Namari grinned, "And my name's Namari, as he said as well. And trust me, it only takes a sword to be the top of the arena!"
She shook her head at Roe quick, to signify that she was fine, and shimmied some fingers into the glove, before pulling it down with her teeth. "I'm not completely used to being handicapped, but I'm used to it enough, no worries," she let go of the glove and smiled at the men, flexing her fingers.
Roe chuckled at Namari. "Of course, wouldn't want to make the new queen TOO soft now would we?" He teased. He turned to Delliks. "And the sun rises every day, only to fall later. Don't assume you will stay at mid day every moment you are here or you will wind up dead."
"The sun must be shining somewhere and for someone though, I am used to the dark good sir. You need not worry about me. I am aware that the sun falls many-a-time, only to rise again, on others."
He tossed up the sword and caught it again at its tip. He held it out to Roe, "I take it that the lady is your partner, please don't let me intrude."
The queen eh? Was she here for training? Or was she well practiced already, he would guess she was already an experienced fighter, a warrior queen. That was good then, a ruler should have power to uphold order from time to time.
Roe snorted at the man as he handed Namari the sword. Instead, he drew his practice sword and handed it to Namari. "No, Delliks, you're not interfering. If you're going to fight, you need to warm up and get in the battle mood or else you'll wind up dead or hurt. Plus, if you go in there having already fought a little bit then you'll have the advantage of adrenaline right off the bat." Roe explained. "Plus, this old elf has been slacking in hand to hand combat so I don't need a sword right now." He smiled at Namari. "Plus, I don't want to make it too hard on you guys. Wouldn't be fair if I had a sword too."
Delliks chuckled, "Sounds like arithmetic rather than battle, with all those pluses."
He shrugged and took the sword back into his hand. Properly that is. The Hunter sure liked to use extremes. He needed to relax, or that would kill him, Delliks grinned at the thought.
"Well M'Lady, although I doubt a thank you is in order, you are most certainly welcome." he winked back, giving a smile with it, a twinkle in his tooth. And with that he began to stretch and warm up.

Namari took the practice sword, patient for the day she would wield her personal sword once more. She smiled at Delliks, before turning to Roe with a smirk, "Better than me. I only know how to use a sword- barely know any magic. Though I don't think one arm is too affective in hand to hand combat!"
Roe glanced at Namari, amused of her statement about one armed hand to hand combat. "Is that so? You'd be surprised how many times people got bested by me or my older brother when one of us had a broken arm." The thought of his older brother pained Roe, knowing that he would have to kill him when he fought his father. It was a shame he didn't come with Ishin and him, but fate doesn't always agree with what people want. Roe hid his memories well from the two people in front of him. "In fact, I'll show you now." He said kinda lazily. Then he went into blood release. All the swords he had were strapped to his back. With a grin, he looked at them with a special glint in his eyes. "I won't use any of these, but I want you both to attack me at once! And Namari, I need to show you a few things about being one armed!" He said excitedly.
Delliks shrugged, if he said so. He had noticed that the Hunter had many swords on his back, meaning his back and legs would most nearly be the strongest muscles on his body.
Delliks went in for a horizontal slice. Holding the sword with one hand.
Roe was intrigued with the form of attack Delliks chose. A horizontal slice, a good way to start into a technique. As the sword came for his chest ((sorry, you didn't specify where so I just assumed chest level)) Roe launched his hand up and hit the flat of the blade as he did a backwards bending motion. The sword swooped over his head as Roe started 'falling' towards Delliks' left side. Roe landed on his hand and bent his elbow while turning to roll under Delliks in an attempt to trip him up. As soon as he had rolled over completely he would push himself up and get back into a guard position.
Delliks frowned, his attack would have planned out perfect if the woman would have joined the fight at the same time, but alas, things didn't always go to plan. He hurdled over the hunter and turned back around to face him easy enough.

