[Action]
[And yet in contrast to the near cheerful if determined explanation, the other girl's hair is in disarray, wild and wind blown, gently obscuring her face with the soft breeze as she pushes herself up straight.
Tears along her coat, slashes where she's obviously failed in the defense of herself are evident. Her flesh heals near instantly, that's true, but clothes are another matter all together. It's another frustration all in all. (Why didn't she think to wear something she wouldn't mind ruining? Common sense dictated she should have thought better.) Along her cheek dried stains of blood mar her pretty face, along with a small patch of dirt. One hand rising, she wipes unconsciously at it with the back of her hand.
Hah-!
Honestly, she's not even sure what her mother is yelling at this point. They're in the middle of training, so she has no idea how it is she can manage to somehow sound sparkly amongst it all. Let alone she never imagined she'd be thrown around nearly so much as she has been tonight. That glint in her mother's eye, clear sparkle as she beams with a determined smirk is anything but motherly. It's crazy.
Ah, geez!
Throwing a hand out she points back at her mother in return, indignant and near huffy.]
Stop being so showy! [Is it even possible to be so cheerful & brutal in one setting?] If you're trying to get me to take out Artemis, I've already said no! [There's no way she's going to use a weapon against her mother that has the potential to kill her. Though honestly she's a little stunned. She hadn't thought her mother would go full strength on her. It kind of hurts getting whipped around so hard. The memory of each of the strikes grits her teeth, her own fiery gaze lighting up.]
This time, it's not me who is going to take a bruising!
[Impossibly fast her feet push off from the ground, eyes darkening & narrowing as they lock onto her prey. Sprinting at near breakneck speeds, nails lengthen & elongate, sharp tips glinting menacingly in the obscure light of the night: the easiest time of day for creatures like themselves to focus and see in. Without breaking stride, sharp bolts of light & energy shower down upon her mother with a thunderous BOOM, before she herself is upon the spot, arm drawing back to powerfully strike.]
