RETROSPECTION- Rianna vs. Myraline

Rianna goes in for the good old Cut and Roll. You drop low and your lightsaber burns through a layer of Myraline's Jedi robes as you roll past, to her flank. Though you fail to hit anything vital, it at least makes her step back and turn about to guard behind herself.

Score:

Rianna- 5, Myraline- 5.

Myraline to attack, Rianna to defend.

Intending to regain the ground she has given, Myraline charges forwards with a vertical swipe for your throat, trying to push you back and keep you back.

Rianna takes a few small, quick steps backwards, bringing her saber up at a diagonal angle, to try and catch Myraline's attack on it so that her blade simply slides out of the way.

Again Myraline commits to a blow that does not connect properly, simply sliding off of your lightsaber with a crackle, and she is forced to recover her footing whilst you are ready to retaliate.

Score:

Rianna- 6, Myraline- 5. Match point.

Rianna to attack, Myraline to defend.

Rianna retaliates by taking a single step forward, making a simple jab towards Myraline's chest.

Myraline swings hard to one side and knocks your thrust off target, instead going over her shoulder. She takes advantage of having you off-balance and strikes you in the solar plexus with an open palm, using the Force to send you flying backwards onto the banquet table.

Score:

Rianna- 6, Myraline- 6.

Myraline to attack, Rianna to defend.

Hoping to reach an end to this conflict, Myraline dashes forwards and leaps towards you through the air a la Palpatine and brings her lightsaber racing towards your prone figure...

Rianna brings up her lightsaber and holds it horizontally in front of her, trying to catch Myraline's blade with hers and will push hard to try and keep her away, getting up off the table as she pushes.

When Myraline lands, her agile attack smashes directly into your lightsaber. The impact almost pushes your lightsaber back on yourself but you just manage to hold it steady. Myraline, standing astride you, keeps you pinned beneath her lightsaber as she presses down hard on yours...

Score:

Rianna- 6, Myraline- 7. Match point.

Rianna to attack, Myraline to defend.

Rianna holds her lightsaber in place for a moment, before pushing Myraline back a bit and aiming a jab at her.

Rianna tries to contest her Master's strength, and does well despite being in the worst position to do so. She pushes back with all her might, trying to twist Myraline's blade out of position so that she might be able to retaliate... slowly but surely, crackling and sparking just before her face, Rianna manages to push back and leave Myraline open.

Unfortunately, Myraline realizes this and decides to give it up so that she can respond to your next strike. When the jab shoots upwards at her, she steps back and swings with all her might. The force of the blow knocks the lightsaber from Rianna's hand! Defenseless, Rianna tries to roll clear but is too late.

Myraline's lightsaber is driven directly into Rianna's left shoulder and through the banquet table, pinning the Padawan there.

Score:

Rianna- 6, Myraline- 8.

Match to Myraline.

We can now return to the thread...
