Clarissa took a single half step back at the crazed look Jack gave her. Then she stood her ground. She wasn't going to back down. It wasn't her style. She let out a chuckle that was kinda shaky with nervousness.
"Someone's excited I see. What style are you going to learn with them?" she asked.
If Jack bothered to pay attention he would see that Clarissa was actually dressed decently. She had on loose fitting shorts and an over sized blue shirt with the sleeves cut off. Under that she had on a form fitting white tank top and a sports bra on. Not that he'd be able to see her bra. On her feet were socks and sneakers.

Clarissa was curious, but it looked like Jack wouldn't tell her. Guess she'd have to find out by fighting him sometime.
"Maybe we can spar together once you get what you want and you can show me," she said. She rubbed the back of her head awkwardly. She wasn't used to having her hair in a pony tail.
"See you around. I'm going to start training," she said. She looked pretty excited.

Gunner The Instructor
Gunner digged around in his supplies for a few moments before pulling out a very metallic shortsword in its sheathe. It was perhaps more amazing that such a sword could take such a small natural form. "In case you've forgotten how this works," He said to Jack and pulled out the sword. "The nanites are programmed to change their configuration with a change in grip and an activating energy. In other times something like an electric shock would probably be engineered into the bottom of the handle or something, but for us a small pulse of Ki will get the job done (E-rank). This will cause the sword to change into another type depending on the grip you have on it." Gunner then demonstrated by placing a second hand on the sword and changing his grip, which immediately caused the sword to morph and expand into a longsword. It was very cool to watch, to say the least. "Keep in mind that it doesn't create new matter, it only reconfigures it, so don't bother trying to morph the nanosword into a greatsword or non-sword weapon like a scythe or anything."

In response to what Gunner was saying, Jack responded with, "Aye, I remember, and If I also remember correctly, this sword not only can change sword types, it can also eat through metal...though the sharpness of the sword is sacrificed due to the nanobytes being dull in nature....its really only as sharp as any normal sword, so it isn't some kind of super slicing weapon....which is cool with me...the flexibility of the weapon plus it's ability to eat through metal subset the weakness". It had been awhile, but he still remembered Gunner's explanation of the sword when it first was used by Darion. Jack recalled his own contempt as he watched Darion clumsily swing and twirl the sword around as if it was a simple toy.

Darion examined Emma's arm once she put on the metal object, it seemed to take the energy put into it and amplify what it could, the complexity of the machine was too much for Darion to understand, due to the fact we was lacking in the academic and technical knowledge to even scratch the surface of the advanced technology being made and introduced on the island. All he could tell is that a certain componet would take the energy Emma put into it and it would manage to increase it's power and duration. In theory if someone would brake through all of that metal and hit that componet the machine would stop working. 8/16
Darion would turn his attention back to Emma's back and torso, with each movement she made with the metal armored arm, as her arms moved her back muscles spread apart showing multiple weaker circuits, he understood now why he shouldn't find many weak energy circuits. He was looking at this stage the wrong way, instead of inflicting muscle and nerve pain like he's been doing most of the other stages this one revolved around damaging under the skin, not with heavy hits but with his own energy. A sense or relief came through Darion's mind as he realized his mistakes. 9/16
Darion turned his attention back to Emma's arms and figured that since her muscles were so think their that must have meant the circuits in her arms were carrying more energy the the rest of her body, the more muscle the more protection, he had an idea of a skill he would try to construct later.10/16
Darion turned his attention over to Jack and realized how under developed his body was compared to everyone else. Jack had hardly any protective muscle around his arms and back which were vital in swordsmanship. Jack's circuits were more exposed and showed many more weaker points in them.11/16
Darion looked at Gunner, his circuites were almost completely covered in muscle making it more difficult to know where the more energy rich ones were located and where the the weaker ones were as well. The only way he could tell is if he either fought Gunner or took the time to examine him with that fancy skill Gunner taught him.12/16
Darion looked at his surrounding and began seeing the circuits in the building around him, he never realized how much energy was put into making such a building, however it wasn't the same energy as living things, this was more electrical rather then natural, he wasn't able to see well in the jungle due to all the pure energy coming from the living things. He almost had the basics of this stage down.13/16
Darion began simulating how he would hit these weaker points in everyone's bodies. Jack's were more simple then Emma's and Gunner's points we're even more so difficult then Emma's. As boring as this stage was to train in,it was needed. The skills involved we're dangerous and ki consuming he knew that much, he would need to think of how to pull such skills off. 14/16
Darion was getting distracted in his own thoughts he looked back at Emma's back an took note of the circuits in her back, with every punch muscles would move to reveal more circuits that he could strike and do internal damage rather then external. Darion was almost done adjusting his sight to see the other energy circuits permanently.15/16
Darion opened his eyes and stood up. He activedated his Chi sights and grinned as he saw everything he saw in his meditation, he turned to Gunner and put his hand up."I'm finished...What next?' Darion would walk up to Gunner and turn his attention to Jack. He chuckled as a smile would form on his face."Hey there Jack, Long time no see, how's training been going? Oh, I see Gunner is showing you the nanobot sword, don't drag it on the elevator floor, that thing would eat right through the ground and you'd fall to your death!" Darion siad as he joking punched Jack's shoulder. 16/16

