Meison Declain
*I had been sitting in my office for hours,
speaking to various officials and trying to get The Dome to bypass more
regulations. Dia handled the physical aspects of the
business, and I dealt with the technical behind the scenes issues. With the
phone pressed against my ear, I rose to stretch my feet, wandering to the
verandah that overlooked The Dome. Narrowing my eyes as I noticed Satora going
through several sword motions*
Satora Razza ~I stepped forward into the center of the hidden outside glade, clearing my mind as I held the sword up and began my warmup routine. I was used to the weight of the weapon but I still had not mastered control of it or precision. Sighing, I swung at the tree in front of me frustrated when the blow was lower than where I was aiming. I would get this, if I had to practice every free hour.~
Meison Declain *Pressing my face closer against the one way glass, I studied her movements, making note of her techniques. She was a fast learner, her steps and hand movements reasonably steady. Yet, there was a disjoint - Less fluidity that came with consciously thinking over every motion* No, that would never do *I murmured distractedly into the phone. The agitated voice on the other end let me know I had voiced my thoughts aloud* No, that was a musing of mine. Continue...
Satora Razza ~I took another step
back and used my Breed speed to instantly appear in front of the tree and stab
it then muttered.~ There's more than one way to kill something. ~Breathing in
deep, I scanned the area certain I was still alone and took my formal stance again
as I eyed the tree with disdain.~
Meison Declain *Wrapping up my phone
call, I cleared my desk, securing my files in the privacy of my safe. There was
no need to tempt Dia with my sources. For all I knew, the distraction below
could have been a ploy. Shaking my head at the paranoia that came with working
with a volatile Breed, I made my way outside for some chat time with the lovely
and lethal Satora*
Satora Razza ~Going through the
motions again, I worked my muscles until the sword felt like an extension of my
arm. Now, the commands needed to come automatically and precisely. Growling as
I missed another mark, I mentally went through my moves critically reviewing what
I was missing.~
Meison Declain *Arriving at the
clearing, I grabbed one of the extra swords and palmed the blade. I nodded in
greeting to Satora, ignoring the irritated expression on her face. Testing the
balance of the sword, I smiled as old memories flooded back to me. Times much
different than these - Dangerous times, but with special moments nonetheless*
Satora Razza ~I turned to my
unexpected company and wondered why I had not heard his arrival. I tensed at
how involved in my training I had been, then nodded at him briskly~ Do you know
how to use that weapon, Mr. Declain?
Meison Declain Yes, I'm somewhat
familiar with them. I noticed you were having some trouble. May I be of
assistance?
Satora Razza ~I gave him a sardonic
smile.~ How would you have noticed that? Have you been watching me? ~Deciding
not to start a confrontation~ Nevermind, I will take you up on that offer. What
do you suggest?
Meison Declain *I smiled wide, but
subdued it at her frown* We'll be working together for the foreseeable future.
I suggest you turn that frown upside down and learn to deal with me. *I gripped
her wrists delicately, upturning the blade in her hands* You're missing passion.
You're thinking with your head, but ignoring you heart. Let the blade be an
extension of you *Giving myself a wide berth from her, I demonstrated my words,
moving in sync with the blade - an extension of my arms* Do you see where I'm
going or am I boring you?
Satora Razza ~I lowered my sword to
the ground, ignoring his advice about me and concentrating on his actions. His
movements were graceful and hypnotizing to watch. He had what I wanted, needed.
I continued to follow him as he moved around the clearing, murmuring a single
word without thought.~ Beautiful. ~Seeing the lift of his brow, I knew he had
heard my whisper and it only added to what already intrigued me about this
male.~
