Midnight Academy discussion

((large arena, perfect place to practice sword fighting and powers))

Scarlet walked in, her sword gripped in her hand tightly

Ari walked in, her sword by her side. She started practicing basic hits and blocks.

Cormac sauntered in, wearing a tight shirt and trackies.

Ari saw Cormac. She waved at went back to her training. She got into more complex moves, and started to leap and turn the swordfighting into a dance.

He waved and watched her moves. He smiled a little.

Ari felt his eyes on her. She smiled and looked around. "See something you like?"

His smooth smile grew. "Yes, actually"

Scarlet swished her swrod around in her hand

Ari raised an eyebrow. "I think you mean my beautiful sword. Her name is Ashy. Isn't she pretty?" Ari replied, laughing.

Cormac inspected her sword "Very, very pretty"

Oliver smirked as he leaned up against the wall, watching everyone closly

Ari raised it up. Ashy glinted in the sunlight. "You swordfight?"

Cormac's eyes met Oliver's. A smile played on his lips. "Yes" He said, turning back to Ari

"So, you up for it?"

"Of course!" He laughed

Ari twirled her sword in the air. She caught it. "Bring it on!"

He pulled his sword. A massive broadsword, the steel nearly black, shining in the light, it had Gaelic written on it. "Ready"

Ari nodded. She got into position, full focus on the fight brewing.

He grinned, not moving.

"Umm... You ready?"

Francois wrote: "Cormac's eyes met Oliver's. A smile played on his lips. "Yes" He said, turning back to Ari"

Oliver nodded as he watched closly

"Yes, yes I'm ready"

"Okay..." she braced herself again.

Cormac smiled, still ready, waiting for her to strike first

Ari couldn't take it anymore. She struck the first blow, expecting him to block it.

Cormac moved swiftly, disarming her. He struck hen stopped, the tip of the blade just touching her stomach.

Ari leapt away, only letting the tip of his sword brush her stomach. She landed behind him and pointed the sword at his back.

He smiled and spun, swinging his sword upwards, it brushes her shirt, cutting it, at the same time, he hears e clang of metal. He grins and laughs.

Ari stopped his blade, hearing the clang of metal against metal. She launched into a series of swings, moving forward with each. She smiled. Then she realized her shirt had been cut open and she was pretty much flashing her bra at him. "Shit..." she muttered.

Cormac laughed and winked at her. While blocking her other strikes.

"Cormac..." Ari muttered as she went into 3 strikes, one after the other, and finally slashed his shirt and expertly disarmed him. "Payback."

He shrugged off his shirt, showing of his muscles. "Yeah, payback" He smiled.

Ari took the two ends of her top and tied them together, trying to make them something legible in front of this guy. Who happened to have a really nice pair of guns... Ari shook the thought from her head. "Yes, payback."

He felt a little sweat drip from his brow. He smiled, he was by now, glistening.

"Hah! I made you sweat!" Ari said, laughing. She wiped a little sweat from her eyebrow. "One more round of swords?" she asked him. He was one of the best opponents she had had in her life. Even though he sliced her favourite top open...

"Sure" He grinned, taking his position.

Ari knew he wasn't going to strike first. So, she struck the first blow, four one after the other, hearing the lovely clanks of metal.

She grazed his pec. He smiled. A little blood dripped from it. He struck at her thigh

((pec?))

Ari jumped away from his strike and hit him softly with the blunt side of her blade on his side.

((Umm... His breast really, but that would sound funny))

He laughed as the blood flow stopped a little.

((like pectorals? Breast does sound funny for a dude!))

Ari looked at the wound. She gasped. "Oh, I'm so sorry, Cormac!"

((yeah, pectorals))

He shrugged "That was nothing" He smiled.

Ari smiled back, still a bit worried. "Do you want to continue?" she asked, staring at his slightly bloodied chest.

"Of course, lassie!"

"Okay..." Ari said, reluctantly. "If you need to stop, just tell me..." She braced herself with the sword. "You strike first, since I injured you."

"C'mon, it's just a scratch" He laughs and swings the blade round powerfully.

Ari stepped out of the way, but the blade still managed to catch onto the knot that Ari had tied on her top, un-tying it again... "Again?" she muttered, moving her blade through a powerful shot to counterattack his blade.

He laughed, hearing the blades clang.

Ari and Cormac moved around the arena in sync with their blades, like a dangerous dance of war. The metal clang was the music. They were the dancers.
