Mia/Gladiator/Scar/Circle her warily
From Create Your Own Story
Sensing the tension of the fight, you avoid any rash movements and instead back off slowly keeping your weapons trained on her. The two of you circle eachother warily, looking for weaknesses. You can't really see any ovious holes in her defense and feel a little unsure on how to proceed, lacking experience in combat. She makes the first move and suddenly breaks the stalemate by charging towards you. You prepare to intercept, but are blinded by the sun shining right into your eyes. You immediately realize she was aiming for this and find yourself frozen like a deer in the headlights for just a moment. With a wide grin, she sends her falchion crashing down on you.
You barely manage to raise your blades in a feeble attempt to parry the blow, instead she breaks right trough your guard and you feel a stinging pain in your left shoulder as her blade shatters on of your scimitars and bites into your left shoulder deeply. You instinctively react by dropping to the floor and rolling away from your opponent. You see dark spots and the pain in your shoulder tugs at your conciousness but you steel yourself and rise again, turning towards your opponent who charges in on you assured of her victory and preparing to deliver the finishing blow.
In the face of defeat, you feel something snap inside of you like it did during your fight with Scar. The woman's movements suddenly become sluggish and clumsy and you no longer feel the pain. Easily sidestepping her slow charge, your remaining scimitar flashes and the woman's face distorts in total surprise as she feels the sharp edge of your blade rest on her throat. She swallows as she looks at you, seemingly frightened by what she sees. You dimly hear commotion among the bystanders but everything seems somehow blurred.
A few moments later, a large hand grabs your shoulder and turns you around. You suddenly find yourself face to face with Scar. The tension falls off you like a brick and you lose strength in your entire body, your eyes fluttering closed for a moment. Scar smiles at you and holds you by the shoulders. You feel lightheaded, as if you're floating in water. You somehow know you're on the brink of losing consciousness.
You :
Surrendering yourself to the pain and exhaustion, you faint into his arms
Grab onto him and collect yourself
Jump into his arms and embrace him
