[IRP] The First of Many

“FALCON KIIIIICK!”

That was the last thing the bandit heard before a sharp blow landed behind his head. The force behind his axe relaxed and his grip around Paige’s neck loosened as he fell into in unconscious slump. Unfortunately, he fell into Paige, his face buried in her chest. She would have pushed him off in disgust had she not been trying to catch her breath. Fortunately, the red-haired knight approached, pulling the fallen foe off of her. With a helpful hand, she was back on her feet.

“Paige,” she managed to respond to Satsume with her own intro out between coughs. “And thank you.”

Paige grabbed her cloak and walked with Satsume towards the schoolhouse. The young woman looked to the sky to find the peg knight that saved her life. She waved to her, but Paige had no idea if she could see her.
