Alexis watches the two walk away and snaps her book closed. Was she invisible or had they just blatantly ignored her? Either way she wasn't happy maybe I should leave them alone. Who needs a squad when I have myself to talk to? Plus they'll just hold me back anyway, this is what you get for trying to be social Alexis grits her teeth and walks the opposite way. Screw people, screw squads. Solo was the way she rolled and that's how it'd stay for her.

He shrugged a little, thinking that he never expected to find someone so full of life here. He was happy though,that his squad leader was full of more life then him. He almost smiled a little when he heard he didn't have to worry anymore ''Ah I see...Maybe if we go where we rest up we can find the other members of our squad'' He was never eager to met new people, but for once he actually wanted to. He nodded as she walked off and followed her walking beside her.He saw they walked by someone but he didn't think much of her, she seemed to have walked the other way from them so she must of had an idea of were she wanted to go.

Zah was very impressed. This girl was holding her own against him, making him glad that he had a valuable teammate. However this close range fight was enough to gain information on his opponent. Without much time, he quickly dispersed his Titanium blades and made Osmium ones, he pointed then at an angle behind him that would send him higher than Isthia but also avoiding shurikens. He fired and he was suddenly higher than Isthia, however he was nearly at ceiling level so for him and her it was impossible to go further. He was ready to strike, however due to his Osmium blades weight, he had to improvise further. he pointed them to his side, angled them a bit, and fired his sheathes. This not only sent him flying at her at very fast speeds, but also increased his spinning speed and strike force. Combined this made the attack fast and hard hitting.


@ResonantStorm

Isthia pushed the shurikens up with her palm, so that she gripped them between each of her fingers. She gathered her threads, unleashing a quick blast of wind as she kicked off the floor with her right foot, launching herself to the left to dodge the man's attack. Simultaneously, she slashed forwards towards the man's chest with the rapier held in her right hand as well as kicking towards him with the foot she'd used to kick off from the floor.

Zah had fully expected this to happen. He stopped his attack by firing  shots in the opposite direction to stop his momentum. He then blocked her sword as she went for the chest strike, then grabbed her leg and threw her down to the ground with such force that she bounced off the ground a bit. He then landed and roved his left Osmium blade deep into the ground next to her head. He then put his left foot on her stomach, and with his right foot he kicked away her sword. He then pointed his remaining sword at her neck. At this point he already had all corners covered, had her pinned, de-armed her, and basically had her checkmated.

Isthia was flung to the ground, fairly certain she felt something crack in her back - it didn't hurt that much, so it was unlikely anything was broken - and opened her eyes to see the man holding his blade at her neck. She had felt Lament leave her hand, and glanced left, noting the blade in the ground there. She still had her shuriken, but she'd have to be careful using them in this situation. This would take subtlety - she couldn't roll, or parry his blade without hers. Only her threads could help her here. She started gathering threads while remaining as still as possible, before releasing the threads in a massive gust of wind, pushing the man on her upwards towards the ceiling but leaving her free to move. Isthia leaped to her feet in a fluid motion the moment the man was distracted, releasing the shurikens she held between her fingers and flinging them all towards the man, and began to gather her threads again.

Cyrell Cleford


They were fighting good. The girl seemed to be fending herself of Zah's attacks. Cyrell acknowledged her for that. He knows that Zah is very powerful as he was once the best weaver at the german base. The girl, Isthia threw shuriken threads at Zah, one veered of direction and headed directly towards Cyrell's face. The Shuriken was about to hit him when he catches it with his two fingers. He noticed that Isthia was trying to distract Zah while she gathers more threads to to either attack or make another sword, she could possibly do both.

 

[Space_Kaiser]

Zah stood his ground in the massive burst of wind. The gust was strong, and if it had been any other blade, he surely would have been sent flying. However at this point in the bout, Zah was guaranteed victory. The moment he was able to pin an opponent at least once in a bout, the match was practically his. Main reason why? Because once he has pinned his opponent he's essential saying, "I know enough about your style to nearly counter it completely, i suggest you give up." And the case was the same with Ruby and Isthia, however the latter was proving to be a bit more tedious to work with. Now he was at his point, not to where he would go all out, but to the point where he would actually put in more than half of his effort.


In the end though his blade was taken out of the ground, but he wasn't sent flying due to how long he had remained in her. He easily blocked the incoming shurikens as they bounced off his Osmium blades, which he noticed needed some repairing so he tempered the metal. Then he noticed she was gathering her threads. Zah knew if he allowed that to happened, he would have to start from square one. He then pointed his blades behind him, shooting the sheathes and kicking off at the same time giving a huge amount of speed, leaving the ground of where he was standing rippled and cracked. He approached Isthia in the blink of an eye. He then dispersed his right blade and punched her straight in the gut, before reequipping his right Osmium blade.


