Chapter 8: Pendragon, Sparing

Arthur and Kai were sparing with some Knights near the barracks. Faith had gotten bored, so she decided to take some shoot where the archer's practice, she was in a male's outfit, and her hair was up. Although that didn't stop the stares of people gazing at her unique features

After shooting some arrows, she began to hear claps from the crowd of knights in training that formed around her. The reason because Faith hit the center twenty times before breaking the target practice dummy.

She put down the bow and walked towards Kai who had just beaten his sparring partner

"Kai, spare with me," she said lightheartedly

"Ah! Okay" Kai said catching his breath and getting up.

Kai held his sword up nonchalantly, to him Faith was still just a girl. In other words, he had completely forgotten the training dummy she broke when they were younger.

Faith held her sword up to, giving everyone pause. She was holding it such a strange way that they thought she wasn't taken it seriously.

Arthur frowned.

"Fay, you can go first," Kai said

"Okay" Faith skipped towards him.

"Hey, take this seriously" the knights urged on.

Kai saw the devilish glint in Faith's eyes and shuttered, and he was starting to recall something. Faith was only a few feet in front of him when she stopped.

Clash

'To fast, To fast' he thought he was barely able to manage to block her fast attacks. Despite holding it strangely, she was way to fast that he could barely keep up. But the worse thing was her expression. That's when he knew she was going easy on.

Before long Kai was overwhelmed, but it seems Kai wasn't the only one overwhelmed as his sword snapped in half under the pressures.

We are marking the end of there spare.

Kai was on the ground as he looked at his sword; this sword was made by an acclaimed blacksmith and deemed to be nearly unbreakable. However, what screamed him the most was Faith's fixed expression, not once did it change from when she first started her reputation of fast attack. Until, the very end when he caught a glimpse of that deadly glint.

The knights in the back where stunned silenced as they couldn't make out what happened.

"Spare with me next" Arthur boldly walked up, snapping Kai out of his daze.

"Okay" Faith continued to smile

Arthur got himself ready as Kai moved to the back still stunned about his match.

"No holding back, come at me with everything you got!" Arthur said.

Faith looked at him 'rasining a death flag' she smiles as she changes her stance. Giving Arthur pause. Her last stance the sword was at her back but this one in her front. Her hand is holding the sheathed sword in the middle. 'Strange'

"Start!"

She disappeared. It only took a second for the match to be over. Faith's

now drawn sword was at Arthur's neck.

He paled 'To Fast' was all he thought.
