Rio rolled his eyes, opening a canteen, drawing his sword he summoned a bright blue aura, slashing his blade in a quick whip-like motion he copied X's move, sending an attack at the next target, leaving in singed.

Infuse. That word kept running through her mind. Her shadow ability isn't strong, so that probably won't do much, and reading minds definitely won't have an effect, so it was down to connection to the dead. "Weapon, huh?" She walked around and slightly poked the weapons to maybe see if she felt something from one.

X studied his movements and walked over "you have strong power and you Aura is amazingly powerful. But because of these reasons, you can also be overpowered by your aura and launch a weaker attack. Before attacking, close your eyes and focus, then flick your wrist right as you bring the sword down." He demonstrated.

(I have no idea how to sword fight so I'm making stuff up, donut take my words for granted!!)

Ziva watched, paying close attention to the tips X gave with a sly grin. This could be fun.

Rio nodded, knowing X was probably more experienced. Closing his eyes he tried it again, the movements flowing naturally, taking a closer look he noticed he had water converged on his sword. Drat, didn't mean to do that… he thought, taking a better look at where he'd dented the target.

Phoenix was now beginning to regret not infusing a weapon earlier. She knew exactly the weapon she wanted to use in mind, but it wasn't infused with her aura. She let out an annoyed sigh, she couldn't do anything again! She didn't want to use one of the school's weapons since she had her own. She looked to X, "What if we have a weapon, that isn't infused, but we want to use and isn't here?"

Arabella walked over to the weapons and sighed, none of these felt right. She stopped in front of a silver bow, hidden under a bunch of swords, taking it out, she gasped. It was hideous.

She looked to X, "What if we have a weapon, that isn't infused, but we want to use and isn't here?"

"Well love, we have a variety of weapons here. You will find one that calls to you. Some weapons are specially designed by previous students." He explained, showing a real smile

Phoenix sighed. Of course he would say that. She looked around and found that none of them appealed to her like that her own did. She looked back to X, "Yeah no. I want to get my weapon."

Nothing really caught her eye, but she really hadn't ever worked with any weapons. Then it happened, a dark gray aura appeared as her finger touched a small crossbow, but not just one. The twin of the other crossbow lit up as well. "Um, does this mean I should infuse with them?"

Azalea looked around the room and saw some ninja star shaped blades and took three of them between her fingers. As a kid, she learned how to use a multitude of weapons for mainly defense but it were the blades that called out to her. She hadn't learned the infusion part yet or how to do it but she tried. She looked at a target in front of her and used three as a test to she if she could remember how to use them. The blades flew through the air like wind and hit the target. "I still got it." She said to herself before trying the infusing part. When she tried and hit the target board, the blades fell and hit the ground with a clatter, not even making a dent in the board. "A little help?"

"Interesting Sage, it seems that your Aura appeals to two weapons. Pick them both up and see which one is more heavier. If they have the same weight, then you have 2 weapons to infuse your power with." X grinned.

He walked over to Azalea next and looked at her position "did you try focusing your energy? Close your eyes and imagine your energy is water. Try moving that water Into your whole body evenly. Then keep a light hand when throwing the stars. If you can't use a light hand, throw mor than one togather but less than 4." He explained.

He nodded in Pheonix's direction "if you really want to use your own weapon, go for it, although you may lose points. Alternatively, you can try using your wings as your weapon." He said, winking

Ziva pulled out her collapsible bowstaff, mind racing through ideas a mile a minute as she examined it.

Rio looked around at the others, watching them carefully. His sword was held lightly at his side, ready for use.

Ziva shrugged and shook it out to it's full length, closing her eyes as she dug around for her magic. After a moment, the staff suddenly had a glowing spearhead, made of a golden light, and she grinned. Nice!

X nodded appreciatively "it seems someone has been practising. Tell me, do you have solar power?" He asked

They were both small and light, almost like she could just attach them to her wrists. "Would there be anyway to make them sit on my wrists?" She looked over to X a gleam in her eyes. Maybe now she'll be useful to the team.

Ziva shook her head, laughing. "Light manipulation. It just looks fancy."

Azalea tried again, picking up the blades and did as Xavier said. It took quite a few tries, but she eventually got it to where all the blades hit the target as close to the middle as possible. She breathed out in relief once it happened, worn out from throwing and leaned on the wall.

"Light manipulation can be strengthened into beams so you can imitate solar power." He smirked. He turned back to Sage and noticed the gleam in her eye "of course, first try infusing your power then we can have these custom made." He grinned

"Good to know." Ziva tossed the now spear hand to hand, before trying out a move she had seen a man do once a while ago.

Phoenix laughed slightly, "Why would I lose points for using my own weapon?" She then tried to remember where she put it only to realize it had been sitting in her bag that she kept on her. For reasons, mainly because the writer is lazy and doesn't want to write Phoenix getting the weapon, but shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. She pulled out a metal rectangular object, Phoenix was a tinkerer so of course she took a traditional weapon and made it her own long ago. The weapon was light as she danced it along her fingers opening the scythe up to it's full size. She had a wicked grin on, Phoenix always knew this would be her chosen weapon. She just never had the courage to infuse herself with it.

"How do you infuse? And I'm not entirely strong in my actual combat ability, so, can I still infuse?" Maybe her connection to the dead would work, but she wasn't entirely positive.

"I can help!" Ziva skipped over, wrapping an arm around Sage's shoulders.

Sage was a little startled by the sudden touch of someone, but she smiled anyway. "Thanks." Sage leaned into Ziva, "I'm sort of the weak one in my family, so no one really bothered to teach me anything." She whispered, so no one else would hear.
