Sarah's POV

"Alright, we're gonna work on kicks." I start as I walks on the mats

The students in front of me nod their heads, I look at the fact that some of them look oblivious and the others look prepared for almost anything.

"A few things to do when someone sends a kick your way, depending on the height and distance. If they do a high one, you can duck or back up-if it's low than you can jump over it, if it's right in the center in the waist area then you can try to jump back or catch it." I list off

The kids take notes, nodding their heads as they remember my words.

"What if we're unable to dodge it?" Petal asks

"That's where the term 'Flight or Flight' comes in, you can try to catch their leg or kick out their other one." I nod

"And if we can't catch it?" Charlie asks

"Well then..you're just going to have to take it. I know that taking kicks hurts, they can hurt especially if the other person is much bigger or muscular than you, but it will teach you tolerance." I sigh in admittance

They nod solemnly, looking down at the floor in disappointment of what I explained.

"Can I get a volunteer?" I ask as I get a little excited

Luckily, I was a bit smarter to wear something more appropriate for fighting in.

One person raises their hand, just before I can gesture for them to come to the front; a person walks in the doors whom accidentally takes all the attention from the room.

"No need, i'd be a better partner. Sarah's really good at fighting, I figure you know why, but she's a good teacher as well." Natalia informs as she walks in the room

She makes her way to the mats, holding her hand out for a shake, I give it a sideways high five and we pull into a half hug thing I see Sam and Steve do.

"You ready?" I nod

"Are you?" she smirks

We set out a small distance away from each other, only enough to stay close enough to dodge the strike.

She nods of permission, giving me the consent to send my leg towards her.

I give her one with a half twist, she catches it and lets go of my leg after a few seconds. The kids take in the scene, some beginning to get ready to ask more questions.
