Learning how to DODGE!
Vortex: Okay, I think you have the basic techniques for falling down. Now, it is time to dodge!
Taylor *bruised and leaning on her good ankle*: Yay...
Vortex: Hey, if you can dodge when tired, you can dodge when fresh. Your normal power set gives you a cheat for this, but the basics are the basics for a reason. So I'm going to go with tennis balls to start things off.
Taylor *scowling*: Understood. I've got this!
*Four hundred tennis balls thrown by hand, six hundred by machine, and an additional two hundred launched by a combination of both later.*
Taylor *twitching as a pile of limbs on the ground*: I don't got this.
*Several years later*
Vortex *looking down a shaft filled with pastel colors and machine gun like constructs*: I believe that your level of skill with falling has progressed enough to try this exercise. Remember, they will be firing hardened sugar so it will still hurt if you get hit.
Taylor *looking down the same shaft*: Er, Vortex, can we talk about this? I don't want to get candy in my hair.
Vortex: Nonsense! Think of it as extra motivation! If you can dodge while falling, you can dodge while on level ground. Now off you go!
*Without warning, Vortex pushed Taylor down the shaft, setting off a round of candy-filled explosions*
Taylor: Oh god, everything is sweetness! Horrible, horrible sweetness........!
*Several more years later*
Taylor: Are you fucking insane?!?
Vortex: Taylor, you wound me! It's not like I'm having you dodge raindrops (yet).
Taylor: What was that last part?
Vortex: Never you mind. Now, if you can dodge through the evil army without getting hit, you can dodge one on one with no problem. Have fun!
Taylor: Shit!
*And thus Taylor ran across the fields of twisted evil, Minas Tirith prominent in the distance, before running back.*
*Finally, several more years later*
Taylor: You FUCKING SUCK!
Vortex: Taylor, you wound me! After all, if you can dodge a micro asteroid storm in a space suit, you can dodge anything in an atmosphere. Now get to it!
