[IC] Academy of Heroes and Villains

Connor returned to watching the match, but it was soon over. He got out a notebook, the same one he had been writing things down in on the first day, flipping to a new page.

Kalinda sighed. She didn't know who would be good to fight, but it appeared some people had already chosen who they were going to fight. The trouble was, she didn't know much about her classmates, and other then a few of them, had no idea what their powers would be.

Of course, she could always just hide in the shadows, and attack, but that seemed cowardily. She would use it only if it proved nessacary.

Anthony raises an eyebrow and signs. "Exams? They don't give exams here; they're just constantly evaluating us." He then smiles and asks, "Since you don't have any other plans, Would you like to spend the evening together?'

”We could, yeah. But if you’re going to be busy like last night, you can do that first. I don’t mind, you know? We spend a lot of time together already; I’m fine with giving each other personal space – gives us time to miss one another.”

Hidden behind the warm smile and caring gaze, Anthony feels a pang of indignation, thinking, "Did this woman really just reject me?." He signs, "If that's really what you want, my dear."

Kijani stood, and studied her assembled classmates, wondering who she stood a chance of beating while she was without her powers. Her eyes alighted on Griffin. "You." She pointed him out with a wicked smile. "Bring it on." She stepped down to the training room without another backward glance. Once there, she loosened her clothes slightly and started to stretch and warm up. She needed a good fight- even if she lost, it would keep her mind busy for the time being.

[KatherinWinter]

Griffin was pleased to be chosen. He wanted to try his skills against a live opponent. He wasn't sure about battling a girl. Villains can be female too. Arnold pointed out. You should get past this uneasy in this class. Griffin nodded his agreement as he entered the training room after the girl. "I'm Griffin."

[Mistress Dizzy]

Kijani inclined her head politely. "Kijani." She frowned slightly. "Wait, I thought your name was... Zeke or Zack or something." How had she managed to get that so wrong? She twisted and cracked her back with a series of small, audible popping noises.

[KatherinWinter]

"We are more then one." Griffin explained briefly. He studied the girl. She wouldn't have much strength. He didn't know her power so he approached to see if one on one would be the best approach.

[Mistress Dizzy]

"More than... one?" She raised her eyebrows. "You mean you have a twin?" As he approached her, she kept her distance, backing and circling to make sure she wasn't cornered. The room was small. It'd hinder her space for dodging, but not by much. If she could keep him talking, she could continue to assess him.

[KatherinWinter]

"No, not a twin. More then one personality." Griffin explained as he aimed for a low kick. He needed to see her reaction to an actual attack. That would give him a better idea of how to attack.

[Mistress Dizzy]

"Hm." Kijani pursed her lips, interested. She dodged his low kick with an easy jump, landing on her feet and keeping up the movement, swaying as if to some unknown beat. "Oh, don't tease me, Griffin. Hit me. If you can."

[KatherinWinter]

"Alright." Griffin agreed. He aimed a right cross at her. But this was more of a distraction then an attack. With her attention on his fist she might not notice him attempt another low kick.

[Mistress Dizzy]

Griffin's plan worked. Almost. Kijani dodged Griffin's fist, but was struck by his kick. Instead of just falling, though, she let her whole body flow back in the direction that the trip came from. She turned a fall into a flip and came up on her hands, executing a high kick at Griffin's chin.

[KatherinWinter]

Griffin hadn't seen the kicvk coming. Kijani got points for her fast reactions. Griffin stepped back. He decided to try the suggestion Arnold had given him earlier. Using his ability to manipulate light Griffin created a large flash of light. This should briefly blind Kijani to his high kick.

[Mistress Dizzy]

Kijani hadn't known the flash was coming, and shut her eyes against the brightness. Griffin's kick caught her right in the chin- luckily she knew how to take a blow to the head. It still hurt, though, and she licked the blood from her bottom lip and grinned. "Not bad, Griffin and friends." Then she did something odd. She closed her eyes deliberately. If he could blind her that fast, then her sight was going to be a liability. Instead, she focused on the sound of Griffin's movements and breathing.

[KatherinWinter]

Griffin tilted his head. He was confused by her decision to close her eyes. How did this help her, Griffin wondered. Was she going to use her powers now. Griifin moved around warily uncertain how to approach this new situation.

[Mistress Dizzy]

Kijani heard his movements easily in the small room. She darted for him, aiming a kick toward his knee, and an even faster follow up blow, her palm to his chin. All the while her eyes were screwed shut.

[KatherinWinter]

The blows landed because Griffin was distracted. Or atleast that was what he told himself. "You are a good fighter for a girl. We admire this. Congradulations Kijani you win this round. We must study this fighting style. So that we have a better method of attack. This was an interesting battle. Thank you." Griffin turned and headed out of the training room.

[Mistress Dizzy]

Kijani snorted. "A good fighter 'for a girl'? You go right to hell, Griffin et al." She wiped at her slightly bleeding lip and glared at him. "Good thing you chickened out while you did- I was about to beat your ass into the ground." She walked out and breezed by him, bumping him agressively with her hip as she passed by. The anger of the gender insult gave her mind something to grip besides her thoughts. She sat down and leaned back with her feet on the desk, utterly pissed.

Jack figured it was time for him and John. "Hey John! Time for me to kick your ass. No one on one fist fights. You are going down." Jack said walking into the room once the others were done. He held up his fist to John as a slight sign of respect after wards he would back up.
