Han breaks in the new guy...

<RonSWEF> ::Lo Han walks quietly down to the main cargo bay, emptying her mind in preparation for the coming session:: what martial training have you received?

<Felix_Thorne> :: steps into the bay and stands across from her:: Several varieties, but I am most adept at fencing and unarmed martial arts.

<Victor_Shirley> ::follows quietly, not so sure he likes this idea::

<Victor_Shirley> ::finds a good place to stand out of the way::

<Han> then we will begin unarmed. :: pulls off her shirt to reveal a spandex top and a harness holding several thin plastic throwing daggers::

<Felix_Thorne> :: nods and takes off his coat, folding it neatly and setting it aside, along with his sword belt and boots:: Bare handed and footed I assume?

<Han> If you wish. ::the cargo bay is empty now aside from Vic's chicken coops, and the floor has been swept clean. Han takes off her loose trousers as well, revealing tight shorts. She really doesn't need to strip down to fight, but she wants to test how distractible he is as well - even though that might upset Vic if he realizes::

<Victor_Shirley> ::frowns a bit, still not liking this:: Both: What's next? Blindfolds?

<Felix_Thorne> :: nods and takes off his socks and over shirt, leaving him in simple long pants and a sleeveless shirt::

<Han> ::Han begins a graceful kata that also serves as a warm-up, making her way across the floor to her preferred starting area::

<Felix_Thorne> :: uses his prep time to stretch, before moving to stand the typical starting distance away from Han::

<Han> ::Han bows to him politely:: the purpose of the exercise is to demonstrate your skills. defeat me if you can, but do not attempt injury and none will be attempted against you.

<Felix_Thorne> :: nods and performs a crisp bow in return::

<Victor_Shirley> ::keeps his eye on Felix:: Both: Just make this a fair fight. In other words no killin'

<Han> Vic: he understands.

<Victor_Shirley> Han: I was talkin' to you too.

<Han> Vic: i do not kill needlessly.

<Felix_Thorne> :: smiles:: Good to know.

<Han> ::Han nods briefly, a sign of beginning. Then she is moving quickly toward Felix, attacking him with a thorough but basic combination of attacks::

<Felix_Thorne> :: steps into a defensive stance the moment she makes a move, dodging and blocking her attacks without attempting to counter::

<Han> ::Han continues to attack, varying punches and kicks to determine how flexible his defense is::

<Felix_Thorne> :: remains on the defensive, moving when necessary and keeping his motions fluid, trying to gauge her style::

<Han> ::the style Han is showing him seems to be a refinement of the Northern Tiger style of kung fu, focusing on swift powerful attack::

<Felix_Thorne> :: keeps blocking for a few more moments, then suddenly deflects one of her blows and steps into her with a quick, but powerful, palm strike to her upper chest::

<Han> ::Han grunts as she takes the hit, back-stepping half a pace to absorb some of the forces, then snapping back with a kick aimed at his stomach::

<Felix_Thorne> :: jumps back in an attempt to avoid the kick::

<Victor_Shirley> ::leans against the bulkhead with his arms crossed, thinking that this is all senseless::

<Han> ::Felix manages to avoid contact, but Han pulls her foot back quickly and advances hard on him, pressuring him with twisting punches::

<Felix_Thorne> :: moves his hands quickly to block her blows, trying to keep from being pelted, before dropping low into a sweep kick as she advances::

<Han> ::the sweep connects with Han's forward leg, but it becomes apparent she was ready for it when she folds over into a handstand, vaults over him, and plants a crouching back thrust kick into his backside as he comes up from his sweep::

<Felix_Thorne> :: stumbles forward from the kick and spins back around to face her:: Nice. :: steps back into his defensive stance::

<Han> ::Han comes up and settles into a defensive stance of her own, face impassive::

<Felix_Thorne> :: nods once:: Alright then. :: changes stances and advances on her slowly, bursting into a sprint after several steps and ending with a short flurry of punches::

<Victor_Shirley> ::watches Han closely, to see if she is sparring as well as she does when she practices::

<Han> ::Han waits until he commits himself to the sprint, then darts forward as well, ducking low and trying to clothesline him. Vic suspects that she is holding back, but not a lot::

<Felix_Thorne> :: catches the movement and decides he can't get out of it, throwing his weight downward in an attempt to either wrench her clothesline arm or knock her down::

<Han> ::Han grunts again as his body slams into her arm, and she is spun around by its force. She manages to keep her balance, though, and before he finishes his charge she is back into a ready stance, not showing any sign that her right arm is aching now::

<Felix_Thorne> :: spins to face her again:: That wasn't very graceful I know, but I was committed by that point. :: rushes at her again, this time sliding to the side just before he reaches her and striking out with a quick roundhouse kick to her midsection::

<Victor_Shirley> Both: Had enough yet?

