Training
One of the good things about being a YJLA reservist was that Hope got access to all of their training facilities. While the at-home gym that she had at her house was nicely equipped, Hope enjoyed taking advantage of the training simulators and if she could find one, having a sparring partner. Rex was always fun to spar with, but a change of pace never hurt.

Hope was dressed in a simplified version of her armor that she normally wore when she was training, as this one allowed her to move more freely, and her head wasn't covered.

Currently, she was running a training simulator, enjoying smashing some robots with both her fists and her Mega Rod.

Begin quick on her feet was never a problem for Svalin. Sparring matches with Halbjorn had taught her to move quickly. Svalin moved to the right and the blow landed on her left arm.

It /hurt/ and Svalin winced.

Hope had to have possess great strength.

Svalin was going to have to use similar tactics that she employed when fighting her brother. She went low and went for a leg sweep.

	The leg sweep connected, and Hope went flying backward, landing on her back. She hit her head, /hard/, getting the wind temporarily knocked out of her. She regained her senses, getting to her feet. She charged back at Svalin and threw a punch at her jaw. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Svalin twisted to move out of the way of the punch, but it clipped her jaw. There was a lot of pain and unknown to the Asgardian there was a small fracture in her jaw bone. Svalin was thrown off her feet and went down to the floor.

As soon as she was down, she rolled over twice to avoid any more blows and jumped back up to her feet. Despite the hit she was smiling. A worthy opponent indeed.

Hope was actually working up a sweat from her fight with Svalin. Though Rex was a good opponent, she couldn't let herself get loose with him, as she didn't want to hurt him too badly when they sparred.

But Svalin, it seemed, could take out all the hits that Hope doled out and still throw her own blows back.

Hope was also smiling, and cocked her fingers back in a "bring it" gesture to Svalin.

	Now that she knew what her opponent could take and do, Svalin could take the offensive. She brought her hands up and approached Hope. A feint to the right and she came around with a left hook. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	smallwonder 2011-01-12 08:50 pm UTC (link)
	The feint caught Hope off guard, and Svalin's left hook connected with Hope's jaw, her head snapped back, and Hope heard a crack in her jaw, and she wiped some blood off of her lips. Hope moved in close to throw a kick at Svalin's stomach. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Svalin hadn't expected the kick and the foot connected with her stomach. She doubled over from the kick and the breath left her in a whoosh. While she was doubled over, she threw a quick jab at Hope's stomach. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The jab connected with Hope's stomach, and Hope doubled over, the wind getting knocked out of her once again. She brought up her arm to the side of Svalin's head. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Svalin managed to get her arm up and Hope's arm connected with Svalin's forearm. With her other hand Svalin grabbed the back of Hope's head and tried to hold it there while Svalin brought a knee up. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Hope's head was grabbed, and the knee connected with her stomach, and Hope doubled-over. She was in pain, but she could still fight. There were bruises beginning to form all over her body, and she was bleeding in several places. But she was having fun. Hope struggled to get her head free, catching her breath before attempting to headbutt Svalin in the stomach. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2011-01-12 09:10 pm UTC (link)
	Hope's head connected and Svalin took a few steps backward. Her side hurt and she figured that a rib or two had been broken or cracked. She took a deep breath to steady herself. Her side protested, but she pushed it back. "Thou'rt a worthy opponent," she said. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	smallwonder 2011-01-12 09:30 pm UTC (link)
	Hope took a moment to steady herself as well, her side hurting from a couple of ribs that had been cracked by Svalin's knee. She shoved her jaw back into place. It hurt to move it, but she could still manage to open it enough to speak. "As are you," she said. "I am truly enjoying myself." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2011-01-12 09:31 pm UTC (link)
	"Aye, as art I. Thou okay to continue?" she asked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Hope fell back into a fighting stance. "I am if you are." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2011-01-12 09:36 pm UTC (link)
	"Aye, I art," she said and went back into a fighting stance. She cautiously moved forward toward Hope. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Svalin was stopped in her tracks and for a two moment the two women stood pushing against each other. Svalin shifted and allowed Hope to fall forward and Svalin got under her and tried to flip Hope over Svalin's shoulder. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Hope was flipped over Svalin's shoulder, landing flat on her stomach, her nose cracking. She wiped the blood that began pouring out of it away and flipped around quickly, trying to sweep Svalin's legs out from under her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Svalin's legs were grabbed and she wobbled for a moment before falling forward. She landed on her stomach and then kicked back with a foot, aiming for Hope's face. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Hope managed to catch Svalin's foot just at it avoided hitting her face. She took the foot and pushed forward, trying to flip Svalin over. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Svalin was pushed forward along the floor and rolled as she was. She jerked her foot to get Hope's hands off of her foot. She scrambled to her feet. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	smallwonder 2011-01-12 10:16 pm UTC (link)
	Hope jumped to her feet, charging at Svalin with arm in front of her, to try and grab the other girl so that she could throw her into the wall. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2011-01-12 10:21 pm UTC (link)
	Svalin waited and caught Hope for a second before being lifted off her feet and slammed into a wall. There was a nice big Svalin shaped dent in the wall when she pulled herself out. Her sides hurt and she knew that more ribs had to be broken. Svalin smiled and cautiously moved toward Hope. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