(( I really really am sorry guys LOL I'm not even going to try and give you excuses! And i must say as well, sorry for the cruddy reply! ))
Namari looked Roe up and down, wishing she had attacked earlier but dismissed it- she gripped her sword tightly, moving to the opposite end where Delliks stood, eyes flickering back and forth between the two men. With a tighter grip her body moved, and she attempted to send the weapon down upon the man's head.
Delliks swung his sword horizontally at the hunter's side, trying to make it harder for him to evade both of the attacks without screwing up. Fighting two on one did leave a sour taste in his mouth however...
(It's alright Namari, you're still in school so I'm not going to complain because I do understand)
Namari moved forward, not in unison with Delliks. Perfect. As her sword descended on his head, Roe stepped back slightly to his right and smacked the flat of Namari's blade as hard as he could hoping it would send her toppling into Delliks or his attack. As soon as he smacked the blade he jumped his feet backwards a ways and kept his arm huddled close to his chest as he moved his midsection back to avoid the attack of Delliks should Namari not go where he hoped she would.

The woman raised an eyebrow, then scowled, turning her blade just in case it went towards Delliks, before she turned her body and went flying past the man, skidding to a halt and turning round to the two. She needed to step her game up a bit- two weeks of just sitting down wasn't good for her.
"You're a little squirmy fella I see." Delliks chuckled deeply.
Now he would try something different. He decided to wait for the lass to attack first and he would try and mirror her speed and time his move with hers.
"Not squirmy, experienced." Roe corrected the man. These two were both skilled fighters, but Namari had been out of action for far too long to not be rusty and Delliks... Delliks just wasn't quite good enough yet to really mess Roe up unless he wanted him to. "But, you two still have to attack together. I know I'm talking to two seasoned fighters, but I doubt either of you have met somebody who has spent their entire life fighting and killing. Especially one as old as I. To defeat an opponent like that, one armed or not, you must act cohesively and communicate with one another or you stand no chance. Picture if this was a real fight, how quickly both of you would have been dead. Think about what you could've done differently if you fail and how you could have improved upon your success. Again!" Roe half commanded. He didn't know the newcomer, but he was young and no matter how much talent you have, you can't do jack squat until you know what to do with it.

"You are well aware my friend that I normally battle alone," she grinned, placing her feet firmly on the ground. She was stubborn- but not when it came to battle. Namari thought it fine to work with Delliks, she just wasn't used to it. She had to think about his actions as well.
It was quick thinking- currently she was a bit faster than Delliks. Sure, her legs were still sore from past events. But she still had an upper-hand; light clothing, a smaller, lighter sword than she usually used, and an elf none the less. So she would have to move to the farther sides of Roe, to time everything perfectly. And clearly Delliks was a seasoned fighter- if Namari were to slip to the other side of Roe and hit in a sideways motion, if Delliks did the same, Roe would either be trapped, or Delliks and the Queen would catch each other with their weapons, and not hit each other. She hoped, at the very least.
Namari got to moving, moving to run past Roe to his farther side, ready to spin around and slash at the man- or, change her strategy if Delliks had another idea planned.
Roe smiled as Namari affirmed she almost always fought alone. "That was the old you. Now you must let others fight for you, Queen of Avaleur." He said factually. Truly, she couldn't get too involved in many battles because she was the queen and was too important to risk. As Namari moved to his farther side, Roe mentally shook his head. She was distancing herself from her ally without even trying to communicate, which was never good. Immediately, Roe jumped forwards at Delliks at full speed. With his slightly increased capabilities due to blood release paired with his elvish descent, he could only assume he appeared as a slow blur to Delliks. When Roe was within kicking distance of Delliks, he turned to the side and jumped at the same time, sending him into an arc above the man while spinning. It was a fancy move, but it could be effective if done correctly. The spinning gave Roe even more momentum, and he brought down his leg in what could be a devastating heel drop unless Delliks blocked it with his weapon. Even then, damage was still possible. Roe knew it was harsh, but he had faith the youth could escape unscathed. Especially if he was who he was beginning to think he was.
