Ryan was submerged in what appeared to be a large fish tank, but when he saw Xander come in, he lifted himself out and the water began to drain. "Hey," he greeted.

"Hey." He nodded. "I'm sure you know hand-to-hand already, however the others have mastered the basics and I want to see how much you can do. You alright with that?"

"Yeah, I'm good with that," Ryan agreed, grinning.

Xander put his sheath aside and raised his fists for quick skirmish. "Alright, let's see what you can do."

Ryan raised his fists and faced him, waiting to see if Xander would make the first move. As they paired off, it was clear that Ryan had spent significant amounts of time practicing and was particularly good at getting out of holds.

Xander kept it up until they'd both gotten a few good shots in, but he didn't want to injure his soldier before they went into battle. He backed out after a few minutes. "You're impressive. If anything, for now I would work on your dodging - if you get fire or such thrown at you blocking may not work so well. At least until you get a firm handle on your power. For now I'd say you're fairly advanced on everything else."

Ryan grinned again, putting his hands behind his head. "Thanks. I'll work on that. What about the others? They know anything before?"

"Stephanie knows some very basic tactics, Cassie had formal training." Xander answered.

"I would hope so, considering you'll be fighting together."

"Hey, you've got us in rooms. I dunno what you're planning," Ryan said, smiling.

"Te rooms are designed to train you with your powers, the rest you'll have to find more conventional means of training. There's a shooting range on base."

"Yeah? That's cool. Never shot at a target before."

"It's easier than shooting at people. People move."

Ryan shook his head. "Yeah, I noticed. I guess you have backgrounds on all us, huh?"
