Fencing Club - The Salle, Afternoon After Classes

[once-a-traitor.livejournal.com]

Despite the week of interruption, come Monday afternoon everything was set up as it always was for Fencing Club.

"A light session today," Edmund told the group. "Pair up and let's see if you remember everything despite the week off."

That only got the editorial comment of "Ow!" as it connected, and no other protest, because yeah, fair was fair. That was going to bruise. Dinah jumped back, wincing, then brought her sword down and across, aiming for Emma's arm and hoping to knock her blade out of her hands from sheer reach and height, even if the speed wasn't there.

Emma went for a parry that would have gotten her wrists smacked for recklessness back at her old school, contorting her arm and torso to bring the blade around into septime haute after Dinah's first hit, defending her arm and shoulder from any more attacks until she could stagger to her feet.

Still, the foil was still in her hand, and she was up again, waiting for an opening.

"Nuts," was Dinah's breathless comment, because Emma was good, and it was impossible to tell if that was the telepathy, but she suspected not. Also, still ow. Faster than her, okay. More practiced. Well. Go down swinging. Dinah gritted her teeth and went into one of the basic attacks, as fast as she could, hoping Emma would make a mistake.
