Zxaine walked towards the administration building with a determined glint in her eyes. The recent goings on had proven that she needed to know how to defend herself if she was ever going to be able to stand on her own two feet. But what would work well with the skills she had? It took her a long time to figure out what to do, what style of fighting she should ask for help with. There were so many, but finally, after much trial and error, one style stood out GLARINGLY. Capoeira. A mixture of dance, flips, and combat. She had the flips down and after watching hundreds of clips of fights she felt she could do it if she had help learning. That was why she was here, preparing to meet up with one of the few teachers that didn't scare the DAYLIGHTS out of her. Walking down the hallways she looked at each door, holding a pile of papers and her laptop to her chest. She needed this. For herself. Finally she was in front of the door she needed and her hand lifted to knock. She hoped Ken was in.... otherwise she'd have to go talk to the receptionist and.... frankly that was another person who scared her. She was just.... oh my god. Yeah that about sums it up. Oh. My. God. Still. Ken was one of the combat teachers, surely he'd see her request was good and help her. He was a really nice man after all. And so she knocked twice, just hard enough so that anyone inside would hear. She didn't want to disturb any of the other teachers... remember. Scary. |

"Come in!" Ken's voice would call out from the other side of the door. Zxaine would walk in to quite a sight against the normal concept for an office. Ken was far too laid back to keep the type of space that the other staff had. It was almost more like a living room than anything else. He did own a desk; it was pushed with one side against a wall and it was covered in endless piles of paperwork that he had yet to do. Still, he could use it and it was there for him if he wanted to have meetings. But first and foremost, one would walk in to see two sets of seating; a two seater and an arm chair in a vibrant red colour. That was a fold out for the all too important naps he would take. The walls themselves were a light tanned colour, and the floor boards would match in similar standing. But the walls were covered with various types of artwork that made a person wonder where he got it all. Styles and colours that were associated with every corner of the world. She would walk in to find him sitting on the couch, half lying down and watching a rather large television set that had been placed up on the ending wall. When she would walk him, he would first look at her before sitting up. So this was Zxaine! Well, well well! Ken stood up, reaching for his Aeon for a moment to press in a phone number. He rang it. "Lu-kun! It's Ken. Met Zxaine. Have to say... I'm beaming with pride!" He said, and then hung up. What was that? The phone was gone in an instant, thrown to where he had just been sitting. He turned his attention to her and smiled. "You wanted a meeting with me?" He said, offering her the arm chair nearby. |

"Come in!" And so she would, opening the door and stepping inside. She adjusted her mint and emerald scarf that obviously matched the skirt of the day. She lifted one hand to wave cheerfully at the teacher as she entered. Hazel eyes glanced around the room, it was so different then what she expected. Were all the teacher's offices like this? Somehow.... she doubted it. She took in his choice in interior design and, needless to say, she approved. It was a lovely scheme and the bright red was a lovely accent to the tan. As she looked back to the teacher, half sprawled on the couch. As he looked her over she, surprisingly, didn't feel at all perturbed, as she might have with someone like say... Stein. She flashed him a bright, award winning smile as he sat up. Though she looked momentarily confused as he pulled out his Aeon. "Lu-kun! It's Ken. Met Zxaine. Have to say... I'm beaming with pride!" She blinked and looked at Damion, who was perched on her left shoulder. The cat shrugged. Lu-kun? Oh well, she was sure it wasn't something too important. He turned back to her, the Aeon on the couch where he'd been previously. "You wanted a meeting with me?" "Yes. I did. Thank you for seeing me." She beamed at him before taking the offered seat. She set the pile of papers and her laptop in her lap as Damion hopped to the arm of the chair and meowed at Ken. The cat purred softly, a teacher that didn't look like he was about to rip someone's face off was a nice change. "After some..." she paused for a moment. "Recent problems I've faced... I'm breaking down and admitting that I need to know how to defend myself. I'm sure you know from my file that I'm a pretty decent gymnist... so I did some research." She handed him the small pile of papers, all of it was pictures and small clips of information about Capoeira. "I'm not very good with learning things like this... so I was wondering. Would you help me? I promise... I'll be a very diligent student. I won't waste your time." She watched him carefully, hoping he wouldn't decide it was too much for her. She could use the confidence boost that being able to defend herself would bring. Her eyes watched the teacher with a cute, pleading, help me expression, seriously, how could he say no to that? |

Zxaine took the seat as offered, and started to talk to him about the concept that she had been working on. A way to take her previous skills and work them into a new style of fighting for herself? He took hold of the papers offered, reading a little of the information that she had put together for him to read. The combat teacher had to admit he was impressed; her determination for this project was enough to call him up on it. He wanted to help her, especially since of course he had known the troubles she was in. He placed the papers to the spare seat beside him, looking back the the determined girl with an amused expression on his face. "You're serious about this?" He asked; she had done the research and clearly seemed interested. But he wanted to ask to hear her words. "Tell me why. I mean really. Why this style of fighting?" He asked, knowing he would help her in any way he could if she gave a good enough answer. |

She waited while he looked over what she'd compiled, her expression unwavering. She needed his help, she didn't have the knowledge to do this alone. She admitted that. "You're serious about this?" "Yes. I'm very serious." She responded, determination ringing in her voice. Her fingers pulled into fists then she loosened them. She didn't want to be used anymore, she didn't want to be weak anymore. "Tell me why. I mean really. Why this style of fighting?" His question was expected and she nodded before responding. "I'm at my best, my most focused, when I'm tumbling. The flips just come to me, and this is a style that uses that same concept as a free moving, fluid style. I'm not very strong, so brute strength styles like Ju Jitsu and most MMA won't work for me. I believe this will. I'm sure of it." Her eyes blazed with passion. "This is something I could be truly good at." She watched him carefully. She didn't know if he knew everything that was going on... but since she'd spoken to Amber... since her father's reappearance. The girl was growing as a person, and this was another step towards her growth. Surely. |

Ken knew that the school was all about giving people who wanted them chances, and it was all about taking their preexisting skills and making them work when need be. She said she already had most of the skills needed, so all that he had to do was help her put them together in a nice package. This what one of the things he lived for; giving opportunities to those who actually wanted them. He picked up the files, recompiled them and handed them back over to her. She would need them more than he did, and more paperwork for the man was hardly necessary. "Very well. I'll assist you!" Ken said joyously, after having nothing but a steely expression that she would have the hardest time trying to read. "Give me a little time to compile myself a little information and a plan and I'll meet with you in the Gym." He said. |

"Very well. I'll assist you!" And with that simple statement her face lit up, Damion meowing his approval loudly. The girl tucked the paperwork back in with her laptop before standing and bowing to the teacher. "Thank you so much!" the excitement in the girl's voice was clear, she held her papers and computer to her chest. She beamed up at him, so thankful he was giving her a chance. "Give me a little time to compile myself a little information and a plan and I'll meet with you in the Gym." "Of course. I'll be ready when you are. Thank you again!" she could barely contain herself. This was such a good thing for her, she knew that with Ken's help she'd succeed. There was no way she could fail now! |
