Well it started out innocently enough. Bix, being ever restless, went banging on Gale's door until he opened it. He ignored being yelled out by his buddy for banging and immediately flew into a monologue about the nature of boredom and how big things were on the horizon for them and how with finally getting the Golem licenses, they should practice fighting. He probably should have just said 'Do you want to go train?' but Bix wasn't always that straightforward. They'd ended up on the training fields firing away at some wooden dummies but his weapon, the ever lovely Mina, was whiiiining in his head about FEAR and wanting it and dummies were weak and unworthy of her almighty powers. So he said one of the dumbest things he could have. "Hey.. you wanna fight. For real?!" The albino hunter gave his buddy a wry smirk and before Gale could even answer he'd fired a an arrow roughly in Gale's direction. He hadn't really aimed so it whizzed by the other's head and dissipated. "We can't use our charge moves if we fight dummies..." Another bait shot was fired past Gale into into the grass, leaving a singe mark when the arrow disappeared. ------------------------------
[[ OOC ]] Welcome to Halo and Kuro's SAMPLE FIGHT! Our hunters are friends so they don't have many real disagreements. BUT Bix does often do things that really make Gale mad! This is one of those times. Basically right now Bix is baiting Gale into fighting. He's firing but not to hit. Our hunters know that they get physical protection from their weapon, Gale was once stabbed by an instructor only to find that he was absolutely fine! Consider this post to be our intro, as well as initiative for the fight. Normally you roll for initiative, but since Bix is sort of forcing Gale to fight, we won't need that.

Gale had, for the past half an hour, listened to Bix declaim exuberantly on the definition of boredom, the "big things in life," and how "badass the golem licenses were."
He did not want to listen anymore. Especially since the older boy had not even knocked before swaggering in like he owned the place.
Or maybe he had, and Gale just hadn't heard him over the sound of ridiculousness.
"How did we wind up here again?"
Standing out on the training field, Gale glared at Bix, lowering the rifle in his hands. Jinhai had been laughing at him incessantly for being dragged out by the white haired boy - at least until Gale had threatened to call him "Ginny" instead, and then the other had been quite abruptly silent.
He lifted the rifle again, intending to take another shot at the target, but Bix was talking again, and then something whistled past his head, ruffling his hair.
Something very, very familiar.
Gale turned slowly to stare at his friend.
"You just - shot - at me!" he said, outraged, and a second arrow followed the first, disappearing into the grass. "You just - "
<< So fire back, idiot. >>
Ignoring Jinhai's almost excited remark, Gale was too busy glaring incredulously at Bix, hand clenching around his weapon, a smirk of anger on his face.
"You ruddy b*****d - !"
----------------------------------------------------------
[ OOC ]
HELLO AND WELCOME TO OUR FIGHT!
tl;dr > Bix is a doufuss, and Gale is an even bigger one for actually taking the bait.
Like what Halo said, Hunters get physical protection from their weapon until their HP reaches 0. After that, it's goodbye, Broadway, and anything is fair game. Getting to -5 HP means you're unconscious, and -10 HP means you're pushing up daisies.
As Hunter Trainees, their HP is 40/40.
The next post will start our battle. <:

"C'mon!" Bix laughed when Gale finally responded. He started to circle his friend, bow now more carefully at the ready. "We're not going to get real training from stationary dummies! We're marksman. We have to hit moving targets." Bix now had his back to the training dummies. He watched Gale carefully, waiting to see his gun raise in retaliation. "HEADSHOT HEADSHOT!" he yelled it but didn't quite aim for one. Instead he aimed for a glancing shoulder blow. It was really just to get Gale worked up. Hit him! Oh Bixy the wonderful things you do for me sometimes!Bix's glancing blow was successful and his arrow just skimmed Gale's shoulder. "Bring it! I dare ya!!" He probably shouldn't have been laughing as much as he was... Gale was sure to get pissed. [ HP : 40 / 40 # of Hits: 1 / 3 Damage: Dice TOTAL 7 ----- 7 - 6 = 1 DMG ] --------------------- [[ OOC ]] Bix has finally gotten Gale's attention! As hunter trainees we roll 2d8 for regular attacks and then subtract 6. This determines the damage we have caused. It's important to keep track of HP, number of hits, and the damage (or defense) that was rolled for each post. Usually a lot of editing posts is involved! For hunters this is very important: KEEP TRACK OF YOUR HITS. You have to hit 3 times successfully to charge up your weapon and use it's FEAR attack! This only works against FEAR charged opponents (that just means wooden dummies don't count, as they have no energy whatsoever). I usually like to type up a bit of RP before I roll, but this is personal preference This way other players know my intentions and if for some reason I am slow on editing in my responses people can't accuse me of cheating or changing my post.. or it just helps make it easy for people to respond in case I am slow. It's always good to fully edit in a post AFTER you roll to fill in the details.

