Compound: Kellan and Mira train with Tegan

Kellan Archer  January 21, 2013   *Getting a txt from Tegan to meet him in the training center A.S.A.P. I quickly change and grab my dufflebag and head out as fast as I can; not wanting to keep him waiting. As I turn the corner I almost collide with Mira reaching out to and grabbing onto her arm to keep her from falling* Hey Mouse! Where are you off to in such a hurry?

Mira Nicholas-Archer *catching my breath after our near collide* The training center! I just got a text from Tegan about coming down now. Did you get one too? Do you know if Nathan got one too?


Kellan Archer *Looking over as Tegan walks up to us* I’m ready whenever you are!


Mira Nicholas-Archer *squatting down to tighten the ties on my shoes, I look up at Tegan and nod my head* I'm ready too. *I stand back up and wait for our orders, hoping that I'm not given some lame job because I'm only 15.*


Kellan Archer *Looking him in his eyes not showing any signs of weakness knowing that I could do whatever was needed. I shake my head waiting for him to begin*


Mira Nicholas-Archer *grimacing...what does he mean emotions are a weakness? I look over at Kellan and then back to Tegan.* But what if we use our emotions to help fight?


Kellan Archer *Picking up the gloves and pads I quickly put them on and wait for further instructions as he starts to pace in front of us. Looking at Mira wanting to help her but not wanting to get on Tegan’s bad side by doing so*


Mira Nicholas-Archer *As I slide my gloves on, I can't help but think that this all sounds cold-hearted to me. Rennie isn't cold hearted? I sneak a glance at Kellan and wonder what he is thinking of all of this.*


Kellan Archer You mean you want me to fight her like she is my enemy? *Looking from Tegan to Mira* I don’t know if I can do that, I mean she is human. What if I hurt her?


Mira Nicholas-Archer *I feel blood rush to my cheeks when Tegan declares that he knows we are a couple. Omg...everyone knows!! Thoughts rush through my head at the challenge Tegan has given us* But... *looking Kellan up and down with my eyes wide* you don't mean real fighting, do you?


Kellan Archer *Shaking my head at his question I look at Mira and shrug* Ok let’s do this and be done with it. * Going to the center of the room I wait for her to follow* You throw the first punch and we will go from there!


Mira Nicholas-Archer *following Kellan out to the middle of the mats, I stand before him in my fighting stance, looking at him right in the eye and whisper* I know you won't really hurt me...I trust you. *I know in my heart he won't hurt me, it would hurt him too much to do so. With a sigh, I make my first move...thrusting my small fist into his hard stomach, right below his rib cage.*


Kellan Archer *Trying not to move too fast and not really wanting to hit her, I glance over and see Tegan looking at me with that; you better stop playing look on his face. I start to throw jabs at her trying to forget that it is really Mira that I am hitting*


Mira Nicholas-Archer *The solid muscle of Kellan's body makes it hard to give punches that make any kind of impact. My only advantage is that I am smaller, much smaller and able to move around him faster. I spin out of his reach and catch him behind the knee, forcing him to lose balance.*


Kellan Archer *As I get knocked off balance a little, I laugh and start to taunt her* Come on Mouse you can do better than that! *Hitting her in the head with a left jab she staggers back a little and comes at me again*


Mira Nicholas-Archer *staggering back, angry at his taunts and the fact that the hardness of his body makes it difficult for me to make any impact whatsoever. This is why knives are better!* You shouldn't taunt someone who is shorter than you! *ducking out of his reach I deliver a left jab to the rips and punch him hard in the stomach again...leaving a slight sting in my knuckles*


Kellan Archer *Feeling a little of a sting as her temper starts to get the better of her* See I knew you could hit harder than a girl! *I take a step back as hits me again smiling at her* Come on hit me!


Mira Nicholas-Archer *I try to brush off feeling bad about my temper but I can't help but feel that I stung him. He urges me on so I deliver a few more jabs to his ribs, realizing too late that my slight move to the right was not a good idea. I feel his fist slam into my rib cage, knocking all of the air from my lungs and causing my body to collapse backward onto the floor.*


Kellan Archer *Everything starts to move in slow motion as I realize that I hit Mira too hard; I hear her breath leave her body and she starts to fall to the floor. In a flash of speed I catch her before she hits the mat, feeling my eyes turn amber and my fangs emerge* Oh god Mouse are you ok? *Turning my attention and anger to Tegan* This is all your fault, I told you we shouldn’t have done this!


Mira Nicholas-Archer *Watching the exchange in shock, I slowly catch my breath* It's okay...*breath* I'm okay! *I give Kellan's forearms a squeeze to bring his attention back to me and away from a clearly homicidal Tegan* You didn't hurt me too much. *his amber eyes finally lock with mine* Please don't do anything rash, it would hurt me more if you were hurt.



Kellan Archer *Feeling Mira squeeze my arm I turn back to her, feeling that she is hurt more than she is telling us. Calming down some I pick her up giving Tegan one last look* I’m going to take her to Tess, just to make sure she is ok!
