'Parry. Dodge. Roll to the side.' Arianna went through all the manoevers in her head as she fought an invisible opponent. Already a thin sheen of sweat glistened on her body and she was panting heavily. Her sword glistened as it sliced through the air expertly. She did several back flips in a row to dodge differnt imaginary attacks.

Her training was aruptly cut off as a wave of cold water hit her head, causing her drop her sword. Looking up she seen Naomi standing above on the catwalk that surrounded the training area, with a water balloon in her hand. She was grinning like a cheshire cat as she aimed her last balloon at Arianna, which unfortunately missed.

Arianna growled angrily and glared at Naomi who nervously smiled and waved before running off with a very pissed off Arianna following her.

"I swear I didn't mean it!!!" Naomi yelled as she tore threw the mansion halls with Arianna hot on her trail.

"Yeah? And it'll be an accident when my foot finds its way up your ass!!" Arianna yelled back furiously.They ran into the living room and startled the other 2 occupents. They almost knocked Versie off of her ladder while she was putting up decorations and almost bowled over Raven adn Liz a little while later. The other girls just ignored them as they ran in circles around the house.

They finally stopped when Versie too out her gun and fired a warning shot out the open window. This effectively caused everyone to freeze in place.

"Thank you." Versie said with a sigh as she walked out of the room to get the party snacks.

"That was close." Raven stated with a sigh of relief.

"You tellin' me." Naomi said nodding her head. Liz just nodded and Arianna snorted.

Suddenly the door bell rang and Raven whooped in pleasure.

"Yeah! The party has begun!" She shouted while dancing around the room adn out to the door to answer it.