Bix was being annoyingly into this. Glaring at the older boy as he circled him like some sort of prey, Gale's lips twisted upwards in a sneering smirk.
"Like you could hit me anyway, ya big, red-eyed ninny - ow!"
The arrow had just glanced off of his shoulder, which didn't really hurt, but the unexpected attack had caught him off guard. Bix was now dancing around him like some sort of marionette, clearly gleeful.
Gale was not about to let the opportunity to kick Bix's trash go to waste.
"BRING IT, YA LEGOLAS WANNABE!"
<< Your insults leave quite a bit to be desired. >> Jianyu grumbled, but the eager thrumming when Gale lifted the rifle to his shoulder gave away his excitement.
Except Bix was dancing around so much, his shot went completely off, leaving Gale to swear profusely at his misfortune.

Bix snickered when Gale mentioned Legolas. This, of course, made him prance more. " I am light on my feet! Like a prince of elves! My keen elf hearing and eyesight will aid me in dispatching you!" How gay did that sound? DON'T TELL HIM. He danced away from Gale's retaliation but he could tell the other was getting mad. He wouldn't miss forever. Maybe if he kept moving. Bix lined up another shot, this time aiming for his friend's legs. It was like in the cop movies when they told you to aim for the knees.... FWIP! The arrow hit Gale in the thigh, not quite where he aimed but a hit was a hit. His bow was starting to vibrate in his hand and the red gems began to glow. Mmmmmmm... Mina purred in satisfaction. Just one more, snowflake."Awwww snap. . C'mon Gale! Get mad or.. something." He actual stood still.= as if it would help Gale hit him.. but it probably would just piss him off more. [ HP : 40 / 40 # of Hits: 2 / 3 Damage: Dice TOTAL 11 ----- 11 - 6 = 5 DMG ] ----------------------- [[OOC]] Just some more attacking. With 2 hits under his belt, Bix's weapon is charging. The weapons get really agitated and excited when this happens. He currently seems to be successfully on the offensive so I won't need to defend quite yet...

"You," said Gale tonelessly. "Are gay. And I don't mean that in the happy sense."
He was teasing, of course, but this was the middle of a fight that Gale was determined to win - and that meant baiting Bix as much as he could without actually managing to offend the other.
Something told him Bix wouldn't exactly like being called that, but at least he hadn't called him many of the other nicknames that had run through his head at being shot at by someone he actually considered a friend - a rarity, at least in Gale's case, since the rest of the hunters were all older than he was -
"OW! BLOODY HELL -"
The next arrow had snapped into Gale's leg, and it very nearly gave way beneath him, Gale staggering backwards a few steps.
"You ruddy jacka - HEY WHY ARE YOU STANDING STILL?!"
This time Gale didn't bother to actually shoot the rifle. Instead he swung the weapon around, slamming it against Bix's side. His balance was a little off, and he ended up only giving a glancing blow, but it still satisfied him.
<< Pathetic. >>
"Shut up."

Of all things to happen Bix was not expecting to be whacked with the gun. "Ow s**t ow.. I AM NOT GAY." He huffed and turned red suddenly. It wasn't something that should bother him very much but being pale and having super long hair never helped his image in high school much. Bix was someone who could lapse into high school mode way too often. He stared at Gale, reminded himself that this was his friend, and cracked a slightly bitter smirk. C'mon. One more hit!What if he hits me again? I should block him or something...Bixxxxyyyyyyy.. Mina whined. Just back up, run a distance. Shoot him AGAIN!The weapon was very demanding, her voice morphing very monstrously in his head. It wasn't something he'd ever heard before so he rushed to listen to her. He let go of his side and took a few steps away from Gale. "Apparently standing still is the only way you hit me." He stuck out his tongue and booked it a few yards in the opposite direction. He turned, backpedaled and drew his bow to fire once more. Could he run and shoot simultaneously? He was definitely not known for his coordination! When he let his arrow loose it definitely flew true. He was so amazed that he'd done it that he ran smack into one of the dummies and stumbled. He didn't hurt himself but he sure looked stupid! "HA!" In his hand, Mina was bursting with energy. The bow itself seemed to hum and the 4 red gems pulsed brightly, runes showing deep within their depths.

