Ayana-
The coach called the next competitor to come face me. It was Sarah. I could tell she was nervous by the way she walked. But she was ready nonetheless, to bad she was going to lose.
She took her stance in front of me, her sword up. I did the same and smirked. She saw and almost faltered, she shook her head and fixed her stance again. The coach blew the whistle to begin. Sarah took the first swing against me, which made a loud clang in the gym. I blocked her perfectly, and made a move of my own which made her take a step back with the effort.
I smiled, I pulled my sword back swung in front of her stomach. She jumped back surprised, I almost laughed. But I stopped myself, that could cause me to lose points. I swing again and this time she blocked.
I pulled back and spun around, not realizing she did the same thing. So when I stopped spinning and my sword landed at her neck, her sword was also at my neck. Smart. She huffed in frustration. We both drew away, this time Sarah swung at me. Hard. I lost my balance a little and took a step back. I saw her smile at that. Oh no. Her smile was not going to last long. I swing back at her harder then before. She blocked me, but the effort almost made her fall.
I pulled away and swung again faster, she couldn't block me and I made a slash in her training outfit. I heard a soft gasp from her. She was distracted. Good. I made another swing and knocked the her sword out her hand. Oops. That was points off for her.
Sarah was looking at me shocked. I pointed my sword at her neck and used it to back her against the gym wall. She put her hands up in surrender. It was a few minutes when the coach finally called defeat.
I dropped my sword down as I heard cheers from the other girls in my class. I looked at Sarah, her face was bright red. She was mad as usual. I didn't care, I won. Her threats meant nothing to me. As usual.
I put my sword in my training belt, and turned toward the bleachers where my gym bag was. As I sat down I could hear the coach announcing something. She was saying the winner of the girls would face the winner of the boys tomorrow to do their final test. Great now I had to fight a guy I didn't know.
The bell interrupted my thoughts, school was over. Time to go home.
