Ethan and Ingrid

(Collab with @Wick)

Ethan was still going about his footwork and punching thin air doing combinations. At first he hadn't noticed Ingrid walking in until she started punching one of the bags which brought Ethan back to reality.

After a while she walked into the ring and offered Ethan an explanation of her reasons behind killing Erin. "Fair enough." Ethan calmly replied with. "I kind of started getting the hint that she wasn't the best of people when everyone didn't really care that she died." Within a few seconds Ingrid seemed like she wanted a fight, Ethan was a little knocked back by the request. He'd never hit a woman before even if she'd asked him. "How about... We work on your combinations." Ethan moved to the side and grabbed a pair of boxing gloves chucking them her way. "Put them on, let's see what you've got." Ethan chuckled to himself as he chucked on some punch pads on. Ethan quickly went into a boxing stance with his left hand on level with head and the right on level with his hip. "My left hands one, right hands two. Ready? One, one, two." Ethan shouted to Ingrid in an intense voice.

"English? Your name is Ethan aye? Tha's got ta be tha most english of all the english names I've ever heard of." Ingrid noticed that he seemed to not really be taking her seriously. Ingrid feigned ignorance and she mocked him one, one, two, got it. She hit him with an uppercut to the jaw that knocked him across the ring on his butt. She chuckled.

"I told ya. I'll not baby ya b'cause yer afraid to hit me. Landed ye on yer arse is what it did."

The hit certainly shocked Ethan, it was the first time since the apocalypse that he'd been punched. He looked up at Ingrid who was laughing at him as he rubbed his jaw. "So that's how its gunna be ey?" Ethan jokingly replied to her, He chucked off the pads and grabbed some gloves. As soon as the gloves were on, Ethan jumped up quick and got into a boxing stance. "Come on then." Ethan smiled as he moved about the ring. Within a second Ethan had jabbed Ingrid in the face with two lightning fast punches.

Ingrid grinned and she decided to get in as much practice as she could while she had a sparring partner. She laid into him hard with several combinations to the side and a couple of jabs to the face. "I'm gonna take it easy on yer face. I figure it's pretty enough I shouldn't make you lose it the first time I fight ya!" She chuckled as she hit him in the gut and she dodged backwards as one of his hits scraped her tummy.

Ethan laughed at her remark as he bounced around the ring. He'd forgotten how much of a thrill it was being in the boxing ring. Even if his current boxing partner looked half the size of him and his old opponents usually consisted of overweight thirty year old's. She did have speed, also his old opponents got tired quite quickly. "Awww that's ever so kind of you." Ethan told her in an over the top romantic way. He bounced away from her and covered his heart with his hands. Within a second he went back in a boxing stance and threw a right handed hook aimed for her head.

Ingrid laughed at his taunting. "Thas nice!" She ducked the hook and threw in a move where she walked up onto his knee and around his waist and down the other knee. She laughed as she flipped over him without laying a glove on him. "You'll 'ave to do better than that to catch me english."

"Well... I wasn't expecting that." Ethan confusedly said as he looked at Ingrid. "If we was doing gymnastics right now, I'd give you a standing ovation." Straight away Ethan jabbed her in the jaw. "But we're not." Ethan laughed. "So Irish... let's see what else you've got." Ethan cheekily winked at her, knowing she wouldn't take the banter lightly.

Ingrid smiled as she rubbed her jaw. "Ya call that a hit? I thought I got smacked by a fly fer a minute. Yer na' man enough to see all I got." She stuck her tongue out at him and faked a left cross and went for the right cross instead. She ducked and dodged his punches and she chuckled right up until he got her in the eye good. "Son ova bitch that one 'urt!"

"We'll have to find a piece of steak for your eye then." Ethan replied to her with a smile and continued, "You know women your size aren't supposed to be able to hit like that you know?" He joked to her, taking his gloves off. He was only supposed to come into the gym for a shower, instead he'd ended up sparring for the past twenty minutes.

"I had seven brothers. How was I supposed to hit?" Ingrid laughed at the memory of fighting with them daily. "Mum called me a monkey cuz I would crawl around on them like they were trees or somethin'. They were all over 6 foot tall." Ingrid smiled and looked at Ethan. "An how would you have me hit? Like a little girl? I've blacked Matt's eye before."

Ingrid dropped her gloves and jumped down into the gym itself and headed towards the showers. As she went she stripped off clothing and let it fall where it landed. She was naked before she got to the showers with her clothes strewn across the gym. She stopped and turned. "Are ya comin'?"

Ethan was leaning on the ropes watching her walk towards the showers as she started to undress, when she gave him the invitation Ethan didn't answer. The mischievous smile said it all as he jumped out the ring and walked towards the showers, taking his top off as he followed her.

Ethan Blackledge

Ethan had no idea why people didn't really act too bothered about Erin dying as he looked down at her lifeless body. "Who the fucks Raven?" Ethan quietly asked himself. A few of the other people came over to him to look at the dead girl. Within a few minutes they'd picked the corpse of Erin and took her to a patch of grass to bury her. Ethan started to help them out by beginning to dig a grave but they only lasted a few minutes when someone started to scream, Ethan started to walk round the corner to see what was happening. A few seconds later the sound of guns shots made Ethan start to run grabbing his hatchet that was dangling from hip. When Ethan turned round the corner he saw Sasha firing at Walkers who were closing in on Kyle.

