Who wears short shorts? Matrim on this morning apparently. Who wears gray t-shirts? Again the culprit would be the Gallagher kid. In any case this short shorts wearing t-shirt wearing, raw egg drinking... which was a bad idea by the way, tasted horrible.
He left a note for Sara that he wanted to spar with her once more, hopefully without Qi but he didn't care if she used hers. He'd refrain from using his unless his anger got the better of him and caused him to well.... bad things usually happened to her when his Qi got out of control and so he'd do this as publicly as possible.
(Not that it has stopped him before)
It was a park that he left the address too, the park where they had trained before. Matrim with all four of his arms was climbing trees and jumping off of them, training extremely hard and doing physical feats he didn't even realize he could do. He was getting strong.... scary strong.
Now I just gotta wait for her....
Matrim took a break from training to go to a water fountain. As he bent over and took a sip he saw someone looking at him with a disgusted look on their face. He flexed all four arms and yelled out "RAWWWWWWWWWWWWRRRR!" And the guy ran off.
"Hehe.. that was funny."

Sara woke up and pulled herself out of bed. Looking around she noted that the room was empty. Matrim was gone. And from the sounds of it, so were Gale and Shayne. She groggily pulled herself out of the bed and stumbled down the stairs. After puttering around the kitchen for a while, she finally came across Matrim's note.
She read it a few times before she actually clued in. He wanted to spar. Again. At THAT park. =_=" Was he nuts? She sighed sadly, realizing she had nothing better to do and went to get dressed.
Not to long later, she arrived at the park. It was easy enough to find him. He was the only 4 armed man there, and people tended to talk when there was something like that happening. She just followed the whispers.
She came up behind him as he stopped at a fountain. She paused, cocking her hip and crossing her arms, smirking as her eyes ran over his back. What an ass... Wow. Heh, very nice. He paused, turning to someone. She followed his gaze.
"RAWWWWWWWWWWWWRRRR! Hehe.. that was funny."
She laughed out loud, uncrossing her arms and coming towards him. As she passed, she would reach out, giving his ass a slap. "Very nice. The ass I mean. I think you scarred that poor guy for life." She stretched, her plain white t-shirt stretching tightly across her chest. She had chosen shorts, but unlike his, hers weren't so short. Her red mesh fabric short fell to her knees. They were actually guy shorts, but DAMN she looked so cute in them. Her long hair was tied back in a bun to keep it out of her face. "So... A spar eh? Any particular reason? Any rules I should know about?"

"So... A spar eh? Any particular reason? Any rules I should know about?"
"Yeah, if I go all flamy, throw something flammable on me," He said, "That should teach me a lesson. Anyway, no. I'm gonna refrain from using my Qi but I'll probably use my extra set of arms here, you can use your Qi all you want since I've got these four arms and some other parting gifts from Linda. Otherwise, it's just a sparring session. I need to get used to fighting like this. I know wrestling will be my strong suit and I know that I'll be an insane fighter like this, but I still need to find out what my best style is...."
Pretty sure it's wrestling but a striker style would also be preferable with multiple limbs. I could grab onto someones fists and just pound them in the face repeatedly on end and it'd work out pretty well I imagine....
"Also lately I've been getting a bit stronger. Last time I fought Emily we fought long and hard and she took me out. This time it was over in seconds or less before she was unconscious. I don't think she got any weaker, and so I need to adjust to this new strength, not to sound all cocky. Just like I saw how fast you are, you need to adjust to your new speed. Sound fair? So Qi up if you want and let's go."
He backed away from the water fountain, wondering which stance would be best for his arms. So he had all four up, all of them with open fists, both right arms drawn back with his right leg slightly, left hands and foot leading.
Let's do this...