It had become a running thing for Darion to always ******** things up when things were looking good for Jack. He didn't want to let Darion know he was getting the sword....he didn't want to give any knowledge to Darion that would give him any sort of advantage over him. Jack leaned over to purposely miss the friendly punch Darion decided to send his way. He outright completely ignored the question that Darion asked, but he needed Darion to believe that he wasn't receiving the sword. He couldn't allow Darion to know anything of his methods...he couldn't allow anyone to. Coldy, he said through almost clenched teeth, "Gunner is just allowing me to borrow it for a day....there are some design specifications I wish to copy onto another blade. It's a research project in advanced blade making...nothing more". Actually, Jack didn't lie...mostly....he wanted to sort of examine the sword closely enough to where he could possibly unlock its secrets. Of course Gunner could answer those questions for him but Jack always liked finding things out himself. He was no scientist or inventor...but Jack had the mind and intelligence to become one. But in the end, he hoped to apply for a forge to built within the school....there was always something more special about making your own weapons than actually just being given one.

Darion shook his head, he knew Jack. It wasn't some one day thing, he was stupid to know Jack would want this for only a day. It was a high-tech sword that could eat through metals, Jack obviously wanted it for an advantage. Darion would change the topic. He glared at Jack, in a sharp and angry tone he would speak, "OI! What have I told you about being a jerk to the guy who saved your life on multiple occasions and the guy you live with, not to mention your closest friend?" Frost began to develope on the walls as Darion's anger grew,he was beginning to become fed up with Jack's constant rudeness with him. If Jack would do another rude remark he would have a surprise for him.

His pupils quickly traveled back and forth, examining his surroundings....It was a narrow hallway....very disadvantageous...and there was a level difference...2 levels if Darion managed to pull off the level up test without him knowing. Based upon instinct alone, once Jack detected intent to attack, his hands grabbed the hilt of his sheath, his thumb to pull up the hilt slightly revealing bare naked blade....He could end it right now though...he was in range....one swift action would shut him up for good. He wouldn't see it coming, the Dark Slayer style relies on quick draws from the sheath in early stages....No....Gunner was there...and there wasn't an open enough space for Jack to work with to pull off a lengthy battle. Jack used his thumb to push the blade back in. "No...not today...to easy...much to easy...", Jack would think. He sneered and simply said, "You asked, I answered". He wasn't going to let Darion's taunts and constant mentioning of him saving his life get to him. As far as Jack was concerned, they were done for good....Jack didn't need a "closest friend".

