The more the foe dodged -her gigantic sword- the more annoyed she became. The boy when she swung the six feet sword round her like a tornado to almost chop off his head he dodged by a step backward, bent his back down but then she followed him as she twirled. The boy started to sweat as he ran backward, the warrior Elena slammed her boot into the ground and then chopped the air like axe and the gigantic sword, the sharp edge fell right near the top of his head and almost split it like an apple. The sword instead fell into the grass and split many blades of it. The boy giggled like a little girl, slid on his two feet and tripped her.
It must have taken the boy a lot to trip Elena as she was in a lot of heavy armour, helmet and the heavy six feet sword to boot. She fell forward, the boy fell on his back and rolled out from under her. The sword that was stuck in the ground held her up. She tried to knee the boy in his lower area but he jumped backward.
“You know armour can slow a person down. I have kicked at least ten times and I have noticed obviously it protects you but can you catch-?” The boy ceased to speak.
Elena grabbed the hilt of her long blade, easily pulled it out of the ground with one swing and aimed at the boy's feet. He leaped into the air and the bottoms of his shoes were cut off even though he jumped of the sword. When the boy fell down, the tip of the sword sliced open his ragged shirt and the clothe bandage revealed underneath and it even cut it that to reveal something she did not notice before. Her eyes widened at the sight. He was not a he at all in fact it was a she.
The she used the limp sword that Elena put onto the ground and her surprise to her advange. She leaped into the air, round kicked Elena's helmet and it fell off and rolled onto the ground. Long red hair down to her belly botton came out. The she, her foe, circled the dazed warrior and leaped upon her shoulders. She sat on them and instead of pound on Elena's head as she could have done she watched Elena look up at her.
“You are a she.” Elena said to the said she.
She had made an error. She did not make errors often. When she did that was bad. She made a fool of herself.
“And you're a he. Do you think I cannot kick your bottom just because you're a man? Why did you attack me and then stop to attack me? Perhaps you should make up your mind whether you want to try and kill me or not. I should emphasis the word try. Perhaps you do not want to die.” The she started to talk a lot while she sat on Elena's shoulder's Elena could carry the weight of a heavy blade, her armour and a female of normal size.
“You're a girl.” Elena said again and again to herself and the she. It did not seem to sink into her too deeply.
“Why is that so surprising? Girls cannot defend themselves?”
“I- you're not supposed to be-”
“What are you-?”
“You are not the target.”
“If you're an assassin you'd think you would want to blend in, wouldn't you? Assassins and ninjas are extremely good at stealth, to just stand there in a orange jumpsuit out in the open is not-” The she said to Elena. Elena back grabbed her by the armpits and put down on the ground.
“I- I appologize.' Elena said to her.
“Wait, wait so you appologize what does that have to do with anything?”
“I attacked you when I thought you were- however you are not.”
“Wait so this was not a fun sparring match?”
“If you bare me no grude I must go.”
“I am coming with you.”
“What?”
“I am coming with you.”
“Yes, but what do you-?”
“You're tall, really tall and you have a femimine voice.”
“No I don't.”
“It sounds pitchy like right now.”
'Shut-”
“I am coming along.” The she said to Elena.
Elena put the sword on the gigantic sheath on her back. The tip of the sheath dragged behind her as she walked and the she skipped along beside her. Her head a few inches shorter than herself. There something odd about this person of the same sex. She was supposed to hide her sex well in these times. Elena at least had some kind of reason too-
“I won't be able to protect you and you don't know where-” Elena said to the she.
The nameless girl's tone was chirper, jestful and perky. Elena's tone on the other hand was dull, calm and sometimes the rest of her facial expression.
“I have been trained to use my hands and fight as weapons.” She said to Elena to make converasation.
“The body is extremely weak and can be cut open.”
“By that gigantic thing? Yes but I can also dodge.”
“If you can dodge my great sword one hundred times you can come with me, wherever I be going.” Elena said to the she who for some reason did not give her name yet.
“Oh goody! I want to find out o many things about why your voice is so girly.”
“You be able to-”
“Alright hit me and let's see as you're already comfortable with hitting a hit.”
“I am comfortable with slicing anything up I am ordered too.”
“Now- now that's a creepy thought.”
"You're quit the slip of a thing. My sword would cut through your waist like butter."
"But, but you have not yet have you- Mister-What's-His-Name?" The she asked Elena. Elena was not stupid enough to reveal her true gender so easily.
"Elena."
"Ooh my name is Starry."
"Starry?"
"Anyway so I dodge the sword one hundred times? Easy."
"Without a cut."
"Not so easy. I think I can do it."
"One cut and we go our seperate ways."
"Oh well- well I won't be having that!"
Author's Note: Elena is more of a weapons and armours warrior while 'Starry' is more of a martial artist. These are both women though Starry thinks Elena is a guy. Just a story idea. Starry if I continue might grow into something weirder and if Elena seems to have a shady morality it might get shaddier or not. Elena does have a mission.
