[Well, it seemed that the hotel wanted her to go back in time for a bit. She was wearing her pirate uniform from back when she and England were doing their best to take over the seven seas.
She roamed the halls, cutlass in one hand, rosary in the other. She was in search of some booty and she was going to be a bit picky. That's when she spotted Antonio.]
Antonio!
[She called out as she pointed her cutlass at him.]
I was waiting for someone to pick that one XDdiosorogloriaSeptember 7 2011, 09:54:50 UTC
[Spain sees her clothes and then her weapon and he smirks. Him? Taken prisoner?]
Lovely as you are, Carmen, I'm not going to let you take me quite so easily.
[His hand idly falls to the rapier at his hip. Yes, their weapons are mismatched and he probably falls at a disadvantage, but that's never clear until a winner is decided]
It seemed appropriate for them.rosade_espanaSeptember 7 2011, 14:03:18 UTC
Then we shall see who can best who. If I can best you, you are my prisoner, but if you can best me then I shall be yours, Si?
[She stood with her cutlass ready. She hoped that he would take her up on her offer. She wasn't going to make it an easy fight, but a part of her wanted him to win. He was one he'll of a kisser and she wondered just what else he could do.]
If you would like we can assume she lost or if you want to play out the fight we can do that.rosade_espanaSeptember 7 2011, 14:23:45 UTC
[She listens to his rapier and gives a small sigh. She loved the sound of her native steel. Still, this was going to be a fight for prisoners. She would not make it easy for him. She moved in quickly going for a vertical slash with her cutlass.]
I actually would like to play out the fight. I've always wanted to have Spain in a swordfightdiosorogloriaSeptember 7 2011, 14:31:40 UTC
[He goes into defensive, blocking her attack smoothly and moving to push back her cutlass. His rapier's blade may be thinner, but he compensates with his own strength to make sure that his blade isn't cut into two and that he is able to deflect and push her back at the same time]
No problem!rosade_espanaSeptember 7 2011, 14:38:46 UTC
[She laughed a little bit as she was pushed back. He was strong and she liked that. She was also strong, after all, she was also the nation of Spain. She didn't back down and continued to slash at him. It wasn't the best of ideas, but if he wasn't going to attack, then she would.]
[He smiles at her laugh, liking the rich, joyous sound of it. She continues to attack and for a while he remains on the defensive, blocking and parrying her blows. It's not long, though, when he sees an opening and he wastes no time in thrusting forward, aiming for her stomach]
[She jumped back, swinging her cutlass down to deflect his rapier. The last thing she wanted was to have a belly wound. So it looked like he would be taking the offensive now. That was fine with her. He was a superb fighter and she was really enjoying this. She stood with her cutlass in a defensive stance and waited for his next move.
[Of course, they are practically matched, both with great experience in fighting due to the many battles they have been in. But well, something is at stake here. While he really won't mind being Carmen's captive, he'd rather not be anyone's prisoner at all. And so he takes his turn to attack, moving swiftly forward in a series of quick thrusts]
[With each of his thrusts, she kept moving backward, deflecting what blows she could and dodging others. That was, until her back hit a wall. She had to move. Havin her back against a wall would make things even harder for her.
Without warning, she pushed herself away from the wall and aimed a thrust for his gut this time.]
[Thankfully, he has fast reflexes as well and he jumps back out of the way, angling his sword downward to quickly parry her blade. There is considerable strength behind that parry as he aims to make her let go of her sword, disarming her]
[And she was disarmed, her blade skittering down the hall. She took a step back, keeping her eyes on his blade. She wasn't going to take her eyes off of it until it was put away. She could still fight, but she would have to get in close and use her fists. She didn't want to do that while he was still armed. she swore softly under her breath as she waited on his next move.]
[She watches his sword warily and it makes him smile. He's proud to note that she doesn't let her guard down, not even for a second. Her sword is a good distance away. She can attempt to run for it but then can she do it so stealthily when he has his blade aimed at her lovely throat?]
[As much as she hates surrendering, she had little choice in the matter. She sighed, holding up her hands, one idly fingering the beads of a rather elaborate rosary.]
And I have to go~ I'll tag back later!diosorogloriaSeptember 7 2011, 15:33:34 UTC
[She gives her a bit of an amused smile as he comes closer, keeping the blade when he's close enough. He slides one arm around her, gently pulling her closer, while his free hand takes hers. He lifts the hand with the rosary to his lips and kisses over it, his lips brushing over the beads lightly]
She roamed the halls, cutlass in one hand, rosary in the other. She was in search of some booty and she was going to be a bit picky. That's when she spotted Antonio.]
Antonio!
[She called out as she pointed her cutlass at him.]
I am taking you as my prisoner!

[And with that he draws his sword, excellent Toledo steel singing and glinting in the silent hallway. He waits for her to make the first move]
