A Highlander is an immortal being who can be killed if in a sword fight the sword cuts off the Highlander's head. But it does not have to be in a fight it could be any time anywhere.A Highlander carries a sword 24/7 and a fight with two or a duel meant it would be an all out intense battle and one that could last a few minutes or in fact several hours .This then is the story of one such battle between Highlander named then Rivon and a Highlander name Frentz,a then battle that would stretched not only time and space but death itself. Rivon turn,his sword at the ready, his eyes study everything around him, where are you Frentz? It was America he knew that but the time or era was wrong ? He was in the south,that much he knew,the state was Florida , but the time he had no idea at all ? He could sense the other's presence as well,Rivon,his rival as well. He too was tall six feet five a head taller then himself.Both had had swords that were as old as they were , Made then probably by some blacksmith long ago . Forged by his hands too, it was true a Highlander can only die if their heads were cut off and so far Frentz had numbered thirty two. Rivon had killed thirty. Frentz turned as he was walking in then the busy section of a town called then Daven,he figured out the name because it was written on everything. Rivon had in fact followed Frentz into Daven and there he was standing there holding his sword . Frentz was his enemy and he knew that,his heart in fact raced with seeing him there,he wanted to attack Frentz immediately but Rivon was not that way, he took his time,executed his plan,laid out everything before him like a map. A highlander in fact had weaknesses but they also had strengths to and one of them was anticipation knowing when your enemy would attack and how .
