[markmichael]

Mark will make his way to the closet of his room and would pull an old wooden box from it. Opening it slowly the black hilt of the sword would be seen, as he would slowly take it out from the box sheath and all. Standing he would grab one of his Katana's as well and will make his way to the Halo Deck. Going into the halo deck"computer Accent Japan."
He was in a blue black silks and had on wooden sandals. placing the swords on his sides as he would slowly walk down a street to a dojo of that time period and would walk in. Taking off his sandals and would bow t one part of the room. Slowly stepping onto the wooden floor he would then move slowly and with a grace in his steps.
As he was moving he would do a flip and would pull one of his swords out as he landed back on the floor. He was down on one knee and the sword was infrount of him. His eyes where closed as he would then slowly get back to his feet and would seem to dance with the sword. Slow and grace full moves where all he was worried about. He had no one to fight at all, but with the moves his he was doing he could kill with them. He told others he did not know how to fight. Well that was not true, at the age of 5 he was tough how to us his hands as a weapons and then learned other things during time. He never once took time out for him self till now. Anger flashed in his eyes as he thought of his father and mother. His moves will come faster, as the sound of the sword cutting threw the air would be heard if any watched him.
He did not here if any one did come in or not but did not care at all.

[markmichael]

Mark slowly walked into the holodeck. He would pull his swords and would clip the two hilts together. This was where he will have fun. Well his type of fun that is. Closing his eyes as he typed in the commands for a fight seen., He was going to take on 3 people at once. Switching the safety's to off, as well. moving out into the field that he had set up for this.
His cold eyes would open as he looked to the three"computer run program." As the words where said he would move the staff like weapon around and infrount of him, the swish of the blades cutting threw the air would be heired.
The 3 enemy as Mark was thinking them as would slowly move about him. His eyes watched the 3 of them till one of them got behind him. And now the fun.Mark would move swiftly dropping down to one knee as he would spin. The staff sword would go out and would slam right into the leg of the man behind him. Mark seeing the others blade coming at him he would us the other end of the staff and would block one of the hits as he kicked out at the last.Flipping up to his feet as he would slowly look at the other two. The 3rd one was down but not out. He moved away from the down person, as he was twirling the blade staff in-frount of him. Stopping it as he looked to the other two.
One of them came at him head long as the other went to attack him on the side. He blocked one and then the other. Fighting with such a long weapon had such a good range and good at defense. Flipping it over in his hands, as he went out for another attack, clipping one of there shoulders as he did a side roll landing on his feet, as he did a kick the the head of the other. He had his weapon out to the side and his other hand out to the side, as if to say come and get me. His cold eyes melting into there souls, or should say if they had souls.
Slowly he walked back words as he watched the two of them. The both moved on him, sweat was rolling off his face as he blocked there hits. Moving the staff in a way to get to kills for the price of one. The blade ripped right threw the two of them and blood will fall to the ground. Marks eyes then looked to the one down on the ground and he threw the staff weapon at him. The blade would go right threw the head of the man killing him.

2ndLT. Hunter entered the holodeck to work of some pent up energy.He walked in and saw the fighter pilot Mark he thought his name was.He was very skillfully wielding a Japanese Katana and dispatching enemies with ease and grace.William entered the simulation.Excuse me for intruding I am 2ndLT.William Hunter.I see you are very good with the blade.::Hunter looked at the blade Taargh made for him.::"If you have the time I would really like to practice with you.I am good with a sword,::Showing the rather large weapon he held.::"But like they say practice makes perfect."Hunter waited for a second."That is if you want a sparring partner?''

[markmichael]

He would slowly look to the 2nd Lt Hunter. He would nod to him and would move aside. Mark had made it so that his Katana's where clicked together like a doable bladed staff. He would bow to the of Hunter."I do not see why not"
Sweat was rolling down his face but he still had a lot more to do. He watched the Lt as he stood to one side. Holding for him to be ready

[tidus1194]

Hunter watched as the pilot put his Katanas together to form a double bladed weapon.One blade on top one blade on bottom.the pilots face was set and his eyes fixed.He bowed to Hunter and very calmly answered,."I do not see why not" The pilot then stood to one side in a reactionary stance.Hunter saw the sweat running down the pilots face.His face,his stance,and his eyes told 2ndLT.Hunter he would need every ounce of his heightened strength and speed to keep up with This guy.Hunter bowed back to the pilot.He put both hands on the pommel of his blade.The cold metal of the blade and the way his hands seem to mesh with his sword made Hunter feel more at ease.::Smiling slightly::Hunter replied,"This should be interesting."He then began a quick series of sweeps and jabs with his sword.The world around him became nothing.It was his sword against the man before him and his sword.

