Rezai blocked the sword with her staff, sending a foot swinging at Malice's stomach.


"Aright."Toram said. "Introduce me to what?"Abelith asked having not been paying attention.

She dodged the foot, taking the chance to shoot out her own leg at Rezai's kneecap in hopes of incapacitating her.

"To the 22nd century." He pushed a a-controller over to her, gesturing for her to pick it up. "This game's pretty simple. Use the left pad to move, right one to move the camera, cross to jump, and sphere to attack."

Rezai blocked Malice's kick with her staff, before hopping back.


Abelith looked at the controller confused. "What's a pad?"She asked inspecting the controller.

"You'll have to make a move sometime, Froggy," taunted Malice.

"It's this stick right here." Sparks patted the controller pad. "Simple stuff. We're gonna have to educate you on this stuff. I'm sure Roram could help you with computers."

"It's Toram!"Toram corrected.

"Oh trust me, I intend to, kitty-cat."Rezai said, waiting for Malice to move.

Taking a step over to the sack, she opened it with one hand and drew a buckler-- a small riot shield that covered her forearm. "Tell me, are you carnivorous? Those that thrive on vegetarian diets tend to be more... Fragile."

"Sorry. Meant that. Anyway..." He then started to show Abby how to play.

"If you count insects as meat, then yes."Rezai said. This was getting interesting, though she still would stick to her plan of dodge and evade until Malice had tired herself out.


Abelith listened, seeming completely lost.

Malice began a combination of sword attacks, speaking between swings. "I see. Gross stuff, that is-- suppose you didn't-- choose the lifestyle though. Suppose I'm not one to talk though-- I've eaten rats before."

Sparks sighed, hopping onto her hand and manipulating her fingers. "Use this button to move towards the bad guys and this button to kill the bad guys. Wouldn't want to leave any rebels behind."

"Disgusting little creatures aren't they?"Rezai asked, having eaten rats before as well. She blocked or evaded many of Malice's swings, not bothering to try and get a hit in herself.


"Uhm.... okay?"Abelith said.d She did as Sparks explained and wound up walking into a room of enemies, while not realizing they were enemies. "How come my health's going down?"She asked, looking down at her controller, having not noticed she was being shot at.

Malice smirked. "Depends on how well groomed they are. Our roommate, for example, has excellent taste in organic shampoo. Give him a lick sometime. Like vanilla and mint." She was had exceptional stamina and experience, and began to beat down on Rezai with a series of swift blows.

"Whoa, whoa!" He pushed on the control pad with a push of tiny mouse might, directing her out of the room. "Geez... Maybe I should've put this on easy to start." He clicked a button to use a health potion. "Try taking a few out quietly."

Rezai tried to block and dodge as many of the blows as she could. Eventually she leapt over Malice, balancing on the Tiger's head. She was surprisingly light, even for a being as large as she was.


"How do I do that? Do I just go in and not say anything?"Abelith asked.

She pulled her shield arm overhead to knock Rezai off and to block any blows that Rezai threw. "Where did you learn all of this, anyway? I know you're a frog, but you're no newbie to this."

"Yeah. Approach their backs and press sphere to perform a stealth takedown. Take out the archers first. They'll get you with their arrows." This was like teaching his mom to play games. "And be mindful of your health!"

Rezai leapt off of Malice's head, landing on the shield. "Parents taught me. They were raised by one in a long line of ninjas, trained me to be one aswell, though I don't find much use for being a ninja."Rezai said, leaping off of the shield.


Abelith tried her best to stealthily take out the arch-what she thought were the archers. However she was killed by the archers, having mistaken one of the regular enemies to be an archer.

"Well, if I were trained to be a ninja, I'd love to utilize my abilities... For my own goals, of course." She threw a blunt jab at her opponent.

"Glad you hit a checkpoint... Are you enjoying this at all?" He directed her back to where she was. "Think of this as a strategy game. Map everything out. Think of who you should take out first."

"Uh, no I'm not particularly enjoying this. I'm still rather confused as to why you're having me play this."Abelith said



"mm. Not much I would want to use them for."Rezai said. She avoided the jab, and used Malice's momentum to get the tiger off balance, before sending a kick at her back.

He shrugged. "I suppose to see how well you could do it, is all. You don't have to continue."

Malice scowled after being pushed away. "Would you stop with the acrobatics already? I want to see you throw a strike!" Her muscles were bunched up and her breathing was steady, only slightly winded. She opened her arms in a beckoning gesture. "You've got some killer speed. Use it. I'd like to test my blocking." She held her shield out in a defensive position.

Rezai glanced at the shield. She spun her staff around, launching a flurry of blows at the tiger.

With out a word Abelith dropped the controller into Toram's lap, quickly grabbing her book and reading through it again.

Malice caught the blows with both shield and sword, being pushed back a foot or two, but strafing around Rezai to counteract the lost distance. "Very good." She retaliated with a series of blows of her own, aiming to catach her off guard.

Sparks frowned, wanting to learn more about this curious batmorph. He climbed up a nearby ladder and jumped onto her shoulder, peeking at the book. "Whatcha reading? Sci-fi, history?"

Rezai blocked the sword blows with her staff, managing to thwack the tiger on the head, but in doing so opened herself up to one of Malice's sword blows, getting zapped.


"Speculative fiction. It's a book written by Groliph the All-Seer, a rather old philosopher. The book itself is about hwo my kidn would've evolved, civilization wise, had we found a great technology in its early stages."Abelith explained.

Malice withstood the bit well, but was a little concerned about Rezai. "Looks like we tied. Are you all right?" She took her helmet off and set it down.

"Ah, I see. What is your civilization like?"
