The clouds looked like they had had silver edges as the moon shone down from behind the scattered clouds. A patch of light moved across the sparring court toward Flame, wearing his usual, a set of throwing knives down each side of his chest, two sabres crossbelted on his back and the other small blades on his fore and hindlegs. The moon came out from behind a cloud, illuminating the place and showing the beauty of it's light. Of all the lights, sunlight, firelight, lamplight and moonlight. Moonlight can the most magical, romatinc or frightening of all. It all depends what is expected that it brings. There had been a pull toward the sparring court. Flame had known that he needed to be there, he had no idea why, but the imagined footstep made him jump. Or was it imagined? There was another, and another. The twin sabres were in his paws, he didn't remember drawing them, strange, but they were there and the solid feel of the cord whipped brass was comforting. Those footsteps would be coming out of a nearby doorway, so Flame stepped over beside it so nobody would be able to see him till they were fully in the arena. His sabres reflected the moonlight onto his face, illuminating his eyes, making them glow like turquoise fire.
OOC: This for Luna, so sorry guys, it's not an open RP

OOC: Making it interesting, ne?
Luna was not a beast to feel fear but the moonlight was eerie as it cast its pale yellow shadow down upon this sparring court. The feeling of disquiet was not one she treasured . Her boots made no noise as she tread silently into the court, her aquamarine eyes darting hither and thither, hoping to make out some familiar shapes. But none were to be seen. The court was deserted. She did not like it.
As quietly as it is possible, she unsheathed her blue steel broadsword. She carressed the black silk wrapped hilt, running a tenative finger over the sapphire pommel stone. She was not sure what to expect in this place. The scent was all wrong. Slowly, she turned around, her back safely pressed against the stone wall. She waited.

Interesting. This fox, no, a hint of a perfume, this vixen was standing shoulder to shoulder with him and she didn't see him. It was probably his fur, ash grey, black and a delicate fawn combining in strange yet familiar patterns. He moved swiftly, lashing out at the sword to sweep it aside as he moved closer and whispered, "Horde or foe?"
OOC: I haven't said that Flame's a wildcat yet have I? Well, I have now!

Luna started slightly as a voice spoke at her shoudler but then relaxed. She moved away from the wall, facing the direction of the voice, her eyes darting here and there, searching for some glance of the stranger. "One of the Horde," she replied, keeping her blade up before her face defensively. "And who might you be?"

Flame was suprised that the vixen managed to keep her blade in front of her, "Oh, that's good, I'm Flameclaw, Flame to most," he said as he sheathed his sabres on his back, "you are?" he asked just before a cloud covered the moon, plunging the two beasts into near total darkness.

Luna squinted hard, cursing inwardly as the cloud covered the moon. It would make this all the more harder to complete. She lowered her sword blade slowly and let the tip of it rest gently in the dirt, the hilt leaning against her hip. She closed her eyes momentarily so that they could grow accostumed to the gloom that surrounded her and this wildcat. "I am called Luna Na'tali," she said quietly, in answer to the wildcat's question. "Lately of the Western Shore. What of you?"

Flame knew how to take and keep control of a situation, you act like you have at you're most of the way there. He pretended to be unaffected by the lack of light and answered the vixen. "I have lived here for a while now, I was here for a quite while before we moved headquarters. Before I settled in here, I was a wanderer. What brought you to the sparring court," Flame looked up to where the moon was shining behind the cloud, "Around midnight?"

Luna casually sheathed her sword. She leaned back against the wall and quietly slipped her paw into a pouch that hung on her belt, fingering the cold metal that lay within. She had not introduced this wildcat to her most precious and deadly toy. She smirked. "I think you know why I have come." Luna said silkly.

"I don't know why... Unless you couldn't sleep and felt like you were being pulled toward here then, no I don't." Flame said a little sarcasticly, not letting his wonder enter his voice. His annoying habit, and to most females, very irritating habit, of glancing all over them and evaluating them. He did it even more so with the good looking ones. Because of this, he knew that Luna had something in her belt pouch.
OOC: Why does Flame do that? Because I'm constantly going 'STOP IT YOU IDIOT' because I do it too.

