There was only so long Gretchen was allowed to put off training until Devika became positively impossible to live with. The Naga had been a constant, irate stream of berating, verbal abuse for about a day and a half now, and Gretch had finally given in and made her way down to the training field.

She had hoped, maybe, she could get the upper hand in this relationship if she managed to out last her partner, but that seemed even more impossible now than it had when she'd first started trying to ignore her. She was, above all else, a force to be reckoned with. Loud, demanding, irritable, there really was only so much the Death could take before her own will slowly crumbled into nothing.

So here she was, appropriately brought to heel by a domineering partner, running through offensive drills with her staff against one of the many training dummies set up along the edge of the field.

It would have been better, or at least less boring, if she'd had a real opponent to face off against. She'd tried arguing this fact with Devika, pointing out that she was only going to learn so much from whacking on a dummy, but the Naga wasn't hearing any of it.

(If you ssspent lessss time with that man, you would not be ssssso behind on your practicssse.)

To this she could only sigh.

For the past few weeks, Wyatt's life had been nothing but s**t. Literally.

He was on latrine and custodial duty ever since being un-frozen, and it was growing tiresome. Siv had been pestering him to train, but the more she did, the less motivated he was to go out and do it. But once it came down to Siv questioning his manhood, then he had to show the b***h what's what on the training field.

With his untrusted shotgun in tow, he arrived to training ground ready to prove his worth. Apparently he wasn't alone - a woman with a staff was also on the grounds.

"Howdy," he waved as he approached.

The voice caught her off guard, and Gretchen turned suddenly, staff held out in front of her, to face the new comer with a startled blink. Then she smiled, genuine, if a little sheepish, before lowing the staff down to her side.

"Howdy your self." Her own drawl wasn't quite so pronounced, but it was clear she'd hailed from one of the southern states.

"Are you looking for a sparring partner?" It came out a little hopeful. Gretchen really didn't like the mindless repetition that came with whacking at the training dummies.

the end of her staff tap-tapped against the heel of the shoe on her fake foot as she waited for his answer.

Spar? Was this girl kidding? He had a shotgun in his hand and she was holding a staff. You don't bring a knife to a gun fight, and you sure as hell don't bring a staff.

"Ya sure about that?" he was hesitant, but she seemed to know what she was doing. More than he did, at any rate. He'll concede to that. "I reckon we can give it a go. Though careful, I'm a good shot and I'd hate to blow off that pretty face of yours."

<< Ugh. >> Siv Greatly Disapproves. (-15)

"How'd we begin?"

The girl's grin grew. "That's what our shields are for," she assured him. "And the wards." Her shoulders came up in a small shrug, but she brought Devika around again, reclaiming that two-handed grip as she sank into a more ready stance.

"I'd think'ya not to aim for my face though, s'one of my better assets." It didn't really matter. He could aim for her face all day and probably wouldn't be able to do much more than give her superficial injuries, but she would really rather avoid that, given the choice.

"We begin when you're ready, friend." Oh, that reminded her. "By the way, my names Gretchen."

Shields and wards - good to know. Damn, he was new to this s**t.

"Pleased to meet. The name's Wyatt," he introduced himself and tipped his hat as he made some distance between them and prepared for combat.

"Nice to meet'cha." After that she didn't waste much time. The Staff came up a little higher, and Gretchen kicked off against the patchy lawn as she rushed towards him.

He was kind of right. as a ranged fighter, he might have had the upper hand, but that was only if he managed to keep enough distance between them to get that barrel of his gun between them. If she kept close, that'd be difficult.

Closing the space between them, Gretchen aimed a solid swing at his legs, opening to sweep his feet right out from under him.

"Alright now, you can try to hit me with your best ssshhhh---," he started, only to be leg-swiped and fall to the ground a** first. "----iiiitt!"

In a jerk reaction, he fired his shotgun as he fell, aimed the best he could towards the girl - but without the preparation aiming normally required.

<< HAHAHAHA! >> Siv was radiating with joy, and Wyatt could sense it. Her joy, in fact, was pissing the living s**t out of him, and only fueled him some more. << I would apologize, but no. Your foolish cockiness deserves to be taken down a peg. >>

It was a very odd thing, having a shot gun aimed in your direction and fired. Gretchen gave a little surprised shriek, just natural reaction, as the blast took her in the chest, bu beyond the initial impact there wasn't the expected pain.

(Sssshield, ssstupid girl.)

Oh, right. She knew that.

Their shields were why she was willing to swinging the heavier end of her staff into Wyatt's side before he was even back on his feet. It was underhanded, she knew that, and she even felt a little guilty about it, but she still did it. Because in a real fight, her life would be on the line. She knew that now. It had been painfully obvious a number of times over her short stay on the island.

Gretchen didn't like violence, but she also didn't want to die.

"On your feet, cowboy."

"OW! Ya damn b***h," Wyatt groaned as he was hit in the side. Why did he sign on for this kind of abuse? His body was a temple. It should be worshipped for its beauty, not beaten with weaponry.

Meanwhile, Siv was cracking the ******** up. This was the best feeling she had ever had. Right here. This moment. << Oh, please, get hit in the balls next. I want to see you cry. >>

Their partnership wasn't very strong. Wyatt held up one hand as if to say one moment while he got back onto his feet and took a step back, sloppily and vulnerable as he did. He knew he would be dead in a real battle, so fired another round of his shotgun somewhat aimlessly as a weak measure of offensive play.

Red lips parted in an exaggerated gasp. "Language, sir." Gretchen was not in the habit of cussing, except on very rare occasions. That didn't mean she actually minded when other's did, lord knows she was friends with enough folk that swore like sailors, but she would give Wyatt a hard time for calling her a b***h, even if he didn't really mean it.

She watched him scramble up on his feet, firing off a round well over her head. It had her cocking a brow at him, smile broadening as she gave a very faint shake of her head in amusement.

With a giggle she gave him another whack with her staff on the arm. "Aim'ns a thing, cowboy."

The miss was an embarrassment, and then a hit to his arm with the staff really rubbed some salt into that wound. But the frustration seemed to fuel him at least a little to take this thing more seriously. "I'll show ya aimin'."

Take a step back, he held up his shotgun for a clear shot and fired towards the girl.

"Show me then, Cowboy." She was teasing him, but it was all light, all good natured. Gretchen wasn't the violent type, and she certainly wasn't the sort to p***k and poke at another person's pride for the sake of her own. These spars were essential, but that didn't mean they couldn't be fun, and it didn't mean they had to be unpleasant as well as violent.

He did show her though. The next blast took her in the chest, making her stagger back a few steps as she winced. "Yeah, that's definitely better," she groaned out, laughing as she straightened up again and adjusted her grip on her staff.

Devika was glowering in her head, and Gretch could hear the faint hiss of irritation. it had her moving forward with a quick step of her good leg, staff coming around in a wide, fast arch at the tall man's shoulder.

The hit to the shoulder caught Wyatt's off guard as he stumbled, struggling to maintain his footing. Show her? Damn right he'll show her. In attempt to cripple his opponent, he tilted his shotgun down and fired a cold-hearted short-range blast towards her kneecaps.

Well, now he was just playin' dirty. Gretchen gave a yelp when he fired at her knees, not so much from the sting of the shot, though that hurt as well, but the impact of Fear formed buckshot to her prosthetic. "Hey, easy!"

Sh brought the staff up defensively, automatically, swinging it like a club into the side of his chiseled jaw as she backed away from him.

"I need that to get around, ya know."
