Jess bit the inside of her lip. [color=teal]"Let's hope we don't have to use this,"[/color] she said. [color=teal]"But best to know these things... And to have each other's backs."[/color] It wasn't just enemies of the business who were the problem. She thought back to Maxwell, how utterly terrified Roxy had been of him, how he'd looked at and spoken to her. Jess didn't know what had gone on in the past between them, besides the marriage arrangement, but with two people knowing defense skills... She could only hope people like that would be less likely to cause issues.

She took her place beside Roxy, all too aware of her lack of experience. What stance should she even take? A blush crept across her cheeks. It was stupid, she knew Roxy wouldn't judge her, but considering the anchor's skill and strength, Jess couldn't help that squirming feeling of self-consciousness. [i]Relax,[/i] she reminded herself, [i]it'll be fine.[/i] If she messed up, at least they'd both have something to laugh about, which could be what they needed. 

[color=teal]"So,"[/color] she asked, [color=teal]"which moves are best to start with?"[/color]
