Card troubles

Dante is now facing one of them and today's practice is about speed and precision. His group is all off to the side watching as they size each other up. He has explained it all and now Dusk is ready and as he roars out the pair attack. Dante has his eyes on him but even so he seems like a blur gliding over the ground as he barely has time to evade the attack. So quick and skillful not even the wind blows to give away the attack.

Dante swings out and spins his body down hard trying to catch his back as his tail swats his leg and a paw comes up as Dante crosses his arm taking the hit as he flies back. Rolling in the air he swings out and hits the side of the head about to bite him knocking it away. They both hit and launch back at one another. This continues even after they start to show wounds and blood drips down from both of them.

Xin speaks up after half an hour expires. "Dante time limit is up!" Dante turns and puts a hand on his side as now Dusk stops his attack. The two seem to be laughing as they lean against each other. Both down a vial and walk back to the group as Dusk slows down and stands next to Dante as he faces them. "Dante, could you get clothes on?"

Dante puts an apron on and she tosses her arms up just accepting it. "Okay what key points of the fight did you notice? After that I want you to sit down and think of how you could deal with it had you been in my place. After that think of what items you could bring with you to help bridge the gap. Finally I want you to write up a total review of Dusk's fighting methods and how you can apply them to a person."

Terra raises a hand as he nods to her. "Um, is this how you normally train Dante?" he says until now they couldn't practice like this and had to fight each other or animals while hunting "Alright thank you. However will I be going out with you past the wall or do I train more first?"

Diana comes out in a solid black battle suit. "For now you are more dangerous to the group than a benefit. I will be overseeing your basic training while he will oversee the advanced. Your transfer to their school has been approved but they have pulled out of the combat classes. His team does assist them in the standard class."

Dante smiles and puts a hand on her side leaning over. "I was informed she should be out later today. I have already got a car set aside for you to go pick her up and bring her here if you want." she nods and smiles as he does "Once done with that make sure to visit Johnny for a suit design session so the art class can get started and if she wants to join, do it for both of you."

Erica speaks up as he looks to her. "Dante we haven't settled on what we need for our outing yet. Can you give us more of an idea where we will be?"

Dante nods smiling as he taps his watch and opens up the collective map as he motions towards a dark area. "This area is two days out from the west gate. We will travel to it dealing with whatever comes out way. On this trip I won't use my companions to deal with the wild animals as they are part of this test. However I promise you, I won't just let you die." he looks to everyone as they all silently acknowledge "I will do everything I can to make us better."

Ally sends a message as he blinks seeing it and contacts the person he is instructed too. It comes up as a video and once it turns on he sees a board with a message. Why haven't you tested it yet? Do you want me to kill you? Hurry up! Dante blinks and shakes his head. I don't even know what it is and they want me to test it. Is this person an idiot?

He goes to close it as the board shifts and now he feels they are an idiot. I put this card right here with that box so you know what it does! He can see the card now drifting past the screen and sighs heavily. Now hurry up and test it!

Dante looks now and shakes his head. "How can I read the card you still have plus what does it even relate to so I know if I can test it where I am?" he looks and glares as the board changes again. So you are one of those smartass people huh? Dante is done now as he looks to it. "Tell me what you want or I will give it to a shark to eat and let it dissolve away." He sees a person in a white lab coat throw something at the screen and it goes black. He leaves it there and goes about his day.

Ally looks to her watch and sighs seeing the message. "Dante what did you just do?" She heads over and whispers in Edna's ear as Edna jerks and looks up worried. Ally smiles softly and nods her head. "I have already sent out the required messages and warnings."

Dante is on his way to pick up his meat order and an extra supply of antidotes since by the odds, this meal will require them. He feels the ground shake some and looks around as he sees a mech unit running down the street. He moves off to the side curious but as it turns he barely has time to curse as he is punted by a giant metal foot.

Dante feels a few bones shatter as he flies backwards he sees a few digital screens go past until the sensation of shattering glass erupts around him as he rolls and slides to a stop. He coughs a few times as he downs a vial and looks out the hole as the damned thing is heading his way. He waits then starts to run and as it gets close he flies out of the hole dropkicking it dead in the center of the torso. Rocking backward it takes a step before a fist is chasing Dante down towards the ground.

A whip snaps around the leg as Dante jerks avoiding getting killed as he swings around to hit the ground as he now has an axe out. He quickly swaps to a shield as a blast from the other hand drives him backwards to bounce off of a car. He gets up and glares as this thing is far beyond that damned other robot.

He looks as his watch beeps and taps it. "Dante don't kill the occupant!" he sees Ally looking worried and growls as he spins and buries a sword into the arm before sending it away to avoid the shock "They are important Dante so please?"

Dante drops low and hurls a spear at it as it only goes in about half of the blade. "Why the hell wouldn't I destroy this damn thing it is trashing me and the city?!" Dante dives to the side to avoid the flying car as she shouts out and he looks to the video again "Give me one reason not to go off the rails on this prick?"

She smiles weakly as she looks to him and can see the blood near the corner of his mouth. "They are important to us Dante." he stops for a moment as a foot catches him and he flies backward to her screams "I am so sorry Dante we are trying to get them to stop too!"

Dante skips off the ground and slams off of a truck as he groans and downs another vial. "Ally," she says yes "you need to cuddle with me tonight after forcing me to go easy on this fight!" she says she will do that all night long even if Cora is there as he nods "If I can't destroy it, other methods then."

He comes over the truck he had fallen behind and as the unit turns it sees two massive black cats follow after him. It lifts and readies to blast the three to pieces as the two cats blur past Dante and he spins low and uses a staff to launch his body up to avoid the explosions. Dusk and Twilight latch onto an arm and rip into them. Dante comes down and his staff is now the scythe as he uses his leg to stomp it into the damned thing.

He sends it away and kicks off as he lands on Midnight and she hits the ground as now the other two flank them. Dante puts a hand on her neck and pets softly. "You have yourself a good fight here, we shall rend this metal." Date just says keep the soft one alive as she roars.

Dante jumps again as the three now attack it like a whirlwind of claws and death. He uses a whip to catch one of the damaged arms and swings over to the spear. Holding it he spins up and stands on it as he holds a massive axe and using the spear by hooking a foot under and on top of it he lets his body fall down. He swings with all his strength to rend an opening into the chest of this robot.

He flies away like a rocket from the intense explosive sonic blast that happened as his axe cut into it. He sees far too much open sky as he hits into his big brother's side. Looking down shocked he looks around now and focuses. "You hurt my little sibling!" Dante coughs as he hits the ground but quickly is picked up by Midnight and rejoins the battle.

Dante calls out as he shifts his attack and instead of trying to crush it no matter what it takes. Now he is ripping off one of the legs to get rid of the mobility. Dusk dives in as he is wrenching and starts to rip into it with his claws. Twilight and Midnight are working with Dante as the three are dealing with the shoulder weapons.

Ally looks over as Edna is glued to her holo watching this entire event as she sends another message and gets the same reply. "I want a sucker!" She glares at the message and almost shouts in rage as this was just beyond irrational! Looking up she sighs and prays Dante manages to beat some damned sense into them.

Dante sees an option and calls out as his big brother drops the mangled leg as Dante catches it. His body flexes as he just hit his weight limit plus some but right now, his blood is nearly all adrenaline. His body is running hot like an engine on pure nos. Roaring out he spins and with his brother tossing him with his tail Dante comes down like the hammer of death and slams the leg into the chest. Seeing an opening he shouts out orders as Midnight is there instantly ripping around the whole as the other two join and after a moment they all fade as he stalks forward.
