Training For Greatness I

Description

"I see ya chosen your weapon, a good choice." The sun rose above the mountains and shone onto the stone tower near Khelem, Gor'gahn grasped his staff with weary hands. This was his first time training another in the art of un-hai, of all the people to choose in the vast city to fight Krazoa, it had to be his sister. Nevertheless he kept his composure intact as he readied himself for the first of many training sessions.

"Swords are weapons I'm most familiar with." Argus walked around bearing a rope-covered sword in both hands, the rope was long and dragged across the floor. It was clear to Gor'gahn that she preferred the Flying Sword style, an unorthodox way of un-hai but was an easier style than the rest.

"Good, then let's begin shall we? Strike at me." Gor'gahn stood in his battle stance while his sister stood awkwardly, a look of worry present upon her face.

"What?"

"Strike at me. All underspawn are naturally prepared to fight."

"Ya sure?"

"Ya foe will not be as kind."

"Well...here goes."


Argus swung the blades at Gor'gahn, which he easily deflected with his staff. Argus felt the blow of the staff against the back of her head, but it did not faze her. She swung the left blade at her brother, only to have it wrap around his arm. With great strength he pulled his sister towards him, once again Argus felt the blow of the staff but this time it was on the front of her face.

Dizzy and frustrated enough, she swung around in circles with her blades, making for a deadly tornado with Gor'gahn easily dodged. When it stopped he could see Argus tied up by her own weapons, her right cheek cut from the blade, struggling to break loose. Gor'gahn smirked, she had not cut or wounded him one bit. But the smirk died when he saw that the pillar behind her bore a great scar caused by her anger.

"Don't control the blades, let the blades control ya. Not a bad start, but we have so much to do."


----

The training begins!

Enjoy!

Is it wrong that Argus looks cute as she's tied up? Poor thing got scarred.