This in turn stopped her from gathering her threads to which he grabbed her arm, lifted her up in the air, and smashed her against the ground on the back once more. He then dug his left Osmium blade under her arm, put his left foot on her stomach, put his right foot on her right arm, and pointed his right Osmium blade at her neck. "Before you try to pull anymore stunts, i suggest you concede. At this point i have you blocked and covered, making landing a hit on me all the more difficult. This is checkmate for you."

Faux couldn't help himself but let a small grin take over his face. He was honestly impressed but didn't want to say much. The thought of perhaps sparring with whoever the man before him was crossed his mind but he shrugged it off as the fight earlier had exhausted him - most of his stamina was drained

"You never did get to meet the rest of are members did you? Hopefully they all had the same idea as you then we can all get acquainted." she was hoping that everybody in her group would be able to get friendly with one another. It was best to establish good relationships before they went on any missions since she thought that if everybody already knew each other by name things would go more smoothly. As they had been walking another person had passed them by. She paused for a second. They seemed to be in a bad mood. "Hey! I've never seen you around here before! You ,must be a new recruit, right?" she approached her with no hesitation and still smiling "What's up sourpuss? You can't find your squad?" she tilted her head slightly as she questioned her about why she was so upset.


@Cheesemick @Katie Jensen (I swear Katie I wasn't going to ignore you! I just wanted to avoid writing too much.)

 

[Katie Jensen]

Alexis looks up as someone talks to her instantly something switches in her head so they weren't ignoring you. Change to social mood, you've observed enough people to know how to be social. Alexis blinks a few times and then laughs nervously "I was looking for the leader of squad three but it can wait, I don't want to trouble anyone." She stretches her arms out and yawns. She had to make a good impression on people, she didn't want these people treating her like her parents had.


@TaraSobiki

 

[Cheesemick]

Grim stopped as Maddie stopped to talk to this person walking by,he waited to see what was going on. She then mentioned she was looking for the leader of squad three! She seemed to be new so Grim wondered if she wanted to take a tour with them. He was interested in getting to know her. He stood there and waited to see what they did next.


@TaraSobiki


@Katie Jensen

 

[Mazz]

Maddie stared at the girl for a minute,giving her a look over quickly before breaking out into another grin. "Trouble? No not at all! Actually I'm the leader of squad three. Maddie Orch, a fire weaver at your service!" she bowed, a chuckle following once she raised her head."Oh and this guy over here is Grim. We were actually in the middle of taking a tour of the place before encountering you." she said, giving Grim a slight nudge to signal him to introduce himself. That was two of her members located now she had to find the rest of them it  would probably prove a challenge to find them but nobody said i wuld be easy. Where was the fun in that anyway?


@Cheesemick @Katie Jensen

 

[Cheesemick]

Yea it was no trouble at all to Grim either, he was glad to have bumped into a member of his squad,he though to himself agreeing with Maddie. Maddie nudged Grim,he wasn't sure what to say ''Uh...'' He just kinda nodded at her. He stood there straight with his hood up and his mask on like always.

(I'll admit I'm not thrilled with the way you handled the end of the fight - I understand it's happening quickly, and I'm fine with you winning, but you didn't give me much freedom to at least fight how I wanted after I recovered from your previous hold.)


Isthia glanced up at the white-haired man, and raised an eyebrow. She wasn't particularly winded or tired - this was just a friendly inter-squad duel, no need for strenuous effort - and she was hardly going to go out of her way to hurt any of the people she was going to be working with. She spoke to the white-haired man; "Very well, I concede. It's your victory." And then, muttering almost silently to herself so nobody else heard, a small reference, "Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya." She smiled, and stood up. "I never caught your name."

(You can still fight back, never said you couldn't just suggested you didn't. I mean he did have to fight back to back battles after all. Also i should note that like i said he was half trying and that's barely at that, he only did it to settle the fight quickly.)


He shook his head and rubbed the back of it, dispersing the blades. "Sorry if i hurt you, i kind of got a little carried away." He said with a nervous smile. "My name is Zah Drachen, it is a pleasure." He said putting out his hand

''Um....would you like to....I'm also a member of squad....Uh'' Grim just shuffled behind Maddie slowly,awkwardly, they were roughly the same height ''Chief is she coming with us?'' He whispered to her quietly.

(What's done is done, and the fight was dragging on a little anyway. No hard feelings.)


Isthia took the white-haired man's - Zah's - hand, allowing him to help her get up. She retrieved Lament, her rapier, and smiled at him. "I'm fine. Only my pride is wounded." Sheathing her blade at her hip, she picked up the bag she had left by the bench she'd been sitting on previously, leaning against the wall with her bag's strap over one shoulder.