<Han> ::Han sidesteps toward him and grabs his leg by the knee, using it to pull him off-balance and throw him over her hip::

<Felix_Thorne> :: oofs as he is thrown, attempting to pull off a handspring of his own to keep from slamming into the floor and get some distance between them::

<Victor_Shirley> ::shakes his head:: Self: They may as well knock themselves out.

<Han> ::Han doesn't look back at Vic, as it would be rude and stupid both to take her eyes off Felix:: the gentleman is skilled, but i have not gauged him yet. besides, this is fun.

<Felix_Thorne> :: gets back to his feet and nods, smiling:: Yes it is. I haven't had a match like this in quite some time.

<Han> ::Han nods briefly, then advances quickly. Two steps before reaching Felix, she spins into a series of whirling back punches at his chest and midsection::

<Felix_Thorne> :: steps back into his defensive stance, moving fluidly to block her strikes once again, before attempting to grab her wrist on one blow and throw her over his shoulder::

<Han> ::lets him grab her wrist, but before he can throw her she twists around and slams three strong palm strikes into his midsection::

<Felix_Thorne> :: grunts as he takes the blows, but doesn't let go, instead using his grip to try and pull her into a strong knee strike to the gut::

<Han> ::Han isn't able to break his grip, but she's experienced enough with close fighting to avoid his knee. Then she falls backward, using his grip against him as she uses a foot to send him into a back roll throw::

<Felix_Thorne> :: winces as he spots the move but can't stop it, just making sure he keeps a firm grip on her wrist when she throws him, trying once again to wrench her arm::

<Han> ::grits her teeth as he does manage to bruise and strain her wrist some, but roll-flips herself on top of him, c0cking her arm back for a devastating punch to his head:: you may let go now.

<Felix_Thorne> :: nods and lets her go:: Nice match.

<Han> ::nods and gets off of him, rubbing her wrist slightly:: you have received considerable training. where?

<Felix_Thorne> :: jumps up to his feet and stretches again:: The Companion Guild.

<Victor_Shirley> ::sighs, hoping it is over::

<Han> ::raises her eyebrows:: interesting. it explains your methods, you have not fought very much outside of dojos, have you?

<Felix_Thorne> :: shakes his head:: No.

<Victor_Shirley> Both: So that's it? No bloodshed? ::grins briefly::

<Felix_Thorne> :: grins back at Vic:: The lady has far too much control for that.

<Han> ::shrugs:: and his style shows little in the way of deception. i would like to see his sword technique, but that can wait until later.

<Felix_Thorne> :: nods and bows to her once more::

<Han> ::steps closer to look Felix over:: you would be able to protect the girl in the short term, but eventually you would be outwitted or outgunned. it would be better for you to travel with us. the girl has made strong bonds with many members of this crew, they will not fail her.

<Victor_Shirley> ::steps off from the bulkhead he was leaning against and moves to her side:: Han: I'm not so sure that’s the best idea. Maybe he could get training and search us out another time, instead.

<Felix_Thorne> :: frowns to Vic:: I will not leave Adele’s niece here.

<Victor_Shirley> Felix: The Captain has final say in who comes and goes.

<Han> ::shakes her head:: he knows enough that if he were left behind and captured by her pursuers, the information extracted from him would cause us great difficulty. it is the captain's decision, but i recommend bringing him.

<Felix_Thorne> :: stands his ground against the much larger man:: I will NOT leave here without the girl. :: turns back to Han:: But I would be more than willing to remain onboard as her protector here.

<Victor_Shirley> ::says nothing, but doesn't give the impression that he's backing down::

<Han> ::steps between the two men:: it will be the captain's decision.

<Victor_Shirley> Han: That's what I'm sayin'.

<Felix_Thorne> :: moves back to put his shirt and boots back on:: I cannot break my promise to Adele. Your captain must either allow me to remain onboard, allow me to take the girl with me, or remove me by force.

<Victor_Shirley> ::grins at the last option::

<Felix_Thorne> :: buttons up his shirt and straps on his sword belt once again::

<Han> then the posturing is over. i will report to the captain.

<Felix_Thorne> :: smiles at her:: I was not posturing miss, I was simply stating my intentions and making sure they were clear.

<Han> i was not talking to you alone. ::she gives Vic a wink before grabbing her discarded clothing and heading back up the stairs::

<Felix_Thorne> :: smiles again and shakes his head, following after her to head back into the common area and await the captain's decision::

<Victor_Shirley> ::gives her a "what did I do?" look, then watches to see that Felix follows at a good distance::

<Felix_Thorne> :: does of course, being nothing if not well mannered::

<Victor_Shirley> ::heads towards the kitchen to get ice for Han's wrist::

<Han> <<<Fin>>>
