Gabriel noted the sudden pain in her eyes, he wouldn't let up in fact he'd press to make her harder and not breakable. She wanted to become a tank well then she had to take the blows and build up an immunity to powerful assaults didn't she.
*bang*
He's disappear in another flash appearing behind her with a solid kick to the back extorting all his force into it hopefully knocking her to the floor.

[[OOC: S'okay dearie! XD you had to put up with lame posts from me |D;;;; ]
He wasn't going to help her, but before she was able to move, to go in search of the loo or a vase... He disappeared and with one final attack to the back, he was able to take her down. Addie fell to the ground with a thud, pain shot up her back, and through her face as it hit the ground. She wasn't going to get up that time, down for the count. As usual, Gabriel was the victor of their fight.
Although, she couldn't help but feel a little stronger, even if she was in a great deal of pain. On the ground, the brunette would close her eyes tightly, trying to fight the overwhelming pain. As much as she prided herself on being able to handle any sort of pain, it was slowly becoming too much for her. She was out D: in pain and feeling sick.
AT LEAST SHE TRIED... All too well knowing that Gabriel would win. At leasts he didn't give up.

Gabriel absorbed himself in a now strongly overwhelming calm, focusing those thoughts as his Qi channeled into a single form flowing freely within himself and then dissipating becoming one with the body. Addie had undoubtedly been a strong encounter. In time she'd become what she truly dreamed to be, as strong and as fearful as him even but always to Gabriel she'd be the adorable little sister of sorts.
He smiled at the thought lifting her up into his arms as he walked into his homestead setting her aside to a bed where his on call medical staff could get a look at her and undoubtedly suggest some bed rest and ice packs. And she'd be better the next time around, smarter and stronger than the last. Gabriel sighed, despite having won he was still very proud of her, it took courage to stick with the punches and harms. She was a strong hearted gal.
"Rest now, tomorrow we speak." Gabriel said in a low voice patting her head.

>insert time skip<
There was no telling how long she had been out for, she didn't remember a lot from the night before, like what she had been doing before fighting Gabriel. Brining a hand up to her head, the stinging continued and became a throbbing once she opened her eyes. Blurry became focused as she looked around at an unfamiliar room, not wishing to move anymore. Dropping her arm down to the side, Addie tried to will herself to sit up. It took a great deal of time, but she finally managed to will up the strength to sit up. Pain shot up her back and through her face as she sat up, holding her head in a hand for a moment as she'd look around at the room. She was so not in her apartment anymore, which raised more questions. Did she end up staying the night? The end of it was a blurr, so it had to be what had happened.
Everything hurts....ugghhhhhh....
Turning herself, she'd let her legs dangle over the edge of the bed. Her blue gaze scanned the room as she extended one foot to the ground and then the other. It would only take a moment for her to push off the bed to stand up, only to fall back onto the bed. A head rush, even moving as slow as she had been. Perhaps it had something to do with all the hits to the head she had gotten that day, it was probably it.
Come on Addie...Move! you can sit around all day...
Even just sitting hurt, of course she blamed the blow to the back for that. Whether she sat up straight or hunched over, it hurt. There was no room to complain, Addie needed to move and continue on with her day..Whatever the time be.
I can do this..this is nothing, I've felt worse... Pushing herself up again, Addie would slip and fall, hitting the ground with with a thud. Pain made its way up her back quickly...so much ow. "Owww......"

Gabriel smiled with a curious gesture, as she'd been sleeping he spent most of the night thinking awaiting the moment she'd have woken up once again. Yes Gabriel was quite the insomniac, he'd always had trouble sleeping since the events at the Correctional Facility. Of course being in it he'd suspected he'd have suffered worse at the others hands but something Deta Teyfour had done to him managed to leave it's mark. His hand slowly edging up to the old scar of the beast's bite mark on his upper shoulder. Yea that was never a good feeling becoming a meal. Eyes subtly picked up her strained movements as he watched with a slow and cunning gaze. Patience. Grasping for a cup of tea he poured some letting her try before standing to cross the room.
"Lie down." He'd say in a soft demanding voice setting a hand on her chest to push her back down.
With the other he'd offer her the cup of tea, it'd sooth her nerves and by the end of the day she'd be back on her feet just as bad-assed as anyone who'd ever had to put up with Gabriel. His calm steadfast focus awaited patiently as she would hopefully drink the substance.
"How are you feeling?"

