Sparring

[Flite Darkleaper]

Flite was standing in the training room of one of the temples. She wore her creme colored Jedi Tunic her blonde hair lay on her shoulders. She held a training saber and was striking a dummy looking quite bored. She wanted to do anything, but hit a dummy. She sighed as she stopped and sat nearby drinking some water as she rested for a moment.

Rei staggered into the training room, snarling under her breath, "'you're too sloppy'. I'll show you sloppy..." She did not handle criticism well, especially when that criticism was aimed at her abilities as a Jedi. Well, she was a Padawan, so not quite yet a Jedi; but, that was why they brought her here, so that she could become a Jedi. At the end of the day, Rei knew she was sloppy. She just did not like it being so obvious. She was strong, fierce, determined... and sloppy.

As she entered the room, Rei's eyes caught sight of another. She could tell immediately that this girl was a Padawan, like her. Her mind immediately shifted, completely forgetting about her frustration. Her tail began to wag eagerly. It was much more enjoyable to train with someone than to beat stuffed dummies senseless.

Flite heard someone enter the training room she glanced up at the girl. Seeing this as a chance to do something more fun than hit a bunch of dummies she stood. "Hello I'm Flite" she said as she approached Rei her hand stretched out to her. As she waited for Rei to take her hand she looked at her orangish brown hair and her peach colored skin with the hint of red she began to wonder what she was exactly.

Rei smiled and approached the young Padawan, her tail wagging with excitement. "Ishveil, Rei," she replied, shaking the girl's hand. Rei could tell immediately that the girl was much younger than she was. She supposed it was not entirely abnormal; after all, Rei knew she was much older than most Padawans, especially around here.

"I'd love to spar, if you think I won't be too easy for you," Rei teased, a light smirk across her lips. She headed to the far wall and dismounted two bamboo staffs. She then turned back to the girl named Flite and extended her arm, offering the staff to the girl.

"You have a pretty name" she said as Rei shook her hand. Flite took the bamboo staff with a smile "I doubt it will be to easy" She moved to the center of the room before turning to face Rei. She unclipped her lightsaber as an afterthought and used the force to gently set it away from her and away from where they would be sparring. "So how long ago did you join the order?" she asked curiously while she waited for Rei to join her so they could begin sparring.

OOC Sorry about the wait took a nap

If Rei's cheeks flushed with bright red for a moment, she would not have been surprised. People did not usually compliment her name, especially not with girly adjectives. "Um, thanks," she replied with a small smile, unsure of what else to say. She positioned herself across from Flite and got into her battle pose. "I don't think it has even been a year yet," she replied, jumping forward, preparing to strike Flite with the staff.

Flite nodded she'd been with the order for what felt like a long time. She of course hadn't trained the entire time she was with the order she had joined when she was only two. Shaking her head at getting lost in thought Flite looked only to see Rei attempting to strike her mentally cursing she flung herself out of the way of her strike quickly getting back to her feet and ready to defend this time.

The girl jumped back, avoiding her strike, only to take another defensive strike. Some people did prefer to take on the more defensive strategy; so, it only seemed logical for Rei to try and break through those defenses. She analyzed the girl, looking for a possible weakness, an opening she could break through. The girl was small, she could try to knock her down; so, Rei made another room, this time, aiming for her legs.

Flute watched Two closely waiting for the strike when it came as a leg sweep. She jumped over the before swinging for Rei's midsection.

As she battled the fellow Padawan, Rei thought about herself training with her own Master. She had taken enough staff jabs to the stomach to know how to avoid it. She could not jump out of the way fast enough, so she quickly lifted her staff and angled it so that she could use it to stop her opponent's staff. She had to remember to pretend these staffs were lightsabers - extensions of oneself.

Flite smiled she was having fun. She stood back up and stepped back just out of range she slowly began to circle Rei. She was watching her clwisely going on the defensive.
