OOC: Nice post.
BIC: Terg marched down to the grassy sparring grounds. He nodded to several fellow fort inhabitants. He halted by the edge of the sparring grounds. He drew his sword and dirk and layed them down on the grass that was still slightly wet with dew. Pawing through the rack of beaten wooden sparring weapons the sea otter selected a long broadsword and dirk like his own. He fingered the wooden blade. It was splintering slightly. Sighing Terg rembered how he had helped to craft some of these weapons. They where used so much they didn't often last long. He would have to make some more soon.
Twirling the broadsword, which was considerably lighter than his real one, he stepped onto the grounds and watched Fishrudder fight his young apprentice. He also spotted the small form of Tyson battleing a warrior squirrel. He suddenly recognized Arrowbrush. He had met Arrowbrush in the past several time. He wondered how long she had been at the fort...

OOC: Thanks ;-) I was paticularly bored, while doing homework, of course IC: It was at that time, Fishrudder realized Tyson was busy fighting, he chuckled at himself and then turned to Terg. He called across the grounds. "Terg, come here, I've got someone for you to fight. Unless you would like to fight me, of course." He grinned at motioned at Rex, who nodded at this new otter

OOC: hope you two don't mind me butting in? BIC: **Azrah had wandered around the fort for hours, utterly bored, it seemed as if no-one was about. At least it did until she spotted "her o'l messmate" Terg, at her "o'l cap'n" Fishy.** How are you lot doing?** she called out cheerfully, glad of someone to talk to. **Been busy with new recruits?** She asked, since she hadn't seen them in a while (not since she got back from her last journey, that is), and was very happy to see them. She noticed Tyson and Rex, but thought them no more than simple recruits.**

Terg waved cheerily to the white otter and called "'Ello mate! We where just abot to start sparring." Terg nodded to Rex. "This here mouse was trying to get the best of FIshrudder." Terg chuckled and raised his sword, dropping into a fighting stance. "Perhaps I'll be a bit more succesful." The big otter had his weight evenly distributed between his paws. He knew for someone as large as he, it was vitally important to stay balenced.

Fishrudder chuckled, his first sword was hanging lightly in his hand. He reached casually over his back for his second sword, his hand clasped over the hilt, with a quick tug it was free. Fishrudder burst into action, his blades a spinning scythe, the twin blades moved, leaving seemingly silver trails behind. They were rotating, he broke the rotation and swept downwards in a powerful motion, aiming for Terg's legs. He continued the motion into a singular spin and slashed with the other blade at his chest.
Rex watched as his commander attacked the other otter. He carefully stepped around the battlegrounds and headed over to the apparently known white otter. He nodded to her and held out his hand "I'm Rex, who are you?"

**Azrah smiled at Rex, trying to be encouraging, because if he was a new recruit he was in for a tough year, and shook his paw,** pleased to meet you, I'm Azrah, I'm originally from the far north, thats what gives me the white pelt, but I've been here about five years now, off and on, you? ** While waiting for his reply, she watched Terg and Fishy spar, they were both fighting exceptionally well and she called out with a laugh,** winner gets to try and take on me!

The mouse nodded and then added "I'm also Fishrudder's apprentice, he decided to take me on, honestly, I don't know why" His sentence faded off into oblivion as he watched the two large otters fight

Terg jumped over the whirling blades and rolled away. He was panting lightly. he had been caught off gaurd and alsmost defeated in the first minute. Leaping back to his feat the big otter apraoched Fishrudder carfully avioding the silver blades. Dropping low he swung at Fish rudders feet, spun and slashed at his head. Drawing the wooden dirk he had chosen he faced Fishrudder double bladed. HE was thankful that the wooden weapons he had chosen where much lighter than real ones but they woulsn't be able to take a dirrect hit from Fishrudder's own blade.

**Azrah's eyes twitched slightly at Rex's words, but let no other emotion show. Slowly, she studied him in detail, he was well built compared to most dunderhead recruits, and he wasn't lopsided either, like some swords beasts could be. Finally, breaking her silence, she murmured softly, ** Fishrudder was an excellent captain, and is an excellent commander, we can only hope that you, as his apprentice can manage to stay upright beneath his overly large shadow. None the less, you should be proud, neither Finnerator, Fishrudder presider, nor Fishrudder, have ever had an apprentice before.

Fishrudder saw the wooden weapons and pulled up from his attack. He sheathed the twin blades on his back and said to Terg "Do you want real weapons? I hadn't realized you had wooden blades." He watched Terg intently as Azrah and Rex conversed.
[maroon]Rex shifted uncomfortably, he was OK socially, but, still not totally comfortable. The muscles twitched under his grey fur. He realized he shouldn't have said anything, now it was uncomfortable, his mind raced to fix his error. He shifted his weight back to how it was and said "Well, I guess not his apprentice, I am learning the art of war from him. But that it, would you like to spar?"[/maroon]

Rocky walked up to Fishrudder, grinning, while Meko followed in his wake. "Care for a duel?" Rocky asked, grinning like an eager young child. "I'm itchin' for a fight, mate. You up for it?"
Meko smirked. "Id liketo watch this."

** Azrah sensed his discomfort and replied calmly, trying to reassure him,** of course, metal or wood? OOC; lowliest post ever

Terg lowered his wooden weapons. "Wood might be better just so we don't take each others head off. THe fort needs a good strong leader preferably with a head." The otter nodded to the rack of weapons. "You can choose what you like. I prefer to sapr with wood though, if that's all right with you."

[maroon]Rex glanced at Azrah and said “Well, we probably should go with wood” His sentence faded off, and he headed towards the rack of wooden weapons. He looked around a chose a long slender dagger and a short sword. He walked back and waited for Azrah to come back.[/maroon]
Fishrudder looked at Terg and said “That’s a good idea.” He sheathed the twin long swords and headed to the rack to grab twin wooden long swords. He turned to Rocky after he grabbed the twin weapons and said “Well, I’m sparring Terg, but, if you head to the walls and look for an otter named Aral, he’d be happy to oblige”
OOC: Sorry, I was in a hurry, shoulda done better
