A Moment Of Peace

"This is the sparring room," Rachel spoke cheerfully as she pressed a finger against the door scanner. 

The metalloid door swung open to reveal a large open space filled with robotic training droids and racks of weapons.

There was even what looked like an obstacle course at the end of the room complete with rotating platforms.

"Very impressive," Sophie whistled appreciatively as she went inside. She made her way to the weapons rack and picked up one of the whips on display.

Sophie ran her fingers along the length of the whip's body and absentmindedly grabbed the hilt using her right palm.

"So how often do you train here?" Sophie asked curiously. Rachel shrugged her shoulders and reached for a sword.

"Not that often… mainly a two-hour session in the morning and then I spend the rest of the day catching up on assignments," Rachel explained lazily.
