He follows Miranda's look over his shoulder to see the two new comers, but does not give them any more thought, returning his eyes to Miranda and says, "You got it mon amour." Walking back to where Emma, Ian and Skye are, he says, "Just grabbing a tea from machine in the foyer for Miranda, anyone want something?" | | | | Joined: Jun 2009 Posts: 2,032 Likes: 7 Moderator | Moderator Joined: Jun 2009 Posts: 2,032 Likes: 7 | {Skye}
"I'm good. Water and Nuun here." Skye nodded. She was curious about the two men - and wondering if one was going to a competitor. But, the young woman reasoned that she couldn't worry about it for now. It had been a solid practice, and now they had a party to attend! | | | | Joined: May 2010 Posts: 16,064 Likes: 20 Mayhem Inc.

Em shifts over for Skye. "I know you will do great next time on the mat!" Emma had no doubt that her friend will triumph before all of this is over. | | | | Joined: Apr 2007 Posts: 173,493 Likes: 7 Babylon 5 Rules Administrator | Babylon 5 Rules Administrator Joined: Apr 2007 Posts: 173,493 Likes: 7 | Ian
He stood with his friends, smiling at the competitors.
"You guys looked great out there." he offered. | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 76,616 Likes: 59 Wizop Administrator | OP Wizop Administrator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 76,616 Likes: 59 | [OOC I know Neptune is busy, so I could roll & write up his match, then move you onto the evening event?] | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 17,984 Likes: 1 Moderator | Moderator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 17,984 Likes: 1 | ooc: I'm sorta back. Let's get this bout going! Levon
He walks to the ring and waits for Mr. Harding to join him there. Skye was good but he knew her. Whether or not Mr Harding had skills, he was an unknown and that meant a greater need for concentration and caution. A good fighter would have good, solid strategies and technique. What separated great fighters from good ones was the ability to anticipate the next sequence of moves.
When Mr. Harding was set, Levon bowed and readied himself for the action.

He returns from the foyer with a cup of tea in hand for Miranda, sitting back down with the others just in time to watch Levon going up against Mr. Harding. “Any bets going on? I’d give a pound for Levon winning.” | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 17,984 Likes: 1 Moderator | Moderator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 17,984 Likes: 1 | Levon
He first approached defensively. The first jab from his opponent would give him momentum to use against him. It ended up with him trying to parry the jab with the purpose of positioning himself in a balanced position to make the real attacks and still maintain his defense. The first retaliation was a side kick but then he continued to whirl into a massive roundhouse with his right heal and when that landed he continued into a leg sweep that would end with a straight punch to either the chest or face, which ever Harding left exposed. Levon Fighting Mr Harding Neptune rolled 1d4,1d4,1d4 and got 2, 4, 4
Levon Two aces! Neptune rolled 1d4,1d4 and got 4, 1
Levon Another ace! Neptune rolled 1d4 and got 2

Probably Miranda could have beaten him in this mode. Their teacher seems distracted as if he has something else on his mind, and physically he does nor perform well either. The bout was quick, humiliating even, and a surprise to Levon, Skye and Miranda who knew his ability.
"Good performance Levon. On that form you should do well. Got to go. See you tonight."
He waves goodbye to everyone and hurries from the room. | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 17,984 Likes: 1 Moderator | Moderator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 17,984 Likes: 1 | Levon He bowed formally and watched as his opponent left like he had to add time to a parking meter.
As the door shut behind Mr Harding, Levon grabbed his towel and walked over to the others but looked directly at Skye. "I'm not that good," he said.

"That was odd. You aren't that good." Skye nodded in response. "He was very distracted. Maybe a hot date? But there's something more." She looked around, as if for clues, but didn't spend long on it. "Well...we have our own party to get ready for - and we both stink." | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 76,616 Likes: 59 Wizop Administrator | OP Wizop Administrator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 76,616 Likes: 59 | There are shower facilities at the gym but also back at the accommodation block. | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 17,984 Likes: 1 Moderator | Moderator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 17,984 Likes: 1 | Levon "We passed the locker rooms when we came in. I think I'll shower here. I would ask you to join me, but I think there are separate locker rooms for men and women," he says to Skye and Miranda with a wink.

"Ha!" She laughed at Levon as she walked back towards the women's lockers - of which she had used upon arrival. "Not even in a drought! Dream on big boy." Skye blew him a teasing kiss. They were still get dressed in their costumes back at the dorms, so it didn't take long for her clean the workout off. When she got back out she asked the girls, "Do we have time to do our hair right, or just fake it for this party?" | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 76,616 Likes: 59 Wizop Administrator | OP Wizop Administrator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 76,616 Likes: 59 | There is about an hour and a half, maybe a bit longer, before the meet up. | | | | Joined: May 2010 Posts: 16,064 Likes: 20 Mayhem Inc.

Em looked at the time. "As long as we are not going for anything intricate, I think we have enough time for hair and makeup. We are going to look smashing tonight!" | | | | Joined: Jun 2009 Posts: 2,032 Likes: 7 Moderator | Moderator Joined: Jun 2009 Posts: 2,032 Likes: 7 | {Skye}
"Of course, darling!" She looped her arm with Em's laughed as they left the gym back to the dorms. "And perhaps we'll solve another murder - or be the murderess with the candlestick in the library!"

"If I have to choose, I would rather be in the audience tossing popped corn at the screen." Emma grins at her friend. "Murderers come to bad ends.

He will give Miranda her tea when she gets back from the change rooms, and will walk back with her to the dorms.
