[i]Natalie took a brief moment to stretch, which was more focused on her lower legs than anything really. She took the weapon from her back and looked at Rose as she got into position. She gauged her flexibility and stamina off of the looks of the woman, noting her strength was enough to easily overpower Nat - She would need to be careful. [/i]

Rose stood for a moment, inhaled, and then brought the metal armor back together again. She had a plan, on that involved disarming or trapping Nat. This new found power would be beyond useful.
-
[i]Nat started off with a burst of energy, as she got into a position much like a sprinter. She lunged her right leg forwards and allowed herself to spend a gravitational blast, sending her body forwards at immense speeds as the staff blade was being brought to Rose's left shoulder, aimed specifically for the joint. [/i]
-
Rose angled herself to make the blade glance off the joint, sticking out her left arm to hang clean Nat. If it worked, she would follow up by pinning the woman, part of her armor locking down Nat's arms into the dirt.
-
[i]Natalie was pinned, although not without hope. She altered the density of the armour that Rose was wearing, forcing it to be temporarily lighter than air. She suspended the woman about ten feet above ground then, making her armour just as light as air while she stood. [/i]
-
The clamps in the dirt kept Nat's arms down, although the left one came loose from the dirt. Rose however shot the rest of the armor at Nat before she got too high into the air. If Nat wanted to play astronauts, might as well let her experience it as well. Rose dropped to the ground, barely landing on her feet as she stood ready to fight again.
-
[i]The armour came crashing down, causing a number of cuts and bruises on Nat, even going so far as to impale her stomach with a smaller plating. She would directly alter the physics of Rose's clothes, making the Gravitic pull string enough to pin her as well to the floor. [/i]
-
She hit the ground with a thud then, letting out a yell as she couldn't directly move. Her arms where still fine, and she transferred her gladius into a rifle, aiming at Nat then, although she wouldn't actually shoot. "Done? You're kinda... Yeah." Impaling Nat wasn't exactly her motives...
-
[i]"Yeah, I'm good." Nat chuckled to herself then, as not only Rose could stand, but the 'Impalement' slid off of her. She had altered the gravity of the weapon in such a way that it collapses on itself, and the jagged metal rim only bit a little ways into her armoured torso. "I should probably head over to the Dojo's hotsprings though, they can heal up these cuts and shit." [/i]
-
"There's hot springs here? How the hell did I not know this..." She mumbled, confused. Standing however, she shifted the weapon back to its gladius, and sheathed it.
-
[i]"Yeah. I'll show you, if you could help me with these clamps?" [/i]
-
Rose chuckled, flicking her hand up with a finger outstretched, the clamp flying up into the air, landing a few feet away.
-
[i]Nat stood up then, holding her wrist as she started to feel blood flow return to it. She grabbed her staff and put it on her back again. "Thanks." [/i]
-
"Yep, nearly forgot about it." She gestured then to lead the way. Rose almost able to feel the hot spring's water...
-
[i]Nat started to walk, leading Rose out of the camp and up to the main Dojo. She went up the hill and through the gates, leading Rose to the hotsprings, which had a few people but not too many this time. "Here we are." [/i]
-
Rose grinned, good, hardly anyone. She was a fan of skinnydipping, but here would stay at the most covered up. As much as she didn't want too. Plus with Nat here, teasing was the first thing on her mind.
-
[i]Nat didn't exactly waste time, putting her staff off to the side as she slipped out of the armour on her body, which was the leather jerkin and pants. It left her in not much but a pair of black pánties and the corset from last time Rose saw her, though she removed it. She did need to heal herself up, after all, and it would be in the way. [/i]
-
Rose's attire was easy to slip out of, easy to get into. Stripping down quickly, she was left in simply pánties, everything kept in a pile near the edge of the pools. Slipping in, she immediately submerged herself, dunking into the water and staying like that for a bit.
-
[i]Nat walked to the water and rolled in, submerged fully under for a moment. She popped up a second later and stayed near the edge of the springs, the wounds on her body healing well. [/i]
-
Rose was still under, the girl capable of holding her breath for a good while. After Nat had settled herself though, Rose floated to the top on her back, grinning. "These springs... How the hell have I never knew of them?"
-
[i]"It's kind of secluded, took me a while to find them. A friend had to show me." [/i]
-
"Well then, eventually I'll show a friend as well then. Damn water feels amazing." She chuckled, floating slowly around the area.
-
[i]"Yeah, just the right temperature. Though I figure my hotness might make it a teensy bit better," Nat said with a snicker, as she started to float as well. Her wounds were now fully healed, since they were so small. [/i]
-
"I mean, floating around stripped nearly bare would do that." Rose giggled then. Glancing at Nat as she admired her for a second.
-
[i]"Yeah, it doesn't help I'm a bit of an exhibitionist either." [/i]
-
Rose laughed again then, falling silent now as she closed her eyes, floating about.