"So Qi up if you want and let's go."
Sara nodded. For the first time, her using qi and him seemed fair. He had four arms, she could use qi. In her eyes that worked. That, and she didn't like getting caught near his flames. At all. Anything that involved him not using qi was good in her eyes. "Sounds good."
Only problem was, getting her qi started wasn't as easy as one might think. It requires a burst. And with nothing around to burst, that left the ground. It was hard, something she had never truly tried before, but hell, now was as good a time as any.
She took in his stance as she dropped into a crouch, knees together and bent as she balanced on the balls of her feet. Her hands were held loosely in front of her, hands clawed. She chewed the inside of her cheek for a moment, unsure of herself.
Better now then later... Let's do this...
She leaned forward and set her path just slightly to his left and burst the ground. The familiar green wind flowed over her skin immediately, and she was pushed forward, forced off the balls of her feet from the burst. It would give her some extra speed and momentum for the first attack.
She was off like a rocket, closing the distance between them. She would move to his left, bringing up her left arm to block anything with her forearm that he might attempt to throw at her with his two left arms. She had chosen the left because it meant he would have to turn to land a real good hit on her. As she passed him she planted her left foot just behind him and pivoted so that she was facing his back. Using the momentum of the turn she brought up her right knee, slamming it at his right side from behind. At the same time, her right fist slammed at the center of his back, just between the shoulder blades.
If everything went to plan she would quickly backpedal away from him as quickly as possible, dropping into a loose boxing stance a few feet behind him and wait for him to make the next move.

She ran past him, bursting the ground.
Heh, smart.
She used her left side to defend....
Again smart...
and as she went for his back he took the hit, trying to judge her strength. Getting hit stung but he dealt with it, kneeling down slightly and then pushing himself upright. He turned towards her to see her in a boxing stance of sorts. He grinned, "My visions cut by the extra arm..... I got more blind spots I guess...."
But I can do this.....
He ran at her, pulling back both right fists, and then launched them. The upper one went for her jaw and the lower one going for her side. She could only block so much after all, and then he would, whether or not the attack was successful, aim an upper cut with both lefts, upper going for chin, lower going for gut. With Matrim's strength he hoped he hit something. Then again she was a pretty fast devil.

"My visions cut by the extra arm..... I got more blind spots I guess...."
Sara nodded, but remained serious about this. She really needed to actually start trying harder against Matrim. It wasn't fair to either of them if she didn't push herself more, but she was really glad she had been able to help him realize he had blind spots. She had actually landed a hit, and helped him at the same time. That was kinda nice actually. Now if she could just keep that up.
He charged her. Realizing there was no point in running from him, which she was sure she could do, she knew she needed to get an attack in. Opportunities would be rare, and she needed to take any and all she could get.
As he neared, she would drop onto her back, using his momentum against him, counting that he wouldn't be able to stop in time, as she raised her legs. He would hit her feet, her feet pushing into his gut. To save herself any damage and to aid herself, her knees would bend with his movement. Her shot in, she would then push off his gut with her feet, rolling back into a somersault and landing crouched on the balls of her feet a few feet in front of him.
Seeing another possible opening, she would decide against her better judgment to take it. Pushing off the balls of her feet, she would come forward, plant her left foot and swing her right leg out for a kick at his side, quickly pulling back and dancing away from him again.

The kick to his gut stopped his attack but didn't quite hurt him too much. It stung a bit but it was to be expected. He watched her move, she was a lot quicker and so he had to be light on his feet. He wouldn't be using Qi on her, no way no how. She came at him with a kick that he blocked with his lower arm at the forearm, leaving that familiar sting against it. She danced away as he stepped in, his upper right fist aiming for her chest, since it was the biggest target. After the punch he would follow through by pushing off of his right foot into a shoulder slam also aimed to hit the chest but follow through in case she had moved back to avoid the punch.
If he hit he'd most likely fall on top of her, assuming she fell. If he missed or she didn't fall he would hit the ground and roll over his right shoulder, and using his left hands he'd in a fluid motion return to a standing position after one roll.

All the attacks hit, including her final kick, which went through without a hitch. She was breathing a lot heavier now, really working up a sweat. Her speed was even a surprise for herself. She amazed with the way she moved, how fast she was. It was a little rough around the edges, but nothing some practice wouldn't help. But she was amazed at herself mostly for the fact that she was landing shots on Matrim. She couldn't remember a time she had since the very first time they had fought.
His movement shocked her back into reality and she backpedaled, the first punch missing her. The second move however, got her good. He pushed off his right foot, shoulder slamming himself into her chest. She was taken off her feet easily and landed hard on her back with him on top. She let out a grunt of pain as the air was knocked from her lungs. A burst would be nice right about now... Soon though.... She could feel it building. Just about...

As he landed on her his left hands came across, grabbing onto her right side, he would then roll right, bringing her along for the ride he would bring her across and slam her straight toward the ground once more in an attempt to put her down, he'd end with his back on the ground. Once this was done he'd try to let go, and throw his momentum upward by kicking out his legs and flipping back onto his feet once more.
He'd be breathing a bit hard after doing this task, and he'd try to go on guard immediately if successful. From here on out he'd be a bit defensive. He didn't know when her bursts came, so he'd try to be on guard for that for awhile. He thought they took a bit longer though.

