Running swiftly, Ziven desired escape. However as she ran, she very nearly ran into Ali out in the middle of nowhere, not having expected to find anyone in such a desolate area. With a jump, she avoided crashing in to him but quickly stopped, lowering herself to one knee on the ground. Her side facing Ali now, she turned her head, looking to him with a mixture of surprise, concern and curiosity. "Are you well?" she began slowly, unsure if he would still be upset with her. As the day was hot, she too was rather glowing with moisture gathered from her run, dressed in a light brown dress which gave her free movement and was quite comfortable on a day like this.

* Ali had bent his body back and sideways to avoid the movement he had caught in the edge of his eye, standing up straight afterwards once he saw it was Ziven. Brushing some sweat droplets from his forehead with his right fingers afterwards and taking a deep breath, his voice showing signs of him being a little exhausted.* Why are you out here so far from everything?

"To get away. Imagine my surprise to see you, here where no one normally is." she said softly, watching him with growing curiosity. She found it interesting that he did not answer her question directly, perhaps this was a sign that his answer was essentially no. "You wish to be alone, to escape also? I will leave if you wish." she offered, as she too wiped her own brow. With a soft sigh, she realized she was thirsty and conjured a glass of water, taking a moment for herself as she waited for his reply.

We need to talk.* Ali crossed his arms across his chest and watched her, wondering on why and what she was escaping from.*

"As you wish." she said softly, shifting herself to remain seated comfortably, though again looking small in her position.

Why did you agree to get that...brand?* Ali narrowed his eyes somewhat, he wasn't as ticked off now. He just had a tendency to look that when when he had questions.*

"When my master bonded, his hand became marked because of her. That is not a sign of slavery but a visible representation of a bond that is much deeper than anything that could be seen." she said softly, watching him now with an apologetic expression. "To me .. this bond between Fox and I seemed very similar. We know each other on a more .. intimate level, but we are not mates. And though I have a mark, he has agreed not to force me to do anything against my will. I believed it would be like the bond my master shares. It is something I have always desired, I realize it was selfish and hasty to do so without thinking of how my decision would affect others." she said softly before lowering her head, bracing herself for what she would assume would be much yelling.

* Ali smiled somewhat and lowered his arms, tapping the left side of his chest with his right finger where there was a scar shaped as a C, then one down at the right side of his stomach shaped in a L.* I would lie if I said I haven't been branded too, though mine aren't as visible as yours is thanks to all my other scars. Thus I regard them as trophies as I do with all my scars.

Lifting her eyes to him, she smiled a bit, tilting her head now. "I see." she said with a bit of a giggle. "After all, you do understand then, yes?"

I have my doubts about Fox and his intentions but I trust that you can handle yourself and that he knows he better not cross the line, As horrid as it may sound I wouldn't hesitate to break his neck if he went out of line. Other then that I can sort of understand.* Ali smiled a little wider afterwards, having a little fantasy of him breaking Fox's neck before snapping back to reality.*

"I am sorry to have upset you, it was not my intention. And .. I thank you for understanding, even though you do not fully approve." she said softly, bobbing her head. Thinking, she tilted her head, curious about their future. "Do we still have the training?"

Well you haven't graduated yet.* Ali laughed somewhat and rolled his shoulders and neck, cracking it and his knuckles afterwards.* Could have a test to see just how much you've progressed.

She finished drinking her water and dismissed the cup. Arching a brow as he spoke, she smiled, showing an almost creepy look of determination with what she said and stood. "Perhaps."

Good, Here are the rules. no magic and only punches and kicks, no grabbing .* Ali smiled at her before his right first shot out quick and sudden, aiming straight towards her nose. Trying to bust it and perhaps have her too occupied with that so he could Knock her out on the second or third punch.*

She sensed his movements and flinched, wanting to dodge but knowing it was too late. Raising her arm, she swept her arm around, pushing his arm aside to the left while she dodged her head to the right. The combination would lessen her chances of being hit full force, hopefully this would be enough. As she did this, using her movement to her advantage, she swung one leg out, intending to hurt him if not sweep his feet from under him.
