Mia/Gladiator/Solo/Hold your ground

From Create Your Own Story

You decide to take your chances and hang in there at close range. Neither of you can put much strength into your swings since you have no time to make any large swings. You soon notice however, that your opponent isn't a novice at close-quarters fights with a spear. He makes quick strikes with both sides of his spear, too close to dodge you take a good number of hits. You can't fight back at all as you can't put any strength into your swings and are forced to back away. Taking this opportunity, the spear wielder dashes forward and you are caught flat-footed. Pain wracks trough you as the training spear tears into your flesh. These spears may have been designed to not cause large injuries easily and the fact that you were already moving backwards lessens the impact, but the force of the thrust still sinks the spear into your soft flesh. You are thrown backwards and cough up blood. You realize that you're done for if you hesitate even a moment and force yourself to roll back on your feet despite the pain.

You managed to avoid the spear-wielders finishing move, but you feel unsteady on your legs and black dots are starting to appear in your vision. You stumble a bit and your vision swims, but you manage to maintain a defensive distance and try to collect yourself.

The spear wielder senses your weakness and dashes in to finish things.

You :

Try to fend him off and collect yourself

Roll away from his charge and try to keep your distance

Throw yourself at him with the last of your strength and decide everything in one last blow
