Elene Hall took out her sword and went to strike a target. She ran at it, but before she could get to it, she tripped and fell over. She laid there for a couple seconds, then punched the ground repeatedly. She was never going to be any good at fighting. She stood up and brushed herself off, and fixed her hair. She breathed deeply, trying to calm herself down. She ran at the target again and got to it, swung, and hit it. She didn't hit it hard enough to pierce the armor. She stomped away from it in frustration. She would defenately die at the next battle.

I walked into the Arena and saw a girl there, She seemed really frustrated at fighting a straw dummy or something like that. I walked up to her as she stomped away, "Are you having trouble with training? I can teach you." I told her. I took out my celestial bronze sword and slashed at a straw dummy and the straw fell out. "I'm trained you see, I've been here since I was seven but I ran away, I'm Billy Johnson, Son of Hermes and you must be?"

Elene looked over at Billy. "Oh, hi. I'm Elene Hall, Daughter of Demeter. I'm guessing you saw that?" She said, slightly blushing and looked away. "Well, um, yeah I need some help. As you probably saw, I'm pretty clumsy and can't fight to save my life." She said with a sheepish smile.

I nodded. "It's alright," I replied, I was like that once when I was seven years odl; Trying to fight but couldn't. "Okay sure, but your stance is wrong. Hold your sword so that the pommel is right above your bellybutton (don't rest it on the stomach, keep it a little ways out) and point the tip somewhere between the sternum and throat. Now if they charge full on they'll run into your weapon."

Elene did as he said and was amazed at much more balanced she felt holding like this. "Yeah, uh, I knew that." She said, still blushing. "So what next?" She asked, still feeling amazed at how much more balance one little diffirence had made. She had a feeling she would a lot by the end of this training session.
