Lucina had stayed outside, so Kirstin tried to get the drop on her. Not prepared for an attack from above, Lucina barely managed to raise her blade in time for a parry.

After landing, Kirstin would attempt to grapple Lucina to the ground, by kicking her leg out from under her. Regardless of whether or not this was successful, Kirstin would stay as close as possible, so Lucina's longer sword was less effective.
Lucina managed to dodge Kirstin, but the Scotswoman still managed to get in close. Lucina tried to dodge back to her blade's effective range, then thrust the blade forward, aiming to put the tip through Kirstin's heart.
Once her grapple failed, and Lucina began dodging backwards, Kirstin stared quickly backpedaling, and sheathed her sword. At the same time, Kirstin took out one of her firebombs and lit the match on the side. Still moving away, Kirstin would throw the makeshift incendiary grenade at her opponent, which would create a large fireball upon impact with the ground.
Her thrust missing, Lucina saw Kirstin pull out something. Not knowing what it was, but recognising it was about to be thrown right at her, she sprinted to the side to avoid it.
Kirstin swore again as Lucina avoided the ball of fire, and Kirstin took her rifle from her back again. Now the fight was in the street, with light from the flames, Kirstin had a better chance of hitting. She dropped to one knee, aiming at Lucina's chest, before firing a single shot.
Turns out good swordsmanship was no match for a bullet. Lucina fell as Kirstin's shot found its mark.
Apollo was looking at one of the TVs in the locker room quite over joyed. He found the most comfortable place to watch it from in the locker room, and said "This is my kind of place! Death matches, and violent sports of blood between dangerous individuals. The only thing I need now is a nice beer, and a cigar. I must have died and gone to heaven!"
Kirstin stared at Lucina's corpse for a few seconds, before dropping her gun and retching. The arena reset around her, as Kirstin was declared the victor. Scowling, the Scot picked her gun up and headed into the locker room. She kept the weapon raised, and chambered a new round, as she entered.
Lucina respawned in a tube in the locker room, falling out of it and clutching her chest as Kirstin entered, gasping in pain.
Kirstin stared at Lucina reappearing, then blinked a few times. [color=cc3300]"What the hell is going on?"[/color] she asked, lowering her rifle. [color=cc3300]"It's some Old World rifle. Dunno what kind."[/color] Kirstin replied, looking at Lucina. Anyone with knowledge of 20th century firearms may recognise it as a Lee-Enfield rifle.
Lucina, hearing Kirstin, turned and raised her blade, but to cover herself rather than threaten Kirstin. "I do not know, but the battle is over. Drop your... whatever that is." Her confidence trailed off a bit at the end there.
"It's called a gun. Here have one, Colt 45, Semi-automatic." He said, nonchalantly tossing the pistol towards her. He turned his attention towards Kirstin who walked in "Well I obviously died, and went to heaven. I don't know what the rest of you are doing here though."
Lucina flinched as Apollo tossed the pistol towards her, stepping back from where the gun clattered to the floor.
"I've never even seen these weapons before." Lucina said, sheathing her blade. "I didn't know that." Her knightly confidence had given way to dorky embarrassment.
