Spars were come and go. Some days, the training fields were filled with teams and wandering hunters working out, usually during prime hours of the day, and other times it was dead. The snow storm hadn't made anyone without a thick coat and sweaters even dream of being outside, let alone train for any amount of time. The ground was slick and parts of the training field were still covered. While some could argue it made for realistic training, hitting the gym just seemed like a better alternative.
Melvin loved the cold. It was such a long time since he had seen that much snow let alone got to enjoy it. The day was brisk and the sun shined on the white power making it glimmer and strain the eyes.
Out on the clearer areas of the field, he dusted off a dummy and started to dig it up, getting it cleared away for target practice. After he got it uncovered, he took his hands out of his cloves and blew on them a few times.

Training was part of a routine, even in the snow. Granted, he wasn't exactly comfortable in cold weather, not used to it after living in Florida for years before being recruited by Deus. He could layer up, guard against the chill, but he still didn't really enjoy it, at least not unless he was doing something suitably entertaining at the same time, and training just wasn't that entertaining, usually. He had his hands buried in his pockets, scarf pulled up to keep his nose and mouth warm, and was once again thankful for his taste in boots as acceptable foot wear. His expression, half hidden as it was, did not appear terribly pleased as he trudged through the trampled snow towards the training field. Honestly, he'd rather expected it to be empty, it was how he'd found it any number of times now, weather as it was. It was a surprise seeing someone else already there, someone he was pretty sure he'd met before, however briefly. Melvin, the workaholic he'd found asleep in the library. Drawing one hand free, he offered it up on a show of greeting as he drew nearer. "Afternoon."

Melvin perked up when he saw the other man and has to really narrow his eyes to remind himself that the feeling of familiarity wasn't just him but he actually met this man once before.
"Been a while. I barely noticed you. Then again wasn't really perky before. How have you been? Bracing the snow to train?"
He gestured to the dummies before them. "Have fun digging one out. They should have left shovels."

Zeke flashed a sedate grin. "Something like that." He used to be accustomed to snow. When had he lost the knack for dealing with it? "Gotta be able to handle all terrain, right?" He glanced down at the snow covered dummy, then back up, brows arched. "Or, I could see about going up against something a little more animated than wooden dummy." It seemed the most logical alternative.

"Well, I might not know any dance moves but I could certainly move a little if you want to spar. I do like improving my aim."
He held up Saliva in one arm, smiling at a chance for a surprise spar.

"Certainly beats training dummies." Zeke chuckled, pale eyes flicking to the odd looking firearm before jumping back to the blonde's face. HE flashed a lazy grin as he summoned his own weapon, the chain coming off the end of the axe hanging over his shoulders.

He looked the weapon over. Ranged. Axe. Bladed weapons sucked hard. He really would need to do some fancy footwork in order to keep the distance he preferred. Guns were obviously ranged weapons and up close lost a lot of their advantages. Saliva wasn't a shot gun after all.
"Alright." He said as he stepped back step by step and gestured to him. "You have the floor. Let's start."

He grinned at the gesture, and there was something not entirely nice about it. "It would be my pleasure." A sudden jerk of his arm, and the axe slipped from his fingers to cut through the air just past Melvin's left shoulder. Close, but not quite close enough. Nor would it catch him on the return as the Mist yanked on the chain to jerk it back to him. HP: 50 DMG: - WOW SON CHG: 0/3

He jerked back, eyes wide as he heard the wind brush by as the weapon cut through the air far too close to his face. It was a blessing it didn't hit in him in the head, and sidestepping, he took a breath just from his heart jumping up into his throat.
Turning, he pointed and aimed Saliva. "My turn." He fired, the shot popping close to Zeke's left arm. Frowning, Melvin tried to line his sights better. HP: 60 Charge: 1/3 Dmg: 2

He jerked at the sound of the gun firing, but the shot still grazed his shoulder, eating away at his shield. It had him staring at the gun itself, at how strange it looked, before he adjusted his grip on Lagertha and rushed in again. This time he had his balance, his aim was true, and he brought the bigger of the duel blades down in a heavy handed arch across the front of the Life hunter's body. HP: 48 DMG: 13 CHG: 1/3

A direct charge was hard to avoid, and just as he moved in, Melvin moved back only to meet a wall of sharp blades that sparked against his shield like a chainsaw on asphalt, eating away at his energy and causing him to stumble back as he shielded his front with Saliva at the forefront.
When he got space and he felt the blade move, he turned the barrel right at Zeke and fired right into his chest.

The blast knocked him back, and he was hitting the ground before he even knew what had happened, the wind very nearly knocked out of him. "s**t." He hadn't been expecting that, and that was a mistake. He grabbed for the chain hanging off the end of the axe handle, and with a flick of his wrist he sent it swinging at the other hunter's ankles. A distraction to give himself time to bounce back up on his feet. HP: 34 DMG: 2 CHG: 2/3

He jumped back, but gaining distance was not an disadvantage for him. Taking deep breathes to keep his heat from racing from the previous attack, he aimed again. "Damn your weapon is scaring coming at you."
He lined up again, not hard since Zeke had fallen back, and fired again.
"I'd get up quick." He called out to him, Saliva glowing a acid green. HP: 45 Charge: 3/3 Dmg: 17

Getting up was a bit of a challenge when Melvin's weapon had a hell of a kickback when it smashed into his chest. It knocked the wind out of him, eating away at his shield, and he'd only managed to get his elbows on the ground before it'd hit him again. He tried to swing the ax at him, tried to utilize the chain hanging from the long handle, but he hadn't even managed to catch his breath again, and the blades went wide. HP: 17 DMG: - CHG: idek

He could have waited, but then it wouldn't be like a real fight.
He fired again.
