╔══════════════════════════╗ Kieran spoke absently, more to herself but also to the girl now standing beside her, as her Lithuanian accent became more apparent, "The instructor does not understand. Understanding anyone's aura is what makes their weaknesses apparent. If you learn without seeing, then there is no point. She cannot keep such a feat up now that she is bolstered."
The girl turned to her left and was taken aback. "I am sorry!" she cried, her left hand falling to place on her sheathed blade while her right shot out to the woman. "As the instructor has just said, this is the physical classroom that you are apart of. It is a pleasure to have you-" she cut off, forgetting for a moment she did not know the girl's name. "I am Kieran Ripley," she responded instead, her arm still outstretched to grab but her body bending downward in a small bow. "It is very nice having you here."
Kieran turned her head to watch the fight ensue below them, aware that Josiah was rounding the bend that lost them their fight earlier. She was unbidden to drop in, protecting the boy with her abilities, and thus she stayed put. She rather hoped he would not go head to head with the woman, as Kieran saw her muscles bulge as the spikes from Josiah's shield skewered her slightly. She made herself stronger by physical damage. Nothing Josiah could do to her would halt her progression now.

Alyona frowned lightly, Squishy? What kind of nickname or way of calling anyone was that? But she kind of ignored that comment and simply heard how she was in the right place and that she should start taking a seat to await other classmates, she nodded and watched intently before hearing the words of the male down in the ring and his taunts towards the female who Alyona had now labelled as their teacher. It was almost amusing to her yet not such an emotion showed upon her face as she shook her head lightly.
Alyona noticed that Kieran was speaking, listening to her but didn't say a thing, just in case as she kind of guessed it wasn't words thrown at her, and her hunch was correct when she heard the apology which made her jump a little - it was a bit sudden for her as she wasn't too clear on what she was apologizing for but either way, she decided to accept it anyway despite not knowing the reason.
The silver haired maiden looked down at the female's right hand before grasping it lightly with a small shake, she listened to what the brunette had to say and the confirmation that this was the right room. The sudden cut off of her speech caused a little confusion in Alyona as she was about to chime in with some words and a self introduction but noticed that Kieran had already done so as she heard her name and noticed the bow. Alyona wasn't sure what to do at this point as she bowed her head lightly in response before speaking, "Nice to meet you, Kieran, and my name would be Alyona Larson." She spoke in a not too serious tone, she didn't want to scare off the other female by coming off as too serious.
The golden eyed female looked down at their hands and withdrew hers quickly, "I um... It's a pleasure to meet you... again... and thanks for the confirmation." She spoke as she scratched the back of her head lightly with her left hand, acting a little awkward but not so awkward as before as she looked to her armored arm as used the hand that was scratching the back of her head to wipe off what she'd written - which was basically where she was for her lesson. Alyona glanced to the side and watched what was happening in the ring again as she was simply intrigued before looking about.
"Seats... seats..." She muttered softly to herself, as though immersed in her own world as she saw them and started walking over to them before looking to Kieran, "May I... suggest sitting to watch?" She asked, well offered, trying to stay polite and not sound awkward which was definitely failing her, not having social contact with others for a long while was no good for this woman as it felt a little draining to her. In her head though, she was mentally commanding herself to act more natural.

