Saphen walked through the entrance and into the arena once more. The tournament was getting more advanced as he continued through it and though he regreted the outcome of some battles he had to put them out of their mind. Tournaments to his realization were not always fair and circumstances and luck were also a factor that he needed to keep in mind. The hat he wore on his head while beloved was probably the only thing he wore that didnt have any combat use to it. The cloak on his back remained still sweeping quietly behind his back even when the wind gusted. One weapon was kept on his body and that was his Rapier which remained lovingly on the left side of his waist.The metal chest piece he wore had a sort of dark glimmer in the sun's light and his gauntlets and shin guards only accented this with their silver apperance.
Saphen was a man who stood at about 5'5, while short his body was well built and his crystal blue eyes with their piercing stare surveyed the arena once more. Adjusting his glasses Saphen awaited his opponent with quiet resolve. Putting into mind anything about the arena he might find useful later he began to plot different tactics for combat despite the constant chattering, talking, and even flat out yelling of the crowd above.

A figure could be seen walking into the arena, her senses swept out across the area with her every step her hips would sway slightly from side to side. Looking forward her eyes would soon be set upon the man who had entered before her, coming to a stop across the arena from him her eyes would stay on him as her senses did their thing.
Once she had come to a stop the woman would turn on her heel she would take in all before her as well as the man who stood opposite her, her slim curved figure stood at 5ft6. Her eyes had given him a good look over while she stood there, she had a beautiful slightly tanned soft face, which held a perfect structure to it.
The body, looks and beauty of a goddess is what could be seen as she stood there.
Wearing a skin tight strappy white top which clung to her figure and was cut slightly low to reveal a perfect clevage, a black choker was wore around her neck. Short tight black hotpants with black thigh high boots that had straps and silver buckles running up them were worn, on her arms were black armguards that reach up to just below her elbows so that her arms can move with ease, the armguards have lightweight armored plates running down the front of each one to protect her arms from blades, physical attacks.
Upon her frame was strapped two katana blades in a 'X' position on her back, two tantos would be on her lower back strapped upside down so that their hilts were by her hips. The tantos and katanas were worn like this as it gave her back some protection from the way they were positioned. Looking at her her opponent with her soft earthern brown eyes she smiled softly to him, her hands would be down by her sides. Suddenly she would speak, her voice was gentle and smooth in tone.
"Well hello there sir, let me introduce myself. My name is Leanne Misao, may I have the pleasure of knowing your name dear sir?"

"Saphen," the name echoed through the arena and while softly spoken it seemed to float through the air and into the stands with little problem of being heard "and the honor is mine." Removing his rapier from it's scabbard with his right hand he raised it to his face, the blade remained flat to his face until he turned it once to split the image of his face into two equal regions. The dark blue eyes stared on, indeed she was beautiful but the only way to honor beauty on the battle field is to let it shine with out fault...he would give it his all.
Saphen was slightly shorter than his opponent and among other weapons Saphen's only viewable sources were his two gauntlets, the sword, and his metal shin guards. The blade came swiftly down at a slight angel to his right side and his cloak suddenly jumped behind him for a moment before returning to resting on his back. "Leanne Misao I honor you in combat with all of my soul," suddenly Saphen was standing in traditional fencing stance. The tip of the blade pointed to his opponent, the thrusting power of a rapier is unmatched in that field of combat. It was indeed the best stabbing weapon one could find, ironically his opponent had the best slashing weapon for such a battle.
While normally the left hand would be held up or holding his hip it instead rested near his chest. The fingers opening and closing into a fist with eagerness he smiled at her his eyes never moving away from her beautiful body. "Please honor me in combat with out hesitation."

Hearing his name then seeing his movements she would smile softly to him and bow making sure to keep her eyes on him as she did, the bow was a sign of respect as he had shown respect for her. On raising from the bow her left and right hands moved up to grab the hilts of both of the katanas to pull them out from their sheaths and down across her body in a swift motion to their guard positions, her every move was filled with grace.
The left katana was pointed across her body in a 45 degree rough angle while her right was held in a reverse grip, the blade ran along her right arm positioned just above her waist. Her right foot as she brought the blades out would move back just slightly, turning her body at the hips she faced Saphen. Her right foot would be slightly turned out while her left pointed towards him, looking at him her gaze would not leave him as she spoke to answer him.
"And I will honor you with all my soul in combat Saphen, no hesitation."
Leanne stood at the ready, he had gained some respect already would he earn the rest in combat. She was sure he would, her senses continued to sweep about doing their job. The gentle smile then turned to a playful grin as she spoke once more.....
"Lets dance."

With her senses as strong as they were she would suddenly feel a thump followed by a waving sound. Sand raised from the ground behind her in a small wave about to crush down upon her body but this was merely a diversion from the real threat. Only a few seconds later ten stone spikes would fly up at her body from a few feet infront of her in a wide spread attack. Each spike about a foot in length would spray outward in a cone shaped attack. Three directed to her body (chest, stomach areas) while the rest would spray around her. Two would fly by her left and right side in an attempt to catch her if she moved either way, and the last few would fly above her head to try and stop any jumping action.
Saphen's eyes remained fixed on her, wondering how she would react and how fast she was. While his body didnt move his mind was plotting and testing all situations, making notes of her fighting stance and how best to counter the movements that can be made through it. Remaining light on his feet he continued to watch as he hoped the diversion was enough to get his attack in or atleast to see how well she reacts to multiple targets. One thought moved through Saphen's mind while he started his attacks Let us dance indeed

((Attention! Because Lenne has not posted in three days she should have received a Time-Out DQ as of twenty minutes ago. However, as no fights are near completion A 24 hour extension has been granted. If there are any extenuating circumstances A judge should have been previously informed and/or a post made in this thread to that end. If she does not post or acknowledgement of inability to do so is not given in this thread a DQ will be issued. If, by chance, circumstances kept her from making it known beforehand and she notifies a judge within one week of the DQ it will be lifted.))

((I'm sorry I have made you wait for a post but something really terrible happened today and due to that I can not really focus etc, I need to sort things out IRL. So due to the the unfortunate events taking place at the moment I am going to drop out of the tournament, I hoped to continue but after what has happened today I just can't at the moment.
Due to this-
Saphen Wins
Goodluck with the rest of the tournament Saphen, I hope you do well. You seem like you would of been a great opponent and maybe later we can have a fight at an arena etc, i'm sorry to end it like this. Thankyou.))

Saphen stood and saluted her with a smile on his face "It takes honor to put others ahead of your self or in this case your place in the tournament. I salute you with the famous words of a most honored order of knights "Est Sularus oth Mithas" My honor is my life.
