A brand new group is on the making, The Apostles, a Pillar-like group led by none other than our brand new headmaster, Gregoire Girard. A student body that would lead students and enforce the law on this little school of ours. Little is still known about this student body, but who knows? It might just be what the school needs.

A lunch box is seen last Friday, around 12:37:08pm with an encouraging note packed inside. This appalling display that utterly lacked manliness has left many students stunned and outrage, as some decided, after a long while, to speak out against it.
Full Story Here.

Vivi grunted when his kick connected with her back, and nearly lost her footing. Regaining her balance, she’d turn and face Macht again. This time she’d try to come in closer, at least enough to where he couldn’t kick her as easily. Vivi would throw three consecutive jabs, all at his kidney while attempting to stay in his blind spot. From there, she’d watch for his counter attack and try to stay out of his sight if he turned, before trying to knee him in the side.

Macht would step back and away from all of the jabs as they came, narrowly avoiding all of them as he turned. He watched as the knee shot out, and he blocked it with his right forearm, shooting out his left palm to slam into her collarbone.
"You've got the right idea, which is good. So now take the strengths of your opponent into account. Don't give fast guys any wiggle room, and don't get close to the bigger guys who will grapple you."

Vivi stumbled backwards from the blow, before squaring her stance once more.
“What about guys who are both?” Vivi arched an eye brow quizzically. She swung a few more punches at his blind side, and held up her hands to defend his back-lash.

Macht would catch Vivi's punches and tighten his hands around her fists, bending them backward and applying a small amount of pressure on her wrists. His feet were shoulder length apart, left behind the right, and his stance was solid and firm. He grinned, looking into Vivi's right eye.
"Then you need to find other things to exploit. Habits. Blind spots. Nut shots. Eye pokes. Find a way to stifle the speed, so you can have an advantage, or just hope you're a better grappler than they are."

Vivi nodded, and seemed to smile back a bit, taking note of all the advice. Seeing as this was a sparring match, she couldn’t exactly go for the last two things. His only obvious weakness was the fact that he lacked an eye, and she hadn’t quite picked up on any of his habits yet.
She tugged her arms back and swung her knee at Macht’s hip again, still favoring his blind spot. If he let go and brought up his arms to block it, she would ram her shoulder into his stomach. If he dodged it, she’d simply try to strike him again.

Macht took the knee to his right hip without even flinching. It hurt, but not too much, particularly compared to hits he'd suffered from Knuckles. In response, the redhead simply applied more pressure to Vivi's wrists by pushing his forward, and her's backward. The tension in the wrists and forearms would likely make it harder for her to think or act, but she needed to do better if she wanted to make any progress, and this would hopefully force her to do so.
"You won't succeed if you go with the obvious methods. I have one eye and I can still see through those. Think harder."

Vivi gritted her when he applied more pressure to her wrists. It was becoming increasingly difficult to think. She'd accepted the fact that she couldn't match Macht, but at least he had some good advice. She just wasn't sure how to apply, especially while sparring. She left out more vicious moves in situations like that.
"What're some less obvious methods, though?" she ventured to ask, "I'm not quite sure how to use a quick persons blind spot against them..."
Vivi pulled her arms downward and tried to straighten Macht's arms before aiming to knee his elbow.

Macht's arms would straighten, and the moment he saw the girl's legs move, he would lift her into the air to throw her off balance, but he kept her in the same hold. The only difference now was that she'd be at eye-level with Macht, her feet dangling a foot above the ground.
"Not just their blind spots - use a person's strengths against them. You had the right idea at first, when you attacked my right side, but you weren't persistent. You kept getting in close for too long and letting me grapple you. Trial and error is the way to go - make the mistake one time, and that's enough you gotta try something new each time. Most people won't be as nice as I am. If it were any of the other pillars in my spot, you'd be out cold right now. So use that pretty little head of yours, and think."
Macht would then drop Vivi and take a couple of steps back, once again.

