"Please, mom?!"
Panta looked up at her mother with pleading eyes. Asteri closed hers and sighs, a small amount of red mist began to come out of the side of her closed eyes. With reluctance in her voice Asteri answered.
"Irina, you may teach my daughter."
"YES!"
Panta hopped up and down before she hugged her mother and nuzzled her. The little girl was ecstatic and it showed through her wide smile.
"Yes! Yes!"
English
-
"Thank you." [i]Irina smiled proudly, bowing deeply towards Asteri. She rose up, clasping he hands together as she thought upon the action she had taken:[/i] [i]It would be a long process. But she would train this girl. [/i]
-
[i]Panta released her mother and now leaped over at Irina to tightly hug and nuzzle her. Arista sighed again as the mist sunk down and formed a small ring around her feet.[/i] "If Panta shows a single sign of aggression or lust for power the training instantly stops."
-
"Understood." [i]That was all that Irina said to Asteri, as she merely hugged Pan with a smile. As Asteri disappeared, she looked down at Panta, her cybernetic hands lightly grasping her shoulders.[/i] "Listen. We'll have to start off with the boring stuff first, alright? We'll have to begin with exercise. Get your body into shape."
-
"Whatever you say, Irina! I'll do as you tell me! I'll be the best student ever!" Panta continued to hug Irina with a smile. Asteri vanished. "What kind of exercises? I know I'm not the strongest..."
-
"To build up athleticism and strength, we'll have to get you to work out a bit. Least to where you can lift a short sword and begin to learn how to swing properly. So that means that I'll have to set you up some running tracks, maybe weightlifting, maybe even a specific diet. This is something that you have to be dedicated to." [i]Irina calmly explained, trying to speak to Panta in a somewhat serious tone. It would either end in success, or Pan or Asteri (maybe Irina, even) asking the training to stop.[/i]

Edited by Stitch: 4/25/2017 5:45:10 PM"I'll do whatever you say, Irina! I'll be the bestest student in the whole world! I'll work really really hard!" [i]The girl's excitement knew no limits.[/i] "I can't wait!
-
"That's reassuring, kiddo. C'mon." [i]And so, Irina stood up and began leading Panta to the training grounds - specifically, to Courtyard A2.[/i]
-
"Okay!" Panta followed closely behind, smiling widely.
-
[i]Soon, Panta and Irina found themselves in the courtyard, as Irina turned to face the teenager.[/i] "Alright, first things first. We need to decide on what type of weapon you'll be utilizing. We won't be starting this off with the weapon itself, but instead, build up your suitable strength for said weapon. I'm thinking that you'd be a short sword type of gal, to be honest...maybe a dagger."
-
Panta's scrawny arms, legs, and body seem to agree with Irina. Panta shrugs. "Okay. I don't know anything about weapons so I guess I'll go with what you decide."
-
"Alright, first things first. We need to set up a schedule for you to work out, probably for every day of the week. You'll be jogging. And doing push-ups. And jumping jacks. And maybe lifting weights. Understood?"
-
"Yes, ma'am!" Panta playfully replies, saluting and giggling.
-
"Saluting? I like it." [i]Irina giggled, before turning serious.[/i] "Now, let's get to jogging. You start."
-
"Uhh....okay." Panta lightly jogs forward, unsure of where to go. "Where am I going?"
-
[i]Irina followed with her own jog, lightly attempting to push Panta - not in a tripping manner, but in an encouraging one.[/i] "Let's just head out of the Dojo and into Dojoville, or whatever remains of it. You lead the way, so...do what you want, but actually put some effort into it.."
-
"Uhh....Okay?" Panta sounded a bit confused, but led the way regardless. By the time they got to Dojoville she was out of breath and panting.
-
Edited by Orn: 4/28/2017 10:13:01 PM[i]Meanwhile, Irina hadn't broken a sweat as she jogged next to Panta, but it was reasonable considering that she had cybernetic body parts.[/i] "Pan, you're...already tired?" [i]Irina murmured, confused by Panta's...condition.[/i]
-
"Wha-You're not?!" Panta shakes her head. "I-I can keep going!"
-
"Then keep going! It won't be this easy, now!" [i]Irina's voice raised, although she was being more encouraging thang anything. She had continued to jog beside Panta, although she was ready to catch the little girl at any time.[/i]
-
Panta kept running, obviously already tired. She kept up her running for a few more minutes before stumbling from exhaustion, but she just got back up and tried to keep going.
-
[i]Irina caught the girl as she fell, still jogging beside her and saying quite encouraging things. After a couple of minutes, she stopped Pan, placing her hand upon Pan's shoulder.[/i] "You're good. Really. But we'll have to get used to this."
-
Panta started to tip over and wrapped her arms around Irina to stop herself from collapsing completely. "Y-Yeah?" She breathed heavily, her vision spun, and her legs feet numb. Her non-existent athleticism was obvious.
-
"Hey, it's fine... I probably should've brought you a water bottle, but.." [i]Irina then lifted up Panta - she couldn't really help herself, the girl looked like she'd pass out at any moment, and...well, she was nicer than beforehand.[/i] "It's fine. Wanna head back?"
-
"I....can....keep....going...." She said between breaths. The poor girl couldn't go any further, but she sounded like she would try to anyway.
-
"...At least you're confident in your ability. It's fine, Pan. It's your first try at running, you'll get use to it." [i]Irina chuckled a little to herself, as she carried the girl up to the Dojo. About fifteen minutes later, and they were in Courtyard A1 again, sitting against a bench and resting.[/i] "So. I hope you're ready to continue tomorrow? I'll...try to take it a bit slower. Sorry, just...didn't know that you couldn't run that far. Still, it's impressive."