Gale stepped back away from Bix, one hand on his hip, the other holding the sniper rifle against his shoulder. He gave the older boy a satisfied smirk, and said "Coulda fooled me."
He supposed using Jinhai to actually hit Bix, rather than shoot him, was a bit below the belt, but the albino had been teasing him, after all - or rather, mocking, since he was standing still so that Gale could have a better shot at hitting him.
Which was slightly insulting. Gale scowled.
"That is not the only way I'll hit you," he said, glaring at his friend. "I've definitely hit you before - "
He almost didn't see Bix raise his arrow again, Gale's attention drawn to Jinhai who had started reprimanding him for being careless. The only sound he heard was the telltale snap of the bowstring, and without thinking, Gale flung himself to the side.
The stupid arrow hit him anyway, striking Gale's leg. He tripped, tumbled into a somersault, and wound up back on his feet, crouched low on the ground just in time to see Bix run headlong into a practice dummy.
"Idiot," said Gale, simultaneously with Jinhai, who added << And I mean you, by the way, not me. >>
"Thanks for the vote of confidence."

Gale is defending this time around! As a Hunter Trainee, I roll 1d6. Whatever number I roll is subtracted from the number Halo will roll next turn. i.e. if Halo's attack is for 7 points, and I roll a 6, then her attack is only 1 point.
Because he defended, Gale does not attack this round.

Bix rubbed his forehead, which had knocked against the dummy in his confrontation, and mumbled curses under his breath. He didn't have much time to complain though. His weapon was making some of the most inappropriate noises in his mind. The albino hunter scoped for his friend, now crouched but not appearing too hurt. "Here goes nothing..." He let out a deep breath and aimed his bow into the air above Gale. He draw a bright red arrow of energy and his bow pulsed even brighter, as if it were pumping the power into the arrow. "BAAAALLLS!" He didn't have to yell it but it seemed to be his 'thing' nowadays. He let loose the arrow and hoped for something amazing. The arrow seemed to disappear in a burst of light and then suddenly several arrows rained down around Gale. There were quite a few and they seemed to sting more than hurt, but it was multiple hits that made the difference not their intensity. "Wooo!" The last time he'd done that he'd missed completely. "That was awesome!" He was so pleased with using his charged shot that he'd momentarily forgotten they were fighting. [ HP : 38 / 40 USING CHARGE SHOT! Damage: 29 / 2 = 15 DMG ] -----------------------------
[[OOC]]
Bis is using his charged shot! Basically, depending on what fits your FEAR power (or your character's personality) best, you choose a category for your FEAR here. Bix is using Swift Strike because it pretty much does exactly what his power is (multiple weaker hits). Swift Strike An unconventional Reaper specializing in the use of both fists and shruiken developed the technique known as Swift Strike. At its core, the technique consists of light attacks performed in rapid succession to deal damage. On their own the strikes do little damage, but together the result is quite painful. This technique is good for those who prefer to attack relentlessly, or for those whose have an Area of Effect Fear. Year Two/Hunter Trainees: 9d4
First Dice:
xxxxx 1: Miss
xxxxx 2 - 3: HIT however the resulting damage is divided by 2. Only 50% of the damage is dealt.
xxxxx 4: HIT however the resulting damage is multiplied by .8. Only 80% of the damage is dealt.
Damage: Add up the dice, divide by the modifier result.
Average Damage: 10 (50%), 16 (80%)
So I rolled 9d4. My first dice was a 3 which means I divide the total by 2. That leaves me with 14.5 DMG! In the past 'roll up' has always been the precedent so I am going to use that to round up to 15 dmg! Remember, Gale is currently defending so that will be decreased further in Kuro's next post.

