I stepped off the plane and into the nice warmth of the Australian sun.

Adrian, Zyair, Alek, and Rayven were by my side.

Adrian: Well. Now that were back, what do you all want to do?

I shrugged silently.

Zyair: Well would you look at that.

He pointed forward and we saw four agents in training.

They were being briefed by an agent thats alot bigger than the rest.

He carried a shield, but his was different from most.

It was massive.

Zyair: Gilles Toure. "Montagne".

Me: The hell kinda shield is that?

Adrian: He calls it "Le Rock".

Montagne seemed to be training operators.

It eventually became a full on training brawl between Montagne and one of the recruits.

The recruit got his ass handed to him.

Then another agent followed up behind Montagne.

I reconized her.

Zofia Bosak.

Zofia: Gilles. Still training recruits?

Gilles: Its my job.

They talked for a while.

Then Timur came up to me from outside the plane.

Timur: Remember how I said I knew an agent who could help your melee combat?

I nodded.

Timur pointed to Zofia.

Zyair: Ha! Good luck with that...

Adrian: Are you trying to get him killed?

Rayven: Zofia Bosak is the greatest hand-to-hand fighter SIX has ever seen. He's gonna get hurt!

Timur: If he's gonna face his brother, he's gotta learn somehow.

Me: Im up for the challenge!

Rayven: No your not! You JUST got out of the hospital!

Me: Gotta recover somehow.

Adrian: Ima just file a casualty report.

I walked up to Zofia and Montagne.

Me: Agent Zofia.

She looked at me.

Zofia: Agent Dragon, I belive?

I nodded.

Montagne: The one who sets stuff on fire?

I nodded again.

Zofia: What brings you here?

Me: Ive been wondering about... Well, you see, my melee combat skills aint to great and I was wondering if you could help me with that.

She looked at me with a stone face for a second.

Zofia: This is sudden. I do not believe we have any interactions previous to this, and your coming and asking me for help?

Me: Yes. Your the best after all. Or is that a lie?

I was challenging her now.

Gilles: Oh god.

Zofia: Are you in doubt of my skills, agent?

Me: I expected you to be up for a fight.

Then she swung.