Before she could even catch her breath (not that she could with the fat ass on her =_=") he had grabbed her left side. As he rolled, she was pulled up and over him, slammed back onto the ground hard on her back. She grunted again, arms wrapping around her torso as she tried to roll away from him.
He did a crazy move, like the one in the movies O= and was on his feet a moment later. She followed suit, though not as gracefully. Stumbling to her feet she faced him, her arms still wrapped around her torso and breathing heavily. She gestured to him, about to tell him off, but as her hand moved, her qi activated. The booming sound filled the area as she burst in all directions. He was close enough to her that it would hit him as strong as her usual qi, but the leaves in the trees around them moved from the force of the burst as it flowed out, hitting them to. She choked out a laugh, having scared herself. "HA! See that!? I learned a new trick!" She let her guard down in her excitement.

"HA! See that!? I learned a new trick!" Sara said as Matrim was burst back a bit, having to take a step back. He looked up at her and smiled. He wasn't going to use his Qi, but he knew what that meant. Her bursting like that meant she was open to attack. Matrim took off rushing toward her, all four arms outstretched with hands ready to grab. He aimed to try and grab her with all four arms, and if successful he'd toss her up into the air, and when she came down he'd throw a punch for whatever part of her midsection faced downward.
At least, that's what he was hoping to do. Most likely she was too fast to take that sort of crap from him.
This is hard, but I need this sort of training....

Sara was staring at her hands and under normal circumstances, would have probably missed Matrim's movements until it was to late. Instead, he came rushing at her with all four arms out. Instinctively, she dropped into a somersault, just to his left, and ending up in a crouch just behind him.
As soon as she came up in the crouch, she planted her left foot and pivoted on it, swinging her right leg around in a sweep at the back of his legs in an attempt to trip him up. If he kept moving though, there was a good chance she would miss him completely. But either way, pulling her leg back in and pushing up so she was standing, she would end up facing him again, arms raised in a loose boxing stance, left leading.
She narrowed her eyes at him. "What? No congratulations?"

"What? No congratulations?"
Sara tripped him up, sending him forward. It was very clumsy trying to somersault with four limbs on your upper body, but still he tried, his four arms pushing him off of the ground at the end of the roll so that he actually went up and came down onto his feet. Once he had he turned to see Sara in a boxing stance. Matrim grinned, returning the stance with one of his own, all four dukes up and ready for punching.
He side stepped in, his lower right would jab straight for her face two times, aiming to hit and then his upper right arm would try to hook her in the left cheek before he would lean to his left and down and attempt to slam both of his left fists into her gut in an uppercut. It was a combo she could have dodged at any time, or stopped at any time. Mostly he'd just stick to that boxing stance.

The trip worked, and as she came up facing him again, she watched, quite pleased, as he attempted a clumsy somersault. Granted, he did it the fancy way again, landing standing, but it was still clumsy. Somehow it made her feel more... adept at fighting to see him have to try. She liked it =3
Her eyes followed him as he sidestepped in. She was focusing on the wrong arms though and nearly took the whole brunt force of the first hit, backing up just in time to only be skinned by the punch. Her hand lifted to her face as she continued to back up. She swore under her breath, but oddly, she was smiling. All this sparring was getting her in a good mood. Being in a park was bringing back memories.
Sara dropped her hand from her face to reveal a small smile on her lips, as she chuckled softly. Taking a few tentative steps towards him, she spoke, her eyes moving over his body. "What do you say we take a little break eh?"

"What do you say we take a little break eh?"
"Certainly," He said lowering his dukes and relaxing a bit, retreating those extra arms in a painful process. Any pain caused to them would be reflected in his sides as he gritted his teeth. The item was weird and he didn't like it very much, mostly because of how awkward it made him feel. It was like fighting with shoes you weren't used to, or a strange outfit. You could do it... and they may make you stronger, but it just... it felt off.
"Did you have anything in mind," He said smiling over at her he'd put his hands to her waist and pull her in, his face hovering over hers as he spoke, holding her against him. He would lean in and plant a gentle kiss on her neck, tenderly nipping at the skin, slowly starting to pull against it a bit, the hands on her waist gripping down a bit.
