Cris was so humble. That was one of the things Jasmine liked about him, but she had to give credit where credit was due. He was good, no better than good. She was was sure that brother Sander was exceptional at dueling, but Cris appeared to be so too. Jasmine had noticed that Cris often comapared himself to his brother, always placing himself second. That bothered Jasmine. Did Cris not know how amazing he was?

When Cris suggested they duel, Jasmine was a little leery. She had just seen him annihilate a dummy and she was not feeling that confident. However, her competiive natuture kicked in. Never one to back down from a challenge, Jasmine agreed to the duel. "I will accept your challenge sir", Jasmine said. How could she say no to his puppy dog face? She hoped he never used that face on her in a serious situation because she'd be a goner. "Are you ready?", Jasmine asked Cris.
