Pulling a pair of scuffed up dress shoes from his closet Matt flop down on his bed and tied the laces together before picking up the necklace from the dresser and headed out of his room. He didn’t say anything to anyone as he continued on his way to the cafeteria spending only a moment to pick up a somewhat questionable muffin and a carton of oj and headed back out the door again. The sun was still rising only glimpses of its rays were showing in the sky as he sat down on a bench and ate the muffin ignoring the dryness in its taste. He watched the sun rise letting half the large glowing orb to reach the sky from the earths crust before tossing his trash away and heading towards the training room.

It was still pretty quiet around; a few people scurried here and there while others where slumped sleeping where they were likely some result from some party somewhere. This meant it was pretty empty in the training, just what Matt wanted as he pulled off the necklace and summoned his weapon. The two large butterfly ends gleamed in the light he took a stance, swinging it repeatedly in the same down to up motion. With no one around, no one would laugh at his pathetic attempt to train or the fact that his weapon looked like an oversized kids fairy wand.

Zascha had been at the training grounds for a while now. It seemed like most of his time was spent here honestly. Class rooms and meetings just didn't suit him. They made him feel out of place. Although it was constantly drilled into his head that he should be at these things.

He needed a class for how to use a cell phone. Although he could probably weed out a bit of a tutorial from Harlow later. Though as to how much learning to use the damn thing there would actually be was up in the air.

Though it seemed he was getting better at this whole not sticking out like a sore thumb thing as an unfamiliar Hunter strolled out, whipped out his weapon and started swinging it about. Zascha merely sat there on a bench watching. A half eaten sandwich in his hand as green eyes watched.

The weapon this Hunter bore was certainly an interesting one. He wasn't sure if it was a spear or some kind of stick or what. But it was pretty, kind of sparkly if caught in the right light.

Just cause it's pretty doesn't mean its a good weapon. Gothsmog huffed.

Jealous? I could buy you some glittery make up to slather on...

Don't you ******** dare!

He chuckled to himself, taking another bite of his sandwich. A grin tugging at the corner of his lips. "Ya know, if that's the only move you know you might be screwed."

Matt turned to the voice he heard as a curse rang through his head, s**t of course if he thought he was a lone he wasn’t. Of course his luck parade was rained out like always and all the main attraction bailed due to lightening. Instead of doing the typical macho thing of showing off some cool special move that likely belonged in something on TV Matt dug the end of the one of the spear tips into the floor and leaned against it.

“Yea well I am already ******** in battle as it is may as well practice on going out in style somehow, the name’s Matt and this here is the prettiest weapon you will ever see and pretty useless in my hands for the most part.” Leaving the spear in the ground Matt walked over the edge and sat down looking at the guy as he picked away at the bottom of his braided hair. Kasi of course was screaming a hell storm of words in his head but he merely grinned at the guy as he ignored her. Of course this just made the situation worse for him and later he was sure to regret it at some point but for now whatever.

“You wouldn’t happen to know anything about spears and want to spar? Obviously its not my forte I am more of a doctor then fighter.”

"Hey, I'm all for going out in a blaze of glory." He kind of felt bad for the guy if he had resigned himself to that kind of thinking. Hell, even the worst fighters could be useful if they just put a little practice in. But then Zascha had to remember that not everyone was suited for fighting. Although it kind of came with the job.

"Zascha." Green eyes turned towards the spear still stuck in the ground. If he did that to Gothsmog she'd never let him hear the end of it. Finishing off his sandwich, Zascha dusted the crumbs off of his gloved hand before standing up from where he was seated.

"Spears? Oh yea I know about spears. As for sparing sure I got some time to kill." Holding out his right hand Zascha summoned Gothsmog's weapon form. A spear just a few inches taller than him with a tapering blade. "Doctor eh? Well then you should have a steady hand and some precision yes? An ability to work under pressure. Useful assets to have."

“I wish I could say it was blaze of glory, more like shuddering doom around here.” A wide grin spread on Matts face as he crossed on leg of his knee ignoring the thought and old ache of things being stabbed into his chest and the memories of losing everything to blackness. It was slowly starting to become something really familiar to the doctor in a rather terrifying manner but it was not something new at Deus. At some point he was sure to forget that it was even something to fear and when he really did die he wouldn’t be able to tell, a rather maddening thought.

As the hunter finished his sandwich Matt got back up on his feet, Kasi voice still screaming something that was equal to a the pitch of a banshee’s yell. Pulling her up he stood there in a defensive stance.

“Steady hand yes, precision with small things yes but I have to admit something as large as this is a little out of my realm. It’s like having an oversized scalpel with two pointed ends instead of one.”

"Yeaaa doom seems to be the running theme of Deus." He rolled his head side to side, giving his shoulders a little stretch. If he didn't limber up that pain in his shoulder would return with a vengeance. Not that he didn't have a nice scar to constantly remind him, or the tingling in his fingers.

Zascha laughed as he took his own defensive stance, spreading his feet just a little bit apart with his toes pointed out. The end of Gothsmog's shaft behind his right thigh while pointing her main business end at the Doctor. "Well Doc, I wouldn't want to go into battle against a Titan with a scalpel so might as well learn to utilize that weapon to it's full potential."

Get ready.
I always am you a*****e. I swear you loose to that glitter stick and I won't talk to you for a month.
Good then maybe I'll have some peace and quiet.

Still ignoring the constant screaming from Kasi, Matt pulled the spear up from the ground and took a moment to swing the spear around him reminding himself of the heavy weight at each end.

I get it I get it calm down, I won’t do that again I promise. Ok mostly promise.

Damn right you owe me….oooowwweee mmeeeee. You know he probably has better skill than you Matt.

I know, that’s the point.


Taking a stance with his feet also spread apart with one foot pointed towards Zascha and the other turned perpendicular. It was obvious that he had little clue to what he was doing but he kept a rather optimistic smile plastered on his face.

“That is very true, a scalpel would be like trying to stab with a tiny needle and yea….. I do need to get better its why I keep coming here hoping to learn a thing or two at least. Kinda like the idea of hands on learning versus calling it practice.”

"Right. Always been a hands on man myself." Zascha liked the idea of sparring with others on the island. Though he always seemed to run into those who fought with spears himself. Eventually he'd need to track down some other weapon type wielders and practice with them.

But it was time for enough talk. The Doc wanted hands on experience with sparring and so Zascha would give it to him. "No holding back now, give it all you got. Cause your life does depend on it." The corner of his mouth shot up into a deep smirk before the Moon hunter swung his back leg around which propelled his large body in a circle. Bringing the shaft of his spear whipping around his body in an attempt to give Matt's ribs a good smack.

As Zascha mentioned about being serious Matt immediately took a defensive stance. Not that it did much good as the spear whipped around the hunter and smacked into Matt’s side of his ribs with a sickening crack noise. Immediately his breathe shot out from him as he tried to gasp at it back only to feel his lungs tighten in pain.  That was going to leave a mark if not a crack rib somewhere he thought as he returned a dark smirk to Zascha.

Lunging forward Matt slipped the top of the spear past Zascha ear as if to give the impression of completely missing his shoulder by going to high. Leaning to his side with the middle of the spear tucked under him arm he pulled his entire weight down in a quick motion onto Zascha’s shoulder.
