Sweet Escape

Cancellation

"I'll agree to that If you win." He smirked and waited for me to choose a weapon.

Forget the sword. I took 3 emergency knives, and secretly slid a few blades inside my pocket and turned to the Captain.
"Shall we begin?" He asked.

We placed ourselves around the circle.

"Rules: there should be blood." He announced.

After flexing out our weapons, I felt the quick rush of adrenaline again. Since it was clear that we were the only people in the room, I undisguised myself.
The Captain stared at me as I finish my form.
After a few seconds of silence, the Captain spoke again.
"Ready?" As he positions his sword.
I nodded.

This is going to be fun.

I held two knives with my hands and studied him.
We were walking around the circle when he suddenly charged at me, sword aimed at my stomach.

Perfect.

I ran towards him with lightning speed, when I was a few feet from his sword, I jumped and lightly stepped on his sword and jumped over him with ease. I quickly aimed the small thin cutter blade I slid a while ago to his neck before I threw it. He didn't even noticed the blade flew through his neck and fell to the ground.

The blade went through him.
Blood.

Blood on his neck.

I win.
But he obviously didn't notice the blood on his neck.

He ran towards me again and I threw the knife towards his sword.

Kling!

Both blades collided and left the Captain unarmed.
"What??" He stared at his sword.
I walked towards him and pointed at his neck.
He looked at me and touched his neck.
"Blood?" He didn't believe me.

"You didn't even come near me?!" He was surprised about what happened.
He looked at me.
I dropped my knives and waved goodbye as I went straight for the door.

I was happy.
Happy that I've beaten the Captain of the Guards.
Happy that I got a few blades.

And Happy that training was over.
