The jolly Roger was hoisted into the air and excitement leap in her breast a flicker of a smile playing on her lips as her fingertips tapped along the hilt of her rapier. At the shout of her captain Fara's eyes light up. She loved boarding other ships the excitement a thrill unattainably any other way.<br/><br/>With practiced ease as if she'd been doing so forever she hooked a line over the main sail and swung onto the other ship boots landing lightly on the deck of the other ship. Everyone was moving so quickly, shouting, the smell of gunpowder heavy in the air, sounds swirling so thick it made it impossible to hear but it didn't matter Fara was at home here. People were running at it looked as if most didn't seem to yet notice the three female pirates that had boarded them but a few had.<br/><br/>A flash of silver and Fara turned a half step to her right pulling her rapier from the sheath on her hip and held it easily in her hand and the man advanced practically at a run as if hoping to scare her into retreated or perhaps to run her through. Neither would happen. A flick of her wrist batted the ill held blade away from her and two quick steps took her out of his running path. From there it was a simple thing to pivot on one foot and slash across his back the keen edge on her blade cutting threw the fabric and his skin like it was little more then warm butter.<br/><br/>A crimson line soaked through his clothing as he snarled and turned to face her her face twisted in pain. Fara's face was cold her blue grey eyes showing no emotion as she batted away a swipe to her abdomen and slashed at hi arm. He hissed and swung again using too much power, leading with his elbow instead of his wrist his ever move screamed at her moments before he made it. The sound of steel on steel rang through the air combining with the other sounds of violence as the two fought. The air around them whistled and Fara could hear gun shots too near to them. she didn't have time to play with him as she'd like, besides he wasn't proving much of a challenge any way.<br/><br/>He caught her during moment of ill attention and caught her across her shoulder. She glared at him and took advantage of his lowered guard and lunged forward stabbing him between the ribs. He cried out as she pulled back and her expression flickered something that almost looked like regret but was gone too fast for anyone to be sure. The man went to his knees dying of that she was sure but to be safe she slashed into his lower abdomen before departing from him her eyes seeking another fool hearty person who thought to challenge her.
