||OOC: You're telling me to post? Geeze! You posted less than an hour ago!||
Lokai watched as the boy made his way down, half expecting him to pee his pants as he went. It was almost humiliating to watch such a cowardly display. This would have to be dealt with. Fears were ok, allow fear and emotion to control oneself was not. Lokai saw the boy finally touch the ground as the girl in his arms spoke softly. He couldn't help but smile at the feeble request.
"Sure. Let this be a lesson in trust. Do you trust me to get you down safely? If so, wrap your legs around my waist and hold onto my shoulders and neck tight." He moved the girl to where her chest faced his so she could hold on. He didn't doubt the girl would trust him enough to go down with him.

||Try 12-ish hours. . . lol||
Tali nodded slowly, but couldn't make herself move for a long moment. Somehow, the thought of holding tightly onto someone as intimidating as Lokai was more frightening than the thought of falling off the top. Beyond that, it was downright awkward. She'd never done more than shake hands with any man besides her father, and now she was expected to cling to one? Tali groaned inwardly at the thought. Still, she managed to force herself to wrap her arms around his neck, and her legs around his waist. She resisted her impulse to pull away or squeeze her eyes shut, and waited for him to take her down.

Lokai held the girl tight then began the slow climb down, making sure to keep his midsection far enough away from the wall to keep the girl from getting hurt. He had thought about teleporting down, but that would have not only been very traumatic for the girl, but likely a bad example to the students as well. He knew the wall face. He had climbed it many times in setting up the perfect wall for each of the students. His hands and feet deftly grabbed for each hold as he made his way down, his midsection thrust away from the wall. When Lokai had finished climbing, he set the girl down and whispered in her ear, "There are plenty of other people who can go to the infirmary as well. It doesn't always have to be you." He pulled his face away and allowed a genuine smile before standing. "Someone, get over here and assess the situation. If she needs help, take her to the infirmary. The rest of you, give me fifty laps around this arena. If any of you get slow, I will turn the paint-ball guns on and aim them all down. Understood? Now go!"

Tali nodded feebly at Lokai's joke and kept her gaze locked on the ground. She was waiting for him to tell her she had failed, and that she would have to wait for the next training session to try again. When he merely gave the other trainees orders to run, and for someone to take her to the infirmary, she jerked her gaze upward, surprised. Would she be permitted to continue, then?
"W-with all due respect, sir," she said softly, barely able to fight her impulse to cower before him, "I think Enoch needs more help than me." She looked over at the boy, who was now running with his arm pressed tightly against his midsection. "I. . . I think I'm fine anyway. May I just run with the others?" In truth, her head was pounding in her skull and she felt certain that if she had anything left in her stomach, she would throw up again. She had one hand pressed against the cool wall beside her, for stability, but perhaps once she started running she would be fine. Besides, she was tired of special attention, and just wanted to do what she could to impress Lokai so she could pass training and become a Junior Agent.

Natalie ran over to where Tali was leaning against the wall, "Come on." she said, offering her hand to the girl, "Are you going to the infirmary?" she asked, raising her eyebrows, "I can take you if you want."
Turning to the others, who were hovering around, she shouted, "Get running, now!" she glared at them, waving her hand around the course. "Hurry, 50 laps is nothing to laugh about." she said, "If you want to go to bed tonight, you'd better get started." she knew she had exagerated quite a bit, but everyone was so slow it might be true.

Lokai was shocked at himself for having done nothing about Enoch. Enoch was clearly in pain as his arm fell limp at his side, but would he admit it. Lokai thought for a minute as Natalie rushed at the opportunity to help Tali. Finally he spoke, expecting the girls would take care of one another. "Enoch, are you hurt? Do you need to go to the infirmary?" Lokai began, wondering if he was bating the boy. "If you need to go, then do, otherwise you are welcome to run... only if you can keep up though." Lokai was now sure that he was bating the boy. I don't want to hurt him, but he has asked to be treated as invincible...

Enoch slowed as Lokai approached him. His arm was killing him, though he would never have admitted that willingly to a member of the Ukwtakun. His immediate response to Lokai's words were to lash out, but he reminded himself that he was supposed to be a normal teenage boy, not a trained agent. To say that he was fine and he could keep up without a problem would only arouse suspicion, and he'd done enough of that on the track yesterday. No normal boy would be able to withstand such pain. He stopped entirely and faced the man, though stared down at his limp arm rather than Lokai when speaking. "I think it may be dislocated, sir. It. . ." he gritted his teeth and forced the next words out of his mouth, despite how much he didn't want to ". . . really hurts, sir."

Lokai grabbed the boys arm, making sure to apply pressure but not extreme amounts, checking for a reaction. "Are you sure?" Lokai proceeded to walk around the boy, "It's not like you to get hurt that easy..." Lokai stopped and looked at the group running around the track. "Well, I guess you can't be invincible all the time. Head to the infirmary and report back as soon as you can. Hope you don't miss enough that I'll have to drop you from the program. Lokai's mind raced back and forth arguing whether or not he ought to be acting this way, but once set on a course it was hard to reverse and not cause suspicion. He disregarded the boy, not waiting for a decision and began running with the group. "Let's go, kids! This isn't play time. I want to see someone actually running!"
