Closed to new people joining in, don't worry though there will be more chances.Sailor Maia In light of the recent events at the, as some call it, CarnEvil, I have decided to hold another group training session. The session will be held at the old abandoned gynmatics facility on the east side of town, at 10pm. All are welcome to participate. Please spread the word. Sailor Maia Maia sat in the facility on a stack of mats they had used in the prior training session to keep from hurting one another, but today would be used as part of the “landscape so to speak.” She had pulled out the bleaches against the wall by the door and pulled out some of the left over equipment that had been shoved in a corner when the place shut down. There were two balance beams with had been placed one opposite sides of the gyms, stacks of floor mats where places all around, though some had been used on the floor near the “obstacles” to break falls. Maia wasn't aiming to see anyone hurt at all.
I uneven bars sat on one side of the gymnasium while a parallel bars sat on the other. A vault sat not to far uneven bars and a spring board on the other side not to far from the a mat stack. She'd even pulled out the rings, parallel bars, and a long rectangular trampoline. All of this was to make things, a bit less easy, as trying to fight of youma on spinning cups hadn't exactly been easy. There were also, which probably seems out of place, balls of all sizes, bean bags, and pool noodles thrown about. The could be used as weapons much like rocks and branches, which many utilized in battle. She herself had become acquainted with trash can lids as weapons from time to time. Silently she hoped the set up wasn't too much, she hadn't done all this the first time.
Shang stood by the door with the little cat Sheena from last time at his feet. He was still worried for his sister who had spent three days in the hospital after having had a starseed ripped out and using all of her energy up. It was about a month ago and she seemed fine, but he was still worried. Hell after a day in the house, just a day, she'd gone out to partrol again.
Sheena looked up at the poor page, who seemed to be slightly out of focus and brush against his leg. “No need to be so nervous. This is all to make you a better knight right. For the good of you all. Okay.”
Shang smiled at the cat and tried his best not to laugh before looking down at his name tag. It read Shangri-la and there were more to be handed out over by Maia. He took a deep breath and waited for the other's to arrive.
Maia looked down at her phone, re-reading the message she had sent out. Her brother had sent out the same to any knight who name he could remember and spell from previous training session, so she was really hoping she had a decent turn out. Tonight would not be like the last night. The attendees would be split into two groups and would fight in a group, so to speak, against the opposing group. It would be more like order against chaos only lacking actually chaos.
Quote: The rp will open for a bit of meet and greet and exploration of the gymnasium until there is a decent amount of people after which the training session will be explained and it will begin.

Super Sailor Aster arrived to the gymnasium ready for some more combat training. After the events of the carnival, she knew she needed to step up her game in the Senshi business. It wasn't just the attacks on the carnival that she had faced that night, but the deaths of two of her closest friends, Desiree and Michael, in the parking lot and the disappearance of another close friend Ricky. It was a tough night for her, and it only taught her she needed to toughen up to match the dark times ahead of her.
She wasn't sure what was planned for the night ahead of them, but she couldn't take an idle seat any further. As she crossed through the gym's doors, she spotted a Senshi who she had assumed to organize the event and gave a small wave followed by a quick flash of the peace sign.
"Super Sailor Aster, Senshi of Sunflowers," she introduced, unsure if she needed to check-in to the training session. "What's the plan for the night?"

He had just 'awakened' with another Cat, and had no idea of what to do or anything, and then, things crossed his cellphone.
He shouldn't even have one, but...
The chibi senshi slowly peered inside like a little child lost and in a place they shouldn't be, before Chibi Massalia walked in slowly, looking around. He wasn't scared, but there were likely grownups, and he tried making himself look a little more presentable-- at least, as presentable as a little coyote-senshi could.
"Hello?"

