Red began to follow Alex to apologize for his burst of anger. It wasn't the boy's fault after all. He heard the commander yell for the men to head to the fields. Shit.... Guess my apologie will have to wait Red thought bitterly as he turned and made his way to the field.
He quickly found Thor and stood next to him. Thor raised his brow at him once more.
"Don't give me that look... I'll deal with Alex later. Besides training will take the edge off." Red said plainly although he still felt guilty for taking his sudden burst of anger out on Alex.
A man helping Commander Grayson began passing swords out to the seven of them. Wait seven? There were eight of them all together but Alex was no where to be seen.
Stupid kid... He shouldn't be so senstive, especially if he wants to be a guard Red thought his anger flaring again.
"Alright we will be practicing with the sword. The eigh-. Wait where is the Alex? Wasn't he at breakfast?" Commander Grayson said looking at each of the men.
No one seemed to want to talk about the altercation that had happened moments before, either out of fear of what Red would do or not wanting to involve themselves. Red was perfectly happy with the silence. It was the kid's choice not to show up.
"No matter, one of you will spar with me then." Grayson said. Red could feel Thor's gaze on him. He ignored the side glances, still facing the Commander.
"Alright, pair up and give it your best shot, we'll see what needs improvement later."
Red turned to Thor figuring no one would dare face one of the primes. Sword in hand Red twirled it a few times to inspect the balance of the blade. Satisfied Red got in a stance to begin the fight.
"Begin!" Grayson cried. The clang of metal on metal echoed on the field.
With a cry Red began his attack. Red swiped furiously with the blade, Thor trying his best to block the onslaught of attacks. Thor began to lose ground, backing up to dodge the more vicious swipes that Red unloaded apon him. Thor jumped back, sucking his gut in as Red changed up his slashing motion into a powerful jab that would have more than likely impaled the warrior had it landed. Red chuckled as he twirled the blade again taughting the Asguardian.

You can't stop crime. That's what you never understood. I'm controlling it. You wanna rule them by fear, but what do you do with the ones who aren't afraid? I'm doing what you won't, I'm taking them out.
