Vergil sighed and pulled his mask down before entering an empty space just vacated by another student.  Picking up the discarded kendo sword, which strangely enough felt familiar in the young man's hands, the other student before him raised his own weapon at the same time Vergil did.  Planting a foot behind him and the other before him in the traditional stance, Vergil waited for the first attack to fall before moving to block the attack, turning the blade horizontally before him before turning the blade aside and turning in fast, getting past the defense the other student tried to put into place only to get whacked across his right side.  "Whoa...did I just do that?"  Vergil said to himself more than anyone, his brown eyes opening up in mild shock at how easy that had been.<br/><br/>"Lucky shot."  The guy said behind his mask, both of them taking a stance again before going at it.  Blocking two strikes and a deft thrust to his midriff, Vergil brought the wooden sword up and down across the mask, making the student see stars despite the protective gear he was wearing.<br/><br/>"I'm sorry.  You ok?"  Vergil asked, surprised he'd been able to slip in so quickly without much effort.  Maybe it was a hidden talent of his, like his violin playing?  The student didn't say a word, mad at being bested so easily.
