Self-Defense - Wednesday evening, Gym

[threeweapons.livejournal.com]

The mats have been laid out, food is on a nearby table, and Alanna is bouncing in the middle of the room. The only new addition is a small black cat napping underneath the table.

"Okay guys, same drill as last week. Sign up, I pair you up and then I'll walk around and bug you about what you're doing wrong. Also, I don't want a repeat of last week. I don't care how minorly you are hurt, stop and talk to me. I don't want people walking around with bruises and scrapes. Don't make me break you up physically. Okay, gang, pair up."

"A little experience," Cordy said. "Not too much with the hand-to-hand, though."

Bel grinned. "Don't worry, I'll be gentle. I'll try to grab you and you do whatever you need to to get me to let go. Don't worry, I'm pretty tough. Just, uh, watch the ribs. They're a little tender today."

"Alright..." Cordy said, only mildly worried. She lifted her fists and prepared herself for his 'attack'.

Bel lunged at Cordelia, trying to grab her wrists.

Cordelia snapped her arms down and spun out of the way.

Following her spin, Bel moved behind Cordy and tried to circle his arms around her waist.

Cordy attempted to duck out of the hold, but knew she was too slow to make it, so settled for a gentle kick to his legs instead.

"That's good, keep me off balance," Bel said, stepping back. "The important thing is not to play dead and hope he relaxes his hold if someone grabs you. That just gives him a chance to get a better grip on you. Keep struggling. Make it hard for him."

Cordelia nodded and smiled. "I'm not the type to let a guy off easy, don't worry."

Bel worked with Cordelia through a series of moves, pointing out what she could do to defend herself against a particular attack. It was strange, a demon instructing an innocent on how to defend herself, but Phoebe was watching and he knew it brought a smile to her face to see him do this.


[[OOC: No problem!]]

As Bel worked with her, Cordy smiled. He was helpful, demon or not, and Cordy had learned that not all demons are bad. Logan must not have said anything bad about Belthazor, she determined, because she felt totally comfortable working with him.
