Dirge scowled at the small girl, yelping when she stomped on his foot, and kicked her more out of reaction than stratagem.
She was small, and he had to think these sort of fights through more carefully. Cover his bases, try to prevent mobility from her side. There would be small and quick shadows, too.

The kick had sent her flying back a lot farther than one would have expected.
The girl was still, very short and light after all.
Clutching her scrapped knee, Gzifa turned to glare at Dirge teary eyed and lip quivering. True warriors don't cry, however, getting up as she she bit down on her lip.
There was no need for games now, and she charged forward to meet the man head on, wooden sword swinging.
She managed to completely bowl Dirge over, sending him sprawling to the floor with a groan. This little thing was a tyrant, a hurricane.
He liked her.

They were both sent sprawling, Gzifa landing on top of Dirge in a pile on the floor.
The girl let out a low hiss, feeling slightly dizzy as she grabbed onto the man's clothes.
They were not done here yet.
There was a moment of eery foreboding as she pulled him upwards by the collar, leaned back, and went in for a headbutt.

Dire's head had never reeled so much before, and he felt enough vertigo to make him want to vomit. He didn't, but instead rolled over and got onto his feet, glaring at the little girl.
Lesson learned; never underestimate your fellow knight apprentices.
"s**t, s**t. I yield." He hissed, dropping the sword. Dirge glowered, looking the girl up and down. "Who are you?"

There was a whole lot of regret and tears in her eyes as she clutched her head, reeling from the pain. She'd make a mental note to avoid headbutting anyone from now on.
Gzifa couldn't find it in her to smile as she heard the other man yield. The victory felt hollow, and nothing had been accomplished in the grander scheme of things.
“Gz-zifa” she sputtered, returning the man's stare and still not bothering to get off him. “And you?”

"Dirge." The boy muttered, sitting up with a groan and looking Gzifa in the eye. He blinked a few times, realizing she was still very much on top of him.
"Care to get off me?"

There was a petulant squint in her eye as she obliged, leaping off the boy.
The wooden sword was cast aside and the girl crossed her arms, eyeing him without any restraint.
“So, where do you come from?”
She wondered why she'd asked a question she couldn't answer of herself, but maybe all the more reason to. She was beginning to wonder why she couldn't remember much of herself past her own name, and the reasons for such strong convictions to become a Knight.

"Not bad," a voice commented from behind Gzifa, "but I would have suggested more of a defensive stance, with full attention to battle. Sometimes, defense is the best offense."
Sir Percival always had a bad habit of showing up whenever, and possibly wherever. An old, scarred grizzled bear of a man, he was often seen training hopeful potentials, patient, encouraging and always unassuming. There was a rumour going on that Percival was possibly older than even the late Uther Pendragon, father of the Great King, though he moved with the agility of those half his age that nobody dared challenge him on why he still was considered one of the greatest knights, strategically and offensively.
The blue-clad knight reached over to pick up a practice shield, raising it defensively. "Now, try attacking me." As several other knights had curiously gathered around to watch, he nodded to them as well. "Let us make this interesting, try attacking me in succession."

Feel free to roll your attack dice against Percival to see how much damage you do to his shield!

The voice from behind startled her and she leapt forward, turning to face who it was that spoke.
The bear like visage of the man standing before her was far more intimidating than her sparring partner had been, and the realisation of his status as one of the Great Knights had set her trembling.
She could not refuse, however. The girl nodded and gingerly picked up the wooden sword from the ground, poising for attack.
There were no visible openings, and Percival seemed to make the practice shield appear much larger than it actually was.
A dash towards him ended in a skid, and she stopped in her tracks, unsure of how to continue.

More grumbling from the boy as he crossed his own arms in response, returning the accusing squint.
He was about to open his mouth in some smarmy reply, but halted as soon as Sir Percival appeared. The boy shut his mouth and quickly backed away, bowing his head respectfully to the Great Knight.
He had to smirk, though, once he'd gotten a few step away. This Gzifa was going to be in for a rough time.

The girl took a few steps back, head bowed and flushed in embarrassment. This – running away wasn't what she had set out to do here.
From the corner of her eye, she caught Dirge backing off and casting a smirk in her direction.
Ah. She was beginning to feel a small rage being reignited in her. She wasn't going to end it like this, not in front of him.
There was a renewed vigor in her movements as she charged towards the Great Knight, feet peforming a feint to the right before ducking and spinning into a sharp left. Aiming for the back of the shield, she swung at the figure, hoping this was a more decent display of her worth as a warrior.

Battling sounded like an amazing idea. Piper swung the polearm over her shoulder, whistling merrily as she made her way to the courtyard. And the sight wasn't disappointing--someone was challenging one of the great knights!
"What'd she do to piss him off?" she asked with a little smirk, creeping up to the bulky boy watching. "S'it just starting?" And then, louder for the combatants, "TRY A LITTLE HARDER, LADY! Or ol' grizzled chops'll knock you down!"

"Her stance was too weak, I guess." Dirge remarked to the girl who'd just come in, noting how poofy her hair was. "Glad I'm not in her shoes."
