AISHA
first you're my predator then you're my prey
Aisha's sidestep had saved her a blow, each clash between them matched and met. But one of them had to win, eventually one of them would falter. This would not be her match it seemed. Perhaps it was the gathering spectators that drew her gaze for a second, maybe the promise of attention made her overzealous. The clash of his sword against hers, her grip was too firm, too confident, too eager. She realized almost too late that if she didn't slacken her wrists it would cause more damage than not, and in an instant she let go, her sword falling free of her grasp.
"Fuck," she snarled, shaking out her wrist from the reverb that rattled her bones. Her eyes darted from Deimos to her blade as it hit the ground, metal skittering against stone. For a moment there was a wild edge to her gaze, that animal instinct and anger, her innate desire to win pulling the leopard to it's feet. But it was snuffed with a smile moments later, laughter that stroked it's spine and sent it back to slumber.
"I don't remember you being that strong," she said, scooping her sword back up and shifting it around in her grip. She wasn't done of course, just needed a reset, clear her mind of instinct and return to calculations. She moved into a defensive stance, and shot him a playful jump of her eyebrows, "Again."
