The sun meeting didn't go as planned (no brownie points scored for fighting boring shadowlings) so Paige made a beeline for the training fields. Hopefully she could find more interesting opponents there, or perhaps she would find someone who needed some sparring practice?
She sent a text to everyone, summoning her sword and for now kept a lookout for anyone who might show up.

Kara was not tired. Soon they would have to get some sleep. Therefore, it seemed like a logical thing to do to go and find a way to tire themselves out. The easiest way to do so when off-duty was to go to the training fields and find someone to spar with. That was what they would do, then.
They summoned Delly on the way in, propping the flail's handle over one shoulder so that the heavy metal ball on its chain bumped gently against their back.
Are we going to fight? Delly asked eagerly.
That's the intent, Kara answered. They spotted someone who didn't appear to have a partner right now, and altered their path to make their way over to her. "Hello," they called out as they got in range. "Are you looking for a sparring partner?"

To pass the time Paige had been wacking a few of the dummies, but it just wasn't fun when they wouldn't hit her back. Then she spied someone walking towards the training fields. Score! Someone had turned up, their weapon already summoned. Paige beamed at this new comer, letting her own sword rest on the back of her shoulder
"Yup! You looking for one too? I'll be happy to spar"
Whirl mused in her mind.

"We're ready to go," Kara answered, and moved into a fighting stance, bringing Delly down and around, held slightly back to make it easier to start a good swing. Kara was often on defensive work, but that didn't mean she didn't need to practice combat skills.
Anyway, the otherwise sweet-natured Delly got steadily crankier if they didn't spar. The weapon liked a steady flow of Fear, and Kara's natural production was apparently not quite enough to keep her in a good mood. Kara preferred her weapon's cheerful state, really.
Judging by the way Kara held her stance, waiting for Paige to make the first move, Paige could wager she was a defensive fighter. Part of moon division perhaps?
'Everyone's stance could use work in your book.'
The sun stepped back, knees slightly bent and weapon held in both hands, pointed towards the ground, ready to either strike fast or move. "How about you make the first move?" She suggested, trying to allow Kara to work more offensively.

Kara gave that a moment's thought, studying the other to see if she was serious or if this was some kind of feint to get Kara to bring her defenses down. It was a genuine offer, she decided. "All right," she said.
She moved without warning, taking two rapid strides forward as she swung Delly back, then brought the flail forward in a one-handed overhand arc. The flail's heavy metal ball came over and around to thud into Paige's shoulder.
Kara certainly was fast, giving Paige little time to bring her sword up to guard. Though she managed to keep the flail from making a direct hit, she felt the large steel balls slamming into her shoulder. She was glad for FEAR shields.
She took a step to her right, angeling the blade to take a small slice out of her opponent's exposed side and stepping back to gain some distance.
Kara squeaked at the solid slice to her side, and lashed out with the flail in return. However, Paige was moving back already, and the flail barely made contact. "You're good," she remarked.
"Comes with experience." Paige replied with a slight smirk. "You're not so bad yourself." Then she was charging forward, light on her feet and swinging her sword, lunging forward and taking a nice chunk out of Kara's shield with a diagonal slice. . HP: 54 Damage: 10 Charge: 2/3