Cass shrugged at Kieran's words. "Weaknesses don't matter. In a duel between two people, no one works on someone's weaknesses. Between two warriors, there is a certain honor to be upheld by both parties." She jumps up and holds her fist into the air. "A true battle between two warriors needs no thought! A true battle between two warriors needs no strategy! True battle is fought with fists and strength, not words and thinking! This boy has it! You can see it in his eyes!" Cass laughed as she looked at Josiah, something akin to admiration in her eyes. "The thirst for battle! The want to beat your opponent until they give in! The cringing need for a harsh influx of hormones to excite and compel you further! No sting of pain stops such beautiful movement!" She grins wildly and nods. "I daresay I'm beginning to like you! However, listen up for one second, then we'll continue."
She took out one of her knives and removed her jacket, tossing it out of the ring. "I'm sure by now you've deduced that my aura works with damage taken, forcing my strength higher and changing my body to accommodate such strength. However..." She points the knife at Josiah and draws an infinity symbol in the air. "... So far, I've not found a limit on how high my strength will go, and I've done some wicked things to hit that cap. There's a reason back when I fought that I was called the Infinity Fighter, and that's because I would grow in strength during matches and never cease gaining strength until I had forcefully shut down my aura. As for weaknesses..." She shrugs and frowns. "I suppose if you can outdamage my growth, I'd die... Also poison seems to shut down my aura before it starts, although I wont die from poison. Not any that I've tried, anyways."
She moves her sleeve up to show a wicked scar to Josiah, circling her left shoulder. "Some people do scary things to gain power. I had this arm taken off just to see if I can survive it, and I did. Yanked it right out with a truck." She rolls back down her sleeve and grins, holding out her arms. "Can you say you've done the same?!? Give your all to gain power?!? Can you stand solemn in front of such dedication!?!? My life is fighting!! My life is combat!!" Cass seemed a bit crazy in her speech, but she was clearly enjoying herself. She sheathes her knife once more and nods to Josiah. "Under my tutelage, you will get your battle! You will get your fighting! It wont be easy, but I think you'll enjoy it. Looking at you now is so much more pleasing than earlier. Words are meaningless, Josiah! All that matters are mine and your fists and brawn, meeting head on in a battle of wills!"
She suddenly dropped into a low stance, a wild look in her eyes. "Prepare yourself! I'm not holding back anymore! I wont kill you, but I also wont pull punches!" That said, she dove forward with speed and strength able to move the entire ring simply by moving forward, and she aimed a flat him with her forearm broadly against his chest. This wouldn't damage him very much, but what it would do was send him flying back against the ropes of the ring, which would pinball him back into her and cause him to bounce off of her rigid frame if her first hit landed.

||"Go ahead, call me a b*****d...!!"||
【!!D A N G E R!!】▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂
Josiah listened to the two's conversation for a bit. Callisara's commentary left much to be desired, however he did feel a semblance of a companionship or comradery with the words she spoke. The energy in which she expressed them. The burning spirit that pumped and coursed in his veins, it felt as if there was another system within him trying to overcharge him. He felt the energy. From her and from him. As this old feeling with a new situation told him to fight on he took into consideration her words. His teeth were bared as his batte lust grew. It was a fresh feeling to him, this rush and pump. M
Hearing that fight would continue he smirked "I'd say that you have a stronger aura than mine. Mostly cause I don't have as many years on mine as you do."He chuckled as her speech about her ability's call back. He wasn't one much for backstory, but he listened to it "I don't have much of a nickname to my ability. Just have it and use it."He cracked his neck as he readied himself. The scar on her shoulder made him question the bounds she went for battle. Then it made him wonder if he could go all out...
"I'm not like you, I'm just a guy who loves his family enough to get stronger for them. The blood that runs through my veins and screams to be used in battle is just that, my blood! I'll get stronger, it doesn't matter how much blood I shed for that--my passion will always make more. I'm just a human, down to the marrow of my ******** bones! Now are you gonna shut it or you gonna come at me and show me some of that ferocity I've been hearing about!"
As she proclaimed her life being combat Josiah began to feel more and more in to this fight. Josiah thought about not holding back anymore. He wouldn't have to. A thought that made him wonder. What would it feel like if he just let go all out.
He feel like he didn't get to do that with Kieran by playing the defensive game with her speed. He looked to Kieran for a moment and winked, giving a coy point as if to say 'Watch me'. As Cass rushed the boy his body felt the rush once more, he bash sent him towards the ring's rope--but he didn't take it lying down. As he returned to the woman from the rope's ricochet, he created a large blade off his leg, attempting to delver a roundhouse mid air as returned to her. He let out a warcry as he did so.
Callisara Draciun The Infinity Fighter Boost 200% ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Cass grins as her blow hits as intended, watching him sail back against the ropes. When he used the momentum to come back at her, she gave him a slight look of satisfaction before quite literally catching the kick right in the side of her abdomen, her arms locking and holding the leg in place. She looked to him as she held his leg in place, that same wild smile on her face. "Oho... Trying to kill me now? That could have been fatal... Well, for anyone not me..."
At her words, her aura exploded as Cass essentially doubled in strength, the skin on her arms and legs darkening and showing blood vessels pushed to the surface of her skin due to the muscular expansion. Her pupils dilated as her eyes became bloodshot, the woman actually getting kinda scary to look at. Her aura was downright imposing at this point, the ridiculous power almost making it seem like her aura was a separate entity that merely inhabited her body. "Well, well... Been a while since I got this strong... However, someone didn't listen to the lecture, and as your teacher, that pains me..."
She continued holding his leg and grinned darkly. "So, to make sure you listen this time..." She increases pressure on his leg to a painful level, squeezing his knee and ankle tightly. "You have roughly... Umm... I'd say twenty seconds before your knee dislocates and your ankle will probably break. Two choices on how to get out of this. You can either make me relinquish my grip, or..." She gets a sly grin on her face. "You can give me a compliment. Make it really good, too. I'll know if you're cheesing it." She giggles and shakes her head. "Oh, and you have to remove both hands, because either one will prevent any comfortable walking. Time starts... NOW!!!" With that, her grip began crushing his ankle and knee, her giving him a dark stare as she continued.
Beth entered the class quietly and set her bags down by the entrance as she watched the spectacle of a girl relentlessly beating a larger boy and forcing him into a leg lock. How all this started the brunette had no idea but she found it amusing and even a bit interesting, enough so that she stepped forward and leaned against the ropes surrounding the ring to get a closer look. Whoever the boy was he was tenacious but severely underestimated his opponent, that kind of behavior got you killed ...at least if you couldn't buckshot your way out of the fight. "Break the leg" she whispered as she unzipped the jacket she wore over her dress and gripped the ropes tightly as her pupils shrank and her more violent side began to surface "Bend it the way it's not supposed to go!" She practically shouted

