Vergil had the few security stations that had been afforded aboard the ship.  Given its size and intended purpose, there were less posts within than other vessels, but he could work with what he was given.  The brig was in working order as well.  He tested the force fields to make sure they were operating at peak efficiency and strength.  The lieutenant didn't want any potential guests put on the other side to be able to break free.<br/><br/>Once he was satisfied, Tosh found his way to the holodeck.  Knowing that there was no rush to meet the Captain or other members of the crew, he thought he might relax a bit though his idea of relaxing was probably not like most others aboard.<br/><br/>His 6'4" frame stepped through the doors into the black walled room.  His light brown eyes gave a quick once over before he spoke again to the omnipresent computer.<br/><br/>"Computer, begin program Training Exercise Three from my personal database.  Difficulty Eight."<br/><br/>"<em>Authorization Required...</em>"<br/><br/>"Authorization code: Tosh Gamma Victor Nine."<br/><br/>"<em>Authorization Accepted...Beginning Program...</em>"<br/><br/>The walls suddenly melted away to reveal what looked like the inside of a generic metallic structure.  The walls were made of warped iron and steel.  The lights were dim, and the air smelled of stagnant water and rust.  Slow billows of steam rose from the floor in places within the mid-sized room that he was now standing in.  Five corridors led away from the room, 1 leading away from three directions with 2 leading away from the fourth.  Vergil seemed to be alone, but he knew he wasn't.  He'd done this exercise enough times to know what to expect, but the program was intelligent.  It changed in some ways which were subtle and in others quite noticeably to keep the trainee from getting a sense of complacency.  It was both a test and a training exercise in strength, stamina, and adaptability.<br/><br/>Vergil turned to his right, choosing that particular corridor.  He moved quickly but cautiously.  Reaching the end of the corridor, a body suddenly dropped down in front of him, booted feet barreling forward to try and knock him from his feet.  He was able to slip to the side enough, his body twisting to roll along with the incoming force.  As he did, his elbow came down upon the center of the offenders chest, a harsh grunt erupting from the Angosian's throat.  "Hragh!!"<br/><br/>The dummy fell to the ground with a thud though was still quite active.  Difficulty eight was on the higher end of the scale which meant several factors were increased, one of which was the ease of which targets were neutralized.  It was a generic word.  It could mean any number of avenues to take when dealing with an aggressor.  For Tosh in the holodeck, it meant lethal force.<br/><br/>He dropped one knee with all his force, gravity helping in the process, but the dummy rolled out of the way quickly, just dodging the breaking force which would have crushed his windpipe and neck.  The human featureless figure spun around, a leg hiking up in an impending kick.  Tosh rose one arm to block, but the force was so much that it knocked him several feet to the side.  "Mmf!"  He fell with a thud and a slight grunt, but being the soldier he was, he rolled with it, standing from his prone position to face his attacker who now came full force, arms moving gracefully with the precision only a computer generated program could provide.  What it lacked was sentient adaptability.<br/><br/>Vergil blocked punches and strikes, giving a few of his own in return, and eventually, he had an opportunity to strike a stunning blow to the figure.  It flew back and hit the wall, dazed for a mere second which was all the time that the Angosian needed.  His foot struck down and diagonally, impacting with the side of the dummy's knee.  The sound of crunching bone was heard as he crippled the humanoid.  His arms reached out as it fell down, one hand grasping at a black chin while the other took a grip on the back of its head.  A firm and practiced twist, and the figure fell lifelessly to the floor, shattered vertebrae being the killing blow.<br/><br/>He stood triumphantly over the first of his many targets within the program, not a trace of fatigue or struggle exhibited.  Without a moment spared, he turned and continued.<em>This</em>was relaxation.
