The first move. [9/10, private.]
By: King Date: September 10, 2012, 12:59 am
---------------------------------------------------------
The king walks onto the battlefield with a smile on his face.
once he gets in the starting position, he stretches out to the
skys, and lets out a loud 'ahh', as if hes just released alot of
pressure.
"Your the guest, sweetie. Feel free to pick any arena type you
would like" he calls to his opponent cheerfully.

The click of her heels on the field is unmistakeable. Her voice
rolled in it's light Spanish accent, voice a smoky one. And
amused. "Convenient excuse. You simply are as indecisive as the
French." She fiddled with the discreet wrist accessory, her
armor drawn around her in it's ever shifting form. It clung
lovingly to her curvy form, yet it moved with her, as if simply
water on her skin. Her face, that light mocha skin, was
concealed carefully, as she would be in any battle.
Around them, an outdoor marketplace formed. Winding streets,
stalls, vendor carts. Buildings of no more than perhaps 3
stories scattered about. Most were only a single story. Steps,
balconies. It was a veritable jungle. Distinctly Arabian,
perhaps a bit historical, it appeared as something out of
Arabian Nights.
The sun was bright and very warm, the heat rising steadily
higher, as it would in the desert. The time of day is quite
likely mid morning.
Neither opponent is in sight of the other, for now.

He smiles. "Oh, no. Im simply behaving as a gentleman should, my
dear" he calls to her as he bows. In his bow, his own armor
covers him. It is dark, simple, and lacks a face plate at the
moment. His sword has formed on his back, attatched by an
unknown means. He starts to stroll around the area, simply
taking the surroundings in. He awaited her to make the first
move.

Men clad in turbans, and women entirely veiled but for their
eyes meander around him, shoving and bumping against him. Black
is a very predominant color amidst the people.
He waited, meandering about. It's getting boring. And then a
crowd of black swathed individuals moved past him in a gaggle,
and a plume of something that smelled vaguely spicy is blown
into his eyes, nose. His face, in general. And then that gaggle
of women melted back into the crowd, his attacker still
unidentified or placed.

Dante coughs, making a puff of the powder come from him. He then
trys to shake it off, laughing abit. "you think id expect this
kind of thing by now" he calls out, trying to clear his eyes.

From somewhere above him, as it hits him high on his back, comes
a piece of paper, balled. He feels it hit him, but for now, he's
eyes and nose burn too much. The ginger was painful, only
worsening the longer it sits in the mucus membranes. He's pretty
sure he hears the quiet roll of her laughter for moments, before
it stops.

Dante sighs and stops, eyes closed as they start to burn.
"Anyone got some water?" he asks the mostly useless AI. One,
however, does run up to him. A young boy gets water from his
father, and runs it to him on the command. Dante quickly takes
it when its presented, and clenses his eyes. "thanks kid'' he
says as the AI rejoins the crowd, then he shakes his now
drenched face and hair out, and his face becomes covered in its
own armor. Dante laughs and looks around for her.
"so how long shall we play hide and seek?"

The paper sat in a ball at his feet. Once he realizes this and
opens it, the elegant script simply says, Until you come find
me. Never let the Black Queen make the first move.
Now, he knows he can hear her laughing. Looks like he gets to
find her.

Another sigh and a smile. "Must I realy always be the hunter,
Ni?" He laughs, and wall jumps onto the rooftops, scanning the
crowd

She stands hipshot and laughing on one of the taller handful of
buildings. Her arms are crossed as she waits. The silver gleam
of those sais occasionally glitters as they spin. She seems not
at all bothered by the sun as it beats down upon her head and
his.
