The locker room was not large, and there were but two entrances. One smaller door led to the dorm, where at least over fifty beds stood in rows. The other door was larger, over two metres in height and very wide. Both doors were closed at the moment, but the steel door in particular seemed like it only opened when it wanted to open. There were a few TVs scattered around the locker room, allowing those there to view the battle currently in the arena.

EMily was the first to speak up to Beth. She waved.
"Hello there. Might I ask what this place is?"

Gwen and the other two eyed one of the TVs broadcasting the match that was happening.
<color=purple>"Hmmmm...."

OOC: @Gear. You might also have to describe Beth again, as she is a new character for me.

Seeing Annika raise her hand towards her, Idun raised her shield to better cover her torso, not sure what would come, but cautious, just in case. Seeing the flames, Idun noted that it came from Annika herself, not the flame spirit, which made her wonder the spirits were even capable of acting on their own while bound to Annika.

The flames hitting the shield, sunlight flooded from it for as long as the fire made contact with it, and as the brightness of the light was blinding when just a flash, in a continued beam, Annika would risk permanently damaging her eyes quickly by looking at it without covering her eyes.

Not wanting to give Annika the time to fine-tune her aim, Idun charged at her, and when near enough, would thrust the front of her shield at Annika. If Annkika was at an angle where she could be thrown off the cliff, Idun would limit the force she put into the thrust to about the force of a heavyweight boxer throwing a hard punch, if not, it would be more like a heavyweight boxer putting their all into a blow.

When the flames hitting the shield caused a burst of light, Annika quickly stopped her attack. She managed to register that Idun was charging, and began channeling the ring-spirit into her hands and feet again. Before Annika lowered her body and raised her hands, she tossed the bear up and over Idun.

As Annika could, potentially, be knocked off the cliff, Idun's lessened blow would be easier for Annika to handle. Annika would dig her heels into the ground to prevent herself from being knocked off balance, and try to grab the edges of the shield with her hands.

EMily looked a little confused by Beth's reference to their former mode of work.
"W-we aren't... oh yes. The outfits confuse people sometimes. The outfits... well, let's just say for now that they're not what they appear to be."
She feels cybernetic. I can feel EM fields from some of her electronics.

<color=brown>"So is this a sparring thing? Or is this more death battle? It looks pretty intense from the look of what's appearing on the screens here." Sara pointed at the one she was viewing.

"May I ask who are you?"

Annika would have no trouble grabbing on to the edges of the should, but as she did, Idun would jerk it up, lifting Annika up off her feet if she didn't let go. If this was case, Idun would make a quick swing at Annika's right outer thigh with her axe's finely honed sharp edge.
If Annika did let go, Idun would kick towards Annika's right shin with enough force to fracture the bone in a normal human.

"Nice to meet you Beth." EMily curtseyed. "My name is EMily, and these are my sisters Sara, Winona, and Gwen."

<color=brown>"I'm not sure why it has to be to the death. If we were to join, could we just have our own sparring matches?"

[color=0047AB]"Nice to meet you all too. I guess you could just spar if you want, but I'm not sure. I don't know all the rules yet."[/color]

Annika was lifted up slightly, but quickly released the shield and dropped down. Idun's kick caused Annika to drop to her right knee, and cry out in pain. Rather than try to attack, Annika watched Idun carefully, anticipating the next blow. Her eyes began glowing softly, and, if Idun had a spirit bound to her equipment, Annika would see it. If Idun did not, however, Annika's expression would become puzzled.

After landing, the bear had stood up and turned towards Idun. The spell limiting his movements caused problems, and he decided to attack Idun from behind with streams of fire, aimed upwards at her lower back.

<color=purple>"I think I know where we are, EMily. It's that arena place we were at before but it's changed somehow."

<color=brown>"If it's sparring, I could probably do something to pass the time. Is there a custodian to help display the rules?"

<color=brown>"Hmmm..." Sara gazed at the screen again.

<color=green>"Sooooo.... where are you from, Beth?" Winona coyly asked.

Looking Idun over, Annika would find no spirit with her, although if she had the means to detect other supernatural things, she'd find both Idun's equipment and Idun herself fell in that category.

With the shield limiting her field of vision when charging at Annika, and the bear landing rather silently when it hit the ground, Idun wasn't aware the bear was behind her, and so it wouldn't have a very hard time hitting her. She shrieked as the flames licked her lower back, the fire beginning to melt the synthetic material the runner's top was made of, the hot slack sticking to Idun's skin.

Gritting her teeth, Idun jumped to the side, putting a fair amount of force in the jump, landing roughly half a metre away from Annika, and closer to the bear. From there, she wheeled around to an angle where she could keep an eye on both Annika and the bear, raising the shield towards the bear to protect her torso.

With the minimal size of the fire spirit, Idun didn't bother trying to hit it, instead, she opted for a different tactic. Moving her right hand so the wrist was pressed against the side of the shield, another magic circle appeared in front of the hand, the old Nordic text in this one reading "Banish. Cast out. Spectre."

Unlike the previous two spells, this one didn't form a second circle around the fire spirit. Instead, a white beam fired out at it from the centre of the circle. If the beam hit the fire spirit, depending on how strongly its ties to the mortal world was, it would either be cast out, or have said bonds weaken.
While not moving at light-speed as one might expect, the beam did travel roughly twice as fast as most 9mm bullets.

The spirit didn't make any attempt to dodge the beam, knowing simple magic would have almost no chance of fully breaking the contract between himself and Annika. As the power binding the fire spirit to the bear came from Annika's spirit, the bonds were barely weakened.

The bear continued to shoot fire at Idun, as both he and Annika could handle the light that Idun's shield created. Annika took advantage of Idun being distracted by protecting herself from the fire, and casting the spell, to charge. Annika's right shin glowed with the power of the ring spirit, keeping her on her feet. She would end her charge by diving on Idun, in an attempt to tackle her to the ground.

"Ah, Korea. So you're from Earth as well." EMily lit up a bit. "Although you're probably not from the same Earth as we are. We're scientists from the year 3023 A.D."

<color=green>"It's a little hard to take in, I know. Our attire usually doesn't give that idea. But you said you were... constructed. What were you made for?"

A man had appeared in the locker room. His hair was greying, and his face showed signs of obvious aging although his eyes which were a pale blue stayed quite vibrant in his old age. The man was wearing an open lab coat, which revealed that under it he was wearing a fine blue silk shirt, some black workman's cotton pants, and a pair of loafers. He walked with his hands in his pockets in a rather standoffish manner.
