After that whole shadowling fiasco, Jake's room was a terrible mess, and the trainee only heaved a heavy sigh, staring at the destruction.

Shoving his hands in his pocket, he kicked at some now-salvageable clothes, and stared at the chair that was missing a leg.
"Well, it's not like I was going to use that money for anything."
<...clothes, maybe?>
"I have enough."

He ran a hand through his hair, and let out a huff.
"... I really don't want to deal with this crap right now."
Bending down, he tossed the clothes into a corner, and stepped out the door, grabbing his new intermediate coat on the way. They even ripped his coat too, those bastards...

Slipping his coat on while he walked, he pulled out his phone, texting as he walked through the halls.

Text to Sherry:

Hey, if you're free, wanna spar?
I'll be at the training grounds if you're interested.

More rest and relaxation was something she desperately wanted. Unfortunately, that was not something Deus usually offered. Not in huge copious amounts anyway. Sure, there was some downtime, but there was also always something to do. Maybe it was time to look into her monthly leave and spend a weekend doing nothing.



No, I mean, some more relaxation. Come on, Armagnac, even sleep is interrupted here. Case in point-- The buzzing of her phone drew her attention. "Or maybe something else has come up." There was never a moment to rest.

"Oh! Would you look at that," she couldn't deny the fact that the text on her screen made her quite happy. She was way past even trying to deny it, to herself anyway. "Well, looks like we have something to do for today." She was grinning as she sent a short, simple reply.

Text to Jake: Be right there!


She was practically bouncing with happiness as she pocketed her phone and started for the training grounds.

---

She was still rather bouncy when she got there.
What was the word to describe how she felt? Giddy? Maybe.

He was in the process of decimating his fourth training dummy until he felt his phone buzz.

Jake only shrugged, switching both tonfas to his left hand as he reached into his pocket to pull out the phone.

Smirking at the text, he only managed to flip it close, stick it back into his pocket and finish destroying the 4th training dummy when Sherry arrived.
"Hey, you-" He paused, staring at her. "Are you... bouncing?
Chester snickered.
The trainee only rolled his eyes.

Shut up.

He didn't bother wasting time with introductions as he faced her, feet planted apart, tonfas raised.
"Ready to go?"

The first thing that crossed Sherry's mind was how very Jake-like Jake was being. Her second thought was--

Pushed right out of her mind by his comment. Oh, goodness. Was she?



Oh, can it already. I'm just excited. Sherry did her best to hide any sort of blush creeping up her face with a pleasant scowl and a weapon summon. To Jake she said, "Of course! I'm always up for a friendly fight."



Sherry adjusted the glaive in her hands. You are not helping.

"Whenever you're ready." She was grinning like a fool.

Kicking away the debris, he grinned and flexed, rolling his shoulders.
"You better be, 'cuz I'm not going to go easy on you, so don't you dare hold back either!"
Not wasting time, he dashed forward, right arm extending outwards for a slash.
The first blow was soft, letting it be a warning, but seriously, Sherry, take him seriously.

Oh, she had every intention of taking him seriously.

"Always," she replied, her stance turning defensive out of reflex to his oncoming attack. She took his hit, and raised an eyebrow at him. It was only a small question, though she did appreciate him not calling for blood right out of the gate.

Her own hands then moved, and the bottom of her own weapon gave a small, quick movement outward. It was something akin to a playful jab at his leg. The blade stayed in the air, and Armagnac growled in mild frustration.



Sherry almost rolled her eyes, but she was intent on keeping her focus on Jake. "Congratulations on the new coat, by the way. I don't think I said anything last time I saw you." No, she hadn't. She'd been far to nervous about being in her pajamas. Oh, lord.

His grin widened, happy that Sherry noticed.
Yes he was now an internediate trainee. Still a trainee, but a step up.
He was pretty damn proud okay.

"Thanks. Got promoted recently."
New coat, upgraded weapon...

Don't ruin my moment.

OKAY it's not brand-spanking new shut up.

So what if he might be wearing some deceased hunter's coat? It was still new to him ok? At least he wasn't lying about Chester getting sharper.
As if to prove it, he swung out with the other arm, putting more effort into the blow.

"Good work! You deserve it!" She barely got the words out before she was forced to flinch. So he wasn't playing around.



In response to both of them, Sherry brought her blade down, and took a low swipe at Jake.

Thankfully, his FEAR shield protected him from the blade, but the impact still made him flinch, stumbling slightly as he steadied himself.
He only flashed a grin at Sherry, glad she was taking him seriously, and delivered another swipe.

Sherry returned his grin, even though the attack that followed it was a solid one. "Not bad, glad to see you've been improving." She really was, too.

The compliment was followed with a another swing of the glaive, similar to the one before it.

Armagnac was rumbling with glee inside her head.

He scoffed.
"Of course. I don't sit around here doing nothing."

His lips curled into a grin.
"And all that training hasn't been for nothing, either."

The runes on his tonfas glowed, and Sherry would find herself surrounded by familiar-looking darkness, wispy tendrils with glowing green wrapping around her limbs, threatening to squeeze the life out of her.

The illusion itself was also stronger, even making Jake cringe slightly as he watched it immobilize Sherry.

...Right.

He dashed forward, swinging the blade towards Sherry as he offered her a (somewhat) apologetic smile.
But he really wasn't sorry at all

Sherry caught the tell-tale signs of a weapon releasing it's charge. She had seen Chester's attack before, she knew what to expect. Only this time, well, the the illusion (that's all it was right?) was stronger. She could practically feel it holding her back. It was--

And then Jake was there, with an incoming attack that hit hard. Did she catch a grin as he hit her? Or was it more a look of sympathy? She could hardly tell through her flinch.

On reflex, she tried to get in a counter attack. She didn't know if it even did any good, she was too busy focusing on the fact that her Fear shield had taken a huge hit.

He had taken too long, and because of that, the illusion, though stronger, had already began wearing off, and he let out a grunt as Sherry was able to get a counter-attack in, the surprise causing him to stumble back.
As a result, his next strike only managed to nick her FEAR shield as he finally pulled back, the last of the illusion dissipating.

Though he had used up his charge not too long ago, his weapon was already glowing slightly, hinting at an upcoming full charge.
"Not bad" he grinned. "Haven't actually had someone hit me when I used that attack."

Sherry was very thankful that his followup hit was little more than a scratch.

"Heh," Sherry began as she drew in a breath, "Thanks--



"--I didn't think it would actually hit. That attacks gotten quite a bit stronger." Sherry shuddered, remembering the 'feeling' of the tendrils holding her back.

Armagnac was yelling in her head.

Sherry gave Jake a small nod, then moved forward, bringing her blade in was she closed the distance. Armagnac was right, it was a spar, and perhaps talking was not the best course of action.
