[b]A flick left, a flick right. Duck, sweep, thrust. Spin, kick, slash.[/b] Two figures moved at speeds beyond human ability to watch. Merely blurs to most of the Dojo, the two sparring in one of the courtyards fought with inhuman grace. Hands holding swords and knives blurred, the clash of metal on metal fell like rain across the small area. Clad in dark armor, only one of the suits of the combatants was identifiable. Shadow moved like liquid, dancing around her foe. The other was like a rock, catching each of Shadow's thrusts and slashes no matter where her opponent was. With a flourish, the unnamed figure sidesteps one of Shadow's thrusts, only for Shadow to turn and kick the foe away. Sliding to a stop a few meters away, a woman's low chuckle fills the quiet. "You've gotten lazy, Shadow." "Hah, so have you, Blade. Whateley's made you soft." "Hah!!! As if. When was the last time you went back to the Before?" "......" "My point exactly." The two shed their armor as they banter, Shadow's melting away to reveal her in her standard suit, and Blade's to reveal Drow in a Hello Kitty t-shirt and blue jeans. Stowing their weapons in a similar way, the duo sit down together into chairs formed of shadows. [spoiler]Open!!! Feel free to fight or talk!![/spoiler]