OOC: *laughs*
Luna could feel the wildcat's eyes roaming over her body and she did not like it. She straightened, drawing her paw away from the pouch. She narrowed her aquamarine eyes and their color dilated until it became a icy blue. She tapped her boot impatiently. "I would appreciate it," she said frigidly, "if you would keep your roving eyes to yourself. Are you feeling up to a spar?" Without waiting for his reply, Luna opened the pouch and reached inside, grasping one of the small cold metal objects within.

Flame hid a smile at the vixen's comment, her annoyance obvious to his eyes. His eyes moved up and locked on to hers as he said dryly, "You should take it as a compliment that I choose to let my eyes rove. It's not everyone that's worth getting a good look at." He let himself smile now, "I'm alive because most of the time, I'm ready to fight for my life.... however relaxed I look." From leaning lazily on the wall, Flame spun away, his sabres seeming to appear in his paws. He faced Luna, a smile on his face as he lowered the swords and rested the points on the sandy floor of the arena and placed his paws on the pommels.

"Oh, I am impressed," Luna said sardonically as she pulled one of the metal objects from her pouch. "But I am willing to bet you have never met one of my weapons before, eh?" She flicked the metal object up into the air where it caught the moonlight. It was a star, called a Natalis and a weapon that Luna rarely used as they were precious and hard to come by. These stars had all six points honed to razor sharpness and ranged in size from the width of a finger to larger than a wolf's paw. Her smirk faded as she took aim with it. Quickly and without further delay, she caught the star and hurled it towards Flameclaw's head. "You can duck if you like or even try and catch it," she called out, "but my little friends like me too much for that."

As soon as the weapon was visible, Flame guessed that it would be thrown, so he was ready for the star when it started toward his head. His paw left the sabre it was resting on for a monent, snatching a throwing knife and hurling it in the same movement. His paw was back on the pommel almost as soon as the knife hit the star, the two weapons stopping dead and falling to the sand that floored the arena. "Most beasts don't call something like that a sparring weapon. A sparr is for practicing, not for killing." Flame looked carefully at the two weapons and commented, "I have seen a weapon like that before. I made a couple of them out of modified dagger blades for a wolf. He paid well for them, and it was a pity that he looked like a pincushon when he was only twenty paces from the forge that I was working at. He was the most polite wolf that I have ever met, not as if that means much, the only other wolves I have met, I had to kill."

OOC: Sorry, I'm being lazy lately. ^^
Luna smiled darkly at Flameclaw's comment. She retrieved her Natalis quickly and returned it to its bag. "You forget, mate, that I don't fight fair. I fight dirty, whether a spar or a real fight. I only fight to win." She unsheathed her broadsword as she was speaking and gave it a little twirl, flexing her paw.

OOC: WHA!!!!!! I WROTE AT LEAST FIVE REPLIES TO THAT!!!!
A wry grin was on Flame's face as he said, "Don't worry, I've got a thing called honour and another set of things called principals. They make me willing to be injured here rather than to kill you." Flame whipped one sabre forewards to slash down on the dagger that lay on the sand. As the dagger bounced from the blow, the tip of the sabre made it's way under the cross peice and from there, threw it up high. Flame stabbed the tip of the sabre back into the wood that was below the sand of the sparring arena and extended his paw to catch the dagger.

"You also have a thing called a wry sense of humor, mate." Luna said lightly. She watched his weapon display in amusment, still flexing her own sword.

Flame smiled at the vixen's comment and as her sword made a circle in the air, he lashed foreward and slashed hard straight for the weapon, trying to stop it while keeping his right sabre back and closer to his body. A smile grew on the wildcat's face as he said, "That's not surprising. Thanks for the warning about dirty tricks, I usually just disarm an opponent and smash their head in on or with something."

OOC: Um, I'm having a problem here. You can't say you stopped my sword. That is up to me to say whether your swing was taken or missed.