<< DUCK, MORON! >> was the only warning Gale got. Something exploded above his head, there was a flash of bright red light, and Gale flung his arms over his head just in time.
It seemed as if the sun had spontaneously combusted. Spots of red and white swam in front of his vision as he kept his eyes squeezed tightly shut, keeping himself hunched over tightly. A few of the arrows scraped against his side, his arms, which stung rather painfully, but at least they weren't actually going into him. And his face was protected, along with his head.
After a few seconds the air grew still and quiet again, and Gale chanced to lower his arms slowly, eyes opening. Once he was certain the rainshower of Bix's arrows had stopped, he got to his feet, wincing slightly. It had hurt more than he realized, and his body ached like he had just spent several hours working out.
"You...bloody...idiot - "
He started to lift the rifle, intent on swinging it at Bix's head, but his arm gave a protesting whine and Gale's shot went wide and far again.
"I'll...kill...you - "

Bix gaped at his own attack. Gale looked a little beaten up. "Shiiiit.. Hey sorry I.." He didn't want to hurt Gale, he was just playing. He didn't think he had enough training to hurt anyone very much at all. The plan worked though: get Gale worked up to have a real fight. I told you I was impressive. Mina sounded almost exhausted. He wouldn't be doing another one of those shots for a while. It was reassuring that his weapon could do some damage though. He'd be slightly more confident when he got to fight some real monsters. The albino hunter wanted to go over to his friend but Gale seemed really pissed. He could also just stand still.. then Gale could hit him a few times. It would be like an even trade right? It wasn't long before Gale fired on him and Bix simply grabbed his head and yelped as the shot went wide. He stayed like this but didn't say anything at all. Maybe Gale could just fire at him and get his frustrations out... [ HP : 38 / 40 Blocking 2 dmg on next attack ] ----------------------
[[OOC]] Bix now feels like crap about hurting Gale! He's not going to attack friend while he's down >_< Bix is going to defend. I roll a 1d6 to see what amount of damage Bix blocks on Gale's next attack. If he were to attack and hit Gale more, his charge shot will not build up. He and his weapon are too inexperienced right now to get off more than one FEAR attack per battle.

It was quite fortunate for Gale that he was still protected by the FEAR shield, considering how many arrows had just blasted towards him.
He supposed it was only natural - they were both hunters, after all. They had chosen this path, they knew why they were here, and they did need training.
Except not training on each other, though apparently that wasn't really even frowned upon here.
Gale glowered at the offending albino, fuming mutely. It wasn't so much that Bix had managed to attack him - it was that he, himself, was completely and utterly pathetic. How had he managed to miss shooting Bix, not once, but twice? Gale had done well during the training sessions - he knew quite well what he was doing and how to do it.
So why could he not seem to get a clear shot?
<< Because you're not concentrating enough, idiot. >>
Jinhai's frustrated voice rang inside of Gale's head, the sniper rifle clearly irritated that his hunter couldn't manage one measly shot. And Gale was not about to admit that he had been wondering the exact same thing.
"Shut up," he grumbled, swinging the rifle around. He yanked down on the release, took aim, and fired.
There was the deafening crack of the gunshot, the bullet ricocheting towards Bix, and -
<< Finally. >>

Bix never saw the shot coming with his head shielded by his arms. He did feel a bullet hit him in the shoulder and it was quite a blow. He gasped and stumbled backwards. It wasn't some stupid little gun, that thing was a sniper rifle and it could pack a punch. "That stings like a.." He muttered again. He seems pretty angry. Wanna shoot back? Hmm? His weapon sounded lazy now, like she'd eaten a large meal and just wanted a nap. No I mean.. I kind of do but he might get unreasonably mad and I just wanna see his charged shot. You are a glutton for punishment...Bix uncurled his arms from his head and once again raised his bow. He looked like he was lining up a shot and taking a really long time to aim but he was also strafing sideways. Was he having a hard time aiming or just baiting Gale into firing again? [ HP : 34 / 40 ] --------------

Gale's arm hurt like a mofo. That damned last shot from Bix had really done him in good. The arrows had obviously not pierced his skin like normal arrows, but they had stung; it was rather like getting shots all over his body - very unpleasant ones.
Staggering to his feet, Gale swayed a little as he attempted to keep himself balanced. He wasn't direly injured by any means, but it was the kind of aches and pains one got from working out to the brink of exhaustion.
And it was all Bix's fault.
What was he doing, anyway? The white haired boy was reaching for his bow again, lifting it to shoot, but it was like he was going in slow motion, his arms moving as if through molasses.
Gale was very, very suspicious. Except he wasn't about to let a free shot go to waste, so he raised the gun again, Jinhai thrumming excitedly.
Bang.
His aim was off again; the bullet barely grazed Bix's leg, but simultaneously he could feel the rifle growing colder in his hands, an icy chill spreading up the barrel towards where his gloved fingers were.
<< Perfect, >> came Jinhai's voice, nearly a purr. << Perfect. >>
