Why can't the flowers grow? (open, scarlette)

"I'm Scarlette, daughter of aphrodite." i replied, and then swished away at the dummy in front of me. I had been doing this for years, but it never tired me. Then I had a brilliant idea, I could fight Caroline, as a practice, real expreience would be good, but I obviously wouldn't do it if she didn't want me to. I took her in, to see if she was a good match for me. She seemed very quick on her feet, but something told me that she wasn't very experienced because she hadn't been at camp for a long time. After examinating her, I decided she would work. "Caroline, would you like to battle?"

Caroline was doing good, better than I had expected, but I had an idea. I let her get close to me, I pretended that I was a worse fighter than I actually was, although I could do much better. I backed up when she stepped forward, and kept blocking her shots. I only jabbed at her a few times, and when I did, I made sure to miss, or let her counter them. Caroline then cut my with her balde, but it didn't hurt, after all we were just practicing. After Caroline did that she was so close to me that I could see all the tiny specks of colors in her eyes. That was when I decided to strike. I went all out, there was no way she could counter it, I was on fire. I knocked Caroline's balde to the ground.

ooc: Scarlette, this is going to be the end of this thread. Sorry it is so short! I had fun roleplaying! First time ever! WOOT WOOT!
