Fight Between Garth (Skarzs) and Arya (Corn)

[Cornflower MM]

Atrya side-stepped, and slashed downwards. "True enough." She said, then flicked her sword sideways at his back.

[The Skarzs]

Garthhick felt a stinging pain in his back, and felt something warm and sticky running down his back. Blood. He backed up, still sixing up the situation. Her sword caused problems, as she could hurt him from farther away. If he got in close, he might have a better chance. Coming closer cautiously, he jabbed quickly with his axe.

[Cornflower MM]

Arya gasped as the axe thudded into her thigh, and she threw her dagger. That probably wasn't the best thing to do under the circumstances, but she was good with her sword, which was currently moving to slice HIS thigh.

[The Skarzs]

Garth had to slow down as soon as Arya's sword bit deep into his leg. He stumbled and fell, quickly getting back up again. Cheers, jeers, and cries for blood were heard from the seats around the ring.

[Cornflower MM]

OOC: What about the dagger? She threw it at him.

BIC: Arya, like she was taught, waited for Garth to get up on his feet. Just then, a really vulgar suggestion came from a rat who was sitting above her. She gave a shriek of rage, and propelled herself up the wall, swung her sword, and lopped off his paw and ear, then jumped back down, turning back to Garth.

[The Skarzs]

Garth rubbed his shoulder. He had not realized the other squirrel's dagger had just shaved by him. Watching Arya punish the vulgar rat, he smiled grimly. "It is sad; I would like to have known you better. But. . ." he raised held his axe firmly "We must continue." He walked sideways, searching for the right moment to attack.

[Cornflower MM]

"What if we escape?" Arya said, lowly, so the rats above couldn't hear. She acted like she was still fighting, but when she slashed, she made sure it missed him.

[The Skarzs]

"Not unless they open up one of the gates," he still blocked the swing, not sure how much the squirrel was still willing to fight. "We're pretty well trapped."

[Cornflower MM]

"Not if we climb." She said, feinting, but making sure she still missed her opponent.

[The Skarzs]

"Haven't you seen? There's guards every fifteen feet."
He hopped back, his mind racing. He ran and vaulted over Arya with his axe, trying to climb up the wall. A guard quickly whacked him down with his spear, Garth fell heavily.

[Cornflower MM]

"That guy stole my bow, and arrows. If I can get that back, we're set." Arya said, motioning towards one of the guards. "Shall we try it?"

[The Skarzs]

Garth hesitated, then pounced upon Arya.

[Cornflower MM]

Arya gasped, then swung a punch. She'd thrown her dagger, and her sword was too long for close combat.

[The Skarzs]

The punch caught Garth in the shoulder, but it was hardly enough to stop his momentum from taking them both to the ground, Garth on top. Hopping up quickly, he held his axe directly over her head, fighting within himself as to whether he should do it, or not.

[Cornflower MM]

Arya closed her yes, and sighed. "Alright. Do it." She said slowly and quietly, resigning herself to the idea of death as she waited for the blow to fall.
