"Get up!" Lusts voice echoed through the small room.
"Erm...just one more minute." Spartican moaned, rolling over and nuzzling his head under a pillow.
"NOW!" Lust boomed. He was ready to get training and as far as he was concerned they had already wased enough time.
"Fine, jeez." The draculi huffed sitting up groggily. "Wheres Meck?" He asked.

[jazzylily]

"Hes already warming up." Lust said.
"No way." The draculi said under his breath. The Lucain was far to energetic.
"Come on lets go, times a-wastin." The kuhna said stamping his foot impatiently.
"I'm coming, I'm coming." Spartican groaned slowly walking in front of his captain and through the tunnel.
The kuhna knew if he let the Draculi go last he would simply go back to bed.

[jazzylily]

"Finally." Meck groaned when he saw Spartican crawling through the tunnel.
"Hey we all can be freak of natures and enjoy the morning as much as you do." The draculi growled.
Meck shrugged the comment and continued to stretch out, first putting out his leg then bending his neck to create an almost praying position.
Spartican observed, trying to mimick the Lucain but simply ended up falling over.
Lust shook his head.
"Its going to be hopeless with you isn't it?" He asked looking at the draculi.
Spartican simply replied with a grunt.

[jazzylily]

"ok guys so are you all warmed up?" Lust asked, more directed at Meck however.
"Yea." The lucain responded passively.
"Kind of." Spartican sighed, wiping at his eyes and clearing the sleep from them.
"Well then first things first. I want to go over with you two what we will be doing over the next day or so." The kuhna stopped and made sure everyone was following. When he saw they were he continued. "Ok so today we are going to work on our sparing skills. That means each one of us will fight the other once. After that we will do some strengthening activities."

[jazzylily]

The lucain and draculi listened to their captain intently nodding after each thing he explained.
"After we have finished those two things we will have a break for lunch then start some endurance training by running around and such. Any questions?" He stopped and looked at the two. Spartican rasied his paw.
"Yes Spartican?" Lust asked cautiously.
"So...this will take all day?" The draculi yawned.
Lusts eye twitched. 'Are you serious?' He thought to himself.
"I'm not even going to answer that. So lets begin shall we?" He turned to Meck.
"Whatever you say captain." The lucain nodded.

"Alright then to decide which two fight first I have three straws." Lust said holding up in his paw the long sticks. "Whoever gets the shortest and whoever gets the longest will battle. The winner of the battle then goes against the other who has not battled yet. If he wins again he is done for the battle part."
"Sounds good." Spartican sighed.
Meck nodded as well to show he understood.
"Ok everyone." Lust said holding up the straws. "You first Meck."
The Lucain grabbed one with his mouth.
"Your turn." Lust motioned to Spartican. The draculi reached out and grabbed his as well.

[jazzylily]

Holding up the remainign straw, Lust motioned for the others to reciprocate. Meck pushed his up next to Lusts quickly while Spartican took a little more time.
"Well its looks like its you and Spart." Lust sighed, a bit relieved to not have to go first.
"Aw man." The draculi groaned. He had hoped he could sit the first one out but as luck would have it he was going to have to put a little effort out right away.
Meck sighed at the draculis reaction. Slowly walking to the center of the cleared area in the synthetic environment he waited to start.

[jazzylily]

Slowly following behind the Lucan, Spartican tried not to mope.
'I hope it won't be that long of a fight.' He thought to himself.
Meanwhile, Meck stared at his soon to be opponent passively.
'I wonder how good of a fight this will be...wait...what am I thinking...its Spart. Hes not going to put any effort into this fight. Whatever.' Meck thought mentally unhappy that he would be wasting his precious time.
"Ok when I say begin you guys start." Lust said louding. "Ready...set...begin!"

[jazzylily]

Lowering his body in a position he could spring from Spartican watched to see what Mekc first move would be.
The Lucain stood motionless, observing what the Draculi was doing.
'Why isn't he attacking?' Spartican thought. He was sure Mecks tactic would be to charge.
'If I stand like this for awhile it will syke him out, confuse him a bit.' Meck was making plans in his head. He knew if he waited for Spartican to attack first the win would unbearably easy but if he attacked first and he had thought wrong about Spartican wanting to slack off he would risk losing quickly.

[jazzylily]

'Oh to heck with it!' Spartican cried out in his mind. Rushing forward, he charged at the Lucain. If nothing else he would get a hit in. Closing his eyes he swung blindly.
"First mistake." Meck said quiety. The Lucain riased his paw and smacked the draculi down.
"Ow!" Spartican cried as he face planted into the dust.
Meck looked down at his opponent.
"Are you serious? I mean I expected you to be impatient and charge but fighting blindly?" The Lucain shook his head.
"Ugh, whatever! I didn't want to fight first anyway." Spartican growled. Pulling himself up he sulked over to the side lines. "I'm done."

(15-10-13)

[jazzylily]

"Wow...hm." Lust sighed a bit disappointed by the 10 second match.
"What!?! I'm tired." Spartican sighed.
"Thats not going to fly for n excuse during a real battle." Meck said shaking his head.
"Whatever." The draculi groaned not wanting to hear a lecture from either of the two.
"Well than guess its my turn." Lust began walking to the center as he spoke. "At least this will not be as hard for you Meck seeing as you didn't waste any energy."
The Lucain merely shook his head.

[jazzylily]

Posing himself in a fighting stance, Luststared at his opponent.
"Tell us when to go, kay Spart." The kuhna said.
"Sure thing." Spartican responded sarcastically. "Ok start."
Meck and Lust simply shook their heads at the kuhnas lakc of enthusiasm.
Turning their attention back on eachother they once again resumed their battle stances.
Since Lust had already observed Mecks tactic of waiting for the other to attack, Meck knew he might very well have to charge this time around. Waiting for the perfect moment he patiently waited for a slight alter of attention on Lusts behalf.

[jazzylily]

The two stood in battle position for a good five minutes before Lust made his first move. Swishing around his tails he began to form a distration if only for a second. The distraction worked.
Seeing this as his best chance, Lust began to charge the large Lucain, running in a straight line at first then sliding to the left upon finall reaching Meck.
This move threw the Lucain into momentary confusion giving Lust the chance to  deliver the first blow. Whipping his tail around he smacked into Mecks chest.
The Lucain let out a loud Oof sound showing the hit had been effective.

[jazzylily]

Satisfied, Lust jumped back, out of reach from the Lucain.
Reeling back abit himself, Meck took in a deep breath trying to recover from the attack.
He hadn't expected the Kuhna to be so fast.
"Wow that was cool!" Spartican cried from the side lines.
Meck smirked. 'Then your going to think this next move is pretty cool to.' The Lucain thought to himself.
Sliding his paw out, Meck created a cloud of dust which flew up around him, shielding him from sight.
'Uh-oh.' Was all that was on Lusts mind.

[jazzylily]

Glancing around frantically, Lust made sure that the Lucain hadn't some how slipped out of the dust cloud and snuck up behind him. In doing this however, Lust made a huge mistake.
Turning back to the dust cloud the kuhna was horrified to see that it had settled and Meck had dissapeared.
"What the heck? Where did he go?" He cried.
"Behind you!" A voice rose up.
Lust turned into to see Meck slide towards him then launch himself up a bit. Spining around Meck kicked the kuhna then flipped backwards only to land on his feet.
Lust gasped for air after the attack, partly due to his surprise and partly because the wind had been knocked out of him.
