Edge hit the ground, again. He'd been out here for hours trying to get used to sword play, his summon expected him to fight with her. He could shoot the bow fine but he lacked the practice he needed with the blade, he'd been laid out on the pavement a dozen times already by Auriel. He got up again tired and sweaty he steady his feet attacked, he moved in perfect rhythm, he thought of it like dancing. He had taught himself to dance as a kid when he played music, seemed to a good way to entertain yourself when you have nothing else to do. He turned as he parry and attacked with a savage swing that missed it's mark, his blows came quick yet he was to weak. To weak to fight like a knight or angel, so this time he did something different, when she slashed from the side he jumped right over the blade landed on the sword kicking it to the ground he put his sword to her chest and smiled. "Check mate." Auriel retrieved her blade they began once more, her summoner took a different stance than the she taught him, his strike came fast and with little power then she struck, he was gone. The little boy had rolled around her and come up behind her, only suddenly taking flight saved her from a loss as she dove jump and tackled her to the ground in a hug. Seemed her summoner was developing his own style of sword play, one where he able to use his talents to his advantage. She proudly patted him on the head and got up, dusting herself off she smiled. "You've got quite an aptitude for this, perhaps you should have been Angel. You've got the looks for it." She chuckled as they trudged back towards Edge's room. The boy felt dead on his feet but proud of all he learned and accomplished, a soak in hot spring would be awesome or at least a hot tub. He had heard someone mentions baths around here somewhere, he should check that out... After a shower first to get the smell of sweat and hard work.