Maia looked up with other's started to enter the gym and she stood up straightening out her fuku and making herself more presentable. Her brother was greeting people with quick hello's at the door and shuffling them towards Maia. She was the one running the session and she was the one with the plan for the evening. He just like everyone else was a participant.
"Sailor Maia, Senshi of Song. Thank you for coming. Here's a name badge and a sharpie. We found them very useful in the last session. I would like to wait for a few more other's to show up before I give the low down, but it will essential a group versus sparring session so to speak."
She smiled at the chibi coming in, though inwardly she was a little nervous of him. Chibi's weren't always widely excepted, but Maia had no problems with them. She'd rather know they were hearing, training, getting stronger and protected for the night than running around in the darkness with little to protect them. She knew they would learn and were often very eager something there side could do with a little more of, so she excepted them a long time ago and looked out for them as much as she could.
"Welcome," she said handing him a name badge and a sharpie, "right your name down and put it one your fuku please. I'm Sailor Maia, Senshi of Song. Feel free to mingle and explore a bit. We still have a bit of time to wait for the other's to arrive."

"I'm not going to attack a kid," Super Sailor Aster insisted upon spotting the Chibi Senshi enter the gymnasium. She wasn't exactly a maternal person by nature, but she couldn't feel right letting a child walk into combat and made a vow with herself to keep an eye on him during the training to protect him and make sure he stays safe. She took the Sharpie and scribbled on her name, "Super Sailor Aster", with little doodles of sunflowers in case it wasn't obvious by the look of her uniform. She smacked the sticker onto her chest proudly. "Be careful here, kiddo," Aster warned to the child.

"Thank you ma'am." He resisted lapsing into Spanish and wrote on his nametag carefully, putting his name-tag on. His name barely fit, but, that was how children's handwriting was, just about. He studied the adults carefully, blinking. "Hello." He nodded quietly. "Mi--" He stopped. "My name is Massalia. How do you do?" He was leery-- he didn't understand much of this-- and this was his second time powering up. At the mention of fighting, he blinked, tilting his head. "I fight with my idiot brother a lot." He offered helpfully. "Is that good?"

”Sheena!” the chibi called out once he caught sight of the cat, his eyes brightening as he made a beeline towards her. “Are you okay? You haven’t been hurt, have you?? I heard there were horrible things happening!”
Chibi Oberon squatted down in front of the kitty so he could be closer to her height, resting his arms on his knees to look her over before peering around the room at the others. He didn’t like the idea of other people getting hurt, and if there was a chance he could get in a little practice, well... that was better than sitting at home, grounded, when people were getting hurt and he could be doing something about it.
“Please stop running around,” Valhalla groaned in exasperation as Oberon took off towards the cat, not even bothering to raise his voice enough for the child to hear. There really was no point. It had taken him a little while to be convinced that Oberon might need to get in some more experience, and now that he had been convinced and they were there... well... he was starting to regret it.
“He’s going to get himself killed, running around like that...” he grumbled through gritted teeth to Ganymede beside him as he forced himself to pull his eyes away from his obnoxious younger brother to catch a glimpse of Maia.
“How are you feeling?” he asked just loud enough for her to hear him, not wanting to pique curiosities if she would rather not get into details with anyone. While he thought everyone should be warned of the dangers, he knew this might not be a very appropriate place.

Sailor Sisyphus wasn't a chibi or a kid but -- well, he might as well have been, creeping in the door and looking around the vaguely-familiar gymnasium. The brim of his hat was tipped low, knees pale and scrawny beneath the hem of his shorts, fingers knotted together at his side, and generally, he looked terrified. It wasn't so much the training as it was the other senshi -- Or maybe it was the cat that stepped in at his heel, looking around the room with narrowed eyes, taking in the assortment of strangers around them. Laoise scratched absently at the beads and feathers around her neck, and then looked up at her charge, letting out a vaguely-rude noise. "Well? Go talk to them." With that, she head butted his legs, which should have been useless, except he stumbled forward a couple steps. Obedient. He started, slowly, for Maia and the table, fumbling to put a hand out. "Um. Sailor Sisyphus..." He didn't offer his sphere. He never did.