Without really thinking what to do, Ethan sprinted at the Walkers being followed by two other people. He launched his hatchet sending it spinning through the air. It smashed a walker straight in the chest, the impact made the Walker crash to the ground. Ethan grabbed the knuckle dusters from his pocket and speared the walker that was starting to bend down, trying to grab Kyle. He laid on top of the Walker and pinned it down by the throat with his left hand and with the knuckle dusters on his right, he hammered down three massive punches to the Walkers head. The head splattered underneath the massive blows.

Ethan slowly stood up heavily breathing as everyone else got there, the rest of the Walkers were already finished off by the group. He wondered over to the other Walker that had his hatchet stuck in the middle of his chest. Ethan curb stomped the Walker and yanked the hatchet out.

They all stood over Kyle making sure he was okay. It turned out that he had amnesia. Ethan let out a slight laugh, more in disbelief. Listening to Kyle talk, he just couldn't see him being a stoner. They both hadn't really talked to each other much over the past month and Kyle always seemed to be very straight laced. At least he hadn't been bit, that was the main thing. Hopefully his memory would start coming back to him, but it could take a while.

Later on after he'd helped bury the two bodies, Ethan found out that there was a gym with showers, which he desperately needed. When he walked into the gym, the first thing that Ethan saw was the boxing ring. All around the side of the ring was littered with boxing equipment. Ethan slowly walked into the ring and started to bounce left to right when all his footwork lessons came back to him. He closed his eyes remembering his old life.

Ethan Blackledge

Ethan was in one of the last cars that pulled up to the school. He decided to stay back a while and help load up the cars, so the work was finished quicker. When the car stopped, Ethan slowly got out, stretched and made an over the top yawn sound. Within a few minutes they were unloading the cars and taking them inside.

After a while of unloading all the equipment, Ethan started to look noticeably sweaty, the heat was a bit too much for him but he continued to work. Only mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun, Ethan thought to himself with a smile.

When Ethan was walking through the halls carrying a massive box, he bumped into Violet who was stood outside of one of the rooms. It looked like everyone had started clearing the classrooms and were turning them into bedrooms. Violet asked him whether or not he'd be staying with her. In truth Ethan hadn't really thought about it. He wasn't the type of person to look that far into the future. Before he could actually think of an answer she walked into the room, leaving Ethan a little bit lost for words.

For a few seconds Ethan stood there, debating. He followed her into the room. "Yeah… I'll do whatever. I'm not too fussed. If you want me to stay, I'll stay." He waited a few seconds thinking of what to say, but he didn't know really what to say. "Well… I have to get back to business. The cars aren't going to unload themselves..." He tapped the box and smiled at Violet as he walked back outside of the room. He walked round the corner and leaned against the wall lightly smacking his head on the box, he hadn't felt that awkward in a while. Ethan was never really good expressing his feelings so he always seemed to make the conversations awkward. Sighing, Ethan pushed himself off the wall and went back to his work

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Later on as Ethan walked back downstairs and went to grab some more boxes from the car, he heard a scream and as he span around he witnessed Ingrid slashing a girls throat. Ingrid shrieked at the girl, but she was already dead. Ethan sprinted towards the girl who was lying on the ground, he had no idea what to do. As he looked up Ingrid was walking into school. "What the fuck have you done Ingrid?" He shouted at her in sheer disbelief.

Elliot Forrester

A few other people walked into the Pokemon Lab shortly after Elliot did, one of them was talking about herself like she was a celebrity but Elliot had no idea who she was. He never really watched TV, he spent most of his time outside.

Everyone started to talk but Elliot stayed quiet, not wanting to interrupt and ask for his Pokemon, luckily the Professor interrupted the two girls. She told one of her many assistants to come over with all the Pokeballs, everyone went and grabbed one before Elliot, who was too nervous to try and grab one before someone else. So he waited until the other three grabbed one.

There was a few Pokeballs left on the tray, but Elliot knew straight away which one he wanted and it was still there. "Thanks." Elliot quietly said as he quickly grabbed the Pokeball off the tray, still not believing someone was giving away free Pokemon. Elliot then rushed out the place grabbing the Pokedex on his way out.

Over the Misty Mountains [LOTR] [Hobbit]

As the rain continued to bounce down, Eodras slowly followed the tracks of the caravan. His hood was covering his face and his cloak was wrapped around him keeping him slightly sheltered from the rain. But all he could think of was the woman he met, her face and that voice was burned into his memory. He'd never seen anyone like her before. Curiosity was starting to sink in, Eodras wanted to know who she was, he wished that he didn't leave now.

The sound of people laughing brought him back to reality, a few moments later all of the caravans came into view. People were piled into tents and the wagons, with a few people unlucky enough to be out in the rain. Eodras was one of those unlucky few. He casually walked through the camp and took his cloak off. Within a few minutes Eodras had made a makeshift tent tying his cloak to a branch and to the floor a few feet away from the tree. He leaned against the tree and went to work on skinning the squirrels while also having a nosy at what was happening in the camp. Skinning the animals was always the worst bit as he started to fling all the innards into the forest behind him. Anyone was welcome to one of the squirrels but he doubted anybody would queue up for a measly squirrel.

It didn't take long for the woman to come back into his thoughts, but he had to get that her out of his mind, he'd never see her again. Eodras started to quietly whistle a tune as he carried on with his task.
