Trinity -
Ellen led Leo up to the 50th floor - The Dojo. Demetri was alone there, with his back to them as they came in. He turned to face his new pupil. Demetri- "It's been a weird night. Ellen, Trileon."
Ellen- "She prefers 'Leo'. Maybe it's best to save the details for later. Hey, I'm free for the moment & I know this whole situation is a lot to handle. Anything you'd like me to do?"
Demetri- "Mm, I'll let you know if I think of anything. Thank you."

"Yo. Yeah, call me Leo. Trileon sounds too formal for me." "I'm ready to kick some metaphorical ass."

Ellen started to walk away, saying her goodbyes as she went. Ellen- "Good night everyone. I'll take care of some odds and ends and come back soon, I think."
Demetri- "Thanks again, well, Leo..."
Ellen was gone. Demetri- "You have a bit of experience fighting, yes? Any formal training?"

"Sort of. Does watching a bunch of cheesy karate movies as a kid count? If so I have a friggin' black belt."

Demetri- "I believe most of the martial arts films were unduly influenced by the style of southern Song Boxing - kung fu as performed in traditional theater there. But it's better than nothing. What of your actual fighting experience? How many fights have you been in? Or have you lost track? How skilled do you think your opponents were?"

"In my life?" She started counting on her fingers. "I wanna say.. twenty-two. Well, twenty-three as of tonight.." "Some of them were just a couple of drunks looking for trouble, others were these big guys," She flexed her arms and puffed out her chest for emphasis, "And a handful were just one guy. As far as skill, I'd say a good number of them held their own, and very few sucked."

They heard one of the elevators start rising through the shaft and Demetri smiled. Demetri- "Good, good. Fights often turn into grappling very quickly, so someone with very little combat experience may only be familiar with that type of fighting. Of your fights, how many stayed at arm's length? How many stayed upright?"

"It turned into wrestling like once or twice, and other than that about all of them were arm's length." She turned her head at the noise,
"Who else is joinin' us?"

Demetri- "Both are important forms of combat to master, but freedom of movement is often better for us..."
The elevator opened. (( Padmé AmiDaniella - pick ur outfit and intro Sophie, remember she knows she's going to practice martial arts tonite.)) Francesca- "We're in the house, yo!"

Leo ran a hand through her spiked hair in an effort to make it more presentable. Man, if she had know Fran was gonna be here, she would have taken more time to get dressed. "Sup."

Francesca- "Well hello, tall stuff."
Demetri- "Mm, no Sophie. In fact, I hope to find a human that will work for this job sometime soon. Meanwhile, think of this as an older brother teaching you a few tricks."

"Cool, cool. What's goin' on, friend?" She offered Leo a high-five. Up high, of course.

Leo accepted the offer. Much high-fiving was had. "Can't complain that much I guess. I'm looking forward to some training man, you don't know."
