YOU HAVE MY DAGGER - IN YOUR FACE.
The mannequin and Whisper were trading blows pretty evenly, each hitting and dodging almost in sync. It was like a dance, each playing their part in the fight. All the fighting around her wasn't a distraction, she was feeding off of it. They were all trying to prove that they had learned all that was taught, that they were worth the time that had been spent on them.
She took a quick swipe at its face, and it kicked her in the shins. She was hoping that soon the odds would tilt more in her favour.

SWEET VICTORY!YOU HAVE MY DAGGER - IN YOUR FACE.Still on the ground, Deacon pulled his dagger free from the torso of his attacker. Oh Jack how was he supposed to get up when he'd pulled this thing on top of him. When the mannequin drew its arm back to land a punch to Deacon's face, it was a half failed attempt to defend himself when he raised the dagger to meet the mannequin's shoulder as it lurched down.
At least the mannequin was defeated with the blow, and Deacon was left with a sorely aching skull and a wish that he could dissipate so that he didn't have to deal with the pain for an extended period.
"Isss it over yet?!" Deacon hissed, mostly to himself, clutching his throbbing nose.

YOU HAVE MY DAGGER - IN YOUR FACE.
The even exchange of blows had turned into a consistent string of misses. Both of the fighters couldn't seem to hit each other, and this was almost frustrating the hellhound. She just wanted to knock it out, end this already so she could prove she was strong enough. But it didn't seem like that was going to happen any time soon. Oh how she wished she had a group with her, they could have ended this by now.

Things weren't looking very good as the mannequin landed a decent hit to Whispers back. She wasn't able to turn around quick enough, and by the time she went to attack it had already retreated. it was catching on to her tactic, and she knew she had to change it up. It was bound to happen, even though she wished the battle could have been over quickly. Seems like she had a few more rounds to go.

Whisper charged her opponent, unexpectedly taking a hit to the stomach. She was starting to let her frustrations get the best of her. Her attacks weren't as precise as they needed to be, and she was starting to rush in. She tried to find her centre again, but it was difficult. She felt like this was dragging on for so long. It was really testing her patience.

Whisper's light attacks were slowly widdling down the mannequins health, but they were just that. Light attacks. She couldn't seem to hit hard anymore. It wasn't that she was tired, but maybe she was losing hope. She knew that soon she would start losing energy, and if that happened the fight would be lost. She was taking a lot of hits too, and her FEAR shield would only last so long. Hopefully, she could get in another big hit or two before it broke.

YOU HAVE MY DAGGER - IN YOUR FACE.
This fight was getting harsh. She wished she could just use her FEAR, or transform and maul the dummy. But that was the whole point of this test; to get away from those crutches and be able to stand on her own. She thought it was so easy at first, that it would be a cake walk. That just wasn't true, and it took her until now to realize the real struggle. Her dagger was still sharp, and she still had some energy left. She had to keep fighting.
Whisper used a quick uppercut swing, cutting along its chest length wise. It knocked the dummy back, and it didn't seem to react as quickly. Perhaps this was all close to being over.

Whisper took advantage of the mannequin being knocked off balance to get in another attack. She made a deep cut on it's torso, dodging its attempted counter. This had to be over soon. The mannequin had taken so much damage, and even though this one had been stronger then the previous ones she had fought, she could tell when it was on its last legs. Soon this would be over...soon.

She was so close...she knew this was almost over. She could feel exhaustion creeping in slowly, and she knew it had to be ended before it could fully take hold. Whisper tried to dig deep to find what little energy she had left. This was definitely one of the more difficult fights she had ever participated in. She knew she was close. She just had to keep going a little longer, and then she could rest.

This was not good. Whisper could feel her shield weakening, and she took another hit. Why was this going so badly? She hadn't made any mistakes. She didn't let herself get too cocky, maybe she was just a terrible fighter. She wasn't as strong or agile as she thought she was. Whisper had a feeling that this was indeed going to end soon, but she wouldn't be the victor. She was going to disappoint Cybele, and herself.

This was it. Her last chance to claim her victory. They had been circling for a few minutes now, as if the mannequin also knew that this was the end. Every time one would move, the other would mirror it. it was almost a complete stalemate. But Whisper knew that wouldn't be an acceptable end. Only one could be standing. She took a deep breath, clutched her dagger tightly and ran straight for the mannequin.
They met almost exactly in the middle, striking each other at the same time. The dagger was embedded in its head, and the mannequin fell to the ground. Whisper's shield broke, but she was sure this was a victory. It wasn't the one she wanted, but at this point it was better then nothing.

