[IC] Red vs blue freelancer roleplay

[AgentNevada]

The base was quiet. Eerily quiet. Nevada was wide awake, probably from the snoring coming from Maine in the quarters beside her. Had she been slightly dumber she probably would've walked into his room and woke him up. Instead she got up and made a coffee, sure it was 2am but she bet she'd find Ark either training or cleaning her guns. Ken groggly walked threw the base to find Ark; coffee in hand.

[AgentArkansas]

Ark was hunched over breathing heavily as she tried to catch her breath. She had just done 10 km around the training facility and she was so tired. "F.I.L.L.I.S, can you activate training program 5 please" Ark said through her breaths. "ACTIVATING PROGRAM" F.I.L.L.I.S said in her computer voice. Ark stood in a fighting stance ready to kick some circles, when Ken walked through the doors with her coffee. Ark rolled her eyes and asked "your the last person I thought i'd find up at this hour, what are you doing?"

[AgentNevada]

@AgentArkansas "Are you kidding me? I'm always up. Always. You wanna know why?" Ken paused but not long enough for Ark to respond "Because what if Gotham needs me." She took a sip of her coffee, and cracked her neck. "So what's with the training Champ? You'll be exausted Come morning."

[AgentArkansas]

@AgentNevada Ark chuckled as she canceled the program. "Ya i'm sure that'll go along great when Batman finds out that he's getting one-uped". Ark raised an eyebrow at Ken and said " And to answer your question, there is an up-coming mission and I gotta be jacked if i wanna get on that leader board near Carolina". "So really the question is why aren't you training?" Ark asked expectantly

[AgentNevada]

@AgentArkansas Ken merely glanced at the board, her name sitting in the third place spot. "Hey, I know where I belong." She took another sip of her coffee. "You should get some rest, if you want to be at the top of your game." She finished her coffee and tied a hair elastic around her baggy shirt, causing it to hug her body. "I on the other hand, am now very awake and might train."

[AgentArkansas]

@AgentNevada Ark looked up at the leader board when Ken did and Ark's name was 6th. Ark listened to what Ken had to say and asked "well I can go for about another hour before i'm probably gonna crash, wanna spar?" Ark tried to sound confident but knew she was gonna get her ass kicked. Ken was up near Carolina, the best out of the freelancers. So basically I was just asking to get beaten but you know practice makes perfect.

[AgentNevada]

@AgentArkansas Ken's face said it all, it was the express of 'really dude' but she nodded in agreement anyways "Alright kid, you pick the course and I'll soar with you." Ken was planning on going easy on her of course, wouldn't want to damage Arks ego too badly.

[AgentArkansas]

@AgentNevada Ark knew she wasn't going to win and the worst part was that she was going to lose and Ken wasn't even going full-out. She said "Hey F.I.L.L.I.S!, may you please activate course 10" (This is the one with all the blocks on the floor). As the room shifted to form the course, Ark nodded at Ken, in a way saying "do you're worst". Ark walked to her starting position and waited for the alarm to go off signalling for them to attack.

[AgentNevada]

@AgentArkansas Once the blocks went up Ken disappeared, looming about and listing to Ark breath. She quietly hopped up onto the top of a block, jumping to another once she got sights of the other freelancer in her view. She chuckled and lept, pinning the other to the ground with a grin. "Well, hello."

[AgentArkansas]

The alarm sounded through the air and Ark quietly ran into the field of stone. Ark stopped in her tracks when she felt watched, and before she could react she was pinned down. "Well, hello" Ken said. Ark just struggled glaring at Ken and with that Ark kicked Ken off of her and rolled away off of the stone top and fled to the corner of the arena.

[AgentNevada]

@AgentArkansas "You're not making this easier for yourself, running off in plain sight." A grin on her face, "Come on Ark, you're got a close combat so come at me." Ken shrugged. "Square up matie." She said with an incredibly cocky voice.