Alfheim didn't need anyone to drag him along this time, though, the recent conflict at his wonder and subject of his autonomy as a separate entity from his family had him debating if he should come. Zia was Maia's friend, and he was half wondering if he should avoid the training session just to avoid her.
She didn't seem to be around, though, which made him visibly relax. The new squire was convinced of his own need to train with the carnival fiasco and upgrade, and he had answered Shang's invitation with more enthusiasm then he had responded to the last training session with.
That still didn't help the fish out of water feeling when he walked into the gymnasium. Especially since it seemed like the little kid to adult ratio was growing every time he walked into a group event. He edged his way over to the at least semi-familiar knight he'd been forced into acquaintanceship with earlier, giving a quick nod in Shangri-La's direction. "Hey!"
Sailor Chibi Columba had something of a terrible reaction to the carnival disaster she was trying to keep under wraps. While death and loss was horrible, she seemed to have a more intense reaction than she was expecting, which was especially problematic in trying to keep her secret from her sister and continually convince Irene she could take care of herself and didn't need to be told on.
One result was a resolve to train a lot harder than before. Goofing around on the playground wasn't going to cut it, and she was eager to show off what she could do, even though after the last training session she had gotten a stern talking to about biting other kids, whoops.
"I'm here to try again," She announced to Maia as she made a beeline for the name tag making and turning her hat backwards on her already scruffy head. She was under a lot of pressure to be cool what with this whole carnival thing still being obnoxiously traumatizing. Being scared wasn't cool.
She looked the place over, trying to spot other familiar faces. The kid she nearly cannibalized wasn't there but there seemed to be two new ones, and one was talking to Sheena. "I promise not to bite a single wimp this time," Was her solemn conclusion to the event organizer as her grabby hands went for a Sharpie. Sharpies were the best.

Maia looked to Aster and shrugged a bit, "not a lot of people will, but try not to get angry if one attacks you. There was a pretty eager chibi here last time. She's a little firecracker."
She looked back to Massalia, "I'm just fine. Thank you for asking. I hope you are well." She gave a small laugh at his next words and nodded. "Yes, that's good. You'll get a little more practice here tonight and you can look to the other's to help figure out what to do."
Sheena grinned when Oberon came into view and came up to her. She shook her fluffy head at his question and gave a smile. "I'm fine haven't been hurt at all, busy with all my duties and such. I heard about what happened, but I wasn't there so no worries."
She grinned, "I'm hear tonight because Maia asked me to come and keep the negaverse from being able feel us. So no party crashing tonight. Other cats might show up to help." She gave the chibi a nuzzle, but nugded him toward the other's. "Go on, mingle and meet the other's. This whole thing is for your benefit."
Maia smiled when she heard Vahalla asked her how she was. "I'm just fine. I can't be kept down for long. Beside me brother," she said pointing to the red head greeting people by the door, "is a doctor. He's been checking up on me ... to much," she said a little exasperated, but still she smiled.
"How are you feeling," she asked grabbing two names tags and sharpies for Val and Gany.
Maia turned and looked to another new comer with a smile, "please to meet you. Thank you for coming." She gathered another name tag and sharpie to hand to the boy. "I'm Sailor Maia. Feel free to mingle, as we are still waiting for other's to arrive, so we won't be beginning just yet."
Sheena looked to the cat who had come in and bumped another senshi towards the group and Sheena figured he must have been the cats senshi. "Hello," she greeted, "nice to see another fluffy face around. There were three of us last time."
Shang gave a nod to Alfheim, "Hey, thanks for coming, although I guess that's Maia line as she was the one who's organizing all this." He noticed that the prior page's outfit had changed and he felt a little strong.
"Congratulations on your new outfit," he said with a bit of a laugh, "I think I will be in this one forever. Don't let Maia see you. You're all new now, she might embarrass you unintentionally."
Shang looked back to the door as the chibi girl from last time announced her presence and charged in, "three already," he said more aloud than anything else, "I swear I feel to old for this some times."
Maia looked to Columba with a grin, the very same firecracker she had been referring to moments before. "Hello Columba," she said with a grin very tempted to hug the girl, but refrained from doing so, "its good to see you. I'm happy your going to try again."
She gave a small laugh, "yes, please try not to bit anyone." She handed over a sharpie to the girl. "Mingle with the other's okay? We're not starting just yet."Silent Spy Sorry for all the quote, edited to add a response to Carneli Novacracker Sorry for all the quote, edited to add a response to Carneli Guine Sorry for all the quote, edited to add a response to Carneli and be blue Sorry for all the quote, edited to add a response to Carneli

After just a brief pause, Sisyphus took the name tag and the pen, staring at them and moving very slowly to write his name down on one of them. His handwriting was impossibly tidy, neat letters that could have been printed out of a computer. More than just legible, it bordered on obsessive compulsive.
With that done, and the name tag stuck into place on his fuku, Sisyphus settled into a time-honored teenaged pastime: standing around awkwardly and not-quite making eye contact with anyone, and hoping desperately for something.
Even he wasn't sure if he was hoping for someone to come over and talk to him, or for everyone to just leave him alone.