"I'm fine.." Addie mumbled as she winced a little in pain, talking had become troublesome, once again result of the battle. She'd definitely feel a sting while talking for a while. It wasn't until he pushed her back down in the bed, that she looked up at Gabriel, pouting a little. She didn't want to waste the day laying around, she always went by the ideal: Just walk it off, you'll be fine. Apparently it wouldn't be that way with Gabriel, a day of bed rest...sounded lame. Regardless, she'd listen to him, it was his house after all.
Gabriel knows best..
With that he'd offer her some tea, which at that moment in time sounded like something wonderful. She'd smile and nod, sitting up a little in order to take a sip of it. It smelled good and had a good flavour to it, she'd have to ask about it...sometime. It was weird to have someone around when she was hurt, she almost felt like she had a family member in the States. Although, it could just be Gabriel's way of making sure no one died on his land... Addie never really thought something along those lines, it was just a fear. People she held in her heart, they did care; right? Or perhaps it was all one sided.
It didn't matter.
"It feels like I got hit by a transport truck..." She'd chuckle a little, regretting it later, because of back ows. Her blue gaze would fall down to the cup of tea, watching the ripples in the glass that formed when she moved. There was lingering doubt in her mind as she tried to clear her mind of negative things, try as hard as she may, it was difficult to rid herself of such thoughts.
"I'm sorry for troubling you Gabriel..."

Gabriel chuckled with the first sign of a light hearted smile. She had no need to be sorry or afraid of him under these conditions, she approached him bravely with the intent of getting stronger and for that he held Addie with quite a high respect. Though he sensed a bit more trust was above all necessary for a future of the two contacting, thats what this day was prepared for, he wanted to show Addie that she should trust him, with everything she held dear. Even her life.
"No worries at all Addie, I'm the one who put you there remember.."
With that he'd chuckle slightly setting a pillow behind her back so that she could prop herself up. And always there'd be him resembling a calm feature of solitude. He'd not chime in just yet seeing as how she looked deep in thought or perhaps even stuck in a motive of changing herself but he'd motion his next words with short caution.
"You handled yourself well the other day, I'm quite impressed for someone of your power level." Gabriel said with truth in his heart, "nearly gave me a run for my money."
And he had a lot of money.

"I guess." Addie smiled a little at the dark haired young man, before taking another sip of tea. He'd move a pillow behind her, how nice. Leaning back against it, she'd stare down at the tea once again, feeling a little out of place. it was weird to have someone be so nice to her in such a state....weird but none the less nice. She couldn't get over it. Her hair was down and covering her eyes as she looked down.
Listening to Gabriel's words, she began to feel a little more at ease. Perhaps she had guessed wrong, cutie was still cutie after all. It had been a long time since she had last called him that, it didn't seem to fit him anymore. Perhaps it was his death and return from the dead. He had told her secrecy was a must, which is why he told no one; to her knowledge. But, the girl wouldn't help but feel a little unhappy about it. For the short time between finding out he was gone, and finding him again... She had missed him. Well, it was Addie, she missed everyone that appeared in her life. Even if it was only for a short time, they grew on her.
She grew quite fond of certain people fast, which she'd place blame in her old anti social tendencies. Looking up, the girl would laugh a little, ignoring the throbbing in her head and back. "I think you went easy on me, ha h ah ha. But I'll forgive you this one time. Next time I'll last longer." Addie spoke to him in a friendly tone, and her eyes burned with confidence as she thought about it.
With time she'd get stronger.
Even though the same thing applied to Gabriel, she'd be in his shadow; but she'd fight on. She'd smile while looking up at Gabriel. Arching her eyebrows quickly, Addie would give him a serious look. "You aren't allowed to get any stronger! I won't be able to catch up if you do!" Addie said in a jokingly tone... Meaning it partially. Even if he grew stronger, she'd chase after in order to become stronger. No matter what. She'd follow the comment up with more laughter, even at that point she didn't know what she was laughing at. Probably just at her comment. Taking another sip of tea, her gaze would return to it.
"If I may do so as ask....what kind of tea is this? It's soo yummy!"

Gabriel laughed at her comments of going easy on her. Of course he had done so in giving her his items. But of course he didn't lie about anything he'd said, she was improving and he could tell from the last time he'd fought her in that elevator. Of course she'd never get to realize that was him, it was best he kept every notion of his past a secret for the sake of the future, the one he'd planned out for everyone. Quite a few tips and turns but regardless it was still worthwhile.
"I can't promise you that, but I'll make sure next time we fight, you'll be far stronger." Gabriel smiled with a wink showing her it was okay to not always be the strongest, it was quite lonely at the top.
"Raspberry, grown outside in the gardens..." Gabriel smiled noting the tea's very special flavor, of course what was added where quite a few extra ingredients namely those that would create a resurgence of old strength.

Gabriel was acting adorable, it was nice to see him back being the Gabie she had met in the hospital. She'd smile at him, "You'll win then too, I know you will. ha ha ha. It's you Gabriel." She spoke with a smile, even if she was predicting her own fail. It was funny to think about it, since she had never really seen him lose. "Although, that's not going to stop me from trying." She'd smile again, determination burned in her eyes as she looked at her friend.
Bright blue scanned the room, wondering what time it was and how long she had been out.. It was a nice room, it was in Gabriel's home after all, what wasn't there to be nice about it? Sipping the tea, the brunette listened to Gabriel tell her the origin of his tea.
From the garden!
"Oh! It's such wonderful tea. A nice flavour, ha ha ha. It's been a while since I've had tea that wasn't green tea. Although, you never struck me as a tea maker. ha ha ha"
She was feeling slightly better, but she was too cozy in the bed to want to move. Perhaps a day of chilling wouldn't be too bad, after all she was feeling slightly less ow. Though she wasn't sure how long Gabriel would want her company. As she took another sip of the tea, there would be a growling from her stomach, she hadn't eaten since midnight, the night before the last. .___.;;;;;;
Shhhaaadaaapppppp tummy..... .___.;;;

Gabriel laughed at all she'd said, it was unfortunate that he didn't spend more time with Addie as a friend as opposed to a trainer they could have really hit things off well. A small nod as he confirmed that she could do excellent as a warrior in time. As for her other comment he snickered a bit.
"Well that'd be more of Villetta's doing... she tends the garden's better than I do."
Gabriel smiled noting her hungry belly.
"Would you like to get a bite to eat? I'm rather famished myself?"

