PERCY

I watched with interest and a little bit of exasperation as the boys go at it. The two new recruits decided that it would be better go against each other first before starting the training.

Practice and Warm-up they said.

A little information: They have been going at it for hours, and none of the two seems to be interested on being the loser.

Norman step back before bending down and sweeping his leg out from under him to try and bring down Clause

Clause jumped up to dodge the leg before swiftly spinning his body and making his heel connect with Norman's cheek.

Norman went down, a loud bang heard as his head slammed down on the pavement, hard.

I mentally winced. Ooh... that has got to hurt.

He groaned and tried to shake the dark spots away from his vision, pushing himself up as fast as he could only to curse when he felt the cold metal of Clause's sword resting against his throat

"Yield?" Clause panted out

"Riusae!" Norman spitted out in his language, his hair sticking to his forehead, sweat trickling down his face "I hate you"

Clause snorted "You don't mean that. Yield?"

Norman tried to stand up, but Clause pressed the tip harder "Uh uh uh... Do you yield?"

Norman panted before flopping back down "I'll get you back for this. I yield."

Clause grinned and withdrew his sword, extending a hand to his friend "I know you will"

Norman groaned as he was pulled up and shook his head for a bit; blinking his eyes several times to shake the dark spots away "I will really get you back for this. You didn't hold back on that kick, did you? I can feel a bruise forming"

Clause smiled innocently "You said to not hold back"

"I did said that" Norman nodded, before he punched his friend right in the gut

Clause gasped and bent over, clearly not expecting that despite his acute senses

"But you didn't have to kicked that hard" Norman grunted, smirking at his disgruntled face

"A surprise attack?" Clause groaned, grinning at his friend "I like it"

"That's payback for the hard kick in the face" Norman replied

"But you said to not hold back" Clause moaned "I did just that, and this is what I get?!"

"You didn't have to kick that hard!!"

"You said to not hold back!! Make up your mind!!"

"I said to not hold back on the punches, not the kicks!!"

"They're the same thing!!"

"No, they're not!!"
