The Capulets and Montagues were once friendly neighbors; until an unfortunate event occurred.
The two households youngest children, a Capulet, Catherine, and a Montague, Freddy accidently stabbed each other. The two had been carefully practicing fencing. Freddy decided to get a drink of water and took off his armor. Catherine, not realizing that he stopped started to lunge with her sword out stretched, but pulled back. However, her foot skills were not the best and tripped over the freshly cutgrass, impaling Freddy on the end of her sword. Now Freddy realizing he had been stabbed tried to reach out to Catherine for support. The only issue was he still held his sword gripped in his hand so when he thrust out his hand he stabbed Catherine in the heart.
From that day on their families hated each other. Each one believed that the other child had been the one to start the fight, and could not overcome their argument to be civil.
What type of armor was Freddy wearing? Wouldn't it have taken him some time to perform this action?
ReplyDeleteIt was an easy slip on and off kind. Not really protective since they were only practicing.
