'mon give Davis a break and lets all go to sleep." Kari said.
"Thanks Kari." Davis said.
"No problem." she smiled.
