She'd learned that particular lesson some time ago; though... if she did manage to get her thighs locked around his waist, he would have one helluva time removing her... hmm. That small challenge almost made her want to try it, it was there in her eyes, but she knew that if she did they might end up wrestling instead of going to breakfast and as fun as that sounded she really did need to eat if she intended to get the best out of her training and activities today.<br/><br/>Pulling her arms from behind her head, the Amazon propped herself up on her elbows and leveled her currently more green than brown hazels on the son of Ares. She hardly took notice as he decided to change t-shirts, her gaze lingering on his face rather than the scarred but strong physique he bared. They'd wrestled enough that she already knew what he both looked and felt like so looking seemed rather redundant. There was absolutely nothing wrong with her memory and though there were plenty of girls who giggled over him when they thought no one was paying attention it wasn't his looks that drew her anyway. He was technically her brother after all.<br/><br/>If her sisters could see her now they'd probably think she'd gone soft, sitting here all calm while a male loomed over her issuing his 'threats'--no matter how playful. The Amazons weren't man haters like Artemis hunters but they did enjoy ruling over them, often pressing them into doing more of the grunt work than anything of true importance. By rights she should have been clawing tooth and nail to surpass Ezra and leave him in the dust as she claimed the top spot among Ares' brood but, well, she simply didn't feel that way. Besides, the sisters of her tribe had stood by and let... Zahara shook her herself mentally, not wanting to go there this morning. Not while things were still pleasant. Ezra was the closest friend Zii had ever had and it didn't matter to her what any others might think of that. They just worked and that was enough for her. Poking at the whys and hows would only risk breaking it and she didn't think she could take it if that happened.<br/><br/>Plus, the boy already knew if he slipped up she be right there to take up the crown and do a celebratory dance. He meant the world to her but that didn't change who she was.<br/><br/>"You'll throw me over your shoulder? HA!" She snorted and waved a hand as if utterly unconcerned. "You mean you'll try." The look she leveled at him said she'd take him on any day of the week. Pound for pound, Erza had her beat on brute strength--she'd worn enough bruises to be sure of that--and he held the greater weapons knowledge but to win any physical contest against her, he first had to catch her. And Zii was one of the fastest in camp, coming in second only to Artemis' hunters when they stopped in and maybe the children of the big three when they were all amped up.<br/><br/>Grinning wickedly now she was actually preparing to make him eat those words rather than just shrug them off but some newbie had to go and spoil her fun. All of a sudden Ezra lurched forward, his hand coming down to grab onto her to keep him from toppling all the way onto her. She saw the shift in him as he gripped her leg, watched as the previously playful demi-god withdrew, folding away the part of himself she treasured and becoming hard and angry right before her eyes. Irritation kicked up fast and hard as he pushed himself up and bellowed at their cabin-mates, sending most of them scattering.<br/><br/>It should be noted that the children of Ares were no punks. Had anyone else yelled like that there'd have been a fight and as it was, Zii saw the stubbornness in more than a few of her half-siblings, however, most simply chose to leave rather than cause problems among their own. Which left only her to deal with... "Cerberus' three balls, kid," the words were mumbled under her breath a second before she slapped a hand down and used it to launch herself from her bed at Ezra's back. "Hey! We aren't finished here! Don't try to back out now, Ezra!" The move was far from perfect given the way she'd been sitting and he certainly had time to catch her if he chose but her arms went to slip around his neck while her legs aimed wrapped around his middle with a solid lock that would let her squeeze just a bit, her aim only to distract him long enough for the kid to prove he had some brains in that thick skull of his. Her eyes flickered down to the kid who seriously needed to learn to watch where he was going just as her lips came near Ezra's ear, allowing her to whisper so that only he would hear, "Save it for training, Cap. I don't want to have to waste my superior skills on you this early."<br/><br/>Zahara hoped the use of her nickname for him and the distraction of having someone at his back who could take him would be enough. It possibly meant early bruises if he decided to take the bait but she could handle it. The Amazon was always ready for a fight. As it was she had to move one of her hands to signal for the kid to get out of there, leaving her open for a counter as she growled at him, "Pavilion. Now." The runt was so gonna owe her one.
