Stella blinked and curled her mouth into a wicked smile, while Kathleen thought she was passed out she grabbed her rope and slunk into the trees. She hid in the shadows, her dark skin making her nearly invisible. Picking up speed and ducked and danced through the trees, keeping perfectly silent until she was in front of the other girl. As she passed in front of her she leapt out and wrapped the rope around her neck, tightening it behind her head until she couldn't breath. As Kathleen crumpled to the ground she wrapped it several time around her legs and arms so she couldn't move an inch. Just to be safe she also removed all her weapons and placed them out of reach, then stood back, leaning causualy against a tree and waited for her to regain conciousness.
Kathleen smiled. "Good job young one." She, although it looked impossible, the ropes fell almost instantly off, stunning Stella. "But you still have much to learn. Now, may I walk off in peace, or should I whip your butt again?" She grabbed her sword. "I don't like having to do tis to you. I find it unfair that I, skilled in the art of fighting, to beat you over and over. It will ruin your pride." She heald her sword in a way so that Stella could not come near her. She was ready for the slightest move.
How do they ropes just fall off? The people here are evil, but not magic
