Welcome to Gaia! ::

It had been two weeks since their ordeal in the training camp, two weeks since the passing of their former professor. Two weeks to recover from the bruising he had acquired... most of them vanished a little over a week later. The one on his side in particular, that came from a hunters weapon, was now in the green-ish stages of recovery. It still hurt like hell if touched too hard, but it was at least healing.

It was a surprise to him when he found Amrita standing outside his door that day, even more surprising once she asked to spar with him.

Her reasoning was sound, though he still for a short while thought she was only kidding. His teeth clamped shut though once she actually lead him to the outdoor arena, she was actually serious!?

"Uhm, are you really sure your up to this?" All the same he backed away, crouching some closer to the ground. He had fought beside her two weeks ago, so he knew well not to underestimate the ghoul. His tails flicked madly behind him, as if they were waiting for the battle ahead with glee.

If Remi was in any sort of disbelief, it was now known that the ghoul was not kidding. Letting out a hiss in frustration as the female jammed him with her elbow, he moved to back away from her. Not before his claw/nails lightly grazed her, but not any real damage.

Keeping his mouth shut, the Kitsune quirked an eyebrow and shook his head, laughing. "Well, i guess there is one way to learn to dance..." In a almost predator like motion he started to circle around her slowly, looking for some sort of opening.

In the back of his mind though... he just could not get over the fact he was attacking a comrade. It was one of his own pitfalls he would need to get over if they wanted to train.

Remi managed to avoid the tackle, but it did manage to disorient him. With a yelp he found himself rolling away, catching his footing only a few yards away.

He should attack, defend? Did he really want to try and hurt her? The answer really was no... but they did need to learn to fight better. Skills were what meant the winners and losers of the game, if they didnt want to fall prey. A grumble in his chest, he was lost in thought.. open for attack if Amrita chose.

"Would you believe getting cold feet?" He muttered out loud just so she could hear, but it was faintly true what he said. He did not want to fight the little ghoul, not wanting to harm her, but she was leaving him little to no choice. He had barely dodged a attack that just was delt out...but. "Guess theres only one thing to do.." The blue fox sighed, squaring his shoulders.

"Can i tack on something though?" He walked a step or two towards where she stopped... giving a faint smile. Lesson one. "No letting your guard down!" And he lunged at her.

The thing about the ghoul he was fighting, was that she REALLY did not realize the...compromising, way that she did things. Or even how she reacted to his own sarcasm. All and all, she really was just too pure. It was not something that the boil realized until much later, but he had come to know it was 'Amrita'.

All the same, being pulled so he was laying on top of her made a single eyebrow quirk up one he caught his breath again.

Hrm.

He could have probably done a huge blow against her now, but it was hardly fair. Instead he settled for poking her on the side. "Now who's not fighting back." She smiled, and then rolled off of her. Shuffling to the side he crouched low to the ground, one hand with fingers splayed apart as his tails lashed behind his frame.

Standing ready for the coming attack had done the boil some good, he at least was able to mostly dodge the kick. Her foot still hit home, choosing to hit one of the green bruises Remi let out a howl of pain. Reacting purely on instinct he made a grab for the girls leg. Using her own momentum he rolled with the ghoul, before letting her go and tossing her to the side.

Then he realized what he did, with a stare, he opened his mouth with a '0'. "s**t! Amrita, you ok!?" He did SO not mean to toss her that hard...
