Carolyn didn't like it one bit. Tomas was letting himself get distracted and distractions could lead to death. It was time to do something about it.

Folder in hand she went to find her brother.

	Carolyn wasn't expecting it. She started to move to avoid the leg sweep and the elbow caught her in the thigh. The leg buckled and her balance was gone. She was totally open for a take down move. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He's more than a little surprised, and likewise positive that will never work again. Still, he's going to take advantage, he goes for the ankle lock, to try and force her to submit if he can get the hold in place. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Carolyn knew what he was trying to do and kicked at his groin with her free foot. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	That sends him staggering back, dropping to one knee, clutching at his groin with a wince of pain. He hadn't seen that kind of dirty trick coming. "Stalemate, as usual?" he finally asks, as he's recovering his feet. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Carolyn climbed to her feet. "Sure." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	With a bit of a wince from the kick, he moves towards her to offer her a hand up. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Carolyn took the offered hand and got her feet under her. "Thanks." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Of course... no matter what else happens, or who else... you're my sister first. I will always be here for you." he promises, still clasping hands. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	manasa 2014-03-20 09:40 pm UTC (link)
	Carolyn nodded. "I know. I'm here for you." Even if he had bad taste in women. "I'm going to head out for Indian. Want me to get you something?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Or I can come with you. Its been a while since we figured out our own goals, and assessments on the team so far." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Carolyn smiled. "It has been awhile. Sure. Let me shower quickly." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Twenty five. I need some time to dry my hair." Carolyn wasn't a girly girl, but she hated going out with wet hair. It took a little to get it dried to where it didn't bother her. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Not a problem he really had. "No problem. Twenty-five minutes then." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	manasa 2014-03-20 10:21 pm UTC (link)
	Carolyn nodded and headed for the shower. Workouts always made her hungry and she was looking forward to some time out with Tomas. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Getting kicked around has done wonders for reminding him that he really did miss his sister. The Bat was a nice break, and would continue to be a part of his life - but this was family and purpose. He goes about getting ready with a purpose, looking forward to making up for the missed time. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	manasa 2014-03-20 10:34 pm UTC (link)
	Carolyn was ready thirty minutes later. She went with a dress and a pair of heels. Just because she could kill someone with her bare hands didn't mean she had to give up being a girl. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He's dressed up for a decent night out. Their life and parents have left them with some money, and certain types of establishments are just better for discussing business. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Carolyn was looking forward to going out. She was beginning to feel as if the walls were closing in. A night out would do wonders. "Ready?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anti_venom 2014-03-20 11:34 pm UTC (link)
	"I'm all set." he agrees. He's gotten out and relaxed a fair bit lately. He tends to forget how rarely his sister does that when he's not along. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Come on then," she said. "It's been awhile." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He heads out for the car. "Sounded like you had a place in mind. Just let me know where, unless you want to drive?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	manasa 2014-03-25 09:56 pm UTC (link)
	"There's a decent place just a few blocks from here." Carolyn smiled a little. "I'll drive." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	anti_venom 2014-03-25 10:13 pm UTC (link)
	"Sounds good." he agreed, heading for the passenger seat and tossing her the keys. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Carolyn caught the keys and climbed into the driver's seat. She started the car and pulled out as soon as he was inside. "Mom called. Said she would be in the area next week." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
