He stared down at her, a cold look on his face. "What might that be?"

*simple sparring match. One on one. In the woods, alone. Or with Lucia and Zeke as an audience, if you want. I want a fight not influenced by... well, other influences. I want to see how you fight when you arent being judged by your soldiers. And I want a promise that no hard feelings will grow between us when we do this.*

Her brow furrowed. She honestly didn't like the idea of this.

"What's the point?" He says, his hand still holding Lucia's.

She sighed and said softly, *you seem mad at the world and at yourself. Zeke said fighting is a way for you to let off steam. I want to help you.* she said, completely honest. Almost painfully honest.

She could tell Cas wasn't going to react nicely to that comment.

He frowns, looking down at Lucia. He silently reminds himself to stay calm. He looks down at the girl, clearly annoyed but trying to keep his composure. "I'm fine. Dont bother acting like you know me either." He says in a bored tone.

She replied sadly, *your right. I dont. And thats why I want to do this. So I can get to know you. Tell me this. Zeke said before he disappeared for a decade when he became a slave, he was a criminal kid who stole and gave and was basically Robin Hood. What caused your friendship? Your mate, I get. But what happened that made you so... closed off?*

" don't you think you're getting a bit too personal? You don't know any of us, and we don't know you. "

He stays silent, waiting for her to answer Lucia.
