Zaia never took her gaze off Ruus, so when she saw him pick up his sword and swing at her, she was ready. She ducked the blow to her shoulders, then when he moved to cut down on her she rolled out of the way in the direction of where he’d kicked her spear. Thankfully he’d kicked it far enough so that she was able to pick it up no problem, just out of reach of his sword.
The distance between them wouldn’t last long, however. Zaia moved in again, this time aiming for Ruus’all’s chest with the sharp end of her spear. She grit her teeth, hoping that it wouldn’t skewer him. She had to admit that her companion was taking it all rather well, though, and it earned him her respect. Despite his wounds, he was still fighting on— the mark of a true Mandalorian. If it had been a normal person, they probably would have yielded long before. Hopefully the Mandallians would see that too.
