These are hard times we live in. Some of us have heard whispers and murmurs, others of us have felt it with our own skin - the Villain problem. It continues to run rampant, even if we don't always see it with our own two eyes. Our heroes are out there, on the streets and beyond, fighting valiantly on our behalf to keep society and, hell, civilization itself safe from these criminals lest they burn it all to the ground for whatever twisted ideas they've conjured up.
So I'm here to ask you a very simple question -- are you really okay with this?
Don't get me wrong, I don't doubt our heroes for a second. But do I believe protecting us -- the people who are supposed to learn to protect themselves -- and doing their job at the same time is easy? No. Frankly I don't believe that they can do it as effectively as they would like for long. Which is exactly why I believe it's time for us to be able to defend ourselves when the time comes, no matter the lowlife threatening us or the people around us.
Yes, combat training will undoubtedly help you grow. But can you tell me for certain you won't buckle under the pressure of facing off against someone very seriously trying to kill you? You won't get scared? You won't make a mistake that will cost you and/or someone else dearly?
I leave these open questions for your consideration.
Below you will find an explanation of what I am suggesting. Please read it very carefully. If you do consider joining, please bear in mind that this is very real.
No Villain will ever go easy on you. Neither will I.
A Fight For Your Life
Essentially, this is one big invitation and interest check. My idea is simple -- fight against Jasmine. Let me warn you, though: this will be different from any kind of spar you might've read about or had with her. Here, in this scenario, Jasmine is coming at you to kill you. She will not hold back and she will injure you. She wants to scare you and she wants to break you. This is who you will fight against. All in the hopes that you will learn what it is like to be in a real life and death scenario and how to combat it.
Currently, we have five teachers who have agreed to support this 'extra curricular activity.'
- Red Horn - She will be responsible for stopping Jasmine should she deem her going too far.
- Hellhound - She, too, will assist in stopping Jasmine should things escalate.
- Witch Doctor - She is on stand-by for immediate medical aid should any of the students get injured severely.
- Yellow Jacket - Regrettably, Yellow Jacket is not able to oversee this due to her own condition, and despite supporting this endeavor, urges students to not take this lightly.
- Serperior - He has also voiced his agreement so long as the volunteers are aware of what they are getting themselves into.
Any and all students are welcome to participate. Should you wish to join, all you need to do is specify under this post your name, class, and what your experience is in any real combat scenario.
Also, please note -- if you're having reservations about, say, having your first year student join, this is only a sign-up. I'm using this to determine the structure of these fights. Should, say, three freshman join, I might have them go against Jasmine all at once. And if, at the end of the day, you want to back out after signing up - that's totally okay as well.
