Chapter 8

"Throw me the rope."  The man said as he hung on the edge of the cliff.  Lady Wifi throws the rope to aid the vigilante.

"Thank you." He said being both polite and good-looking.

"W-w-w-w-we'll wait until you are ready."  Lady Wifi stuttered feeling inimidated by his height. He had sharp green eyes that could easily make any damsel fall.

"Again, thank you."  He repeated shaking his opponent's hand.

"I do not mean to pry, but you don't by any chance happen to have the butterfly miraculous?" Lady Wifi asked.

"Do you always begin conversations this way?" Did she not notice his cat theme attire?

"My father was akumatized by the wielder of the butterfly miraculous. Was a great sword-maker, my father. When this miraculous holder appeared and request a special sword, my father took the job. He slave a year before it was done." Lady Wifi explained as she held the butterfly decorated sword handle.

"I've never seen its equal." The man stated as he admired the effort into making such a beautiful weapon.

"The butterfly miraculous holder returned and demanded it, but at one- tenth his promised price. My father refuse. Without a word, the butterfly miraculous holder akumatized him through the heart. I loved my father, so naturally I challenged his akumatiztion to a duel. I fail. The butterfly miraculous holder
akumtizied me as well. But he give me this."

"How old were you?" The cat themed man curiously asked.

"I was fifteen years old. When I was a-strong enough, I dedicated my life to the study of fencing, so the next time we meet, I will not fail. I will go up to the butterfly miraculous holder and say, "Hello. My name is Alya Ceasire. You akumatized my father. Prepare to
       die."

"You've done nothing but study swordplay?"

"More a pursuit than a study, lately. You see, I cannot find him. It has been twenty years now and I am starting to lose confidence. I just work for Volpina to pay the bills. It's not a lot of money in revenge."

"Well, I-I certainly hope you find him someday."

"You are ready, then?"

"Whether I am or not, you've been more than fair."

"You seem a decent fellow. I hate to kill you."

"You seem a decent fellow. I hate to die." He sarcastically remarked as he drew not a sword from his belt but a retractable silver baton.

"Begin." Lady Wifi said as they fought with there metal weapons.

"You are using Stoneheart's defense against me, uh?"

"I thought it fitting, considering the rocky terrain." The man replied glad that his rival understood the pun he made in with his skills.

"Naturally, you must expect me to attack with Capo Ferro."

"Naturally, but I find that Thibault cancels Capo Ferro, don't you?" The masked man replied as Lady Wifi wondered if the man was taught by a purr-fessional instructor.

"Unless the enemy hasn't studied his Agrippa,
which I have!" Lady Wifi was surprised when the man blocked her attack with his baton. "You are wonderful!"

"Thank you. I've worked hard to become so."

"I admit it, you are better than I am."

"Then why are you smiling?" The man dread that his opponent may have something up her sleeves.
