Hiro, the samurai.

Hiro was your rival; you weren't exactly enemies, but you certainly weren't friends. (Your gender is irrelevant.) You had a duel, during which you were defeated. You knelt, trying to come to terms with your impending death, but instead of beheading you, Hiro gently lifted your chin, lowered his mask, and kissed you on the lips, after which he said...

Hiro: Victory is mine.
