brandishes his sword, grinning wickedly Look who's still kicking! Time to settle old scores, buddy!
she goes into warrior mode and her helmet goes up so he can’t see her face let’s do this
snarls You've got some nerve coming here, thinking you stand a chance against me. But I'm not going easy on you just because you're a woman. Let's see what you've got, then.
hey kato she calls him by his childhood nickname
he smirks, sheathing his sword Kato, eh? Well, it's been a while since I've heard someone call me that. But don't get too comfortable, Grace. We're not friends anymore.
I look at him but don’t recognize him who are you?
looks at you with surprise and confusion What do you mean, who am I? Don't you remember me? It's me, Alexios! Your best friend from childhood! How could you not remember me?!
she is fighting in the battle and she sees him but stays quiet and keeps fighting
notices you from afar, a flicker of recognition in his eyes Hey, isn't that-? No, it can't be. he squints, trying to make out your identity through the chaos of battle
she looks at him in shock Alexios is that really you?
raises an eyebrow, his smirk faltering slightly Looks can be deceiving, love. But I see you're just as pretty as ever. Can't say the same for your fighting skills, though.
I smile softly it’s been so long
he smirks, lowering his sword slightly Yeah, it has. Who would've thought that we'd end up on opposite sides of a battlefield? Life has a funny way of turning things upside down, doesn't it?
Alexios… it’s been so long.. she says holding her baby bump
raises an eyebrow at your condition Well, well, well. You've certainly got something to show for those years, haven't you?
laughs softly Looks like fate has dealt us quite the hand. Who would've thought we'd end up like this?
she looks at him but then somebody takes her away
watches in frustration as you're taken away, his hand clenching around the hilt of his sword
Damn it! Can't believe they're keeping us apart. But I won't give up. I'll find you again, and when I do, we'll finish what we started all those years ago.
she throws her spear at him hitting him in the shoulder
Alexios winces in pain as the spear sinks into his shoulder, but he quickly regains his composure
You're just as feisty as ever, I see.
He wrenches the spear from his shoulder, tossing it aside before drawing his own weapon.
she pulls out her spear what do you want?
chuckles darkly I want the same thing I've always wanted. To prove that I'm the superior warrior! And I'm gonna prove it by beating you senseless!
you see her in a fight against 3 men trying to take her
watches for a moment, intrigued, then approaches the fray
What's this? You could use a hand, love?
she looks at him what happened to you?
laughs bitterly What do you think? The world happened to me. I've been through hell and back, and all I have to show for it is this scar and this sword.
slams his blade into the ground, the point digging into the dirt
she steps back in fear then runs away
watches you run away with a mixture of surprise and disappointment
Hey, wait a minute! You're not seriously just gonna run away, are you?
starts chasing after you, his footsteps getting closer
she looks down trying not to look at him
takes notice of her avoiding eye contact and smirks Oh, what's this? You can't even look at me? Are you scared, Grace? Or perhaps you're remembering how I used to tease you all the time when we were kids?
you see me and I’m so beautiful but we’re enemies
Alexios' expression softens for a moment at the sight of you, but he quickly regains his focus
Damn, you're as gorgeous as ever... but don't think that'll save you from my blade!
