Snippet #1569235

Amira kept up her offensive, though her arms were growing tired with it. It had been a long time since she had faced someone who had put up this much of a fight. She couldn't seem to get Vesi to fall of balance or find a weak spot, but there had to be one. Everyone had one. Didn't they? Stepping back, she let off on the attacks, circling him for a second, eying him up and down, as though searching for a weak spot. But it only lasted a few seconds, before she was back on the attack, slashing and hitting with as much force as she could. Turning, she aimed another blow to his left leg and soon another one to his arm. She was quick, nimble and surprisingly so. However, as she delivered a blow aimed at Vesi's left shoulder, a pain shot through her temple, an agonising pain that caused her to stumble, dropping her sword. It looked as though Vesi had simply delivered a blow that had defeated her, causing her to loosen her grip on her sword. She whimpered slightly, but other than that made no sound. A frown befell her face, but she quickly smoothed it out, into a look of defeat.

"I yield," She whispered, stepped back away from Vesi again, her hand to her head. She muttered something to herself, rubbing at the temple. "Nicely played," She added, with a slight gasp. The pain had dulled, but it was still there. Amira had no idea what had caused it, but it worried her slightly. Instead, she allowed a smile to slip on her face and gestured for Ventum to join them. He was watching her carefully, as though fully aware of what had just happened to her. Spreading his wings, he took off from his perch and moments later landed on her shoulder. Instantly, he started to say something, but she hushed him. It wasn't wise to speak of it at that moment. Vesi didn't need to know what had happened. Hell, Amira herself didn't even know what had happened. Besides, it hadn't really affected their match. He had won fair and square after all.

"We should do this again. But for now, class." She said, stroking her deity, not looking up to meet Vesi's eyes. "You fight well. But this victory will be short-lived." Some of her previous cheek returned to her voice, as she relaxed slightly. The pain was barely there anymore. Besides, it was probably just the forming of a headache, nothing more.
