Sir Leon of Ronstin

Sir Leon was another big warrior, standing easily about the same size as my last opponent, probably 6 foot 2 inches. He wielded once again a very big long sword. You couldn't help but smile because my dexterity and movement was above most others so fighting all these big hulks of people were much easier since as long as you dodged their attacks and went on the offensive well, you could win.

"The fight begins in..." the announcer starts...

"3!"

"2!"

"1!"

"FIGHT!" he screams

Sir Leon lunges toward me almost instantly which catches me off guard. His longsword pierces through my armor, slices my side. "Ughhhh!" I grunt. You would think such a big opponent would be much slower but he was pretty quick for how fast he was. After his lunge, he pulls his longsword back, taking two steps back before swinging with all his might into me. Luckily you dodge to the side as his blade pierces into the ground with a loud sound, a few rocks break off the ground, shooting into the air.

Jumping back, readying your short sword & dagger, you kneel down closer to the ground, keeping your eyes glued to his stance.

"Fight me back!" he yells "Pathetic warrior!"

He lunges toward me again as you quickly dodge to the right.

"The Church of Avlon will be victo..." he gets cuts off as you take a quick slice with my short sword which is easily blocked by him. "For Avlon!!!" he screams as he starts to bring his longsword back.

At that point, as his longsword is swinging backwards, you quickly take a swing of your shortsword and slash it into his face. Sir Leon loses his stance, falling back onto his back. "Ughhhhhhh!" he yelps as his armor hits the ground. A trail of blood quickly appears across his face. You attempt to jump on him ready to pierce your dagger into his shoulder blade. Unfortunately he rolls to his side, and keeps rolling, three or four times before he is free from me and stands up. "Nice try, kid" he smirks

Your eyes, aren't leaving his. Watching his movement is your best move. He slices to the left, dodge. He slices to the right, dodge. He lunges forward, jump right. He continues this for another 60 seconds, attacking left, right and center. "Attack me back god dammit!" you hear the exhaustion in his voice.

With that, you lunge forward with your short sword, he barely blocks it with his long sword but that keeps his left side open for your dagger, which you easily pierce into the slot of armor between under his arm. It pierces the armor perfectly, the blade of your dagger going directly into his right armpit, causing Sir Leon to scream in pain and drops his longsword.

You see the longsword hit the ground and immediately jump ontop of him, ripping him helmet off and giving him a quick punch with the hilt of your longsword dazing him. You then move the sword above his throat.

"DO IT!" he yells at you as the crowd continues to shout "Kill kill kill!"

You hesitate a moment before removing the blade from his throat and walk to the side of the arena toward Karisi. The crowd, a mix of boos and cheers. Sir Leon just stays on his back in the middle of the arena, letting out a giant sigh.

"You know..." Karisi groans "You're not like many other warriors with the mercy you show." She brings a towel up to your forehead, wiping the sweat and blood from your brow "It suites your character well." she smiles.

"Thank you Lady Karisi" you respond

"Last fight before we get into the Games." Karisi starts "But now we fight one of the final four from last year...this will be the toughest one yet. I hope you don't get paired against..." Karisi stops "Nevermind. You've got this!" her tone changes slightly