Vivi’s arms throbbed with pain when he lifted her up, but she took note of what he said nonetheless. Landing on the floor, she took a deep breath. It occurred to her she was worried about disappointing him, which seemed strange to her. She didn’t often take other’s opinions in to account.
Vivi aimed a low stamp kick at his right knee, before she jumped back out of range, hopefully before he could grab her again.

Macht bent at the knee so that Vivi would hit his thigh. However, this time, as she backed away, he would give chase. She needed to be given some incentive to start thinking, and he was going to give it to her. It had worked with Lex, there was no way it would be that much different with her.
Without warning, Macht would charge, stomping his left foot down to the ground hard and twisting in that same direction. His right foot rocketed around in a mean roundhouse aimed at her left bicep. If it connected, the force would be enough to take her off her feet and probably floor her. She would definitely be feeling that blow for a while, but going easy didn't help people learn.

Vivi lifted her arms to block her face and neck, and kick connected and Vivi let out a grunt as she was knocked off of her feet by the force. Her back slammed onto the floor, forcing the air out of her lungs. Vivi scrunched up her face in pain for a moment, but kipped up to her feet, swaying forward by accident. Vivi quickly righted herself, however, and resisted the urge to rub the arms her struck. She needed to be strong.
Vivi brushed her hair out of her face and smiled, even though she was mentally kicking herself for doing so terribly. Acting like a butt-hurt kid wouldn't be doing anyone a favor.
"I think we can call it good for today," she said, "Thanks for the pointers, Macht."

Macht was half expecting, and hoping, Vivi would be able to dodge the kick. She didn't, however, and it floored her, as he was intending, but it still wasn't what he wanted. It was evidently too much for her, considering she almost stumbled forward, and now she was done... The German let out a small chuckle and put a hand on the girl's shoulder.
"I was hoping you'd dodge," he began. "That was a heavy one. Lemme take you to the the nurse so we can keep that from swelling up."
He didn't sound nearly as flirty as he did during their first encounter. Rather, he sounded concerned, and genuine.

Vivi's gaze fell to the floor when he said he'd hoped she'd dodge. Maybe she'd be able to once she was quicker, but for now Macht was leagues faster. She glanced up at him when he put a hand on her shoulder.
Part of her wanted to brush him off and tell him it didn't hurt but that was a bald-faced lie, to say the least. Plus, she was getting a completely different vibe from when they'd met the first time... it was hard to tell which was the real him at this point, but she wanted to believe this was.
"I'll... do better next time," she sighed, "It's not that bad, I don't think it'll swell."
There was an awkward pause.
"...Okay, it probably will."

Macht smiled, and would act as the girl's crutch, assuming she wouldn't want him carrying her down to the nurse's office. Pulling her left arm around his waist, his right arm would tuck in against her right ribcage, and he would get going.
"We'll get you taken care of, first," he smiled. It was to Vivi, but he just kept looking straight ahead. "Then when you're okay, and you've got more time, I'd like to help you out more. People here can be dicks, and it would weigh on my conscience if you got messed up by someone and I could have prevented it. Sound good?"

Vivi appreciated Macht supporting her as they made their way to the nurses office, though she couldn't help but wish she had done better. If she had managed to dodge the kick, she wouldn't be needing to go the the nurse's office in the first place.
When she considered what he said, her thoughts drifted back to the past week when Knuckle's decided to floor her for no apparent reason, and then Lexington sent her to the emergency room. That sucked, to say the very least.
"You want to train me, then?" she asked, mentally getting used to the idea. Yeah, that'd probably be best... And if anyone was going to teach her, it might as well be someone who knows clearly knows their stuff, like Macht. But being honest with herself, she wasn't used to admitting she needed help, especially after spending the last six years of her life with pretty much no guidance.
"Sounds like a plan," Vivi smiled, "I'm game if it doesn't mess with your schedule and pillar duty stuff."