[AgentArkansas]

@AgentNevada Ark scoffed at Ken's words as she crouched behind a stone, listening to where the the sound of Ken's voice was coming from. Ark tiptoed around the stones, occasionally stopping to confirm her location. Ark was just a few yards away from where Ken was standing looking bored but alert. Ark adjusted her position to where she was facing Ken's back, then Ark's muscles engaged and threw her forward into a sprint and then a leap. Ark was about 1 meter away from tackling Ken to the ground but unfortunately Ken was always ready.

[AgentNevada]

@AgentArkansas Ken smirked, took a step to the side and threw her fist up. Ken felt slightly bad when she heard the snap, really hoping it wasn't her nose that broke. Se knew Ark could take a hit and a broken nose was really nothing compared to the injuries sustained during actual battle but that meant Ken would have to lovely duty of waking up the medic at 2-3am.

[AgentArkansas]

@AgentNevada The only thing she saw was a fist and then felt a huge amount of pain erupted from her jaw as she felt it crack and then it dislocated. Ark tried to land in a roll to safely absorb the fall but to no avail. Ark came crashing to the floor head first and just lay there for a couple seconds, just letting the lingering feeling of her defeat settle. Ark could feel Ken's eyes on her but she didn't care, Ark just carefully pushed herself off the floor and brought her hands up to her jaw to set it back into place. With a few cracking sounds and a grunt of pain, Ark turned around and met Ken's gaze.

[AgentNevada]

@AgentArkansas Ken cracked her neck, "You alright? Sorry about that." Ken felt bad but not.... Too bad. "I should probably grab the medic, wanna make sure that jaw is set properly." She walked over the the weapons load out and grab a bag of ice; usually placed there for light injuries. She tossed it at Ark.

[AgentArkansas]

@AgentNevada Ark caught the bag and set it on her face. "I'll be fine.... I've had worse" she said in the most monotone voice ever in an attempt to mask her frustration. The the voice of F.I.L.L.I.S boomed from the speaker "Point Agent Nevada". Ark looked down annoyed that she'd trained so hard only to get the same result as last time or actually every time. Ark then checked the time, 3:00 am the clock said. "Well I guess I should go and rest" Ark said through the bag over her mouth. "Good job today Ken" Ark said thoughtfully with a hint of resentment in her voice as she punched Ken on the shoulder before exiting the training facility.

[AgentNevada]

@AgentArkansas Ken sighed, "Ah, Thanks F.I.L.L.I.S" the blocks in the arena went down and the program responded, "Of course Agent Nevada, always a pleasure." Ken shook her head and chuckled while leaving the training room. The lights went off and Ken wandered back up to the kitchen; brewing another cup of coffee. As she waited she hopped up onto the counter and swung her legs a bit.

[AgentArkansas]

@AgentNevada Ark walked to her quarters with her head hung low, her mind wiring and replaying the past events. Ark was thinking about what she did wrong and how she could have tried to avoid the inevitable. She opened her door to see that her roommates North and Carolina were still sleeping. "huh, lucky" she thought. Ark then lied in her bed and slowly open and closed her mouth to see if she had set her jaw in correctly. A couple minutes passed and Ark was out like a light.

[AgentNevada]

@AgentArkansas Ken strolled threw the halls, eventually finishing her coffee and heading back to her own quarters. Walking in really quietly, she noticed York was wide awake but Wash was still asleep. She gave York a sleepy grin and climbed into the top bunk, nearly kicking the man in the face. With a light huff she closed her eyes, still feeling bad about Ark.

[AgentArkansas]

@AgentNevada With a jolt Ark woke up, nightmare I guess. She looked at the clock and it was 8:36 am. Ark looked round the room and saw that North was getting ready and Carolina was already gone. With a sigh Ark got up and went to the washroom to brush her teeth and check out her jaw, as well as get dressed in her armor. Ark left before North, she was going to Ken's quarters to what she was doing.
