One on one. (CLOSED stalk tho)

"I don't have a sword myself."

Luna tossed the girl a stick. "Go ahead, take your best shot." she said, taking of her armor and tools and grabbing a stick herself.

"You might beat me in combat, but I'll be you in magic."

"Sure, honey. You could definitely beat an experienced ex-pirate and arch-mage in mortal combat."

"I can if I'm a phoenix."

"Right, a glowing pigeon. You're honestly just spewing out more ways to get yourself killed."

"That, or more ways to protect myself."

"Yes, obviously a human homing beacon is what we need." she said. Suddenly, Luna charged at the princess. "Fight! Like your life depends on it!" she said, swinging her stick.

Kat ducks, but the stick still manages to hit her elbow. She grits her teeth to hide the scream, more of shock that Luna is so strong rather than of pain.

Luna jabbed at Kat's torso. "Kill." she said. "Try again." Luna swung her stick.

Kat catches it this time, and suddenly the stick is a pile of ashes.

"Hmm. No magic from you, try again." Luna said, grabbing a new stick and lunging at the girl, jabbing at her leg this time. "Now you can't use that limb, since I hit it. Pretend this is a real sword, and fight!" she said, jabbing the princess's stomach. "That will slowly kill you, and make you much slower. But if given proper medical treatment as soon as you can get it, you might survive."

Kat pretends to sear the wound closed with her hand. "There. Medical treatment."

"Good, but internal bleeding will kill you soon after." she jabbed near the girl's throat, a centimeter from touching it. "If I hit your neck, you would be dead. Pay attention."

"Why are we doing this again?"

"Well, most people here are much more skilled than you are, I want to give you a fighting chance. And seeing as I keep besting you in combat, that's going to take a while."

"OK. This fighting? It's pointless. You need to teach me, rather than brag."

"Fight me. Now. Attack as best you can. I'm not bragging, this is how I learned."

"I'd rather not fight. I'm technically the QUEEN now, you know."

"Okay, be lazy and die." Luna said, walking off to gather firewood.

Kat sits on a log, playing a little with Fawkes.

Luna changes her outfit, and uses some spells to disguise her voice. She then hopped silently through the trees, and shot an arrow right next to where Kat was sitting. "Your money or your life!" the husky masculine voice said out of Luna's mouth. She readjusted her mask, and shot another arrow.

"Fawkes, Blaze Brighter," Kat whispers, and Fawkes is suddenly very brightly ablaze. Kat herself puts up a protective 'force-field' of fire around herself.

Luna shot out a blast of water, which took out the flames. "I don't have time for your games, little girl."

"I'm not a little girl," Kat says, turning into a phoenix. She shoots a burning hot stream of lava at Luna.

Luna blocked it, and sent a wave of water at Kat with immense force, knocking the girl over.

"You're making me real mad," Kat says, her eyes ablaze and hands balls of fire.

Luna sent vines at the girl, tying her to the tree.

A burst of flames emits from Kat's body, burning the vines. Without her knowing, her hair starts to turn into literal fire and her body gets a protective layer of lava.

Luna encased the girl in stone, with a few small holes for air. "Hmm, I'll rate you a 1 out of fifty rating since I feel nice." she said, taking the voice changing charm off and ripping away the mask.
