Forum-Index → Roleplay → School of Warriors [RP]The dummy attacks several more times. There are a few near misses, but Clarissa blocks all the attacks.
Deciding that the demonstration has gone for long enough (especially since it probably was quite boring), Clarrisa moves in to attack. She changes her stance and her training sword begins to glow. Then, the dummy attacks. Clarissa doesn't anticipate the attack and fails to dodge. The sword hits Clarissa's left shoulder with a loud thunk.
Clarrisa swings her sword, but is off balance and misses the bulk of the dummy. She manages to hit the dummy's arm. The sheer force of the attack tears the arm off, sending it flying into the air.
Clarrisa quickly backs up again. She makes an effort to maintain a defensive stance, even as her left arm hangs limp.
"Should I continue the demonstration?" she asks. Her voice shakes.
Seiza closed his eyes and the dummy shrivelled away. "It's alright, I see your power's potential. We'll hone in on your swordsmanship eventually," he reassured her, turning to another student. Sending a star in their direction, Sieza looked at the person he chose and muttered, "Zetia, you're next."
She feels the gaze of others on her. Hopefully, everybody would forget her by the end of the session. Tears well up in Clarissa's eyes, but crying would bring even more attention to herself. If they didn't think she was weak after her demonstration, they would definitely think she was weak now. So, she continues to stare at the floor and frantically rub her eyes before tears formed.
(She does have a nice side lol)
Harpy shot up with a tissue in her hand. "Hey!! You did really well!! I have no idea how to fight, I would have been destroyed!" Harpy laughed a bit, handing her a tissue. "You'll get there, we all will." Suddenly realising she had just said the most cliche thing possible, she shut her trap and just smiled.
Kodama felt warmed a bit, too.
Other people blocking his view is what made him react so late, but from what he saw, someone got stabbed and is now being comforted by some people. Including that creepy-looking sniper.
If even them were helping someone, the situation must have been really bad.
In fact, he did see an arm flying off.
He rushed out of his spot and soon stood right in front of Clarisse, almost stumbling on her. He was momentarily relieved on seeing that both arms were still there, although one seemed like it could fall off at any moment.
"Oh dear." He began. "Are you okay? Who did this to you? A monster? Someone else?" His eyes were completely focused on the wound on her shoulder.
"Thanks... I'll try my best," Clarissa responds to Venus and Harpy, wiping away her tears with the tissue. Maybe this entire incident wasn't bad. Making a first impression as a skilled warrior would have been ideal, but as it was, Clarissa could meet her classmates, and get some much-needed advice and help.
To Salvator, she says, "I'm okay. Uh, a blunt training sword hit my shoulder."
Noticing his focus on her shoulder, she adds, "It hurts a bit to move it. I don't think it's anything major though..."
It definitely hurt more than "a bit", but Clarissa didn't want to cause too much trouble. This much attention was more than enough, even if it could be potentially useful.
He sat on the ground and placed his medkit on his laps. Opening it, he grabbed his scissors, and made a cut in the thick string of glowing, golden bandage. Getting up, he closed his medkit and carefully wrapped the piece around the wound. "In the next few hours, you will probably stop feeling pain from the wound, only if someone touches it." His tone slightly changed, now being closer to that of a teacher or doctor. "But the damage will be very serious if you get hit on the same spot again."
He quickly shifted back to his anxious, observant self, after noticing everyone focusing on him and Clarisse's shoulder. And also, Venus' existence. "Eh...well...be more careful next time?" He sounded like those words got stuck on his neck and he had to spit them out. He quickly ran back to his spot, slightly blushing.
Harpy looked at the cleric gratefully. "Anyway, what're all your names? I'm Harpy Sora, warrior name is Harpy too." She glanced around the room at her classmates.
Kodi stayed in her seat, close to the situation. "I'm Kodi! Hopefully soon Topaz." She told them all.
Kodama glanced at the situation, convincing herself to be involved, she muttered, "Kodama Midori. Dryad." And glanced at the girl who was going to show off her powers.
“I’m Hayden, Also know as Orb” Hayden says as he bows.
(Do I just control what the dummy does?)
Taking his advice into mind, she says, "I'll definitely try not getting injured again!"
Then, the lights go out. What a perfect opportunity to get injured.
Clarissa slowly moves toward a wall. She didn't like standing isolated in the dark. To the students introducing themselves, she says, "I'm Clarissa! Nice to meet you all!"
The dummy then starts to charge where it heard Zetia. Zetia dodges and hits the back of dummy with her foot and then jumps back. The dummy tries to hit Zetia in the leg, Zetia dodges and stabs the dummy in the arm, but the dummy hits her leg as well, but Zetia doesn't notice. Zetia then unsummons the daggers and summons a whip, she whips it to the dummy and the dummy dodges. Zetia then runs towards the dummy and wraps the whip around it. The dummy hits Zetia in shoulder, she still keeps the dummy wrap. "I'm done, nice try mr or ms. Dummy." She says and let's go of the dummy and then walks back to the class.
