101. Experience

[corrinesbell]

I've really gotta get back to training, so I'm looking to spar with a couple people. Anyone interested? I promise I'll go easy on you.

[[ooc: And I happen to really like writing out fight threads, but I know not all people do, so let me know which one you prefer if your character's interested.]]

Lookin' for a sparring partner, huh? Could use a workout myself.

Just don't think I'd go easy on you, either.

[[ooc: Fight threads are fine and dandy here. :Db]]

[Voice]

[corrinesbell]

The more I think about it, if we're gonna keep getting involved in the war out there we've gotta be ready, and most practice dummies don't fight back.

When d'you wanna do this?

[[ooc: Oh yay!]]

[Voice]

[sanzu-watashi.livejournal.com]

Ain't practice if it's not against a moving target.

I'm ready anytime. Got any place in mind? [She definitely doesn't have anything better to do around here.]

[Voice]

[corrinesbell]

I know a pretty good spot in the woods near the big lake.

[Voice]

[sanzu-watashi.livejournal.com]

Got it. I'll be there.

[voice]

[no-use-running.livejournal.com]

I'll come.

(ooc: and we can totes write it out. she's not very talkative anyway. XD)

Oh, now you're speaking my language. And don't worry about going easy. I can take it. And this will be good for both of us. Name the time and the place, and I'll be there, Sheena!

[Voice]

[pimpinwings.livejournal.com]

You'd go easy on them, huh?

[Voice]

[corrinesbell]

Great.

[When she gets there it will look like Sheena is not there yet]

[voice]

[corrinesbell]

Okay. You got a place in mind?

[Voice]

[corrinesbell]

I'm probably gonna need a break, so how about later this afternoon?

[Voice]

[corrinesbell]

I don't wanna scare people off.

I'd go easy on you, too, since you aren't man enough to handle it.

Why not by the water?

[voice]

[corrinesbell]

There's a lotta water around here. You're gonna have to be more specific.

[[ooc: I sense something epic about to go down...]]

Re: [voice]

[no-use-running.livejournal.com]

Why not the lake?

(ooc: ahaha, nah; she's just in it for practice. she'll stick to sword if Sheena does. expect water antics otherwise. >D)

[Voice]

[pimpinwings.livejournal.com]

Oh hell with that, I'm more than man enough to handle you.

[Voice]

[corrinesbell]

Oh yeah?

Prove it.

[voice]

[corrinesbell]

Sounds good to me.

Re: [voice]

[no-use-running.livejournal.com]

I'll be there soon! You'll know me when I arrive.

[The blue hair is pretty distinct, after all.]

[voice]

[corrinesbell]

No problem.

[there will be no visible sign of Sheena when Ami arrives]

[action!]

[no-use-running.livejournal.com]

[Mercury never assumes she's alone. When she arrives, she frowns, and looks over her surroundings for her opponent. She sees and senses nothing. Did the girl back out?]

[action!]

[corrinesbell]

[Of course not! But when possible, Sheena gets to the site of a spar first, so she can strategize and hide herself well. Ninja rule number one is deception.

Which is why, near the lake, a cluster of tall weeds is rustling]

Re: [action!]

[no-use-running.livejournal.com]

[That gets Mercury's attention; she's tracked enemies through her connection to the Water before, and right by that water shouldn't be moving or disturbed.]

Who's there?

[Her sword is pointed in that direction.]

[action!]

[corrinesbell]

[Nobody's there. That's the best part. A single card - a well-thrown Life Seal - should collide with either the back of her head or right between the wings and drain her of just a bit of energy, unless she sees it and dodges]

Re: [action!]

[no-use-running.livejournal.com]

[So bets on a fair fight are off. Mercury's good at dodging and specializes in collecting energy to awaken Metalia. She turns away from the card, a quick and light step.

Just like that time (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oEQ0Hh3NP_Q), she reaches out to the water to find her prey. It should let her track Sheena's energy signature and movements.]
