Family Time for Atlanteans May Include Beatdowns
Well, Derek was really curious as to how things went on the East Coast, and so far all he had seen was interesting. The pizza here was better than it was back home, but the burgers in Cali have the East Coast beat down (although he had yet to try the burger place everyone keeps raving about, the White Castle place). Still, he was about to see the biggest difference of them all: the headquarters of the Avengers.

On his phone he dials Mac. He didn't have the damn codes to get in, after all.

	Crap. Did he screw up? "Well, I think i got here a little early. I'm standing outside of the headquarters and was wondering if you'd let me in." Now he smirks, and even if he can't actually see it Mac'll probably hear it. "I do owe you a beatdown, too." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yes, Highness. You're early. Now you have to stand there looking like a total dork for five whole minutes until I get there so we can give each other those beatdowns." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Uh-huh. See you in five minutes." And Mac hangs up, and five minutes later, he's there, in full uniform sans helmet. "Let's get you inside." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"It is nothing the training room hasn't seen before," Kal said. Her mother had told her stories of "sparring" sessions between Thor and Hercules and the amount of damage they had done to the training room. Improvements to handle such sparring matches had been made over the years.

"Enjoy yourselves and the number for Damage Control is on speed dial."

Kal smiled. "It was nice meeting you, Derek."

	fleetfootmac 2011-09-20 01:04 am UTC (link)
	"Thanks, Kal." And he'll take Derek down to the training room. "So where shall we start?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	childofatlas 2011-09-20 01:10 am UTC (link)
	"Nice meeting you too!" Derek says as his eyes stray downward a bit as Kalypso leaves. "Well now. If the Avengers women all look like that I may well have to join." Derek may be rather smart for his age and the heir apparent to Atlas, but he's still a 16 year old boy. "Oh right! That! Anytime you're ready." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fleetfootmac 2011-09-20 01:17 am UTC (link)
	Mac nods and stretches a bit. Being clever, Derek may notice that there's a bit of water in the suit. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	childofatlas 2011-09-20 01:27 am UTC (link)
	Oh yes, he saw that. And he's not going to react to it. Best to have Mac think he didn't see it.. The water will give him an immediate advantage, but that's not guaranteed if the suit gets broken on him... "All right, lets get to your training room. Time for that whupping you want so bad." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fleetfootmac 2011-09-20 01:28 am UTC (link)
	And soon, they're properly situated in the training room. "Yep. Let's get to it." Mac makes a little 'bring it' gesture. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	childofatlas 2011-09-20 02:30 am UTC (link)
	Derek twists his neck, getting it to crack before going into a neutral fighting pose. The neutral aspect changes in an instant, and Derek comes flying at Mac low, aimed at his knees. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fleetfootmac 2011-09-20 02:31 am UTC (link)
	And up Mac goes, coming down behind him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	childofatlas 2011-09-20 11:15 pm UTC (link)
	Well now, the movement wasn't a surprise, as was the place Mac was trying to go. But here's something he might not expect: Derek freezes, letting his nephew get closer before attempting to grab the incoming leg. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fleetfootmac 2011-09-20 11:16 pm UTC (link)
	And Mac can't quite save his leg from being grabbed, but he can hover for a moment and kick out with the other. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	childofatlas 2011-09-20 11:23 pm UTC (link)
	The mule kick hurts like hell, but Derek holds on to the leg, pulling down while pulling himself up. Now for something that Uncle M showed him: Using his enormous strength, Derek goes for as tight a bear hug as he could muster. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fleetfootmac 2011-09-21 06:39 pm UTC (link)
	Mac's having difficulty getting out of that, and... couldn't be more thrilled. It's great to go all out like this. He focuses on trying not to break the hold, but slip it, going down (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	childofatlas 2011-09-25 04:59 am UTC (link)
	Crap! it's been a while since he fought someone of his strength level, so Derek lets go and backs off a bit. He's keeping and eye on his nephew and glancing about to try to find a direction of attack that would be of benefit. With Mac going downward...Derek flies to the left side a bit and dives down, trying to catch Mac sidelong. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fleetfootmac 2011-09-25 05:58 am UTC (link)
	And Mac turns, but not entirely fast enough. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	childofatlas 2011-09-28 10:33 pm UTC (link)
	Good news: Dereks body blow connects. Bad news: Derek was not at all expecting it himself, as he was trying to set up a feint and now he's out of position. So he goes for a bit of a desperation maneuver, lashing out as he backs up a bit. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fleetfootmac 2011-09-29 12:28 am UTC (link)
	And now, Mac is slightly sore and ready to catch him this time. He knows, what with his uncle's Uncle Ken, that grappling is getting himself into a losing battle. He doesn't mind. It's still not pointless (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Oh shi-! Derek tried to pull back, but he is grabbed and held onto. Normally, he can force his way out of all but a handful within the walls of Atlas but here a lot of the moves his Uncle Ken had taught him would be hard to pull off.

