"When the light started out they don’t know what they heard
Strike the match, play it loud, giving love to the world
We'll be raising our hands, shining up to the sky
'Cause we got the fire, fire, fire
Yeah we got the fire, fire, fire"

-" Ok so let's start with reflexes, because if you don't have good instincts how you're gonna know how and where to fight back?" The woman said. " I'm gonna try to hit you with this rubber stick" she explained waving a large and heavy stick " And with a blindfold you have to try to stop the stick from hitting you."

-" Why blindfolded?" Madison with a bewildered face.

-" That's the point of this: Heighten your senses. Imagine if you stumble upon the Fairies of Elements and they decide to fog everything to attack easier. You'll be dead or really close to death if you don't really get that sixth sense to work for any situtation." The woman explained. " Now put this blindfold." She said handing a red blindfold. Madison took it with a huff.

-" Start protesting and I'll kick you out of here. I wasn't the one who suggested this training thing." The woman threatened. Madison gulped and put the blindfold on.

-" On the count of three I start." The woman took a breath before shouting "Three!" and hitting Madison on the lower back. Madison shouted in pain.

-" What was that? It fucking hurts! And as long as I know there's two numbers before three."

-" That's the stick. And everything can happen in a blink, you must be prepared at all times. And be a stone for fuck's sake, don't reveal how you feel." She said hitting on the injured leg, which made Madison fall on the floor.

-" You have 10 seconds to stand up. 1, 2, 3..."

Madison stood up at second 5.

-" Good timing, but if you stood up at second 2 you were going to be excellent." The woman said aiming at Madison's forehead, but Madison heard the waving and ducked in time.

-" You actually ducked, very good. But sometimes you'll need more than that." and she hit Madison in the back before she could stand up again.

 The next 15 minutes consisted on the same routine of Madison being hit, having lucky instincts every 5 blows, and the woman adding new rules at every hit. Madison was beyond exhausted, with a throbbing head, and sore back and legs. But luckily she could feel a big blow aimed at the back of her head, and instead of receiving it she grabbed blindly the stick, grabbed it hastily from the woman, and threw it somewhere in the backyard that made things fall off from their place. She took off the blindfold, blinked a couple times to adjust to the light and saw the mess she made.

-" That was impressive. If this situation happens to you try to get some couple hits and blows and then make a surprise attack; It'll be easier to defeat them." The woman said clearly impressed by Madison's throwing. "Now let's take a break."

-" Thank God." Madison mumbled to herself.
