Roch weaved to the right then came upwards, jabbing the dagger straight into the mannequin's throat before dodging its blow and jerking back. There was adrenaline rushing through his veins and the punk boil was practically bouncing as he adjusted his hold on the dagger slightly. Yeah, he was starting to get this. This distance--this was what he wanted. Maybe he could get a tiiiiiny bit closer--

It was back to a staring battle between Edel and the dummy, the ghoul slowly pacing around her opponent, her movements being matched by it. She had over-calculated it when she lashed out at the dummy, resulting in a very lame strike where she did not even come close to scratching the doll. It was almost funny that what she had done was mirrored by the dummy almost immediately, and again, they stood staring at each other from a distance apart, unable to break the impasse. They could both go for it and take damage or stay where they were. And of course, the choice was for Edel to make.

YOU HAVE MY SWORD!

Their swords clashed a few more times, until the dummy, who didn’t seem to tire out, edge the ghost a little. With its speed never waning, the dummy was able to go through the slimer’s defenses, and placed a decent cut along the slimer’s arm. Thankfully, it wasn’t the same arm the ghost was attacking with.

The successful attack also showed an opening which the slimer took, and returned the favor, cutting at the dummy’s arm as well. They were again pretty even at this round, a hit for a hit, though the ghost did cut a little deeper.

It had to be done sooner or later.

Edel lunged forward at the dummy, fully aware that it would return her blow for every bit of its worth. She could not be afraid this time, and instead she focused every bit of her fibre into dealing as much damage as possible to make it worthwhile. It might have been a poor strategy on hindsight, but she was eager for it to end. There was a satisfying stab wound where the dummy's right eye should have been; Edel stepped back to admire her work while clutching her throbbing and bruised arm.

The next few moments would decide whether that sacrifice was worth it.

YOU HAVE MY SWORD!

The slimer lowered his sword, its tip touching the ground. The sword was getting heavier as time passed, and swinging it became more daunting, especially when the opponent was as relentless as it was from the start of the battle.

The slimer and the mannequin, but it had usually involved the ghost just blocking or deflecting the attack away from him. The shock of the swords clashing was becoming unbearable, and he could feel it along his forearms.
He knew he had to finish this soon.

Time seemed to move slowly within that short moment before what would decidedly be the last strike.

Edel breathed in slowly, reflecting upon Cybele's words once again. Everything became clear at that moment, what she was supposed to do. The first day's lesson on meditation was recalled and the lesson learnt was being put into practice right then. On the second day, she knew what it meant and felt like for it to be put into application amidst a fight. It was slowly coming together now, culminating it that last moment of preparation before the execution. Her thoughts were laid out for her calmly – find the opponent's weakness and strike when the time was right.

She was ready for it, to deal the final blow.

He was getting too cocky. Roch moved a bit closer, hitting the mannequin with the elbow of his opposite arm before slamming the dagger into him again-- It was only thanks to a trick he'd learned from Invi's class that he managed to escape the dagger heading straight for him.

Roch dropped to a crouch then came up a foot away with a jump. Well, it was actually more of a scramble. But he liked to think of it as a jump.

The slimer gathered all the energy he had left, and went on an offensive barrage of attacks. He swung at the mannequin nearly at every angle, few lunges here and there, and successfully landed a hit when the mannequin was recovering from a block it did. He swung hard it its sword, and then lunged forward, piercing the leathery hide of the mannequin.

But the mannequin wasn’t dead. The ghost was wide open, and it lifted its sword and thrusts its weapon forward, cutting the ghost at its side.
The slimer took a few steps back and looked at the cut.

“Touche.” He chuckled.

The sound of a pin drop could be heard.

It was surreal, the lucidity of that moment. She spotted it immediately, the perfect opening for her attack. As she headed in, she could see the dummy's change in its stance and from its slightest shifts of its body, she could read the dummy's intended movements. She dodged. It was almost funny how obvious everything seemed right then, in that state of divine concentration and heightened awareness. She even had the time to relish the sense of achievement for going what had been the most startlingly enlightening of lessons on War. All that was left was to follow through the plan, and drive the dagger right into the dummy's heart.

The motionless doll hit the ground with a resounding thud.

Edel stood still for a moment, taking everything in. Slowly, the world faded back to normal, most noticeably in the form of the throbbing pain from the injuries and bruises she had sustained. The fatigue. Her grip had stiffened around the hilt of the dagger and she had to slowly work her fingers off. It had been a lesson full of surprises, only now did she realise that she had overcome her initial reservations of a close-quarters fight, learned how to spot and dodge an opponent's attacks and manage an adept use of the dagger, she had gained a greater understanding of Cybele's teachings thus far.

A great accomplishment for her today? She would think so.

Returning the dagger to the rack and helping to drag the dummy back into the pile, Edel gave Cybele a deep bow before shuffling off for the dorms. She would continue with the rest of the activities for the day later, but first, some well-deserved rest.

The mannequin returned the favor as it charged towards the slimer. It swung or more like hacked downwards at the ghost with several strong strikes. The slimer held his weapon above him with both hands, and blocked them all successfully, but at a price. As the dummy withdrew from its position, the ghost dropped its weapon because its forearms were hurting horribly.

The dummy took advantage of this, and charged once more. It leapt up in the air with its weapon above its head. The ghost wasn’t defenseless at all. The slimer had rolled towards it weapon just as the mannequin left its feet, and raised the sword above him just as the dummy was landing towards him. The mannequins weight as enough that the sword had cut through the leather and through its body.

The dummy still fell on the ghost, but the slimer had braced for it, and was flat on his back unhurt, and a victor.

"Ole!"

He lost his balance from the jumping backwards--landing wrong could do that. Flailing ever so slightly--an unfamiliar thing for the punk boil, Roch watched with wide eyes as the mannequin shot in, stabbing him in the gut. It was only thanks to his FEAR shield that he wasn't bleeding like a stuck pig.

And Roch didn't even manage to get a hit back in return, he thought irritably as he regained his balance, crouching and tightening his hold on his dagger for a second before deliberately loosening it once again. Choking the dagger was no way to get a good hit in.

"Remember, kid, if you really want to do some damage, aim--"

Roch gritted his teeth as he recalled Fang's words and raced in, dodging the dagger that was heading for him, then twisting his entire body and shoving the dagger straight up so it slammed into the bottom part of the mannequin's jaw, right next to the throat.

The mannequin stumbled backwards, almost dragging Roch with it as it fell to the floor, unmoving. Roch slipped the dagger out of the body and looked at it curiously for a long moment. Sure he'd tried making a knife earlier that week, but this was a properly made one.

He sighed and headed over to the weapons rack, returning it to its rightful place before heading for the elevator. His work there was done.

The draugr was growing more and more frustrated with each swing of his blade. This was not going well at all; his own Fear shield was weakening while the mannequin remained sturdy as ever.

He gave pause, forced himself to calm down. Forced himself to find his center, to meditate for the briefest moment before he opened his eyes and readied himself for his next attack.

Another weak hit. Herryk grit his teeth, the muscles in his jaw clenching. What was he doing wrong? Why was he not connecting with the mannequin the way he should? The only solace was that he was able to avoid being hit in return.

Perhaps another tactic would work.

Herryk moved into a crouch, aiming low. The muscles beneath his dark skin moved fluidly as he moved into a leap. It was graceless and the draugr plummeted to the ground, cracking his head into the base of the mannequin.

Okay, so jumping blindly at his target would not work well for him. Rolling to his feet, Herryk took a few steps back as he pondered his next attack.
