[...As Drachir shuffled his feet towards the Swaggers after a tough battle against the undead scum of the Graveyard, he comes across a small group of soldiers. Drachir then remembers about the weekly training that he had been told about a few nights before.
Drachir sighed, knowing he would be getting a good night's sleep tonight...] After both the Cove and Vesperian attendees had greeted one another and after a number of jokes towards Hoagie (who was not there at this time) had been told, it was decided that Cove itself would be a suitable location for this week's training and all that were attending were quickly shoved through one of those magic gate thingies and before our eyes, the wonderful city of Cove emerged.
Once the group had reached Cove, we were instructed to march to the lush fields of Cove!
'Aha!' I thought. 'This week Escaflowne will be teaching us all about maintaining the standard of living for cities such as Cove, with some vegetable growth lessons!'
I was sharply proved wrong as Escaflowne bellows,
'3 vs. 3 vs. 3 vs. 3!' This was then followed by a number of short, but fun-packed, rounds of team training.
Commander Escaflowne allowed the group to catch their breath and moved swiftly onto the main event!
Capture The Flag!
The rules were simple: Two teams, two bases, two flags. The team to move the opposing team's flag to their own base wins.
Excitement was seen on the faces of every man (and lass).
Let the battle commense!
Once two tiring defeats in Capture The Flag had ceased, a final excersise was to be completed - Last Man Standing!
Unfortunately, because of the 'no hiding' rule, I refuse to do any sketches for the last man standing! So there! However, I can tell you that the victor was....errm....
