Fighting With Powers [Monday, Fourth Period]
The Danger Shop was set up to look and feel like a warm spring day in a nice open grassy field. Max could have picked just about anything with space to move in, but it amused him to go for something incongruous with the actual weather.
Again his voice was loud, but at least they were outside so the effect wasn't quite as bad as it had been last week. "Welcome back to Fighting With Powers. Last week we talked a bit about what each of us is capable of. This week we're going to take that and put it into practice."
Max took nearly an entire minute to study each of his students in turn. Eventually he nodded, more to himself than to them. "Since I want as much time as possible to evaluate each of you, there's no lecture or anything today. We're going straight to today's exercise."
"The activity comes in two parts. First, each of you will spar with me for a couple of minutes. This will allow me to really gauge what you already know and what you can do while allowing your fellow students to get a feel for the same thing. Then you'll break into pairs and practice with one another. Try to pick a partner who can teach you something, or at least challenge you with a power or technique you haven't dealt with before."
Any questions? No, of course not. Good.
"That's it. Let's get started."

Re: Spar with Max
"I would fire a blast of power at the attacker's head in an attempt to keep him down for awhile. Then I would keep up the sight shield and run like hell to get to safety."
Re: Spar with Max
Max smiled. "Next time, do it."
He'd recover.
Re: Spar with Max
"Yes, sir."
Re: Spar with Max
Max stood up. "It's a start." He smiled just a bit. "Turns out you're not as helpless as you might have thought."