Pompeii was once more becoming comfortable powering up and wandering the night looking for youma to fight or nega’s to stop… in theory at least. She was pleased to say that since she got the nerve to once more patrol she had not encountered anyone other than another knight. This was great for her mental happiness since the carnival really threw her for a loop, she knew that being a knight was a serious thing but she didn’t think she realized just how serious it was until she watched as people died, as energy was drained, and star seeds were ripped out. And yet somehow life goes on… She wasn’t terribly surprised when she got a call from Maia at work to tell her about the training session that the younger lady had planned. She knew that Maia had recovered physically from her time at the carnival and was even out patrolling shortly after her stay at the hospital but Pompeii wondered what kind of mental impact having your star seed ripped out had on a person. Curious as to the plan for the night Pompeii entered the gym and saw everything scattered around obstacle course style and she briefly wondered if that was what was going to happen. She watched as Maia greeted the other order members that had beaten Pompeii there and rather than interrupt she stopped by Shang and a guardian cat she had not yet met. “Hi Shang.” Pompeii waved shyly, unsure of what to really say to him. She nodded a greeting to the knight who was standing with him, ( Alfheim) ((will go back to edit to add more aobut current people there... in a bit ^^'))

Lassell, wandered through the gymnasium doors nodding politely towards Shangri-la who seemed to be content with standing by the door. He glanced around spotting Maia and headed in her direction all the while frowning at the fact that she was up and moving around when she was confined to the hospital for almost 3 days. But since then 2-3 weeks had passed and he was still worried about her. She worried him so but from the looks of it she was doing fine but he was more determined to keep an eye on her during this training round.
He was still unsure about her being up and moving around after her trip to the hospital but with her senshi life never took a break. But he ventured over and stood a bit in front of her "how are you feeling?" he asked in the most casual way he could. Not all the members of order knew they were seeing each other so he was determined to keep it business and serious.

Shang nodded to Pompeii, "Hey. Good to see you out and about. I know it's been a bit rough for everyone after what happened to training important and I think Maia might have made a house call if you hadn't showed up."
He looked to Alfhiem, "This is Pompeii of Saturn, one of my sister's trainees and teammates so to speak."
He nodded to Lassell as he made his way and before motioning to him, "he'd be another."
Maia looked up and noticed Pompeii talking to Shangri-la, so she decided to let her be for the moment, but she was very happy the other had shown up. It was odd how good could come from bad, and the good of the carnival was her strengthened bond with Pompeii, Lassell and Shang.
She smiled when Lassell walked in himself and came up to her his expression worried. She was use to this expression as of late, he and her brother gave her the same expression a lot lately. She leaned forward and gave him a chaste kiss on the lips, not caring about professionalism at the moment. "I'm fine," she said before dropping her voice down a little, though anyone close enough would still hear her, "my starseed is right where it belongs and I'm not going anywhere. I promise."
She really hoped it was a promise she could keep. Smiling once more she handed Lassell a name tag and a sharpie, "go mingle, okay. That is a big part of these sessions. Get to know your allies, you never know when you might need a bit of help."

Lassell, blinked in surprise as Maia kissed him briefly so much for his plan of being business and serious. Maia always got her way..but at the same time he appreciated the kiss. He nodded his head lightly as she dropped her voice a little "lets hope it stays there for awhile longer" he said before droppin g his own voice just enough for her to hear "but, if you need me just call and I'll be keeping and eye on you but I won't let it hinder my focus" he told her before he gave her a quick kiss on the cheek and stepped back taking the name tag and sharpie from her and returned to his professional side.
He wrote Lassell on the name tag and pivoted to go wander off to mingle.He glanced around and ventured over to where Pompei and Shangri-la were and glanced at the two "I'm still worried about her" he told them frowning briefly again before letting it return to a smile and glanced at the two "how have you two been?" he asked them before briefly nodding a greeting to Alfheim.
