Swordfight [Act.2]

It was crystal clear that this Samurai could fight and lead an organization he was worthy of such a title and the reputation that came with it. "You're fast for a knight," he would say to Vaenar, and still, the former Jounin didn't quite care. Still dodging strikes from Tosoi, Vaenar was trying to figure out a way to build greater distance for their battle. 

The flames raged around them as they fought, and Vaenar was concerned about Helena. The wood began to give in as the tower was subject to the intense heat of the flames. Vaenar watched the glass near his sister shatter, which was challenging to do as he kept his eyes on the adversary at the same time, and as he watched the final crack, he would use the Bull Rush technique to shift all his body weight and energy towards her.

He would put his body on the line to protect the young girl from the glass that shattered from heat, and he would kick through the wall "Helena. I need you to do your big brother a favor, jump in the river for me," she would look down. "Uhh, Vaenar, that's a big jump. You sure mommy and daddy would be okay with this?" The poor girl had not even heard the news of their parents' demise yet it seemed. Vaenar had to appreciate this moment as he hadn't heard her voice in so long before he broke from his shock. "Yes, they told me it was okay." With that, Vaenar would rub her head before she jumped into the water, signaling up with a wave and her little hat trying to navigate through the water into a safe spot. She was an excellent swimmer, the art having been drilled as she swam in the moat of the Hoshimura Castle. 

"Are you done playing house silverhead?" said Tosoi as he toyed with his blades.
