FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT! Or Security Training

Posted on Mon Mar 7th, 2016 @ 7:34pm by Lieutenant Daln Hadren & Ensign Alyanna Hernandes & Cadet Senior Grade Jenny Thorne & Staff Warrant Officer Nexi

Mission: Where Angels Fear to Tread
Location: Gymnasium

Daln was waiting in the gymnasium for training with his department. Everyone had to do it, including the new civilian and Jenny, who usually worked with a four-legged fear machine. Bart's teeth were a very effective deterrent against attempted escapes. He was dressed in work out clothes, as they were going to be practicing their fighting. Good hand-to-hand combat was essential for security personnel. He would see exactly how much work he had to do.

Jenny walked in, her hair in its usual braid, only it was down her back instead of over her shoulder. She was feeling nervous without Bart. She had relied on him too much recently, and now she was going to pay for it.

Hernandes entered, ready to take on the biggest guy there and win. She had spent years fighting with her brothers, and she was going to show these boys how to fight.

Franklin didn't mind training, he knew that he needed it, and, from what little he know of his new boss, such an exercise was going to be part of the regime. He walked in ready to do whatever it took.

Daln scowled at the chronometer. Tito was late. Again. "Well, we're going to start without him," he muttered to himself. "Okay, guys!" he yelled. "Pair up! No rules, no holds barred. Just try not to kill each other. Thorne, you're with me. Hernandes, take Gates through the ropes. Show him how it's done. Everyone else, pair off."

Jenny swallowed and nodded. Hernandes took one look at Gates, and smiled. She hoped he knew enough to hold his own.

Jenny squared off against Daln, she threw a jab in his direction, but he dodged. It wasn't a really powerful one, and he knew it. She was getting a feel for him. Daln responded in kind and she dodged, but it managed to connect with her ear.

The door to the gymnasium swished open and Nexi stepped just inside, leaning against the wall to watch the Security officers spar with each other, analyzing strengths and weaknesses in their movements with her arms crossed over her chest. Her eyes, in particular, were focused on Hernandes. Daln had asked for her help in dealing with the Latina/Betazoid woman and Nexi was not one to disappoint...

Franklin looked over at Hernandez expectantly. He was pretty sure he could take whatever the other officer wanted to dish out. he'd at least give her a run for his credits. "Well?" he asked.

Hernandes started towards Gates, her hands up, high enough to guard her face, but low enough to guard her stomach. She tried out a short jab, but Gates dodged it. She did it again, a couple more times with her left hand, but on the second time she lunged out with her right foot and kicked him in the stomach.

Franklin wasn't able to avoid the blow altogether. but he did manage to tense his muscles when the blow came, lessening the effect of the attack. Still it moved him back several feet. He gave her a smile that didn't quite reach his eyes and after he had gathered himself, mirrored her kick or at least feinted the attack, hoping to catch her off guard, he then aimed a left jab towards her solar plexus.

Jenny was a little nervous facing off against Daln, because he'd know everything she was planning. She threw a punch towards his nose, but Daln swung to the side, and pushed her arm out to the side. Oh yeah, he thought to himself. She's out of practice.

Hernandes sidestepped the punch and let it go through, then pulled his arm through, straining the tendons.

Franklin grimaced in pain but he wasn't going to go down easy. He went with the motion, then with his free arm, throw an elbow towards her face.

Jenny tried to kick Daln, but he grabbed her foot and threw her on the ground.

Nexi snorted as she watched the weak display before her. Man, they all needed a swift kick in the ass at this rate. Except Daln, she had something else in mind for that ass... That had her grinning as she watched the two groups duking it out. That Hernandez chick definitely needed to be taken down a peg or two, but for now she wanted to let the fights play out without any interference; after all, it wasn't just Hernandez who needed a lesson here, the other two, Gates and Thorne, needed this workout.

Jenny lashed out with her legs and toppled Daln to the ground. She then got on his shoulders and began punching his face. He brought his legs up and wrapped them around her and pulled her back from him. However, she grabbed onto his neck with her thighs and slammed him between them several times. Daln grunted. She was getting the hang of it....

Hernandes ducked under the elbow, grabbed Gates's knee, and judo flipped him over her back. Stepping on his chest, she said, "You're dead," with a smug smile. "Good workout, though." She offered him a hand.

Franklin just looked up at her and smiled. "Next time he replied."

Nexi laughed opening at the display between Jenny and Daln. Ah, that girl... though if she bloodied up Daln's face, Daln was gonna have to hold Nexi back from breaking Jenny in two. Not that she thought for a second that Daln couldn't handle himself, but she felt a sudden possessive urge in regards to Daln, feeling that it was her right to protect what was hers. So did that mean Daln was hers? Nexi shook her head to dismiss the thought. Meh, way too deep thinking and not nearly enough booze...

