Welcome to Gaia! ::

"You're right. A whip hardly describes them. Cords are thinner, shorter, easier to conceal, have hooks on the end to grab on to as you use an upraised leg to press your victim's throat into them. I know how to handle strangling cords. i can strangle, cut off circulation to a limb, tie someone up... and not much else. Now, if you're talking about the cutting wires, you're in a whole different novel. You can sever limbs, you can cut painfully into your victim, while still letting them heal..."She smiled, looking straight at Garret. "You can use them to remove someone's skin."

She heard the metal of the sharp wire start wrapping around her sword, and heard the wire hissing toward her ankles, as well. She quickly lifted one leg, and used her foot to stomp the wire into the ground. At the stomp, she started running in the direction the force of the pull was coming from. She threw herself into Laela, knocking the both of them onto the ground.

((It was going to be a headbutt, but Namen is less likely to miss when she uses her whole body. >.> ))

((AUGH sorry Rain, no one from your team is online. If they are, though, I wish they'd reveal themselves to us. >.> I'll go post the teams on the front page. Garreth will come back from the infirmary during the next post.))

Garret smiled at the comment. It was the smile that showed too many teeth, like that of a jackal baring its teeth. "Very useful indeed. Whoever does not train Miss Laela to her full potential might just be skinned by my own hand." And the same went with Namen and- Hell, alll of the students. But he felt that went without saying.

She stood up from the throw, rubbing at her shoulder, where she'd landed. That would be sore in the morning... Suddenly, she slammed hard to her knees. She was startled. However, after a moment, she could control atleast one leg. She put it in position to make herself stand, but her other knee stayed rooted to the spot. She frowned. Those wires were pesky, that was for sure. She grabbed one, and started trying to pull Laela down, but Namen never did quite have the strength to use any kind of force.

Garreth was making his way back down from the school. He stood beside Rain, who was sitting and watching the spar. "A shame most of your team is skipping out and one is passed out." he sighed.

Rain sighed and looked up at Garreth, her dark blue eyes studying him for a moment. "I know Headmaster. I wish I knew where they where." She showed a little disappointment on her face as she looked back to the spar but it soon faded away into her calm mask that she almost always wore.

((headin off for the night guys, sorry. See ya tomorrow))
