ORDER OF SWORDWOMEN

"That's what you always say."

Leia swung her spear.

"Blossom, my flowers."

As she did, the tip of the spear unleashed a series of thrusts at Regina. They were a storm of piercing strikes, like petals dancing in the wind.

"What?!"

However, the spear found nothing but empty air. Regina had dodged the attack. She then moved with a speed Leia's eyes couldn't keep up with and closed the distance between them.

"You're too slow!"

She struck Leia's legs.

"Ugh, you're such a bully."

"And you're just weak!"

Regina's sword cleaved the ground where Leia had been standing a moment earlier. The arena floor split and the debris beneath their feet billowed, turning into a raging pillar of stone that pierced the air.

"Now, this is how you use your power!"

"Hmph, not bad."

Leia kicked off and leaped back to put some distance between herself and Regina. She landed nimbly and then held her spear at the ready.

"Blossom, my flowers..."

"Not this again!"
