"My Watch Sergeant would like you," Beka said, out of breath as she rolled to her feet. She rubbed her side where the elbow strike had landed as she waited for Rose to get up as well.

"Cause she's short and can kick anyone's ass," Beka replied, moving in again with a kick at Rose's hips. She followed it up with a punch at Rose's jaw.

"Who're you calling short?" Rose deadpanned, her forearm flashing down to block the kick and holy hell, that was going to leave a bruise tomorrow. She didn't quite move fast enough to avoid the punch, but she minimized some of the impact.
Hoping Beka's attention was still focused high, Rose threw two hard jabs towards her midsection

"That's cause you're smart," she teased. Was it sad that even though she hadn't sparred with Ben for weeks, she still automatically expected that move? Rose jumped over the leg sweep, landing easily and kicking at Beka's head.

"Okay," Jaime said as he found some open space and settled into one of only three basic fighting stances that he knew. "Try not to embarrass me too badly in front of all these people? I'm still a teenager, and that means I've got my ego to worry about."

"Awwwww," Dinah teased. "Spoil a young girl's dreams." She grinned and settled into her own stance, eyeing him and running down everything she remembered from their last fight. "So, I shouldn't do any pro wrestling take-downs?" she asked, starting to circle him.

"Yeah, no body slamming me through a folding table," he teased as he turned in place to watch her. Jaime was definitely going to wait for her to make the first move.
Peacemaker would have rolled his eyes and kicked his butt for that.

Dinah's patience was getting better, but still wasn't infinite. She shot an experimental kick toward his knee, already guessing where he's jump or dodge to if it didn't connect, and moving to aim a punch toward that space.
Fighting cute guys, she noted once again, was its own kind of fun.
Re: Open SparringweldedtomyspineSeptember 13 2009, 18:12:22 UTC
Jaime did indeed dodge the kick. Right into her punch. He stumbled back slightly, his arm swinging out unconsciously toward her ribs in one of the counters that had been drilled into him.
Re: Open SparringweldedtomyspineSeptember 13 2009, 18:22:56 UTC
With the one automatic counter, Jaime fell back into the patterns that had basically been beaten into him. His arm came up in a hard block, which really hurt since Dinah's elbow was... well, as hard as an elbow. But before the pain could register he was already driving a straight punch for her stomach.
Re: Open SparringblondecanarySeptember 13 2009, 18:26:47 UTC
Dinah slammed her other arm down to block and ow that hurt, too close, left herself open, not smart!
Twisting her body sideways, she snapped a kick toward his ankle, and then moved to try to get behind Jaime, fast as she could, ready to aim a blow at his shoulder-blades.
"Do you fight with your girlfriend?" Might as well try for distraction too.

Rose went down, throwing an elbow strike towards Beka's midsection to try to keep the other girl away as she tried to roll away.

"Couldn't call you stocky," she managed, making a face. She missed her baton. No point, she dropped low, making a sweep for Rose's legs.