[markmichael]

Mark would just stand there. Hunters word's would seem to flow out ,"This should be interesting." watching, as Hunter started with Jabs and sweeps as he moved in. his eyes would narrow as he would bring the blade into block and would flip to the side, in a roll like fashion. He was fast for a human that was for sure. Mark watched hunter. He did not come in with his own attacks yet. He was still watching his movements.
Mark was seeing what he can do, as well as to see when would be a good time to strike that is. He seemed to be very, well cool headed, but still there always seemed to be a flair of wanting to hurt some one about him as well.

[tidus1194]

Hunter moved forward.His attacks where blocked with great skill.Mark rolled to one side and blocked yet another flurry of attacks.Hunter was very impressed,Mark was very fast and flowed with the attacks.Hunter had an erie feeling he was about to be on the defensive like he had never been before.

[markmichael]

Mark would watch, as hunter would just stand there. His eyes would narrow. What was he waiting for? For mark to let him see what he was made of.? Mark would move the staff sword since that is what it looked like and would twirl it in one hand as he would then start to go back and forth between the two hands. He watched hunter as he would then move it without a warning at all. The first hit was going right for the leg of hunter, as the sound of the blade cutting threw the air would be herd, his eyes held-
nothing at all but the look of death? Or was it something more.? His moves where flowing now, as the other side of the weapon would then come up to hit Hunters shoulder if he blocked the first.


Hunter saw Mark closely watching him and his defensive poster.Mark began to twirl the blade moving it from hand to hand .Hunter watched his arms to see when Mark would strike.It came very fast a sweep toward Hunters legs.Hunter immediately blocked the swing.Only to feel Marks blade come over the top and hit him in the shoulder.Hunter was forced back by the blow."This guy is very fast .""thought Hunter.
Hunter switched tactics as he moved backward from the blow he went low and attempted to leg sweep Mark .

Marks eyes would see that one of his two hits had hit Hunter. As he did not see the blow from Hunter and he would fall back. Still laying on his back he would us his long reach to help him. Twirling the blade over his chest and then out right at hunters leg yet again. He still would be down as his weapon went to one hand, as he did a flip back to his feet, as soon as his feet touched the ground he would twirl around and had the blade now behind his back with his back to Hunter. Keeping his back covered, as the blades where still moving at a fast pace, he was not going to let him get the better of him. Mark moved swiftly as he turned again and a foot came from no where it would seem heading right for Hunters gut.


Hunter saw Mark go down from the leg sweep he went forward to use his leg to pin him but Mark flipped back up blade still moving.As Hunter attempted to block the blade,Mark moved so fast he seemed to vanish.As Hunter got his bearings straight,he suddenly found a foot hitting him dead in the gut.Hunter tried to stay upright but the kick knocked him in the floor.Hunter found himself both defenseless and the wind knocked out of him."You are by far the best I have ever spared with ,Hunter announced.How did you learn those moves he said getting up nursing a sore gut ,shoulder and pride.

His blade tip was now touching the neck of Hunter, as he would then pull the blade away from him looking down." I learned them from going to school. Even when I was not able to go I was in the Holodecks learning. I trained with a Man Named Bruce Lee in the Holodecks as well. He is dead. Died back in the 1950's or 60's. I can not remember." Marks eyes watched Hunter. Mark's Face was dripping sweat and his breathing was slightly faster after the good work out, but Hunter can still much more fight in him

"I understand ."As Mark pulled his blade away Hunter saw he was ready for more.Using his enhanced strength and speed Hunter jumped back up and using the pommel of his sword,he swung it like brass knuckles toward Marks torso to try and get a clean rib punch into this talented martial artist.

That blow got him off guard slightly. It would hit and the sound a bone would be herd cracking. Mark would wince slightly and with a single move the two swords where no longer one. Mark was in full Attack mode. Both the blades where moving in unison. Moving in-front and behind him at different time. Hunter got Mark upset. His eyes would Narrow and he moved in on Hunter. One attack after another from the two blades. One for the leg as another came for the Gut, as well a round house right for Hunters head.
Mark would do a back flip away from Hunter, holding back no longer on the Half human and half Romulan.

Hunter saw Mark wince slightly,then Mark changed.His eyes narrowed,his face hardened.Mark unlocked his blades and attacked with them at Hunters gut and his leg.Hunter quickly blocked the two sword sweeps.He did not see the round house that landed straight in his jaw.Hunter could hear the crack of his back teeth.The coppery taste of blood filled his mouth.Hunter swept his sword across the side of Mark trying to score another hit to the ribs.

