(((when listening to it wait about a minute into the song)))
The rain trickled lightly on Leana's armour as her sword stood solid in the sand before her. Around her were warriors from Cear circling around her like a pack of wolfs around there pray. Leana sat there concentrating with her eye's shut listening on there every move they make, every other sound was cancelled out by the shifting of the sand around her. Silently she waited for someone to make the first move ready for any attack to come her way. A few seconds passed where the rain just pinged off her metal plates before the first move was made.
Keeping her eyes closed she took hold of her blade pulling it out of the ground and placing it in a defensive way over her shoulder. The sword of the gladiator came down and clashed along with her own blade, metals collided together as Leana quickly pushed upwards to send her enemy's blade away from her. Just as she placed a foot in front of her to get up another gladiator came rushing towards her with a Greataxe up in the air. Still keeping her eyes closed she quickly dodged the attack by throwing herself to one side.
Just a second after she did another warrior came towards her attacking her with two swords as swing after swing was made. Not even attempting to deflect the attacks Leana just moved her body the dodge the attacks in total. Each swing made her take a step back but not one was even close at striking her and before long she performed a back flip to gain the distance between them. Still keeping her eyes closed and just there hearing each move she was ready for the next attack. Waiting for them to make one more move before going onto the attack.
By this point the rain had slightly picked up and a bit more than just a trickle fell from the sky's. The last attacker approached her with his weapon drawn but yet it didn't make a noise and only the shifting of the sand gave the man away. Then just like a thunder strike the sound of the wind braking, splitting almost filled her ears giving her the instinct to move to the side quickly. Leana narrowly dodged the attack but the weapon soon changed its course as it came from the ground upwards towards her.
Only by a rain drop she moved to try to dodge it again but was unlucky enough to get caught in the attack. Sharp metal cut the skin like a knife through butter over her face and across her eye making her move very quickly backwards. Holding a hand to her face but feeling that her eye is ok she opened her left eye. Her right eye covered the her own blood she noticed the weapon and for that second she froze. No anger or anything towards the attacker for landing the hit but shock and slight fear on the weapon.
The scythe dripped slightly of her own blood onto the brown dark sand underneath them as the solid silver blade shined in the rain. Shaking her head and concentrating on fight again she took a breath of air in to steady herself. Almost in a meditating state of mind as soon everything around her went almost quiet. The sound of people yelling out soon became nothing as the rain drops stopped echoing through her ears. Then just a single drop landed on her shoulder armour the sound pinged through her ears.
Now was the time to go onto the attack as Leana targeted which one would be the first. Picking her target she ran towards them with her blade in her right hand ready to block the first attack. As expected the Greatsword user swung the giant sword towards Leana's side but this was dodged as she dropped to the floor, sliding along the sound she sliced at the man's leg before getting up to finish the job. Just as the blade landed inside his neck everything felt like time just slowed for that second but she moved onto the next being.
Yanking the blade clean out of his neck and turning around she could see the Giantaxe coming down upon her and just like before she dashed to the side. Having dodged the huge weapon and knowing that there is a little bit of time before they could strike again she took the advantage. The sword cut right through the beings hands before it was directed towards there throat. Again everything felt like time had just slowed down as the blood flowed out of his neck. All that was left were two more and the fight would be over.
The scythe user came towards her first but before any swings were made she tripped him up and went for the dual sword user. Her blade swung violently against his blade as the man desperately tried to block each attack. The sound of consent metal clashing with metal filled the air and the crowd went wild for the fight. Just as the scythe user looked to where the fighting was after getting himself back up to his feet the man that Leana was fighting laid in his own blood. Leana was looking down at him for a moment before turning to the scythe user. Last one standing.
Placing her blade towards him ready for him to attack first and expecting something usual the man smirked at her. A sudden move he made put Leana off her concentrating as he threw the scythe towards her. Seeing the blade moving towards her she quickly moved to the ground hoping to dodge the weapon to attack herself. Narrowly missing her she looked up just to see a man in the air with one of the swords from the fallen. Acting as quick as she can Leana lunged at him with her sword first but was soon put to the floor.
Each blow was dealt with crushing power behind them but his sword pieced through her upper right armour on her left arm. Gritting her teeth she pushed hers further into him until the hilt guard was touching him and the blade was through his back. The blow went straight through his heart and killing him in moments as Leana took a breath of air out of the pain. Shoving the body to one side and taking her sword back she quickly acting on the one in her arm. For her this was a way of training and soon she would be free from Muriels grip.