╔══════════════════════════╗ Kieran turned from the fight yet again, her grey orbs peering to the girl now known as Alyona. It was an interesting name, one she had never heard before, and she smiled kindly.
"Thank you," she replied, leaving the metal railway to sit.
It was a nice spot, it sitting down gingerly before peering down to the ring. Kieran watched the fight, her eyes still fluttering back and forth, before Josiah was finally caught. She sighed, her ability no longer needed, as the teacher's skin turned in pigmentation. She barely gave mind to the newcomer, though she continued to watch.
"How has your first, and now second, day been?" she asked the girl next to her.

A rather small light-haired boy scrambled in through the door. Kotu's wide eyes looked around nervously at all the people in the room. It was intimidating and he wasn't even sure if he was in the right place at all. He was a frail looking kid with a small frame. He stood like an animal caught in the headlights for a moment before finally speaking. "I-I'm in teacher Callisara's class right?" he asked gripping the bottom of his loose shirt, a habit. He looked at anyone to give him an answer. He couldn't read very well so he had tried his best to memorize the way here. Some people looked like they were fighting and it frightened him. Was he gonna have to fight too? He couldn't. He could only run and hide.

"I just want everyone to be happy. If everyone is happy then people won't hurt people anymore."
Zero was gonna be Zero again today. Felt like this would go ahead and be the face his classmates would get to know. Well, get to know first anyway. Being in a class with these people meant that he'd eventually have to show off his shapeshifting ability but he'd just put that off for as long as possible. There was also a good chance that the instructor knew about it. This was affirmed by how "that woman" already knew about his favoring of small knives. That aside, Zero was pretty easygoing so he'd probably not butt heads with too many people at first. When he stepped in through the door and say the fighting ring, he began to have some serious regrets. Maybe it would have been better if he picked a face that was better suited for fighting. Well he was here now so this was it. He stretched his arms a bit and noticed a small white haired male standing nearby with his eyes fixed on a couple people fighting. He just slipped off behind the male and took a seat nearby. He just continue to quietly spectate until someone addressed him and his needlessly tardy entrance.

