Roland was headed to the training grounds again, this time he didn't have his weapon summoned, instead he was busy winding tape around his hands. Peyton had offered to work on a project and asked if he wanted in and of course he said yes. The only requirement was that he meet her on the training grounds and not bring his weapon.
"Wonder why no weapons."
<< I dun know but does that mean I can be in my golem? >>
"No, I'm pretty sure when I put you in there I lose half the perks you give me. And we're on the training grounds. With Peyton. I need you in here not out here."
There was a distinct HUMF in the back of his mind.

Peyton was already there, her own hands taped up, petite frame clothed in a pair of jogging shorts and a loose tank top. Her coat, new and improved, was draped over the head of the nearest dummy. She was bouncing on the balls of her feet, hair in it's high pony tail bouncing along with her. Her usual training routine had been finished for the day, she was stretched out, limbered up, and her heart rate was at it's peek. As her Mist buddy showed up the dainty Sun was ready and raring to go. "Thanks for helping!" The bouncing ceased, and a big grin was tossed Ro's way. "Allan gave me the green like for my specialization, and this is step one." Personal and intensive hand to hand combat, be it weaponless, with runic gear, or any thing she might find in her immediate surroundings. The latter two would come a little later. Right now she was working on polishing and strengthening an already existing base in brawling.

Roland wasn't too different, a pair of baggy gym shorts, and an oversize white tshirt. His hair pulled back in the short pony tail to keep it out of his eyes.
"You know I'd be down to help regardless. Friends and Moon deals." He cracked his knuckles one more time before pausing beside her new jacket eyebrow raising. "Promotion huh?" Turning back he grinned, "Just promoted and you're starting a specialization? Very nice." Moving closer he held out a hand reaching out to bump knuckles with the smaller Sun. "Well let's see what new tricks you've got coach."

"Yep!" The grin widened with obvious pride. "About a week ago." Those closest to the dainty Sun knew just how ambitious she was. She'd been planning out a specialization for months now, just waiting. Knuckle bump was returned, and she gave him a few seconds to get a little distance, but she was ready to dive right in, and did so as soon as she figured he was ready. It had been a while since she'd had to rely on her own two hands for self defense of brawling, but it was a little shocking how easily she fell back into it. There was nothing classically trained about the way she moved, but regardless, one couldn't argue it wasn't effective. She dashed in, coming in low, and brought a taped fist up to bury it in her Mist buddy's stomach, before hopping back a step or two and bouncing on her toes, hands up and ready. HP: 60/60 DMG: 10

"Well congrats Pey, you deserve it, you work hard." He grinned stepping backwards turning to the side arms raise to try and protect himself from the oncoming attack that would surely happen.
Even turned to the side she still darted in, weapon or not she was quick and her fist landed in the side of his gut before he could dip down to make a block. He didn't let it slow him down, he lunged after her falling short with a punch but spinning about to catch her in a quick quick with his boot.HP: 40/50 DMG: 8

The kick was a surprise. Here on the island, so dependent on weapons, they seldom seemed to use their feet for much, but that was what this training was all about, right? Adaptability, resourcefulness, using whatever you had to attack, and not relying so very much on their partners. Warrick gave an almost disgruntled snort, and couldn't help but chuckle inwardly at him. This isn't about replacing you. This is about survival and being the best we can be.He wasn't a huge fan of her decided specialization, but with every reassurance he seemed to mellow a little more. Recovering from the kick, Peyton turned sharply, throwing a kick jab at his shoulder with her left fist before coming in for something a lot hard with her right, aiming for his ribs. HP: 52/60 DMG: 11

Roland wasn't entirely unaware of how to fight without his weapon, his weapon made fighting interesting to begin with and he learned quickly in his first years as a hunter that untill Sylvia could be split, that he needed a way to fight closer up. It wasn't practiced, it wasn't clean, it was hodge podge and just throwing all his force behind blows.
It also meant not knowing how to defend from the same kind of attacks. Two sudden blows caused him to stumble back. He didn't let that stop him though, he shook off the dull thump that he could still feel pulsing in his side as he stepped in jabbing at Pey, mostly a fake as he swung a wide swing from the left to catch her off guard.HP: 29/40 DMG: 8

There was a reason Peyton kept coming back to Roland for sparing. The guy was consistent, and he was tough. He could hit hard, but more importantly, he could take a hit and keep on moving. It was perfect for Peyton, because she needed the challenge, she craved it. It meant she could go all out with the Mist, and he'd return the favor, no hard feelings. He swung, heavy fist coming around to catch her in the side of the face, and it forced her head back, made her turn, stumbling, but she recovered quickly. Head snapping up, she lunged, small fist snapping forward as she threw her body into it. Not as solid as the last hit, but solid enough to feel it through her hand and up her wrist. HP: 44 DMG: 5

The next blow was lighter, Peyton slipped up. Every time they fought it was the same, close and rough neither one really ahead most of the time. This might be the chance to change things or bring them more in his favor.
His next punch fell short though, Peyton dancing out of his reach causing him to curse softly under his breath, "C'mon get back here!"

Peyton snorted. "Well, you asked for it." When she came at him, it was fast an hard, one tiny fist cocking back and rushing forward in what would have been a wild hay maker if her aim hadn't been spot on. It connected with his chin, and the shock was enough to send a twang of pain all the way up her arm. Her knuckles would be bruised later, that was for sure, but god did it feel good to just let loose and brawl. HP: 41 DMG: 13

The thundering punch sent him stumbling backwards head cocked up at the sky as he tried to gain an idea of which way was straight ahead, she landed the blow flawlessly.
Instead of retaliating he simply stood his ground rubbing his chin pouting, "When I said come over here I didn't mean 'come over here and break my jaw' okay?"HP: 11 DMG: 0 dork

"Gotta specify that sort of thing," she teased, grinning at him. A broken jaw would have been a hard thing to pull off in the middle of the training field with it's damage dampeners. Even with their shields lower without their weapons active. Banter was just dandy, but this was important, so Peyton darted in again, arm cocked back. She threw a punch at his right shoulder.

Roland huffed at the other hunter scowling ever so slightly down at her as she teased him. "Oh come on now, you know what I meant don't lie. You think I'd ask you to punch my jaw in?" He knew she was right though deep down, they where completely fine.
She darted in again and Roland took the blow to the shoulder he shuffled backwards hands raised hoping that what ever she tried next he'd be able to catch her.HP: 3 Defending: 5

"Oh come on, Roland." She saw the scowl, heard the tone, and she gave him an impatient look. The punch to his shoulder was followed by a second, though his hand was there, lessening the blow. HP: 41 DMG: 7

His hand caught her fist, but it was already too late. His shield wibbled a bit and was mostly gone as he stumbled backwards falling into the dirt just like he ended up the last time they had a spar.
Still laying there he sighed looking up at her, "Wasn't there a time where I could win these things?"
