The only way to discover if you've learned anything is to test you," Anakin said, getting rid of his Jedi robes and hopping into the boxing ring that had been programmed into the Danger Shop. "So we've programmed increasingly difficult opponents for you to fight."

From an ancient game called "Mike Tyson's Punch-Out." This would go well.

Just ignore the popcorn Ahsoka had gotten from somewhere. "Master Skywalker will demonstrate the basic concept."

Anakin finished taping up his hands and put on the gloves. "Honestly, if you can't defeat Glass Joe yet, you have not been paying attention."

Ahsoka made a noise of agreement as she chewed on her popcorn.

"And make Master Tano share her snacks after you're finished," Anakin said, firing up the program and sending Glass Joe flying across the ring with one punch.

Had Ahsoka brought enough for everyone? Only time would tell.

Ready to rumble!

Listen to the lecture!

[sith_happened]

Watch Anakin hit a guy! You too will get to hit that guy!

Glass Joe, not Anakin.

Box!

[sith_happened]

How far did you get with all of the opponents?

Talk to Anakin and Ahsoka!

[sith_happened]

Ahsoka might share her popcorn. Might.

Ben made it ten rounds before getting taken out by the guy who literally charged at him. "What is this test, Granddad?" he asked, wiping sweat from his eyes.

"I'm teaching you to be prepared," Anakin said with a little smile.

This was ridiculous. Jon managed to down the first opponent, much to his surprise, and eventually made it past the second largely through his ability to stubborn through his own pain. That was as far as he was getting.

Vi

Re: Box!

[giveittoyoursister]

Vi, who was very much not thinking about the last time she was in a situation even vaguely similar to this, actually made it through all the opponents, due to some combination of sheer stubbornness and the simulation underestimating just how willing to fight dirty she was.

Her shoulder was going to let her know all about it later though.

Well, Arden defeated Glass-Jaw Joe. Aaaaaand only Glass-Jaw Joe.

But that was at least one?
