She laughed with enjoyment. "You're cute when your cocky." She said, darting at him. She grabbed his legs, trying to take him down, but he pushed her to the side, making her fall to the ground. Her hair fell in front of her face and she angrily blew it away. She stood up, brushing herself off. "Ok, so maybe you do know your grappling." She admitted, walking to the edge of the small arena. There was a pile of equipment on the grass, thin gloves for the hands, and some padding for the legs. She equipped herself and threw the equipment to Luke. She awaited for him to put on, and when he finally did, she set new rules. "Striking and grappling. You ready?" She asked with a smile. She charged at him, ducking under his first punch, which seemed hesitant. She swept his feet from under him, but he surprisingly caught himself with his hands. He kicked upward, striking Alice in the face. With a strong moan of surprise, mixed with pain, also mixed with an odd sense of pleasure, she went to the ground. Blood trickled from her mouth. Her thin, pinkish tongue grabbed the blood from her lips.<br/><br/>"You're rough. I like that." She charged again and they continue their sparring.<br/><br/><span class="bbc_u"><em><strong>Joren</strong></em></span><br/><br/>"Interesting." The man said, walking up to Joren. "You're aspirations are higher...you are the ambitious one. My name is Cornelius. I work for ArmsTech. Well...I suppose you could call me an employee." He said, quickly seizing Joren's arm with crushingly painful force. Lightening went into Joren, causing him to scream in pain. Ice began to crawl from Joren, and then it shot out, freezing the surrounding buildings as well as all people that were in this huge brawl to solid ice. Before, the area was only coated with ice. Now, it actually was. Joren continued to scream until Cornelius let go. "This is your power. But that is only a taste." Cornelius told him. "That is what you could have. If you work with me. Right now, you are limited to your previous abilities. But, this is your potential." He said gesturing to all the frozen people and buildings. "You could go from man...to something far greater. And far more dangerous."<br/><br/>OOC: Wyrn, you don't have to read most of the stuff going on with Gabe/Gwin/Alice/Luke right now. Obviously, it doesn't tie into your character yet XD. So dont feel overwhelmed if we post a lot during this time.<br/><br/><strong><em><span class="bbc_u">Gabriel</span></em></strong><br/><br/>Gabriel had honestly not realized that he lacked a towel. His face turned red, but he simply laughed. Somehow, it didn't exactly feel wrong. He took the clothes she held and slipped on his pants, after she had turned away (without him asking). He then dried his torso, wrapping the towel around his neck. He approached her from behind and wrapped his hands around her. He whispered in her ear "When you kissed me...it felt...right. I don't know how to explain it. I can hardly remember the kiss, but the bit I do remember felt right. You felt so...familiar. But, I want to be sure. I want to be fully aware for it." He said, turning her back around. He brushed her hair aside.
