Combat- Tuesday- 2nd period- Class #1

Today was probably the only day the class was going to meet in an actual classroom unless Jaina somehow got lazy enough for a movie day. ...She would probably not do that.

"Hey, guys," she greeted them from where she was sitting on the edge of her desk. It was probably the only time she'd get to do that in this classroom, too. "This is Combat, so if you're not supposed to be here, escape now. For everyone who's supposed to be here, my name is Jaina Solo, and we can be on a first name basis here. I know too many students for it not to be.

"I'm from another galaxy, a Jedi Knight with military training, and I'm good at fighting. Really good," she went on, without a hint of modesty, because well, it was true. "I'm betting a lot of you are, too. Some of you might even know more than me in some areas, and in others I'll completely surpass you. Learning is a process, and you're never really done with it. So in this class you're going to learn some skills, whether you've been doing this for years or have never thrown a punch in your life. Some of it will be hand-to-hand, some will be with weapons, some things you'll have seen and others you won't have any idea what it even is. We'll be starting that next week. This week, we're doing introductions. Yes, I know you'll be sick of them by Friday, but it's how I'm going to figure out where we are as a class. I want to hear your name, where you're from, what kind of experience you have, and if there's anything you want to learn in particular, say so." She pointed at someone at random. "Let's start with you."

"I'm Cassie Blake and I from New Salem, Massachusetts," she said shyly. "I don't have very much fighting experience, but I need to get some before I graduate. I did take two classes with Kennedy over the summer so I did pick up a few skills." She paused. "As for what I want to learn? I want to learn to be able to at least hold my own in a fight when attacked and maybe not get hurt before I can help someone else."

Or, you know, learning to fight witchunters to show them they should never try to use a branding iron on her ever again.
