Geo charged forward as well, lowering his head and puting his arms out like he used to when he played foot ball, this was going to be hard without being able to move the earth to his advantage but it definatly gave him a chance to work with his enhanced strength. He hoped that it wouldn't stress out Deja that he was fighting his friend, even though he had no intentions of actually harming him.

Josh ducked under Geo's charge and rammed his should into his gut, then pick him up and put him on his back with a double leg takedown. All those years of judo and olympic wrestling had really helped Josh to develop his own unique fighting style. After putting him on his back, Josh grabbed one of Geo's arms and put him in an armbar. He had never done this to a guy with rock arms but was sure it had to hurt. He applied more pressure, "You gonna tap?"

Geo was suprised at the guys hand to hand combat skills, 'ah crap this is gunna suck' he thought to himslef, Josh put him in an arm lock which really didn't do anything because his arm was purely made of stone. Tristan chuckled when he asked if he was going to tap out, "Yea right," Tristan swung his arm over his body so that Josh hit the floor on the other side of him, then scrambled to his feet, fist up and ready.

Josh punched the ground and then stood back up. 'I shouldnt have been careless. I dont really know what this guy can do........let's find out.' he thought to himself. Josh stood up and then popped his neck. 'Well I cant harm his arms, lets go for the legs.' he thought. Without a second thought Josh ran a dove to drop kick Geo in his knees.

Geo feel as the kick hit his knees and hit his face on the floor, "Damn!" He cursed, he pushed off the ground with his giant fist and got to his feet. His knees trembled a little bit but Geo got them back under his control. Geo grabbed Josh's foot while he was still on the ground and tossed him towards a wall.

Josh crashed into the solid wall, leaving a big indention in it. 'That was ruff. If it werent for my exoskeleton I'd be down for the count', he thought. After standing back up, he realized that he needed to get Geo into his element. 'Hell its the best plan ive had so far.' he thought. Without any hesistation, Josh rushed towards the light switch and turned the lights off in the room making it pitch black. After his night-vision eyes adjusted, "Hey Geo, your a brute no doubt, but you can fling those rock arms around blindly all day and youll never hit what you cant see. O and Deja, dont be scared. Just stay where your at." After his short gloat, Josh rushed towards Geo, extending the two stingers from his hands and stuck them through Geo's hands. To which he followed with a knee aimed at Geo's gut.

Deja looked at the two. She couldn't help but be nervous. Even though it was sparring, they could seriously hurt each other. Deja then did, what she could..which was look in fear and excitement at the same time.

Geo walked around nervously when the lights went out, he had no idea where the next attack would be from, He circled in the same spot until two stingers went through his hands, "Gotcha," He whispered as he attempted to throw Josh out of the way by his stingers but still getting hit by a knee in the flesh of his shoulder, he fell to the ground that knee really hurt. "Ugh dang man," Geo knew that he had no chance of actually tracking Josh in the dark unless they were outside or somewhere where the floor was covered in earth.

Josh skidded across the floor before stabbing a stinger in the ground to stop his momentum. "Fighting in pitch black's a bitch aint it Geo?" After circling for a second, Josh picked up a dumbell and through it at the opposite side of the room to distract Geo while he started his next attack. He took off in a sprint and threw a right haymaker towards the back of Geo's head.

Deja noticed all this happening, and one or both of them could get hurt. Deja wanted it to stop.and to be able to see. All of a sudden, as she opened her eyes, they turned pitch blue and the lights came on, and there was a force separating the boys. ''It's over!" With that Deja's eyes returned to normal and she looked at the two. "Was that sparring, because, last I checked, no one was suppose to get really hurt!" Deja quickly, went to get a water, and looked at the two still pissed.

The holes in Geo's hands filled with rocks, and would be good as new when he powered down, but for now he had to focus. He closed his eyes so that his sight would stop straining and listened for any sign of where he was. There was a large clanking form across the room and Geo turned pushing up his arms to block an attack only to receive a blow to the back of his head, Geo stumbled forward running into a punching bag. The sand inside shifted as he hit it, Geo then got an idea. He kicked off his boots and ripped the bag from the chains connecting it to the ceiling. A large hole formed in the top and sand pored out and onto the floor, Geo felt it fall all around his feet and over his hands. When the bag awas empty Geo threw they empty bag aside and twisted his foot, the sand coming to attention, the battle feild was now level. Suddenly the lights came back on and Deja was standing at the edge of the gym looking very angry and was yelling, Tristan stood up and his arms shrunk back to normal the sand dropped to the ground. "But Deja....Baby I-I..." He didn't know what to say,

Josh immediately retracted his stingers and exoskeleton after he heard the yelling from Deja. Without saying a word he walked towards the exit, but before he left he leaned over and whispered into Deja's ear. "Baby huh? Sounds like you found that someone to be more than a friend. I'll be seeing you around. Call me sometime if you wanna." When he reached the door he threw it open and left, hurt.

As Josh, whispered in her ear, her heart broke. He made her feel, bad for being with Geo. Deja's eyes had tears, in them, and all she could do was put her hands over her eyes, to hide the tears. What he said to her, kept reappearing in her mind.

Kaz heard from a few people walking down the hall that there seemed to be a mutant fight in the weight room. Sighing Kaz headed towards it with as much haste as he could without running. By the time he got there he heard a woman yelling, and two male voices. <Love triangle? Grrreeeaaaat. This'll be fun.> His mental voice was dripping with sarcasm.

A man was walking out of the room just as Kaz neared it. "Hold it right there! Do not move another inch if you want to keep your head." Kaz was dead set on keeping his threat, and it showed by how he shifted to his second form. "Get back in that room. NOW!"

Josh went to walk past the guy, saying only what he thought needed to be said, "Go fuck yourself." As he neared passing the man, he readied himself to pop his stingers at the slightest hint of an attack.
