Training Grounds

Hmmm...interesting fights goin on around here...could someone train me please? I need to touch up on my sword fighting skills...

Lone Wolf then draws his Sanctus Blade in hope of a challenge
 
Julius was resting after a day of hard training. He took of his boots and placed them near the small treasure chest containing the rest his belongings. He then removed the rest of his gear, left his sword on a table next to a bookshelf, and then decided to take a bath. He took a towel, soap, and some clean clothes to put on and went towards the bathroom. He finished after an hour, went towards the mirror, put on a white shirt and leather pants, and finally jumped on his bead, getting ready to sleep.
 
Lone Wolf looked around the training grounds anxiously for a challenge of an opponent who would be willing to fight him. He could feel the sword pulsing in his hand desperate to be used.

well...it looks as if you're to tired to challenge me Julius!

Anyone else!?
 
After resting for a few hours, Julius was ready for another training session. In less then an hour he had all his gear ready; his armor, iron boots, sword and chain mail. He then organized everything and then left the tent. Though he was concentrating on finding Shenorai and Arthvader, something caught his attention. A challenged was made to anyone who dared to face the man that has recently arrived. Julius couldn't leave another challange to slip just through his grasp, so he headed towards the man and formally presented himself.

"I am Julius, one of the Instructors of this camp. Are you the one looking for a fight."

Julius unsheathed his rapier on the blink of an eye, the sound of his sword cutting the air could be felt echoing all around them. Julius then played with his sword and soon he rested it on his right shoulder.

"You can fight me if you want, I have never backed down from a challenge and I'll never will."

Julius readied his weapon aiming it to his opponent.

"On guard!!!!!!"
 
Lone Wolf seeing this, backflipped within a split second of the sword being drawn.

"You are extremely proficient at sword fighting and magic i presume. But i'm sure i can match your skills at magic. I wish to train here and increase my skills. I would be honoured to fight you. Get ready"

Lone Wolf glowed yellow and white with the elements of thunder and holy and gripped his blade with courage and confidence. Lone Wolf waited for the first blow to see how fast and powerful Julius was.

"This will be fun"
 
Julius lowered his sword and stared to the ground. He then closed his eyes and focused his energy into his blade which began to glow with a yellowish silver aura.

"Aren't we a bit premature? The battle is just beginning and you want to use magic already? Keep up like that and you won't even last half a battle, regardless of your opponent."
 
{{OOkkay....my eyes have skimmed over everything in this thread so far, and I'm officially interested. ^_^}}

Zeria stepped forward, taking in the fresh air.

"It's pretty nice out. People fighting...it's quiet...I enjoy days like this"

She stretched and drew her Hellfire Blade, examining the dark crimson glow it emitted.

"Is anyone foolish enough to challenge the heat of my blade?"
 
((Is it okay if I join?))

Hudson was confused. He didn't know why he entered these training grounds, and he'd no idea of how he'd gotten here. But he supposed that it wouldn't hurt to practice and brush up on his skills. He hadn't even noticed that he'd had his hand on his blade as he walked past the already fighting combatants.

Timidly, he stepped up onto one of the rings and sheathed his blade, asking out "I don't suppose that there's anyone here I can train with?"

He was hopiing that he wasn't going to make an ass out of himself again like last time at that other place...
 
((Eh, go for it. This is pretty much a free-for-all for everyone; approved or not approved. :)))

Shenorai was walking about the training grounds once more. Instead of her swords in hand, though, she had a clipboard and a pencil, jotting down names on a list and keeping track of who was sparring with who. And speaking of sparring, the bounty hunter sighed and raised her voice to be heard by Arthvader and FFGuy.

"If you two are just going to stand around, at least stay in the sidelines! We don't want you to get your asses zapped by a stray spell, now do we?"

Shaking her head and jotting down more notes, she trekked across the scorched grass. There was some snow that had covered these grounds until someone had to use a fire spell and melt half of it. At least a fellow instructor was giving advice as he was sparring. She would've taken up a challenge against him herself, but then who would keep an eye on the other fighters?

"I don't suppose that there's anyone here I can train with?" a voice inquired nearby.

Shenorai glanced over and spotted a new face. Staying on the sidelines, she called over to him, pointing her pen towards the red-haired warrior.

"Zeria would probably take up that challenge. Since you're new, I'll have to remind you not to kill anyone here. We don't need to clean up any messes like that unless it's absolutely necessary."
...like with FFGuy? a voice teased.
...Leondra, don't tempt me.
 
((well, thanks for letting me join anyways))

"Zeria would probably take up that challenge. Since you're new, I'll have to remind you not to kill anyone here. We don't need to clean up any messes like that unless it's absolutely necessary."

"Thanks a lot m'am!"
Hudson replied

"...And you don't need to worry about me, i'll be good."
He added with a smile on his face. HIs blade at hand, he advanced slowly towards the already battle-ready Zeria. Hudson was shocked for a moment. It wasn't every day that he got to train up against beautiful female swordsman. And regardless of the fact that she was probably going to try to stab him, he was grateful. But he didn't suppose that his good looks and natural charm were going to work here.

"You're Zeria right? I'm not much for being the foolish type, but I would like a bit of training and practice. I'm always up for a huge challenge."

...And he drew his blade.
 
[sorry JA. that is kinda nooby i suppose. i only impied i was gonna use magic. i didn't say it;)]

As Lone Wolf watched this Julius lower his sword and watched in anticipation as the sword began to glow with magic.

