Sky walked into the grounds, her bowstaff in hand. She walked to a shaded corner and set her staff down. Turning, she glanced at her souroundings, she couldn't see anyone from here, that was just as well. She sat down on the dirt ground. She spread her legs out and laid forward. She was flexable enough to put her forehead on the ground. She turned and stretched as far as she could toward both feet. Running through her stretches she didn't notice anything else...

Sky jumped. She hadn't realized that someone had walked up. When she processed what he had said, she almost laughed, but caught herself just in time.
Umm...no...
She glanced at the 5 foot long, strait, 3 quarter inch thick stick on the ground. Trying to bover up the mistake she shrugged.
[I know how to use a bow and quiver, though. Not near as well as I can use my bowstaff...or a sword for that matter. I'm not to good at long distance fighting. I like haveing the action close up. Right here.
Smiling, she motioned to the space right in front of her. Cocking her head, she asked a seemingly stupid question.
What are you comfortable with?

Max smiled and said " sword mostly but i am good with moving things with my mind" "do you have any special abilities??" he asked walking to the other end of the arena..

Sky smiled. Not a smile of inocence, one of secrecy and concealment. She watched him walk, gauging her options. Finally she spoke:
It doesn't really matter. It's all a game to me. But, if I didn't...I wouldn't be here would I?
She wondered why he wanted to know. The question had been casual enough but something inside her said 'watch it'. She had yet to chose sides. Afterall, she liked death, but her family kept her tide to the 'nice' side of things.
Why are you here? Other than to learn to use your power correctly and to go to a school where you are semi-accepted? There's got to be another reason...
She let the sentence hang. He would answer eventually. She picked up her staff and took a defensive position, for she guessed he showed to 'play'.

Max gave her a side ways smile, he liked her cocky attitude. he turned and saw she was ready with a bow, he answered her question with " well i'm just walking around, and i saw your bowstaff and you looked like you needed a partner to spar with, thats all" he gave her a look and said, " your move first...

She smiled again. This time it was wry. Should I play fare or not...? She asked herself. Unable to come up with an answer she asked aloud:
Would you like to play fair?
She realized her mistake but didn't really want to fix it. If he wanted to play fair then she wouldn't read his mind to see what he was going to do next. If he jsut wanted to play, she couldn't lose. Then again...would she rather win or play fair? Of course, using one of her two powers wouldn't be cheating...she wouldn't use her other one unless she really wanted to. Now wasn't one of those times.

Your death wish...
She opened her mind and locked with his. He couldn't feel it, but he could see as her eyes turned grey. She began to walk forward. Stopping just in front of him, she swung. Aiming at his sword hand, fienting left. She twisted and took another swing at the back of his right leg. She shut her eyes and took a step back, putting her staff in the ready position.
ooc{{ I don't know if you RP fights the same way I'm used to. But the way I do it, One person sais what they do, and the other says if they've been hit. You can't say that you hit your opponant without thier concent. When doing it this way, it's easy to God-mode (make your charrie invencable) so be careful.This is the fairest way to RP a fight though.

Having her eyes shut, she saw through his, thus being able to see where he was. This wasn't the most accurate way of finding him, but it was her best option at the moment. She knew he was going to move the rock, and moved just barely to the right. Trying to overpower his mind was proving difficult but she had almost done it. He should now be able to feel her there. He should have a splitting headache right about now too. If she could just get that last bit...she could turn the rock back towards it's master. She clenched his mind. Now to figure out how to take over his power. Whack! She felt the rock hit her side.
Ow! Shit! Damn, that hurt.
Just a little farther... she thought. If I can figure this out...
ooc{{ Do you want her to be able to figure out how to use his power against him? I'd rather just talk and get to know him instead of fight, at the moment.

Feeling him move under her struggle for his mind, she stopped for just long enough to read it again. He had given. She withdrew from his mind imediately. Stopping his headache completely.
I commend upon your performance...you lasted much longer than most. It was much harder to take control of yours...
In fact, I never did. she added to herself. She walked across the arena to help him up. She knew a lot more about him now, but she was trying to push that fact out of her own mind. One picture kept resurfacing. The one showing he was a spy. It didn't change the way she looked at him what so ever.
You are very different...the fact of what you are isn't something I really wanted to know. But, it does explain why you asked about my powers...now you know that I can read and control minds. Take that to..
She tried to remember the image.
Eryk. If you want, but I don't have a side, so it wont help much...
She had been speaking quietly to keep his secret a secret.
And don't worry, your secret is safe with me. I don't have a big mouth, and my mind reading only works one way...
She smiled at him reassuringly.
