Combat Instruction

[heavenly_earth]

[One does not simply forget to post this section]

Open!

[everyonesconfidant]

[Poor Hiro seemed a bit lost. He knew this was the place to learn how to fight, but... who were the teachers? He really needed to learn how to use an actual weapon. Just swinging around something sounded like it was missing something...]

Re: Open!

[computations]

[As always, there was an eternal, judging glare from Sion.]

What is it that you happen to be looking to learn?

[everyonesconfidant]

[Hiro was kind of used to haughty glares (thanks, Yamato).]

Anything. I've never used a real weapon before, so I need to learn how to fight.

[computations]

A real weapon....

...you must have a preference. Gun, sword, lance; do you understand? You cannot learn everything at once.

[everyonesconfidant]

Ah, of course. Um... A gun or a sword might be helpful, though I'd also like something that's non-lethal in case something like the riots happens again...

[Nope, he's not doing a very good job at this preference thing.]

[computations]

I see. If it is a gun, I can assist you with that. You can probably find rubber bullets to equip yourself with if you ask the right people.

[everyonesconfidant]

And the right people for the rubber bullets would be...?

[computations]

Anyone at the shooting range would be able to assist you. Here, I can provide you with a fake gun and teach you how to more effectively use it in combat situations.

[everyonesconfidant]

That would be great! Thanks a lot. By the way, who are you?

Teacher right here!

[nofarplaneyet]

*Well, that looked liked someone in need of direction.*

Hey. You new here?

[everyonesconfidant]

Yep, that's right. I arrived here a few days ago. The day before the riots, in fact.

[It's a wonder he didn't get totally banged up.]

Are you one of the instructors?

[nofarplaneyet]

I am. Name's Auron.

[everyonesconfidant]

Auron, huh? Someone mentioned you a bit after I first got here. So, uh... where do we begin?

[nofarplaneyet]

Depends. Do you have any experience with combat, first of all?

[everyonesconfidant]

Well... technically, yes. At home, I fought by summoning demons and using skills from a program. But I've never fought with any actual weapons before.

[nofarplaneyet]

It's something. At least you know what you're in for. *Auron nodded toward the practice weapons.* Grab yourself whatever feels comfortable.

Open!

[vulgaris]

[Mina knew she had to come by soon enough, she couldn't stand the thought of being cooped up in her room for long. But...this seemed boring enough as it is, so she's just leaning back in her seat for a while, almost picking her ear.]

...what am I doing here...? Oh, right, combat instruction, whatever...

..or whatever. XD

[nofarplaneyet]

Did you need help getting combat instruction? *says the old looking guy*

f-ffffff :'>

[vulgaris]

Well, that's what I'm here for, ain't I? What, are you supposed to be a teacher or something, old man?

[nofarplaneyet]

*Oh, one of these kinds, hunh?* Or something. How much instruction have you had before?

[vulgaris]

I haven't had jack shit for instructions since coming here. I've been...moping around, more like.

[nofarplaneyet]

*Oh good, Jecht channeled into a girl.* Well, the time for moping is over. Go get a practice sword and we'll start.

[vulgaris]

[...a practice sword? She just pointed to the ones behind her, letting out a groan, grabbing and bringing it back to him.] This one? The hell am I supposed to do with it?

[nofarplaneyet]

I'm going to teach you how to use it. Hold it with both hands and settle into whatever stance you think feels natural for you.