Lone Wolf raised his sword in his usual style and leaped into the air and flipped towards Julius bringing his sword down. Not to strong. He first wanted to see how powerful his opponent was.

He wasn't worried about his magic running out too soon. He had trained in the arts to perfect it. Magic was what he specialised in now. nevertheless he WOULD run out at some point, so he was gonna go easy with the magic for the time being

(i'm not sure if i'm allowed to say if i can damage you. everything else i understand in RP'ing)
 
(No I am the one who decides if your attacks, spells included, are successful or not))

"Very well, let's see your power".

Julius spun his rapier like a fan with his right hand. He then ran towards Lone Wolf unleashing a barrage of devastating swift blows aiming at none vital points like shoulders, arms and legs. He swung his blade like a mad man yet retaining the elegance from his heritage as a noble man. While their blades crashed against each other, Julius went from an offensive strategy to defense, waiting for Lone Wolf to make a fatal error.

"Come on!!!"
 
Arthvader "Stop, Gilgamesh"

As Gilgamesh stopped his attack, He questioned Arthvader's decision.

Gilgamesh "Why did you have me stop my attack?"

Arthvader "I think we need to take a break. Hey, FFGuy, I'm going to see Julius fight, ok? We'll settle this later. Let's go, Gilgamesh."

Arthvader left his fight with FFGuy to view the battle with Julius and Lone Wolf.

Arthvader "This should be a good match, huh, Gilgamesh?"

Gilgamesh "Let's just hope Julius doesn't go as serious to Lone Wolf as he did to you last time."

Arthvader "Hey, remember that I put everything on the line in that battle to stop him from possibly destroying this area."
 
[thanks...and i take it only i can decide if your attacks and spells hurt me?]

Lone Wolf was unable to dodge the first few attacks of Julius' surprise blows. However after taking a number of hits from Julius, Lone Wolf got the feel of how he attcked and managed to dodge the last few attacks by backflipping out the way and raising his sword to block.

"Thank god...i've finally got a challenge...ok"

Lone Wolf then raised his blade and detached it so it was two separate blades again. Lone Wolf then rushed towards Julius and at the last second jumped and flipped in mid-air, landing behind Julius.

it was now that Lone Wolf became offensive and unleashes a flurry of attacks with his two swords towards Julius
 
What the hell?.... grr, I will deal with you later.

FFGuy walks over to the sidelines, semi angry but managing to hide it while weeding out the weak opposition and aiming his gaze at any 'worthy' foes present
 
Julius rushed forward eluding the offensive Lone Wolf and his devastating attacks. Those who could not be dodged, were blocked and deflected by his rapier. Julius was caught by a few light blows, leaving small scratches on his left shoulder pad.

Julius' cunning senses were suddenly triggered, he could hear the Lone Wolf's blades cutting through the air and passing close by him, who dodged those attacks by mere inches. Julius soon watched how Lone Wolf's right hand sword came from above. He kicked one of the broad log that was near his right leg and caught it with his left hand. He then blocked Lone Wolf's right hand blade with his rapier, and Lone Wolf's left hand sword with the log, parrying both attacks with much difficulty. Julius remained staring at Lone Wolf's eyes.

"Hmm quite a challenge...."
 
Lone Wolf leaped back in case Julius would try swiping at him whilst he was caught off guard...

Lone Wolf then smiled and lowered his sword. He then released the power of holy into his blade. Not a lot of MP was used, but enough to make the blades more powerful in attack.

Lone Wolf then raised his swords and swung them in a spiral and rushed towards Julius. The attack whilst rushing forward completly blocked any oncoming attacks because of the speed the blades were travelling at.

On the last second Lone Wolf used the momentum to swing the blades outwards and towards a seemingly defenceless Julius

"Damn...i was right...this IS fun"
 
Vex could now be seen approaching the training grounds. He heard of a place for warriors to train themselves among other, and decided to seek it out. When Vex arrived he had already noticed two other people fighting, both seeing equally talented. Yet it didn't look like they were fighting eachother at full force. He then noticed that a couple of people were watching these other two warriors fight.

"So it this a tournment of some sorts for training, or is is that these two fight is that inspiring, that everyone else is watching."

Vex then went into thought with himself, "It's been a while since I fought anyone, hopefully if I go aganist someone like those two i'll be able to last a few minutes."
 
(( O.O.C IF the person that i'm battling doesn't respond by tommorrow, then how about you and I battle, Soulcorrupter?))

His blade at the ready, Hudson slid his left leg back in a ninety degree angle, as he prepared for the first stroke. Unless he was utterly mistaken, fighting was a battle of wills.

This was only the first round.

He was already beginning to sweat lightly with anticipation. Or perhaps it was the heat of her blade. Keeping everything out of his mind except for this fight, this moment proved difficult. Another person, a man, had just entered the arena. And there was stregth about him too...

Na matter what happened to him today, he wqas going to have a good fight.
 
{{{Sorry, Serge. My dad wouldn't let me on the comp for long enough yesterday}}}

Zeria grinned with a "hn".

"Fine. I hope you don't cry when you lose. I just hate it when losers cry"

She drew her blades and whipped around.

"CROSS SLASH!"

The blast of X-shaped energy flew off of her blades and was sent barreling towards Hudson. Then, she took off towards him, ready for an upper slash, followed by a side slash.