Edel came into that day's class, feeling slightly more confident as she was riding on yesterday's success at the sparring. It would only be natural, she thought, that the final day's lesson be a culmination of all that the lessons that were taught. Still, the ghoul left herself open to be surprised, and she was. A fort! Edel inspected the mound of earth she was given to work with. It would make a decent base, but she would have to increase its effectiveness by working in materials she could gather from her surroundings, as well as adapting the fort to fit in with the environment.
Starting with creating the base, the ghoul heaped the mound of earth to form a 4 foot tall wall, patting the earth together to ensure that it was steady. She had carefully considered how it was going to be built – it would have to face the direction of the dummy release point for instance. The idea to create a dome around her was quickly abandoned as she realised that if the dummy were to breach the fortification, she would be trapped within close-quarters of her opponent and would not be allowed a route for quick-escape without taking injury herself. She eventually decided on maximising the area of defense by positioning the fort beside a tree with those long buttress roots to impede the progress of the attackers.
Using her dagger, Edel cut out two heaps of thorny vine she found nearby, draping them carefully all over the earth mound base. The sharp rocks that lay around the forest floor were a surprisingly nice find, and the ghoul collected a nice number of them to line around the fort. Stepping back, Edel took a quick look at her work. It wasn't looking too shabby, in fact, it looked quite dangerous if she should say so herself. It was at the very least, comparable to what she would have built if she had been allowed to create her defense with ice.
Ducking behind her fort, the ghoul readied herself for battle. And now, to wait.

YOU HAVE MY DAGGER - IN YOUR FACE.Looking back on the start of the battle, Edel had to admit she was not prepared for what was coming. Surely, she would have been all too familiar with the opponent by now, but that did not do much to contain the shock she had as the dummy simply hurtled right into the fort wall, through the sharp stones and through the thorny vines. Had they always been this quick? she thought, her chest tightening in panic as she watched the dummy plough through the earth wall, emerging covered and tangled in strings of thorny vine. She was not ready for this.
The ghoul lashed out at the dummy, more instinctively than deliberately, slicing open a cut on the doll's torso. Sometime as she was doing it however, the dagger got caught in the vines that wrapped around the dummy's body, rendering her stuck and completely open for attack. The animated doll wasted no time to do so, swinging out quickly, too quickly, at the ghoul. Edel could not evade the attack in time and was only able to shield the rest of herself with her left arm blocking the attack – a terrible mistake now that it was horribly scratched up and bleeding. The ghoul backed off immediately, her heart pounding and breath quickening.
Since when were the dummies this strong?HP: 34 /40 Damage Dealt: 20 + 4 = 24 Opponent's HP: 6 /30 Damage Blocked/Evaded: No Previous Posts: fort roll

YOU HAVE MY DAGGER - IN YOUR FACE.It was her first mistake for holding on to previous expectations of the opponent. Not only was it stronger and quicker than before, it seemed even more intent on attacking without stopping, and its battle endurance had been vastly increased as well. On top of that, it was now covered, ironically, with an armor of thorny vines – a perfect and most menacing armor. Here, she couldn't attack without worrying about taking damage herself. Edel was still in the process of recalibrating the dummy's capabilities, something she had been too absorbed in as she came under attack.
A wild kick into her shins – another unseen move in the dummy's arsenal. The ghoul grit her teeth and staggered back, still wildly confused by the barrage of new information. Blindly, she took a stab at the dummy, leaving a semi-deep indent on its left upper arm. She had been lucky to deal any damage while still that unorganised, quite frankly.HP: 28 /40 Damage Dealt: 2 Opponent's HP: 4 /30 Damage Blocked/Evaded: No Previous Posts: Fort roll Attack 1

YOU HAVE MY DAGGER - IN YOUR FACE.Everything seemed to be going downhill from then on. Panicked, shocked, unorganised, the ghoul stumbled about as she took another flying kick into her thigh, now cut up and bleeding. All the previous days' training and lessons failed to come to her – she could not find the peace within her to find her center. Any thoughts and ideas on how to use the environment to her advantage were completely out of question. Even just yesterday's lesson on how to attack and read the opponent's movements, and then proceed to defend, were all forgotten in a flash.
All she could think of at that moment was simply just run, run, run....HP: 22 /40 Damage Dealt: 0 Opponent's HP: 4 /30 Damage Blocked/Evaded: No Previous Posts: Fort roll Attack 1 Attack 2