Alyona took her seat with Kieran but continued to watch the fight as well as she blinked a couple of times in astonishment, was this teacher actually serious with this? The white haired female couldn't even utter a word at all about the current issue at hand as she seemed way too caught up in this before hearing the words of a new addition to the class whose words made her almost want to laugh but instead she simply commented, "Seems someone is enjoying this immensely." She spoke with a small chuckle escaping her lips after commenting, how odd, then again, this school was odd to her completely - compared to being home schooled, any sort of school environment confused her and this kind of just made that impression on her of what all schools should be like.
The questioned asked by Kieran caught Alyona a little off guard as she seemed to be getting into the little fight at hand but still answered her question, "Oh uuh... A bit here and there, been a little lost actually." She spoke honestly, scratching the back of her head lightly, "I have a really crappy sense of direction..." She muttered under her breath, not realizing what she had said aloud as well as didn't even acknowledge that she even said anything at that point as she glanced to Kieran, "And what about yours?" She questioned the female.
That was when the female heard a question that was similar to the one she had asked not too long ago as she turned to see where the voice came from to see the small light-haired male. "Ah, yeah, indeed it is." She spoke with a nod towards the male as she noticed another one enter but wasn't sure of what to say so she simply turned back to the fight and fell silent, still listening out for Kieran's response to her question.

||"Go ahead, call me a b*****d...!!"||
【!!D A N G E R!!】▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂
Josiah smirked, but beyond that the hidden snarl under breath with his annoyance grew. Cass's ultimatum didn't do much for him. More or less it didn't bring anything to the table for him. He spat on the mat, signifying his disgust with the matter.
If his leg was getting broken, it would be very unfortunate for him--but it was the principal on which he stood on. It didn't allow that sort of defeat. Josiah wouldn't back down. And the voices in the stands didn't really cheer him on, regardless of the situation Josiah felt that his pride would be broken either way. He hated surrender. Hated that ultimatum. To be broken in his will or his body. The latter seemed more palatable to him. If anything it was his will that made him fight. His will to survive. His will to make his family happy. The will to protect. The will to fight on. As the moment in which he had these thoughts were merely half seconds, he stared at Cass. His eyes beating with rage and battlelust
"For a kindred spirit, I doubt this is how you show it. " Josiah hissed out as his leg still pushed forward. His shielding waning for the time he was in the lock. "I guess I'm taking..."He tightened his body. Making note of the distance of how far the rest of the class was. His arms enclosed around his chest. His barrier pulsing with energy, the boy sent out a flurry of spikes from his body, a barrage of invisible spike--only hinted by the slight gleam they gave off. All directed toward the teacher
"I'll rather have the broken leg--cause I rather keep fighting!!"He exclaimed as he sent the almost 6 meter long dagger-like protrusions from his shield.
Beth grinned, so that guy had some spirit in him even though he seemed so hopelessly outmatched, now that was some rock hard resolve! Still the fight could always be a little more entertaining if Beth herself wasn't going to jump in. The brunette looked around to make sure no eyes were on her and, when satisfied nobody was watching, held an arm behind her back as the sharp point of a bone construct pierced through the flesh of her palm. The bone grew outward into the unmistakable angular shape of a tanto knife before Beth broke it off with her free hand, examined it for a moment, and threw it into the ring next to the outclassed male fighter. She stood there, grinning still as she bounced on the balls of her feet with excitement. "Take it" she whispered "Come on take it, swing at her and face her like a man" Honestly she didn't care who won really, she just wanted things to pick up or she'd have to personally step in and make things very interesting.
Callisara Draciun The Infinity Fighter Boost 215% ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Cass merely smiled to him as he started speaking. "Oh, believe me, we are more than kindred... We are of one mind, Josiah..." She grunted as his leg pushed forward, this digging the blade deeper and urging out more blood from the educator. "Hnngg... I'll give you this, that actually does hurt..."
Then she felt it, the shift in his aura as he moved it into a different area than his body. Her eyes darted around as she looked to the gleaming spikes and grinned as he launched them. She quickly pulled away, gently flicking his knee as she held it and very likely dislocating it with the ridiculous strength that was simply in her fingers at this point. She moved back slowly, using flat-handed strikes against the blades to steer them away from her, the majority of them knocked safely away. She still caught a couple in her shoulders and arms, making a soft wince and grunt each time one did.
After the attack, she smiled softly to him and nodded. "Someday, we'll fight side by side against impossible odds, you and I. Hopefully by then, you'll be on par with me so you don't make me look like a bad teacher. However, for now, I have a class to teach and students to greet and minister to. If you still wish to continue..." She tugs a small vial from her pocket and grins, the green liquid within thickly gurgling. "Find me afterwards, and we'll have a true battle as equals. No auras. Simply two warriors using the tools they were born with, and nothing more." She pockets the vial and hums, crossing her arms. "Because at this point, are you enjoying yourself? Wouldn't you rather fight me when it's possible for you to win?" She then caught herself and grinned. "Ahhh, that makes me sound like a b***h, but it's the facts. At yous current level, you cannot best me like I am. My power will only grow higher, and you can barely dent me now as I am. Wouldn't you rather have a chance? Even if you believe in your own power, you will know when there are insurmountable odds, and you will retreat to train yourself to conquer them, as any good warrior should!"
Cass crossed her arms and closed her eyes, suddenly shouting to everyone in the class. "Listen up, children! Under my tutelage, you will get sparse breaks! You won't get sympathy! You will be hurt! You may even be greatly damaged! These are merely signs that my teachings are working! I will not go easy on you! You want an easy class? Go b***h to Alice to move you to Damon's class. I don't teach critical thinking, I teach battlefield tactics! I don't teach nonviolent ways to beat opponents, I teach aggressive combat anyone can learn to love! Feel the endorphin rush through your blood and power you further!" She dug her fist into her open palm and grinned. "Those of you that don't want this course, leave now! Open the door and exit! I don't have time to waste with those that pussyfoot around! If you want my guidance on how to crush your opponents, then proudly declare your name! Right this moment! Let your classmates know just who you are! Let them know you thirst for the sting of fatigue, the ache of broken bones, and the exhilaration of seeing your enemies lying bleeding upon the ground!"
She takes a step back and grins wildly, her face almost that of a person insane with excitement. "I am Cassandra Velisae Dracuin! I yearn for not students, but battle compatriots! Who are you all?!?"

