The Graveyard | Afternoon | Friday | September 17

When Bod had left for the graveyard earlier that morning, he'd been expecting just to have a few hours of quiet contemplation. He hadn't expected to dodge what looked like flying fish, he hadn't expected to get his arm bitten to the point of bleeding and he certainly hadn't expected to wield a broken tree branch as a weapon ( Read more... )

"Dude...get a sharper branch."

Faith's voice came at the same time an arrow made its way through two flying piranhas that were luckily already dead...thus making them dead-dead, if that even made sense. Faith closed the distance between her and the boy, realizing how little use she would have of a crossbow with the numbers she was facing there. "Here", said as she tossed the crossbow and a bunch of bolts -but with enough care to avoid getting Bod any more hurt, really-. "Just don't put one of me and we'll be best pals." That said, she unsheathed the sword she was carrying around; the stake would need to take a break from this one.

Wasn't she forgetting about something? "Uh...I'm Faith."

Bod shook his head at the weapon, already pushing it back towards her. "I don't want it and my branch is fine, thank you. I'm not completely inept."

He'd defended himself before with just his wits and his fists. He didn't want to deal with a foreign weapon from someone he didn't know.

Faith raised an eyebrow. "A pacifist on a graveyard." Now she had seen it all. Or most of it all, perhaps. "Just leave the crossbow there on the ground", said as she turned around. "And check that bite; there is a clinic for that sort of things." Teacher or not, she wasn't having a student bleeding to death right next to her.

"I'm fine," he said, shaking his arm and his head. "And I'm not a pacifist. I don't know how to use your weapon so I'd rather stick to what I know. Thank you anyway."

Bod ducked another flying fish thing before standing up and swinging his tree branch at the two that were following it, knocking them pretty far back.