Thorne and Daln disengaged and got to their feet, Jenny throwing a punch towards Daln, but he caught it and pulled her hand behind her back before letting her go.

"You've gotten too dependent on Bart, Jen." he said.

"Yeah, I know." Jenny was not happy about it. She knew Bart was a great partner, but she had to be able to handle herself.

"I'll get together with you in a bit to help you..." he trailed off as he saw Nexi. He grinned. "I think this should be entertaining, though. Nexi!" he called.

Nexi pushed off the wall she'd been leaning against and strode over to the combatants, Gates first. Sizing him up she gave Daln a nod. "Competent," she said to Daln, then made her way over to Thorne. "Timid, lacks confidence and practice. Keep her out of the field until she's made improvements," she continued to relay to Daln. thens he finally ended her pacing with Hernandez. "Powerhouse, but overconfident." Oh yeah, this was gonna be fun...

"So tell me, that jock strap you wear, is it empty or did you grow a big set of brass ones to fill it out?" Nexi asked the Latina woman mockingly, though the woman certainly walked around like she had something to prove.

Alyanna glared at the other woman. Alyanna was the best fighter in the Security Dept save the Chief, in her own humble opinion. "Bugger off, Nexi."

"Ooh, did I strike a nerve?" Nexi said with a teasing pout. "Little bit disappointed you weren't born male? Or maybe daddy was disappointed? Certainly explains why you're overcompensating."

Alyanna snarled at the woman. "My father has four sons. He wanted me to be a girl. He was ecstatic when I was born."

"Then why do you walk around like you've got something to prove?" Nexi said with narrowed eyes. Then, without any warning, she struck, throwing a punch at Hernandez's jaw. She had hoped to bait the woman into throwing the first punch, but Nexi didn't have all day to find the right pressure points, but the woman was nice and riled up, more than enough to make her unbalanced and emotional, which was exactly what Nexi wanted.

Hernandez felt her head swing back at the other woman's blow, but then Hernandez got really mad. Alyanna stepped forward and hit her in the chest with all her strength and weight behind it, knocking the breath out of her.

Nexi took the blow and then some, but she wasn't going down, not yet! Hernandez was definitely a skilled fighter, there was no doubt about that, but it was wild and unfocused now that the Latina woman was angered. Nexi opted to play defense in this dance for a while, letting Hernandez wail on her with her powerful fists, even let a few holes in her defense slip to allow Hernandez to get in a few pot shots, but it was all part of her plan to tire out the Security Officer.

just when it looked like Nexi was about to be beaten into submission, she kicked out and swept her opponent's legs, toppling Hernandez to the floor. In the same motion, she drew her pike which was tucked under her jacket at the small of her back. At first it looked like nothing more than a short sword with a slightly long handle, but with a practiced flick of her wrist the handle extended to a full sized staff and then she was leveling the blade at the downed Security Officer.

"Why are you fighting?" Nexi barked out, then lunged at the woman.

Hernandes rolled and then came up onto her knees, trying to get to her feet. "Because I have to! I'm a Security Officer, you leftover trash! I fight because I must!"

Nexi backhanded the Latina woman while she was finding her feet, adding a jolt to the blow to add effect. "I am your enemy, I am here to kill you!" Nexi bellowed as she continued to pursue Hernandez, taking a swipe at the woman with her pike, intentionally missing but just barely. "This isn't a game, you don't fight to win, you fight live! You fight so that the officer next to you can live! That is the life you have chosen, so act like it!"

Hernandes knocked Nexi to the ground again and, standing over her, stomped on her chest. Again. Her face. Tried to stomp her into the ground.

Daln was getting nervous. Nexi, things are getting a little crazy, he said. I think you should allow her to calm down some.

Oh, Nexi would calm her down alright! During a stomp Nexi grabbed Hernandez's foot and held it to her chest. Nexi's hand sparked and she released a jolt through the Latina woman, and didn't stop until Hernandez was on the ground. As soon as Hernandez was down, Nexi let go and pulled herself to her knees, bringing her hand to her nose to straighten it back out, spitting out a mouthful of blood onto the mat. then she was by Hernandez's side, putting her face right next the other woman's. Hernandez was awake, but barely. "Undisciplined, no control whatsoever. And you call me trash..."

Nexi pulled herself to her feet with a groan. Damn, that woman could throw a beat down! Nexi would hate to be on the receiving end of Hernandez's ire once she gained a bit more discipline and focus! Of course, next time, Nexi wouldn't hold back... "I think... a trip to the infirmary... might be in order," Nexi said as she staggered on her feet. But she had the biggest grin on her face. "And I cannot wait to do this again!"

Daln grimaced. This had not gone the way he thought it would. "Okay, people," he said. "We're done for the day."

"No arguments there..." Nexi muttered as she stumbled out to go to Sickbay
