Hey, maybe Margot and Brooke weren't all that different when it came to mindset.

Brooke thought those sissy little swords would had made Margot compliant, when in actuality it strengthened her fighting spirit. Or something like that. It made the two of them see eye-to-eye much easier. She softly smiled as she put on a hand on her hip, before chuckling.

"Guess you're right, Blue," Brooke started off, "I have a lot of fighting ahead of me."

She walked over, and looked her in the eye, smiling.

"In, [i]and out,[/i] of the arena, so I have an idea while we wait for the next match to start," Brooke grabbed onto Margot's wrist, and pulled her off through the hallways of the stadium. "I know just the place!"

She hoped nobody was there, but by the time she pushed the door open with the side of her body, there was not a soul in sight. They were probably hyping themselves up for the tournament. She grinned.

What was this place?

A training gym, after all. Complete with punching bags, and more.

"C'mon, Blue," Brooke said. "Remember when I talked about fights outside the arena? Well, in those fights, there ain't gonna be rules. And I know the first thing I'm going to do is take away your swords."

Brooke released Margot from her grasp, and looked at her.

"I'll show you some moves so you can at least [i]surprise[/i] someone." She gave Margot that trademark smile. "That's the creed of Vanburen Karate."
