Welcome to Gaia! ::

Clarissa saw this and dodged to the left. She aimed a punch at his head as her counterattack. True, she could work on blocking, but why block when you can just dodge?

She tilted her head to the side, and to spite him, she bit his arm. She didn't bite hard enough to draw blood, but enough to show that she could if she wanted.

'Cause hey, it was either that, or take the punch to the face and kick him in the groin.

Clarissa let go and stood back out of reach. She wore a weak grin and replied, "I give." She rubbed the side of her jaw and nearly pouted at the pain. Well I knew it was going to hurt. I should have been expecting something like that anyway. She walked up to him and looked like she was hesitating on doing something. "Umm," she reached around his waist and hugged him, "Thank you for this."

She moved back and looked down. Even though it hurt, it really was nice of him to train her. And he hadn't even been going all out on the mini-fight (if you could even call it that). Heh, she was happy to be hurt. Maybe I'm a masochist. Forgetting her morbid thoughts, she looked up with a slight smile. "So what do you think you'll do about fighting your brother? Or even the Agents?" She was a bit worried - now that Agent A talked to Saieve, would A simply wait to kill him? Was the Agent really all that sincere?

"Take his offer?" This was both very surprising and very worrisome. How could he really trust an Agent? Weren't they the people that were trying to kill them? "How can you trust him? I mean, he's just an Agent, it's not like he really has any authority, does he?" Saieve was one of the few people she could actually call a friend. She didn't want him hurt or killed (which he probably would if he went). I don't want to lose any friends.

In a tiny part of her heart, it was also for a selfish reason. She didn't want to be left alone. However, she understood the need to be with family, even if she never really felt that need. "What did he promise you?" And if you left, would that mean you'd fight us? Fight me?

"Hey Saieve," Korina announced. "C'mere. I wanna teach you something about that. Come over and put a hold on me, anything, and I'll make a very, very important point." Korina cracked her neck, then her knuckles. "Once we're done here, we probably have things to do, so let's not take forever about this."

Korina didn't struggle at all, allowing Saieve to immobilize her. Then Saieve felt something odd tingling around her - like electricity coming off her skin. Then there was a pulse - a very very strong push, and he went careening off of her, unable to hold on, spinning away off the walls. "That is why you must be very, very careful with anyone Sigil-empowered. I'd recommend hit-and-run tactics more than that, because once those new-comers figure out they can do things like this, they'll be tearing you up when you try grabs."

"I'll keep that one in mind," Elizabeth commented with a wry grin.

Jesse watched all of this going on while he sat quietly, thinking to himself that maybe it was a good idea to at least do some training before they all went into the field again. Without disturbing anyone else, he found himself a spot in the back of the room where there was a vacant heavy bag. He began punch training where he picked up a pair of weights of equal poundage, and began doing reps of jabs, hooks and straight punches, all of which seemed to be coming to him as natural as the air he breathed.

The sudden appearance of Saieve made him pause in his training for a bit. He had no idea as to what just happened, only that one of his friends came flying across the room. He gave him a look to see if he needed assistance, but was deffered when it was brought to his attention that this was a part of training. Shaking his head, he went back to what he was doing, letting the others continue how they were.
