YOU HAVE MY SWORD!

Danny was on the offense now, looking for openings once more instead of constantly glancing back at the edge. Now she could put her full attentions on the dummy- it was her turn to do some damage!

She didn't really do much though. A scratch here, a parry there. Overall, she was holding her ground. It was still an improvement from being pushed over the edge- she really didn't want to become a laughing stock. They were exchanging blows back and forth, neither really gaining ground on the other.

It was a standstill, saving for a small hit to the dummy's leg performed by Danny. She was growing used to the sword in her hands, in small increments. Her instructor Tobias would have been proud! He was a seedy old man who never thought anything was good enough. He was likeable, but when he was instructing you it felt like you were trapped in a box of rookie skills. Danny had nagged him to learn the more useful techniques, but her parents had kept her on a strict ceremonial-moves only schedule. She could hear him tutting her now for having a leg bent too far out or having her arm stretched the wrong way.

In all seriousness, Danny was never very good with the sword. She knew the moves, but had no emotion for it. It wasn't like watching Roch play his guitar every day, or watching Rikki practice with his chains in the gym. She just didn't like utilizing other instruments when she could burn it all down with her fists. Perhaps this was what Cybele meant by being trapped by their FEAR. She needed to learn new things too.

YOU HAVE MY DAGGER!

Shaking his head, he moved closer once more to try striking again. The mannequin blocked once more but this time around, Shun managed to evade out of the way of the counter attack.

This was starting to take too long, he felt.

He quickly shook his head at that thought. No, he mustn't get hasty here. Doing so will likely lead to mistakes that could have been easily avoided. While he still had a moment here, he quickly rolled a few of his joints to loosen himself up a little more. He needed his mobility against this.

YOU HAVE MY SWORD!

Danny took yet another side back, and both she and the mannequin paused. They were at a standstill for a moment, both focusing and looking for an opening. Danny was panting lightly from the effort, but it was nothing she couldn't handle.

However, Danny was more easily distracted than the dummy. Her eyes caught Rikki's black and orange eyes, and her guard dropped. She let out a cheer and shouted, "C'mon Rikki you can do it!" She waved and laughed, turning back to her own dummy.

It was too late. The dummy had seized the opportunity and was lunging at her, completely smacking her across the chest with its sword. She fell to the ground, sword clattering beside her in a completely dramatic way. "Hey!" she said sitting up. The dummy was playing dirty! Well she'd just have to return it, wouldn't she...

YOU HAVE MY BOW!

The mannequin was on the move again, but luckily the black dog was ready. Though really, he expected this thing to move more quickly like it had in the forest the other day. Instead it was only shuffling forward at a slow pace. Which, he supposed he should be thankful for. After all, if it were like the other day, he'd probably have lost to it before he could even draw the second arrow.

"That's right. Just move slowly..." He murmured as he took aim.

Even if the mannequin was moving at a slow pace, just knowing that it could get here, before he could take it out was nerve wracking. He didn't want to lose. Not to something that was deemed for little kids and certainly not in front of the rest of his classmates.

Feeling the pressure, the black dog tensed a little, before he let the arrow fly from the bow. A mistake on his behalf. Because he hadn't kept a calm mind and instead let his nerves get the batter of him, the arrow glanced off the mannequin, without causing any harm to it. It did however, have enough force behind it to knock it back a few more feet. Which, he couldn't really explain how that worked, but he wasn't going to complain about it either.

YOU HAVE MY SWORD!

Danny quickly rolled out the way, dodging the dummy's sword. She watched the arm go up a second time, and quickly rolled away once more. Damn thing was going to be the end of her!

Luckily the second time it got stuck in a crack in the boards, and Danny used the time to pick up her sword and get the jack out of the way. The dummy finally got the sword out and swiped at her once. s**t, looks like theb battle was still pretty evenly matched.

If Herryk had need to draw breath, he would have taken a long, calming one. As it was, the draugr found himself closing his eyes for a brief moment in time. He would find his center, and try again. No frustration. No anger.

