YOU HAVE MY DAGGER! Rikki was so wrapped up in the pain in his cheek that he made a stupid move. He lunged forward without waiting for an opening and the dummy's attack slammed right into his chest, knocking him back and slamming all the air from his lungs. He gasped and bent over, struggling to regain the breath he'd just lost.

YOU HAVE MY DAGGER! This dummy was just never going to die. Nyyrikki jumped forward with his dagger outstretched, but didn't get a chance to hit the dummy before he was forced to spin away to dodge a quick attack. He groaned in annoyance, not pleased with how long this was taking at all.

YOU HAVE MY DAGGER! This was... a stalemate. Rikki staring at the mannequin, the mannequin staring at him. Or, it would be staring if it had eyes. It went on for a few minutes before Rikki decided to move forward to attack, but the dummy was quicker and slammed it's arm into Rikki's side. He cried out and backed off before he was able to land a gash on his opponent.

SWEET VICTORY! Nyyrikki roared impatiently and lunged at the dummy again. He didn't even bother to dodge, he just let the mannequin's blow land. When he was close enough, he brought his dagger over his head and them slammed it down in the dummy's face, digging it in deep before pulling it out and letting the mannequin fall at his feet, now lifeless. Finally. Augh.
He dragged his feet over to the weapons and dropped his dagger among the others, scowling at it. He was all to happy to stumble to the elevator and descend, no longer wanting to mess with weapons or dummies for the rest of the day.

SWEET VICTORY!YOU HAVE MY BOW!"Enough of this." Mirac let his breath out slow. Eight shots in, he was pretty sure he had the art of bow and arrow (mostly) figured out. Besides, the mannequin was almost on top of him, if he missed at this range, he'd deserve being defeated by it. The arrow hissed through the air, striking dead center in the chest. The mannequin stopped dead in it's tracks, seemingly stunned before slumping down. Mirac's held breath whooshed out as he went down on one knee. "Okay, that's done with... is it lunch time yet?"

YOU HAVE MY BOW!
Siddie had spent all her time learning to fight so far fighting at close range. She remembered Cybele's demonstration from the first day now; it was smart to have an option for long-distance attack. So, when it was her turn to select a weapon, she chose a bow.
It was heavier than she'd expected. She hefted it and took up a firing stance, doing her best to imitate the way she'd seen their teacher stand. The mannequin activated n the other end of the platform; Siddie fumbled an arrow into place. The string was a solid line of tension between her fingers, the arrow's fletching brushing stiffly against her knuckles. Don't hold on to the arrow. Just look down the shaft and let go of the string.
The arrow thudded solidly into the mannequin's shoulder, making it stumble back. The arrow dangled in the thing's leathery skin for a few seconds, then dropped. She didn't think she'd hurt it much, but it hadn't advanced towards her.

YOU HAVE MY BOW!Siddie concentrated, trying to find the oddly peaceful state of mind she'd been in for the first shot. Aiming was easier and harder than she'd thought it would be. The mannequin wasn't so far away that she had to account for a curving flight, but centering the arrow's point and holding her arm steady enough was surprisingly difficult. The bow needed to be strung tight to be able to shoot properly, but that meant that it was hard to pull. She released the arrow. Once again, the mannequin stumbled back, but her aim hadn't been true; the arrow fell away immediately this time.

YOU HAVE MY BOW!Again. Siddie paused just a moment to shake her arm out; the fatigue of holding it steady was already making itself known. Then she lifted it again quickly, hoping that she wasn't about to be thwapped for her brief lapse. Her arm held steady until a breath before she released the arrow. Then her elbow shook, just slightly, but enough. The arrow made the mannequin stumble again, but didn't stay in its flesh.

YOU HAVE MY BOW!Siddie drew another arrow out of the quiver, eyeing it with some concern. How many arrows was she allowed to use? Would she be penalized for shooting too many times, or would she be judged solely on whether she had kept it away long enough to kill it? She hoped it was the latter. The arrow skittered off the mannequin's leathery flesh. It stopped moving to swat at the spot where the arrow had struck, as though bitten by an irritating fly.

YOU HAVE MY BOW!She had to damage the mannequin. She could do this. Siddie took a deep breath and sighted along the arrow, feeling something inside her relax, a kind of quiet stealing half-noticed over her thoughts. The arrow hissed through the air and lodged solidly in the mannequin's arm. Its arm swung wildly, and it continued its slow advance; but the arrow stayed put. She'd hurt it!

YOU HAVE MY BOW!Siddie nocked another arrow, breathing slow and steady and letting her mind quiet down again. In her mind's eye, she could see how the arrow was going to fly. Draw the string, let the arrow look at where it was going. The arrow buried itself into the mannequin's chest, making it wobble and stumble backwards. A little smile appeared on Siddie's face.

YOU HAVE MY BOW!Another arrow. Draw, sight, release. Her aim was slightly off from the previous shot, and the arrow lodged into the shoulder joint rather than the chest. The mannequin advanced, but the arrow remained, arrowhead stuck in the dry flesh. Opponent's HP: 1 Damage Dealt: 3 Opponent's Distance: 48 Knockback Dealt: no Previous Posts: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

SWEET VICTORY!YOU HAVE MY BOW!The rhythm of nocking a new arrow was almost soothing, pleasant in its repetition. She would be sore tomorrow, most likely, but right now Siddie just felt good, the burn of exertion in her arms easily pushed aside in the calm quiet in her head. She sighted along the arrow, choosing her spot, and loosed the string. The arrow buried itself deep into the mannequin's eye, and it stopped, wavered on its feet, then collapsed like a puppet with its strings cut. Already in the motion of reaching for another arrow, Siddie felt a moment of confusion. Then she squeaked, barely managing to hold back a full-out squeal of pride. She'd done it! The mannequin hadn't even crossed half the distance, and she'd really gotten the feel of the bow before the end of it! She set the bow carefully back into its rack with a lingering caress, and curtsied respectfully to Cybele.