Still, Derek is gonna try. He grabs onto his cousin and tries to twist his body, trying to wrench himself into a better position to get out, like his Uncle showed him.

	fleetfootmac 2011-09-30 01:41 am UTC (link)
	This is why it's handy to put sea water inside the suit: Mac manages to redirect and try to rework the holds in progress, keeping him a little longer, but he can't keep up with Derek for sheer ...wrassling. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	childofatlas 2011-09-30 01:59 am UTC (link)
	Even within the wrasslin', Derek has a huge smile on his face. Still, this is hurting and he has to end it. So, what's something unexpected to do? Derek leans back, as if trying to break the hold, then brings his forehead in quick to smash into MacKenzies face. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fleetfootmac 2011-09-30 02:01 am UTC (link)
	The swearing that occurs is a mixture of multiple solar systems', but Mac has an impressed look behind it as he scurries back off to regroup (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	childofatlas 2011-10-08 01:02 am UTC (link)
	Well, this wasn't going anywhere. They were evenly matched and if this went on for too long the water he spotted would give Mac the long term advantage. So Derek quickly fishes something out of his front pocket. It looks to be a lump of metal, until he starts unfolding it into what appears to be a headband of sorts... (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fleetfootmac 2011-10-08 01:04 am UTC (link)
	"...What the?" Mac stays in a defensive stance a little ways away as he raises an eyebrow. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	childofatlas 2011-10-08 01:13 am UTC (link)
	"Courtesy of Uncle Bob," is all Derek says before he's on the move. He moves fast, but now he begins trying to project a blur around himself. It's about all he knows how to do easily without going straight at his opponents brain. And still the headache is beginning. Stupid headband not being calibrated for human/Atlantean hybrids (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fleetfootmac 2011-10-08 01:15 am UTC (link)
	Mac's not sure where to place him, so he tries just going up,/i>. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	childofatlas 2011-10-08 01:25 am UTC (link)
	And the blur that Derek has made himself has gone up as well, trying to find a decent enough opening to get in a good blow before the headband takes too much out of him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fleetfootmac 2011-10-08 01:26 am UTC (link)
	And Mac takes it hard, wrapping his arms quickly around Derek for support as he starts to fall. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	childofatlas 2011-10-08 01:28 am UTC (link)
	Oh crap! Again! And where Mac is wrapped, it feels like Mac has Dereks neck, which means less air to the brain. So he digs and tries to force Mac off with the headbands imparted power. However, that ground is coming up mighty fast... (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fleetfootmac 2011-10-08 01:33 am UTC (link)
	And they hit it with a Whumph! Mac releases Derek's neck before it becomes something to worry about. Then he just lies there. "So.... good game." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	childofatlas 2011-10-08 01:35 am UTC (link)
	Owww. His head, it feels like a jackhammer is being pressed on his head by a bull elephant. "Hell...hell yes." A few breaths come form the younger man. "Also, ow." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	childofatlas 2011-10-08 02:51 am UTC (link)
	"All right. Shower it is, then," Derek says has he starts trying to pull himself up. It was slow going. Very slow. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	fleetfootmac 2011-10-08 02:52 am UTC (link)
	"Take taht hunk of junk off," Mac insists as he helps him up. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	childofatlas 2011-10-08 02:55 am UTC (link)
	"What hunk of junk? This here, this is gold," Derek says as he gets the headband off of his head. The headache began to alleviate, but the dull throb was still there. (Reply to this)(Parent)
