The two were throwing punches mid-air, and then... Stephanie's sword fell out of her hand.

Maximus seized the opportunity, pointing the tip of his sword at her throat.

Maximus raised an eyebrow. "Why do you want to kill me?"

"It was a misunderstanding! I wasn't trying to kill you. I just wanted to have a little duel with you!"

"A duel?"

"Exactly!"

"You expect me to believe that?"

"Believe it or not, that's the truth!"