His next attack made contact - the damage done was minor, but Herryk couldn't help the grin that creased his lips.

The Mannequin lashed out at him, but Shun managed to shift back, clipping the arm of the thing as he did so. Maybe... just maybe he could get in close enough to land a final blow onto it.

YOU HAVE MY BOW!

Though the arrows were knocking the mannequin back one by one, it wasn't enough to stop it. He was going to have to riddle this thing full of arrows before it was going to stop moving. Which he might be able to do, but only if he managed to keep a cool head. Getting all worked up wasn't going to do him any favors.

Taking in another unneeded breath, the black dog raised the bow once more, drawing the string back and sliding the shaft up along the thick limb of the bow. It was tiring, but he managed to hold the string back, while holding the arrow firmly in place by the nock. Once he was sure he had a sure shot, he let it fly. Listening with perked ears as the sharp whistle trailed after the arrow. Which thankfully, was followed by another 'thunk.'

It hit and right in the mannequin's head. Unfortunately, there wasn't enough force behind this one to stop the mannequin's advance. It still moved as though there were no arrow currently sticking out of the front of its head.

"Tsk..."

YOU HAVE MY SWORD!

The mannequin finally got her (his?) sword unhitched and began swinging it in Danny's direction once more. She wiped some dirt off her face and took a defensive stance. Perhaps a more defensive approach would help? Danny was used to just all out offense.

She was ~learning.~

Danny swung her sword like a bat still, fending off the dummy's weaker blows. "C'mon stupid thing!" she said, kicking it in the shins to disable it, "Why won't you just die!" Was she getting frustrated? Maaaybe.

YOU HAVE MY DAGGER!

While his opponent didn't seem to have an obvious weak spot, Shun decided to take a gamble and aim somewhere that would usually be effective in taking something down. Letting out a slow breath, he gripped onto the dagger before making his move.

Rushing forth, he quickly shifted to one side as his target began to strike. As he moved, he swapped the blade to his left hand and stabbed it into the mannequins head. Moving away, he pulled the weapon out and watched the thing collapse to the ground. Closing his eye, the reaper relaxed himself, then looked around at the others to see how they were doing. During his fight, he hadn't been paying them much attention and all.

Apparently the dummy didn't like getting hit very much. I know, who'd have thought, right?

It bent down low to the ground, and Danny completely fell for the trick. She lunged towards it to try and land a fatal blow to its back, but the stupid mannequin rose up and slashed her across the stomach.

Danny fell backwards, completely duped. Stupid mannequin! She saw Edel fighting a dummy in the background and grimaced. If the ice witch could do it, so could she! Danny got up, ready to fight once more.

YOU HAVE MY BOW!

Sighing the black dog drew another arrow and tugged the string back.

It was still quite a distance away from where he currently stood, so he still had time before it reached him. But how much of that time would be need to bring it down and would it be enough? The black dog wasn't sure, but he was determined to see this through.

Releasing the string, the arrow shot forward. Unfortunately, like the second he had shot before, it did nothing more than knock the crudely made animated object back. It was a pity, but he supposed he should be thankful that the stray arrow did something at all, instead of well, nothing.

They were at evens and odds. Danny blocked a hit to the left, the dummy dodged a hit to the right. At one point, Danny narrowly dodged an arrow that someone had sent flying at a dummy across the room. Everything was chaos.

Herryk steadied himself, tightening his grip on the hilt of the sword. The weight of it was off and in turn it was throwing his balance off, as well. Even still, Herryk did the best that he could - this was no crafted blade tailored for his size and weight.

With a slow, fluid movement, Herryk attacked again. The hit glanced off the mannequin, but he was growing more and more accurate with each attack.

YOU HAVE MY SWORD!

Now the dummy landed a hit to Danny's shoulder, and she was starting to feel the real power of the mannequin. These "toys" were a lot stronger than they let on!

Danny took a few steps back, still focused and circling the dummy, but taking a moment to check her shoulder. She rolled it, tilting her head and wincing a little in the pain. It was still attached. She'd be fine.
