violent action starters. 35 put my muse in a headlock. ( @shinrasfirst )

adjusting  her  gloves,  elena  glanced  at  the  man  in  front  of  her.  they  were  both  clad  in  workout  attire,  devoid  of  their  usual  uniforms,  yet  he  sported  those  unmistakable  sunglasses,  perched  unyielding  on  his  nose.  how  they  stayed  there  through  the  rough  exercises  they'd  been  through  already  that  day  made  her  even  more  keen  to  take  him  by  surprise  and  best  him.  this  wasn't  their  first  round  together,  but  elena  had  been  using  her  guns  more  recently,  and  thus  felt  like  she  needed  to  practice  her  martial  arts  and  focus  on  her  fists.

she  stared  across  the  room  at  him,  taking  in  the  way  his  sunglasses  reflected  the  sun's  rays  as  he  adopted  a  defensive  stance.  they  circled  each  other,  measuring  their  moves.  she  had  to  find  an  opening,  but  where  ??  she  may  be  a  prodigy  at  martial  arts,  but  the  training  that  turks  went  through  was  nothing  to  sneer  at  either.  in  a  flash,  elena  lunged  forward,  feinting  with  a  punch  to  his  left  side.  he  barely  flinched,  sidestepping  with  ease.  raising  her  fist  again,  it  simply  grazed  the  side  of  his  ribs  as  she  tried  to  strike  him.  movement  caught  her  eye  and  she  leapt  backwards,  dodging  a  knee  to  her  gut.  he'd  caught  her  out  with  one  of  those  when  she  first  began  with  the  turks ;  it  had  bruised  her  ego  and  caused  her  to  kneel  on  the  ground  to  catch  her  breath  back.  embarrassing.

as  elena  attempted  to  press  the  attack,  rude  countered  her  strikes  with  grace,  his  massive  frame  and  agility  a  surprising  combination.  it  seemed  impossible  to  catch  him  off  guard.

but  she  was  determined.  she  feigned  a  high  kick,  causing  him  to  raise  his  guard.  in  a  flash,  she  dropped  low,  sweeping  her  leg  and  crashing  it  into  his.  skipping  back  slightly,  the  blonde  watched  as  he  landed  on  his  back  before  darting  in  again.

with  a  mischievous  grin,  elena  quickly  moved  behind  rude  and  looped  an  arm  around  his  neck,  pulling  just  tightly  enough  to  feel  him  freeze.  she  could  feel  him  strain  beneath  her,  but  she  held  her  ground.  she  wouldn't  choke  him  out,  he  was  a  big  guy  —  he  could  take  it.  he  was  a  formidable  opponent,  and  she  respected  that.

moments  passed  and  she  watched  as  he  tapped  her  arm  to  signal  his  surrender.  releasing  the  headlock,  the  blonde  stood  back  and  helped  him  to  his  feet.  taking  a  moment  to  catch  her  breath,  elena  grinned  at  him,  adrenaline  coursing  through  her.

you lax in attention at any point in this job, it's life or death.

that's what they told her. foolishly, the blonde only assumed that meant the field and not the confines of the shinra building. but could one wholly consider the shinra building safe ?? rumours had spilled, of course they had. she was the newest, shiny new toy for people to wait with bated breath to see how long she would last. the rookie, greenhorn, whatever you wanted to call it. this false sense of security vanished in that moment. the suit pressed to sharp angles and crisp white blouses, id tucked away safely in a hidden pocket. did it really mean comrades ?? expectations pressing on her shoulders ready to weigh her down, any failure she would make wouldn't reflect just on her. a sharp humiliation bloomed in her chest, nausea rolling her stomach as elena gathered herself up from the floor. files spread out around her, like fallen leaves waiting to be stepped on. a moment passed in slow motion as she stared up at the perpetrator, a dull ache in her shin revealing the cause of her fall.

//But could we get it reversed? Vio owns a soup restaurant and I'm sure Elena would love it asdgt.,kjh
