A full 40 feet from the ground, the Booted Lad manages to hang on to the edge of the roof. Just one more reason not to fight on high buildings...

Ouch! The Warrior's blade slices lightly through the Lad's face. "Give me but one chance!" thinks the Lad.

Gritting his teeth he prepares for his final thrust against the Dark Warrior!

...his battle is not over! "Sink me," says the Lad, " I must start once again..."

"Well, a good sword bout never hurt anyone, so far as I've heard..."
