-FOLLOWING BLAKE-
Blake walked down the hallway, with a box in her hands, inside, the Katier, a nickname Ruby had given to Alecs' new weapon. There was a Katana, and a Rapier, on the handle, there was a button that folded the Katana blade, and showed the Rapier blade. It hadn't costed much, only 75 Lien, comparing it to some of the weapons, like Crescent Rose or Ember Celica, which would have cost at least 2000 Lien, it was a fairly simple design. She approached the door, but stopped in her tracks, a voice came from inside, though their Dormitory room was supposed to be empty. It sounded like.. singing? She only knew of one person that could sing, and that was Weiss, but she had only sung to herself in the shower. "It's not like I'm walking alone into the valley of the shadow of death, stand beside one another 'cause it ain't over yet, I'd be willing to bet that if we don't back down, you and I will be the ones holding the crown in the end. When it's over we can say "Well done", but not yet 'cause it's only begun, so pick up, and follow me, we're the only ones, to fight this thing until we've won. We drive on and don't look back, it doesn't mean we can't learn from our past, all the things we might've done wrong, we could've been doing this all along.."
The voice trailed off, and a boot clunk came from inside.
-FOLLOWING THE OC-
Alec stood up from the chair and stretched out. Weiss had been right, she wasn't letting him go easy, it was insane trying to block her attacks, she was just so fast. Alec pulled out a small piece of paper and started reading it, his schedule.
'10:00-1:00 LEARNING TO BREAKING DEFENSES,
1:00-2:00 PRACTICING BREAKING DEFENSES,
2:00-2:15 BREAK,
2:15-3:00 CHARGING,
3:00-5:00 PRACTICE FIGHT WITH WEISS'
Checking the clock, he nearly had a heart attack. 9:55. He picked up his weapon case, which held a Katier, named "White Fire", opened the door, and ran into Blake. "Whoopsie daisys! I'm sorry but I gotta run!" Alec jumped up from the ground and ran down the hall towards the training area. Since today was a weekend, they were able to train without many problems, the occasional CRDL annoyance but nothing more. Opening the door to the training area, he looked around, and seen Weiss leaning against a wall, writing on a piece of paper. "You're late!" Alec panted as he ran towards her. "Sorry! Lost.. track of time.." Weiss picked up her weapon and pointed it at him. "Don't be late again, otherwise, you get EXTRA LESSONS!" She scolded, Alec nodded and pulled out his weapon. All of the blades on White Fire were a fiery orange, while the handle and hilt were white.
Weiss stood in front of Alec in the middle of the training area. "So, if you are fighting someone with a longsword, which is the most common weapon, they will often be in a position like this." Weiss held her weapon in a diagonal line in front of her chest. "How do you break it?" Alec looked over Weiss, checking for weak points. "Well, you could just break their knee, they'll probably drop their weapon out of pain and you can plunge your sword into their anything." Weiss raised a brow at this, but nodded. "If you want to be a barbarian, sure. What if they have a shield?" Weiss grabbed a wooden shield and held it up. Alec grabbed the side of the shield and pushed it to the left of Weiss, leaving her wide open for attack. Alec tapped her stomach with the tip of his Katier. "Dead. Or, you can kick the shield and hit the person in the face with it, which will leave them stunned for a second or two, leaving you to stab them."Weiss nodded again, put down the shield, and picked up the paper once again, then started writing. "Alright, lets get you up and running until your break."
2:15 strolled along, and Alec was already tired. "You didn't bring water." Alec shook his head. "You must always bring water to training sessions, it will keep you hydrated." Weiss had gotten mad at Alec quite a bit, though he did show a lot of potential, he just hadn't placed it in the correct spot. "Okay, sit here, I'll go grab you some water." Alec followed orders, as Weiss left, CRDL had managed to sneak in, and annoy the boy. "Aw, is this little man training with his bitchy girlfriend? SOO CUTE!" He blocked out each and every taunt until one penetrated his defense. "I bet her family had to suck-" Alec had already gotten up and slammed Lark into a wall, head first. The remained of CRDL drew their weapons and moved to the center of the training area. "You might have taken down one, little boy, but lets see how you take 3!" Alec nodded and picked up his weapon. "So be it."
He charged into the pack of 3, using the thrusting motion taught to him, he caught Cardins' hand, and caused it to start bleeding. "Agh! Damnit! Get him!" The last 2 looked at each other, then back to Alec. Russel brought down his axe, nearly hitting Alec, Dove managed to hit him in the chest, the rage was building up, and he couldn't cage the beast. He was smacked silly until finally he came up with a plan. He jumped backwards, causing the two to stumble forward, Alec dropped his weapon and ran towards them, jumped, and kicked both of them in the face with his heel, he latched onto Dove and started pounding his face in, leaving him with a bloody nose and a black eye. Russel threw his axe, trying to hit Alec in the back with the head, he missed. Alec jumped off of Dove and charged Russel, punching him in the stomach as much as he could, then uppercutting his jaw until he hit the ground.
Weiss came back in with two bottles of water and looked around, with a jaw dropped. "A-Alec? What happened in here?" Alec picked up his weapon and sat back down on the bench. "Oh, nothing much, they came in here and annoyed me, then started making dirt marks on your family name, so I stepped in and defended your family honor." Weiss walked over to him and handed him a bottle of water. "You did?" Alec nodded. "Well.. thank you. I guess training is cancelled today, because it appears you know your way with combat." Alec fistpumped. "Hell yeah!" Not only did he get out of training on a nice afternoon, he also got to kick a few bullies' asses. What a great day!
