The real wrong side of the bed.

Ren chuckled. He could see the change in her. She was mad. "Don't worry. I treat all my opponents the same way." he said quietly, pulling his staff back to his side. "But..." he trailed off, pulling his staff up, he aimed for her shoulder directly with speed, not giving her a chance to block, when it connected, (sword or body, you're choice.) he moved it down to her side, then down to her shin, before moving back into a deffensive stance. He grinned slightly. He was having fun.

"Yeah that's what you say, but truly are you sure?"... She heard the but, "But what?" He then moved his staff fast aiming for her shoulder, her two swords moved into action as she dodged backwards moving her swords in her stead. One sword cracked slightly at the impact, she had just had a fight with someone earlier that day which wore her swords down, one more hit and the cracked sword would break and she'd be down a sword.

She didn't tell him she knew martial arts or at least that's what she thought. She never had perfect memory in conversations. She decided she'd have to replace more of her swords with kicks and arms motions instead of only swordsmanship since she'd be down a sword soon. When he moved the staff towards her side and shin, she eyed him moving her good sword she tried to catch the staff and would use her cracked sword to hold it in place and possibly she'd be able to steal his weapon.

She did catch his staff, but instead of trying to lighten the pressure on his staff, he pushed against her sword, creating more pressure, and pulled back. Now, had the staff been normal wood, it would have caught into her sword, and the result would have been either very deep gouges, or tearing her sword from her hands. Neither happened. The staff slid from her swords grasp with a very melodious shing, and he once again moved with dexterity, aiming for her arm. As he did so, he pondered what she would do with someone like him and his abilities if they didn't fight fair. He could easily remove her swords from her hand by way of teleportation, and any wit would teleport them to a place she couldn't retrieve them. But he didn't say as much.

After his staff made contact (sword or arm.), he jumped back so that she would have to move forward to make any contact, he remarked easily while apparently inspecting his staff. "It's amazing really.." he glanced up at her from under his eyebrows, he ran a hand along the still completely smoothe surface, no evidence of the heavy collisions it had been having with her swords, still completely opaque black.

She smirked doing something unexpected, she dropped both swords grabbing fast to his staff she quickly jumped into the air putting her weight on it holding fast doing a handstand. Whether he let go of the staff or something else she wasn't afraid to land against the hard ground she made a quickly motion to kick towards his head. Her swords a good five feet away, she wasn't just a swordsman. But with a move as open as his staff she needed new swords in order to fight evenly. But she didn't have any on her so she decided to unarm him as well.

That way it would be even since her swords would smash and then she'd be going against him, his power, and his weapon with only her martial arts which wasn't as good as her sword skill. She still was developing things to fill in the gap. She knew she had forgotten to do something today. Grr... Why her swords? "Not really, I fight too much... My swords are cheap because I can't afford a true sword I must admit your staff is very good quality unlike my swords." She said to him as she was in the air.

Ren grinned, letting go of his staff. His grin was more of a half smirk as he watched her in the air, ducking her kick to his head. Apparently, it'd never occured to her that if she disarmed him, he could easily teleport it back to him, but he didn't.

He dipped his head with her comment. "A gift from my Grandfather, his war days." he took a defensive stance without his staff, prepared to teleport her sword to him if she decided to use his staff against him.

She managed to land holding his staff she looked at it's craftmanship quickly. "Very nice, if it was a sword I'd be tempted to steal it. But since it's a staff it's not my most favorite weapon, but a good weapon none the less." She tossed it next to her swords. She knew he could get it back but she doubted he would try and if so well she possibly might be able to take advantage of him paying attention to his staff.

She wished she had excalibur a amazing sword well known as King Auther's Sword. She always believed it was actually King Authurin meaning King Authur was a woman in diguise because her country didn't allow queens. Or even a cursed blade or something, her blades were always breaking and cursed blades were known not to break because they were cursed with bad luck.

He looked at her the whole time, as the staff disappeared and reappeared on the ground, with no thud at all. He shrugged with a boyish grin. "Respect thing." he explained with a bit of a shrug, adjusting his goggled with one hand. His eyes never left her, and even though he was completely relaxed, his mind was on high alert, prepared for anything she was going to throw at him.

She smiled, "I see, well I'm sorry about that... I believe one should never use another's weapon against them. So if you wish to use your weapon go ahead, I just wanted to separate you from it for a second." She said the last part with a light smirk. She readied a plan of action, then decided on one. She did it fast and unexpected she sent a quick kick towards his stomach, she didn't do too too hard because she didn't want to seriously injure him or accidently break a rib or something. She then sent a quick uppercut just seconds after, she didn't know if he'd chicken out and teleport or stay. She wished her swords were in best shape, but knew if she fought it out with staff and sword her one already chipped sword would shatter and the other one by the end of the match would need to be repaired.

She would first see his physical skill and reactions before testing his staff skills again. She had reason to believe he wasn't the type that would be done in a few seconds.

He dodged the kick with as much speed as she threw it, and brought up his hand to catch her fist, spinning her around so that her arm was bent, before letting her go. His eyes twinkled. He wasn't afraid of fighting, but he didn't attack. Ever. It was a good policy in his line of work. He dropped to the ground and slid his foot along it in a move to knock her feet out from under her. "You know, I really wonder what you'd do with someone of my talents..." he paused as he returned to his feet, "who didn't fight fair." it was an honest question, and he was expecting an honest answer.

She smirked his move surprised her, so he was good. She liked him, he was a good fighter just one who did things in a round about way. She had a idea of the sweep at her feet and jumped up quickly in the air as high and fast as possible, she just missed his kick in time.

"You know, I really wonder what you'd do with someone of my talents... who didn't fight fair."

She smirked, "Raised by pirates... It's not that hard to fight unfair, it's just I rather fight fair unless fighting a unbeatably unfair fight." She said landing near her swords with some extra effort. She picked them both up shelthing them, she picked up his staff. And gave a "You want me to toss them or respect teleport?" look, she didn't want to treat his weapon with disrepect if it was important to him.

"Shall we begin for real now?" She said with a light smirk, she knew his skill was high but she also knew his style a bit more now.
