drop the dagger and lather the blood on your hands romeo
Aisha did not at all expect this reaction to having a sword aimed at your side, but considering this was a spar and the sword was not a true adversary, maybe it was the right decision. Allowing herself to take the burning flat of a sword, a spot that would certainly earn a bruise, Siri other took that opportunity to move in and get at Aisha.
Aisha moved as quick as she could, but the move surprised her, and ultimately the pommel of the younger woman's knife met the soft skin below her ribs. In a real fight, Siri wouldn't have had the opportunity to make this move, she would've been bleeding at the seems. But in this moment, it was smart, she was cunning, and Aisha was impressed.
Though not much by the force of the hit, stinging as it was it lacked the brawn of a warrior. Aisha sucked in air fast at the impact, drawing away but feeling the burn and switching her dominant arm in response. The swordmaster eyed Siri with fire, excitement, then lunged in again. Her opponent had proven speed, so Aisha had to be smart. She made as though to swipe at the woman's stomach again, but at the last moment sweep her blade lower, aiming to trip.
