Royal was now some feet away, and as the the stab wildly went through the air he rushed forward, hitting Ricardo's blade directly in the center of it, slashing it to the side. At the same time he stepped forward, and pressed the tip of his blade into Ricardo's throat, on his Adam's apple. His nine millimeter was pointed at Ricardo with his other hand, below the poncho to actually do some damage [/b] "You fight well Ricardo. Very well."
