The Next Step

[1]

[Mad's at the Hangar, doing some prepwork with the Lambda. It wasn't too hard to guess that she was planning on heading out and taking on those Bandits that were raiding Fuso.]

Everything's in the green so far...

[But will it be good enough?... Damnit, why's she worrying like the whole world was gonna collapse on her, she's not Hana for christsakes.]

God I need a drink...

OOF!

[And Mad hits the mat again, wiping at her face as she got back to her feet.]

Again. I'm not done yet.

[She cracks her knuckles and gets into a stance. Working off her tension with a good spar was helping her a bit.]

[She's in the Arboretum after a long day's workout. And as usual she didn't bother with a shirt. Seriously. Someone needs to talk to this girl.]

[Still, she's just relaxing, deep in her thoughts. Disturb her?]

[And Pit is there. She's not managed to actually lay a hit on him yet, but he's so supportive it's hard to get mad at it. He smiles happily when Mad gets up again and nods]

Okay! Ready when you are! [And he takes his own stance again, half--bouncing lightly on his tiptoes back and forth]

[aesoprevived]

[Mad's taking a deep breath before setting up her stance... then in an instant she's charging to let loose a flying kick at the angel!]

[And as she flies at him, Pit's going to sidestep in a blink (fighting Pit is like fighting a goddamned mongoose) and grab Mad's extended foot! He then spins on himself swinging her, and twists his wrist and sends her flying back in the same direction she came from!]

[Annnd she eats mat to no one's big surprise.]

... So how many does it make it for you?

[can_not_fly]

I, uh, actually wasn't keeping count... [Pit was just having fun with a friend. Tallying points never even occured to him] That was a really good kick, by the way! Would you mind coming help me get a proper kick into Madoka's head one of these days? [As everyone knows, Pit's been training Madoka at the behest of Palutena. He's not the best of teachers though, and it shows]

[aesoprevived]

Hah! It's good... I can probably make up for it later on.

[She stretches languidly and rubs at her neck.]

One day maybe. Madoka'd probably beat my ass though. She's good at the whole - beating people around thing.

[can_not_fly]

Well, she's pretty good for a human, but she can't aim a flying kick to save her life. We're working on that, though!

[aesoprevived]

I think she's got more in her arms than her legs. Ever been on the receiving end of one of her holds?

[can_not_fly]

Uh, well, a couple times I guess.
