Taiyang and Yang were locked in combat. Taiyang threw two swings at Yang, to which she guided both of them away from her. Yang then spun around and threw a high kick at Taiyang's head. He avoided the attack and threw his fist forwards towards Yang's stomach. She managed to block in time, however the force caused her to slide back

As the two continued to fight back and forth, Zwei and Dakkon were sitting on the sidelines watching them. Dakkon having a large bruise on his cheek from previously training with Yang. Taiyang jumped up and threw a downwards kick on Yang, she raised her arms to block it and pushed him off. Yang followed up with a solid hit as he landed. Taiyang grunted at the pain and held his arm as he slid back

Taiyang: whoa... that thing packs a punch!

Dakkon: oh please, tell me about it

Yang: we've been at this for weeks. I get it, you wanna make sure I can still fight

Yang punched her fists together with complete confidence written on her face

Yang: I think I'm doing just fine

Taiyang: you're close

Taiyang walked over and began circling Yang

Yang: oh, really?

Yang placed a hand on her hip as she watched Taiyang

Taiyang: you're still off balance

Yang: what?! No I'm not!

Taiyang laughed to himself

Yang: honestly, I'm kind of surprised

Yang raised her prosthetic arm and looked at it

Yang: I thought it would just be this huge weight, but... it feels... natural. They did a great job with this thing

Taiyang ran at Yang while she was distracted and punched her face. While initially shocked, Yang shook it off and blocked a second attack from Taiyang. Yang swung her elbow and Taiyang and he blocked, Yang followed with a high kick to which he avoided. Yang continued to serve several kicks at Taiyang's defence. Yang then threw some punches until Taiyang grabbed Yang's arm and threw his elbow at her head. Yang managed to stop it, however the two were now in a stalemate

Taiyang: I wasn't talking about your actual balance

Taiyang moved his leg and tripped Yang onto her back. Yang lay there to catch her breath as Taiyang walked over to Zwei and Dakkon. Dakkon knew what he wanted and threw him one of the towels on the seat next to him

Taiyang: although, that could use some work too

Dakkon got to and walked over to Yang with the other towel in his hand as Taiyang bent down and rubbed Zwei's head

Yang: meaning?

Yang sat up and Dakkon offered the towel to her. Yang takes it and wipes her face with it. Taiyang also wiped his face before continuing

Taiyang: I saw your tournament fights. During the Vytal festival

Yang: let me guess, "I was sloppy"

Taiyang thought for a moment

Taiyang: no, no, you were predictable. And... stubborn. And maybe a little boneheaded

Yang swivelled around on the spot to face Taiyang and crossed her legs