【!!D A N G E R!!】▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂▂
Josiah hollered, his leg being dislocated forcibly was not the most pleasant pain, not like he had dealt with serious injury before. The worst he had still lied with the times of adventuring with his father. Broken limbs, concussions, and testing the body's limit against the environment... Josiah had begun to pant after he released his shield in that spectacle of power. The shield had drop and any blood that was left on it dropped on the mat. Gripping his leg he stared at the students in the crowds. He felt weak again. Not fit for the world of auras. Not like this sort of man that ached in a fashion befitting a broken dog. He felt at a lost. However the battle was...appetizing enough. His barrier blocked most of the hit from girl's attack. However it still dislocated, yet not at the force she predicted.
He begun to laugh at her offer of fighting again. It was more of a laugh of acceptance, his quietness afterwards was punctuated with a determined. Almost 'older-than-beyond-his-years' focus and will. Josiah, if anything had a strong will and thought behind him. However the prospect of the. His panting had an air of heat from it. Like a wild berserker on the field of that battle his battle lust was showing to her, and her alone. That moment of his boldfaced desire and will was an acceptance to her challenge. Josiah cared little about that woman's offer to fight by each other's side or making her look good. She hadn't earned his full respect just yet.
"We'll see."He popped his leg back into it's socket, doing it with a rather....familiar tone."I guess that's how it is then, heh " He dashed back into the stands, taking the stack of books he came in with--he stood next to no one. standing at the far side of the room staring at the teacher with a bit of wildness to him. His pride was broken again. Something that seemed reoccurring for him. Made it want to kill himself over the embarrassment. He begun to read the books in solitude, trying to better understand his abilities further for research. If anything he needed it more than anyone else.
He felt a bit broken again, but more a mixture of will clashing with self consciousness. it felt like a tormenting maelstrom preying on his self esteem. He wondered if Kieran would've fared better. He need to get stronger.
So the fight ended up being boring anyway. How sad, though some blood was spilled so at least that was something. Still the teacher seemed the most honest and interesting person in the room, calling for people who loved the thrill of battle and the sight of bloodied enemies lying at their feet. Beth smiled yet again as she lifted the ropes surrounding the ring and stepped onto the mat. "My name is Birdie!" She thumped a fist against her chest as she looked directly at the teacher "I've studied the crane style for years and I'm a very capable fighter! " She narrowed her eyes and placed her hands on her hips as she faced her classmates"I've also taken over two dozen lives, all of them quite nastily and for very good reason. If ANY of you have a problem with that then speak up and we can settle our little differences right here"
