"Why would he let you do it only to immediately ruin it?" Sasha pushed back, not entirely following Viral's thought process. If Korian was so against it he never would have given the green light for this. Why the leader himself hadn't shown up was an easy one too. "He's kind of leading all of us, he can't just walk away to fight whenever he pleases," she pointed out, bracing and deflecting the blows coming her way. Trying to use Viral's momentum against him she ducked beneath a strike and swung up at his sides, hoping to wind him and stagger him both. When her hand was caught she promptly attempted to switch it up and kick him in the opposite side, gasping as she was lifted up and slammed over onto her back. Freeing her hand she rolled on her shoulders and shot back up to her feet, eyes wide but a smile on her face.

"Sorry, but that's kind of how we were trained. How [i]everyone[/i] was trained," admitted Sasha with a sheepish smile, "That might explain why so many of our troops are out-dueled. And why Korian's letting you train people now. Obviously we need it." Lowering her hands and taking a measured breath she closed her eyes, slowly raising and lowering her hands in front of herself before looking at Viral mischievously. "I'll try something different, I hope it makes things a bit more interesting for you." Taking a jump back Sasha held her hands out at her sides, slowly moving them through the air as she closed her eyes. The air around her shimmered, dirt pulled from the ground and air slowly clumped together and solidified into small projectiles. With a flash several of them ignited, and with a sly smile she looked at Viral, throwing one hand forward and sending a volley in his direction.