It was embarrassing, after all it had sounded like a ravenous creature. Perhaps she'd best get more time at work, it would probably help a little. Addie smiled at Gabriel as he told her more about the tea, it was reassuring knowing that it wasn't he who made the tea; it really didn't fit his character. Although she got a peculiar mental image of Gabie cooking, which was humorous. Rich people didn't need to know how to cook, perhaps he was one of them; she had made the assumption he was. It was far more amusing. "I thought as much, sorry Gabriel. You just don't fit the tea maker image." She laugh a little, hoping that she hadn't insulted him in any way. It was only the truth after all, well in her opinion at least. There was the offer of food. Eyes lighting up like a kid in a candy factory, her smile grew in size, showing her white teeth. "That sounds wonderful Gabriel!"The brunette was smiling, she was regretting it, throbbing in the jaw zone. Shrinking in size, her expression became small again; not wishing to be bothered with the bothersome hurting anymore. A hungry tummy forces the mind to wander. She went from pain to wondering what he had in mind, what did he eat. Was what he ate any different from what she did? Would it be good? Would he cook it? Would she have to move? There was a part of her that wished to stay in bed, but for the most she wished to escape the bed and just go with her: 'just walk it off'. As she sat there looking at Gabriel, there was only one thing she could think of: NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM NOM..... |

Gabriel chuckled a bit feeling like a parent of a very childish individual of course that was to expected with Addie seeing as he had put her in tis scenario. What goes around comes around as they say, regardless Gabriel didn't regret it she seemed like a fun individual and wished he could get to know her better as a friend rather than have to spend so little time between his followers.
"Yea, tea's not my better skill sets I always tend to make it too salty or sweet, though I can cook a few fine meals. Have anything in mind? It'd be my pleasure to serve you up something while you sit there.... still." Gabriel made a warning glare telling her to stay put as he half stood making his way to the kitchen. A tell-tell sign she only had moments to make up her mind before he was off.

So rich boy could cook.....SUHWEET!! She was about to get up, but then she saw his expression. There was glaring at her, it had to mean...keep your ass in bed. Pouting a little, the brunette watched as Gabriel headed towards the door. WHAT DID SHE WANT!? Was he asking her? It was confusing, especially since Gabriel hadn't exactly said anything about what she wanted. Decision making sometimes, especially when involving food, was not exactly her best skill. Staring at the young man, she'd think about it.
"I....you!...can?.....I don't know....SURPRISE ME!"
After a lot of debating out loud and in her mind, the brunette would eventually just yell: surprise me. Decisions about food were never good, she could never make up her mind. Anything would be better than fancy KD..... or instant noodles. Looking down at the blanket's, she'd feel a little bad for leaving the decision up to Gabie. But it was probably for the best. Laughing a little, she'd watch him disappear,"Sorry."
....
...
.....
Once he left....
Addie listened for a moment, waiting for the silence. It was time, turning herself slowly, she'd once again go to get up. Sitting in bed was not her style at all, she needed to get up and move. Oh of course, her mistakes would repeat and she'd end up on her up on her butt. A little light headed and very sore. "ow..." She'd sit there for a few moments before getting up and walking slowly; her head hurt.. ha ha ha ha, I'm fine, hur hur hur... no need to stay in bed!
She was stubborn....

Gabriel hurried off to the kitchen to prove that unlike most other men he was in fact quite sophisticated in more way than one. Cooking was something he was taught to do when he was very young only his skills had improved over the years as he siphoned through the refrigerator looking for something classy to assort. Generally he'd go for something like a side of salad with many servings of entrees and whatnot. But he figured it best not to scare Addie off the first time. Something reserved this day with a bit of poise.
Gabriel settled up the fire of the oven setting a pan over it as he dashed in a slab of meat. Yes it looked rather like what a heathen would take mind to but Gabriel would make it look fairly feminine, soft hands to a rough man and that was a gentle mix of death. Gabriel was secretly an artist. Very dangerous the mix indeed.
Throwing peppers and leaf petals atop the meat it would settle into an array of flavor much unlike what it was accustomed to that with the addition of some sauce to boil in the thing would look more artsy than edible at one point but still it would fill the house with succulent flavor.
"Diner will be ready in two seconds!" Gabriel projected followed by pointing a directing finger back to bed knowing all too well Addie was behind him.
