Vent Waynolt: Bodygaurd


It was dark, but Vent could see. It was silent but he could hear. He heard his instructor moving about; saw the outline of his instuctor and his sword. Vent had been a student here under Wess Galor for a number of years... learning how to master the hand and a half sword, and how to be a bodyguard. He had met Wess when he was around 12 years old. Vent was the son of a merchant, and Wess had hired on as a caravan gaurd. That was six years ago. Now he was sparing with wess each attack almost a surprise other than seeing a shift in the outline, and maybe hearing the blade slice through the air of the dark cave Wess called home along with his student.

Vent ducked the first attack and counterd with an upward thrust, using his legs to help drive it, only to have his blade turned away by Wess, and receive a nasty kick to the stomache. Stunned Vent fell back parrying a series of thrusts and slashes. Thats when he found the cave wall... no more room to go backwards... and his sword high and to his right... he didn't realize it until he saw the thrust coming, right for his heart. Wess had to stop short, just had to... he had to know his student didn't have anywhere to run and also had to know he couldn't parry the blow....

Next thing Vent saw blinded him... he was disoriented and confused... he didn't have his sword... he must have dropped it... where is that light coming from?... why is it so bright?... where did the breeze come from? and the smell... He was standing in the vales. He recovered shortly his eyes still a bit sensitive to the light of the sun, but he was alive... at least he thought he was, he felt fine after all. It wasn't long after he met Mel... who told him where he could find a master swords man to finish his training. and it wasn't long after that he actualy found the master... Ami, who took him on as a student of the sword.