Coming down with the hilt of one sword to block,as Mark would have a cold face. Nothing on his face would give away his next move. As the hit would help with the twirl of his own sword, Mark's sword would find he hopped a mark right on the sword arm of Hunter. Leaving a nice cut if it hit, Mark would then yet again move back and away from Hunter to see what Hunter would do next. both where hurting but still Mark seemed not to show it on his face, but his breathing did show it thought

Hunters sword grazed Mark across the back of his ribs.But before Hunter could swing again a-blade came across his word arm leaving a perfect cut.Blood flowed freely from Hunters arm.Mark backed away slightly.His face fixed only his breathing told Hunter he was hurt at all.Hunter clinched his face from the pain .Pain was you're friend it showed you were still alive.Hunter swung his sword half way again toward Marks ribs.Using his other hand he tried to get a quick punch into Marks jaw hoping he would be Focus on the sword and not the punch.
Hunter found himself liking Mark.Even though they where pulling no stops in this sparring match,Marks determination was very obvious.Hunter found that quality an asset.He pushed those thoughts aside and hoped his punch would land.

Seeing both Mark would roll dropping one sword to the ground and would turn so his back was facing Hunter as he would twirl the sword behind him blocking the Sword hit. Hunters punch on the other hand would almost him but still make Marks head twist from the Hit as blood came from the hit. Still not a full hit that Hunter was Hopping for. But with the Blow Mark seemed to roll With it.
His leg came out and would then Wrap up and Around the back of Hunters head as Mark was know behind Hunter watching him from behind from the full force kick. Mark will spit blood from his mouth, as he would then get ready for more attacks. his sword was held in-front of him and was ready for Hunter. The other was on the ground where he was last standing at.

Hunter was breathing hard.Blood was coming from his mouth and his shoulder.He saw the punch connect with Mark,but he amazingly used his legs to wrap around Hunter and he was suddenly behind him.Hunter turned Quickly to see Mark with one sword in his hand .Was he waiting to see what Hunter would do next?Hunter smiled slightly blood trickling from a cracked jaw.He then came forward with an overhead swing aiming for Marks sword arm.
Hunter was breathing hard the pain from swinging his sword was felt throughout his entire body.He would not let that stop him .The overhand swing went forward hoping to hit its mark

Seeing this Mark would move in on Hunter as well blocking the hit. What was Hunter thinking if at all? Since he was so close he would slam one knee hard into the gut of Hunter, as he would move around and would slam and elbow right into his face hard. He had blocked the hit with the back side of his own sword trying to keep it sharp but from the force it did cut slightly into his shoulder. Using Hunter's own body against him as well Mark would land a hard kick right to the side of Hunter trying to end the spar? Or was it a fight now.?

Hunter realized his mistake as soon as he did it.Mark was much to close for such a careless swing.Hunter immediately felt Marks knee hit him in the ribs a slight cracking noise came from that blow,Next came Marks elbow right into Hunters face blood pouring from a very busted lip.The final blow came to an unbalanced Hunter,another kick to his side his ribs cracking even more.Hunter went flying.His sword spun across the floor.He laid there feeling every blow Mark had put on him.Hunter started to laugh.
His whole body screamed at him for laughing but he could not help himself.He had spent 17 years an outcast on Earth and now he felt much of his pent up rage slowly slip away.Slowly he stood,::Bowing to Mark.::"You are very good.I have not fought like this in years.I truly thank you.You have shown me much.I would love to train with you when you have the chance."::Offers a very sore arm in a handshake.::"One question, how do we explain this to the Doctor?

He would Shake Hunters hand and would only say "the Klingon's." He would then turn and get his other sword and would sheath it back up "And when you want to have another go come and find me Hunter"

[tidus1194]

2nd Lt. Hunter shook Marks hand and went and picked up his own sword.Wiping the blood from his mouth,Hunter smiled Mark was picking up his own sword he turned and softly said"And when you want to have another go come and find me Hunter" William stood there for a second.Even though they went overboard he felt some major stress relief.The way Mark walked away made Hunter think that was not the case for Mark."I would love it if you could teach me some of your techniques Mark."Hunter sweet pouring body aching,stood waiting for a reply.That is if Mark would give one.

[markmichael]

Mark would nod to Hunter. "When we are not on duty or when we have free time I shall." A nod of his head was given and he left. No other words where said. He walked out as if nothing had happened but there was and he knew it.

Turning as he hit the hall he would make his way to his room. He was going to lay down and get some rest, the work out was a good one.

[tidus1194]

Hunter stood there for a second looking at Mark.He simply stated "When we are not on duty or when we have free time I shall." Hunter watched as the pilot Mark sheathed his sword and left the Holo-Deck.Hunter sat down for a moment catching his breathe."Computer please activate a mountain waterfall background program.William sat there and felt the soft Earth beneath him and listened too the water."I need to talk too Admiral Taylor and see if she can set up communications with Captain Radaik .He needed help understanding his Romulan side.