As soon as Jack's hand when for his blade Darion grinned."Try It and I'll tear your eyes out..." Darion's hand was up as soon as Jack's hand move and shards of ice would form around his hand."You may be my friend but I will not stand by if you plan to cut me down, I will disable you..." Darion's skills were much faster then Jack's and most of them were of a higher rank, not to mention this narrow hall way would be a perfect death trap for his ice geyser."Better hope we don't have to fight in the tournament... You won't win Jack." Darion would send a shard of ice from his palm at Jack's face at high speeds. If it hit a large cut would appear on his cheek and blood would cover his shard, leaving Darion with his first victim.

He had even expertly placed himself within a sword stance while Darion was talking, but masking it as a nonchalant movement. He had his eyes on Darion and both hands on his katana at all times. Being a swordsman, Jack was excellent at reading and predicting people, so when Darion made an obvious attack movement, Jack responded with lightning quick efficiency, his feet were already in place and the timing couldn't even had been better. It was a movement so quick that if Jack decided to, he could follow all the way through and end Darion's life. But no, this was more of a show of force and self defense rather than a actual attack. Jack, with his hands already on the hilt, brought the katana in a vertical swiping motion immediately cleaving the ice shard in two, landing safely away from Jack. The sword would stop its path right on the tip of Darion's nose, drawing a tiny bit of blood. The attack was quick, it was forceful, it was practically a flash. Darion would be hard pressed to dodge it, especially since it was an immediate counter to an attack Darion was already in the middle of executing. Plus Jack was already so close, if he choose to he could follow up with a chain of attacks instead of just a single maneuver. Not like he needed to dodge it, it was only a nick in the nose...nothing harmful...just a statement. While holding the blade right in the middle of Darion's face, Jack's face contorted into his other self...insanity reigned supreme in his facial features, "Save it for the arena Darion....Heh heh heh...you think your the only one capable of making threats? Do not take me so lightly....I hope you know where the nurses office is....And I hope your not to attached to your limbs....Cause come the fight..You won't be leaving with all of them". Jack was very confident...but he didn't want to fight right now...He had business to take care of..more training to cram in to his day...more toys to receive.
Battoujutsu (Instant Sword Draw) Rank: C Description: To use this technique the user must place the right leg in front of the left leg to avoid cutting your own leg. This is an instant draw technique, ussually used for countering, since the user does not move from his spot. In a stance form and waiting for an opponent with the correct timing, a powerful swing with the twist of waist. This technique is extremely lethal and difficult to dodge unless the opponent has great reaction skills.

Kira walked into the Training room. It seemed to be getting somewhat chilly, great. Noticing the source of the disturbance she rolled her eyes and grumbled. Lighting a small fire, to not only help meditate but to fight ebb back the chill. Kira began to meditate. Focusing mainly on the fire, she allowed the flame to swirl around in her mind, building and breathing and being one with her. Soon, a warmth began to grow inside of her, and she felt the edge of the chill of frost ebb away. Smiling, Kira would continue with her meditation seemingly undisturbed.

Darion would look at the blood at the tip of his nose. He burst out laughing as Jack stopped talking. "Oh Jackie... You think this proves anything?" Darion glared at Jack and turned around to walk back into the room,"You have no idea the torment I could cause you with your own body and I'd suggest taking your own advice, I'm going to rip your eyes out in the arena, the we'll see whos the stronger of us." Darion walked out into the training room and grinned, the nurses office, what a splended idea. He'd have to go there later.Darion walked up to Emma and sighed. "Man, as much as I hate fighting I think thats the only way to get through to that kid... I don't know what happened but he changed for the worst..." Darion sighed as he sat down and waited for Emma's responce

He would say nothing as Darion walked off, and shake his head as he couldn't help but hear what Darion said to Emma. The room was fairly quiet and Darion made no attempt to lower or hide his voice from prying ears so he heard it easily. Jack just shook his head...Jack changed? Jack had never changed. Darion was just blind. Jack turned his attention to Gunner, and said, "I am very sorry about that Gunner....Darion is rather impulsive..".