[markmichael]

Walks up and into the holodeck."computer Dark ages Japan. 17th gin dynasty." As the image would flicker in he would be in on of the Inns of that time. A glass of Saki sitting in front of him and a man talking to him about who was his next kill. He was silent. He was in the Japans clothing of the time and had on wooden sandals as well. Black kimono on as well. The leather arm wraps on as well.

He would give a nod of his head as the man was talking ~s~ "When do you want the man killed?"
The other man would lift a brow "the sooner it is done the sooner you will get your pay Assassin"

He would stand from where he was sitting at and would slowly walk away from the man who had asked him to do the job. His feet slowly moving and his head down. Night fall was coming and he had seen the man and his guards walk a certain way from the meeting place to the mans home he was to kill.

He would stand in the shadows and would then slowly step out of them in-front of them all. His hand holding the sheathed Katana

The two Guards would narrow there eyes at the man in-front of them"Clear the way peasant. We do not have time to teach you how to us the sword right now."

He did not look up to them at all ~s~ " I do not need you help with this. I am sorry but I must kill you all for your betrayal to the Empire" He would end the words as he would watch as a man ran at him. Sliding the sheath into the belt on his side and with lightning fast reflex his sword was out, as he would slam it threw the mans gut. Placing his other hand on the blade he would cut the man clean in half. Blood flying every where as he would move right for the other guard who stepped in the way of his master.

His sword went right threw the other face under the chin and out of the top of his Head.

The one who he was to kill went wide eye. Both his guards where killed and the man, the assassin was not touched yet. He has to stay alive for his wife and his kids. He can not die here and not like this.

Mark would rip the blade out of the last guards face cutting it in half as he would look to the mark he was to kill and then the true fight would start

[markmichael]

The man who was to kill eyes went wide. His sword was also out, as he watched the Assassin."I will pay you ten times what they are paying you to kill me?"

He would shake his head and would just move in on the man. His blade would move right at the gut of the man. It was ether die or fight for the person he was to kill.

Taking a step back as the assassin came at him he would drop the sword down to block the blow. Move the sword back up for a strike of his own.
His strike would be going for the assassins head he was not going to let this man live if he could help it.

His eyes would narrow as he would move his sword in the way the sound of metal on metal would be herd. He would growl, as he would side step grabbing the mans sword arm and would bring his sword across the mans sword arm it self so he would be fighting with his off hand. Flipping back and away he watched the man be in pain.

He would wince and step back almost dropping the sword as he watched the assassin. It seemed he was going to toy with him. He would move the sword to his left hand, as he moved in on the assassin. He had to live for his kids and wife.

Wrong move of the mark. He would drop down and under the others sword slicing his sword into the cut of the one he was to assassinate. Pushing the blade threw him as the body would drop in half.
Mark would stand and would walk away cleaning the blade and sheathing it up

[tidus1194]

2nd LT.Hunter walked into the holodeck to get some practice with his blade and meditation as Mark had told him to do."Think of the blade as an extension of yourself."This is what Mark had told him.Hunter was so deep in thought he did not notice a program was running at first.He looked up and saw himself standing in Feudal Japan.In the middle of the room he saw Mark dressed in the proper attire for the simulation.He was talking to a man.Hunter could not hear them at first so he stepped a little bit closer.He caught the end of the simulated mans response."the sooner it is done the sooner you will get your pay Assassin".Assassin? what was Mark doing?Hunter watched as Mark walked down a hill and blended in the shadows.There was an ancient style Japanese house nearby.Hunter watched as two men apparently guards apparently came from the house with another man behind them.Words were exchanged as the guards appeared caught off guard by Mark emerging from the shadows.Mark held his Katana still sheathed.Suddenly faster than Hunter could imagine Mark sprang to life and engaged the guards.In mere seconds Mark dispatched the two men like a man reaping wheat.He then approached the man behind the two dead guards.Hunter watched wanting to turn away but could not.The man was near the verge of screaming as he offered Mark ten times the price to let him live.Mark seemed to not hear the man or rather refused to listen.The man pulled his own katana and another sword fight continued.This one lasted longer but Hunter noticed Mark was merely playing with the man.Soon it was over the man lying in a growing pool of blood.Mark wiped his sword and put it back in the sheath.Hunter was amazed at Marks swordsmanship,yet horrified by this scenario.As Hunter watched Mark walk away he stammered"Thats one hell of a way to vent Mark."Getting his voice back finally,Hunter asked "Why would you use an assassination program?I want to train with my weapon but I do it because I am a Marine Mark.I have had to use it not by choice but because it was them versus me."Hunter just stood there not sure what to say or do.
