Sword maiden, knight, defender of the realm, protector of the innocent. Tragic, lovely, damsel, dainty yet strong, these are the words that consistently describe Roxsenne, but in all honesty her weakness is the fact that she is not a team player. Despite having the occasional help of Avery de Lance, Cons-ante de La Rein, Azazel Moloch and more. Roxsenne has lived a life stranded on the planet Earth with only a small influx of Zeni for her means to return home to her planet Castelle. It is a place now ruled by her uncle Harmut Jace Tuscana-Err and a place where she and many of her fellow Star Knights are not welcome without taking an oath to his allegiance. Her cousin Lucretia Vans Err-Helden is a prisoner and practically all her known family are dead.
But as the black haired, blue greyed eyed woman stares out at the blue sky before her in her glistening steel gray armor she ponders, "How the heck am I to get home now? Especially after the loss of my sword?" There can only be one answer and that is she must take on a woman's job. She must become a tutor, and hopefully not a Teodor. An instructor to a pupil who is willing to listen in on a subject of matter that will help them or is interesting to them. The issue is, one, she does not know anything of value other than martial arts of her planet, and two, she does not know how to teach except in the Teodor manner. They are a new family of royal value and the only reason they are is because they have twenty thousand books on the boring subject of how to build yourself a castle. Now castles are important, however, one can see the issue with having twenty thousand books on the same subject. It indicates they are pack rats and secondly that they can go into a boring amount of detail on methods of finding the best granite in a rock bed.
In the case of Roxsenne, she was a woman who learned from them, and as result gained their boring sense of teaching in the form of martial arts. She remembered back to her last lesson with Azazel Moloch, and even though it was not for money that she sparred with her Teodor-like teaching methods had come out then. She had embarrassed a demoness of all people by making her wear a medicine ball on her stomach. Now she hoped the lady, whom she had met before in her encounter with a strange man named Krow, would be willing to come into the area of Mt. Paozu and learn some things from her. She stepped away from the cliff and climbed the scraggy stone perches of the mountain higher and higher until she was nearly lost in the clouds. The first thing she hoped to teach the woman was how to find her of all things in a dense fog. So she sat herself down in a pile of wet moss on top of a rotting log and waited.

Rylee moves forward along the path, stopping atop a small rock to look out at the view. She had been walking these paths tirelessly (literally) for over an hour, making a mental map (literally) of the area. Her internal clock tells her that it's almost time to meet up with her new friend. Taking one last look at the scenery, she takes flight, headed toward the cliff-side meeting place.
When she arrives, she doesn't see Roxsenne anywhere. Touching done lightly, she takes a quick look around, but can't see, hear, or even sense her friend. "I didn't pass her on the way here, so that means..." Looking around, Rylee can see only one way she must have gone: up. Her vision takes on a yellow tint as she activates her advanced sensors, locating faint remnants of a blur aura. "Gotcha."
She starts up the mountain on foot, keeping close to the aura. She's surprised how easy mountain climbing is, before she reminds herself that her body is much stronger than it used to be, and doesn't tire or need oxygen. Still, when she reaches a tricky bit of climbing, she opts to just fly up to the next ledge, hoping Roxsenne won't mind. However, the fog is getting thicker and heavier, slowing her progress somewhat. Luckily, it doesn't affect her sensors, beyond a slight decrease in range, so she can still follow her friend's trail. In fact, the aura is getting stronger, meaning she's getting closer. She picks up the pace, moving through the rocks and trees with more confidence.
Soon enough, she finds Roxsenne, who appears to Rylee as a clear blue outline in the fog. For her own part, her yellow eyes glow faintly, standing out like tiny lanterns in the dense fog. Rylee moves forward, not knowing if her friend can see her. "I found you!"

Roxsenne stood up from her log as someone in the fog shouted, "I found you!" the voice sounded like Rylee's so she stepped through the fog and told her, "Good job, but before we begin training I need you to do something for me. In return for my training you to get stronger I would like you to pass on some useful knowledge to me. For example, some good tips on money, an amazing technique you know, etc. only then with this transfer of knowledge can we both really get stronger."
She gave her a thumbs up and pulled out a blue and white capsule with lightweight training weights inside, "For this session, I will be giving you my training weights. They are black armbands or leg bands you can easily strap to your ankles or wrists, so please enjoy them and strap them on. Once you do, then let out all your energy at once so I can find out what we can work with here."
She smiled at the reddish brown haired android, and noticed the tightly wound bun in her hair. The woman's yellow eyes with golden pupils were a bit strange now that she saw them in the day time, but her sense of fashion fit in right with the training session since she wore a plain white skirt with silver choked embedded with sapphire and boots. Frowning a bit though she poked at the cloth material of her skirt and ordered, "Hike up your skirt or tear it up at the bottom a bit. It will only get torn and become a problem in this training session I feel."
The woman was only an inch taller than her, but what Roxsenne remembered of her energy signatures in her last encounter, it made her feel as though she could handle Rylee with ease. Rylee, if she remembered correctly, was only at a base power level of two thousand in their last tall together. She was likely now a bit stronger, however, her power would likely never put her over six to ten percent of Roxsenne's current level of power. Although it was a satisfying feeling she could completely control the outcome of their training such occasions always had surprises. And because of this, Roxsenne knew she could not just go and simply use her power at full force like she had during her time with Azazel a while back. Though the fight had been fun if she used that kind of power from then on her Rylee would be torn to shreds if she was not careful and Roxsenne did not want to be responsible for that.

Rylee thinks for a moment on what kind of information she can exchange. When Roxy reveals the training weights, she has an idea. Her hands glow with her white-gold aura, a similar aura surrounding the bands. She pulls the bands to her, deciding to show off a little by also pulling an fallen tree toward her. "Well, I can use my Ki powers to physically manipulate objects from a distance. And no matter how much money you carry with you, always be sure to have an emergency source hidden on your person." She tosses the tree up and over her head, causing it to land behind Roxsenne. She grabs the training weights, dispelling her telekinesis.
She decides to metaphorically strike two birds with one stone, and tears the hem of her skirt to give her more maneuverability. She ties the training weights around her ankles, moving around experimentally to test the weight and see how well she can move. "Well, I just increased and hindered my ability to move. Anything else I need?" She looks at her clothes, then sighs. "...I could use pants."

"That is some amazing power," Roxsenne muttered as she watched Rylee pull a log towards herself without even touching it. The girl then proceeded to explain her powers after she put on Roxsenne's training bands and tossed the log over Roxsenne's head her own power.
The young knight jumped in fright and said, "Watch yourself there!" before looking down at the ripped skirt Rylee had torn and saying, "I don't think there's anything else you need to worry about. The weights though they ultimately will decrease your ability to move won't after you start actually using them. I honestly also believe you won't need pants either."
She did not want to say it directly to her, but the woman's curvy, tanned thighs were quite the spectacle to see. So much so that it caused her to blush. She prayed that Rylee would not find this odd as she walked up to her and said, "Please allow me to feel your stomach muscles. I intend to have you simply do squats for now, but I need to make sure you won't overexert yourself."
She reached out her right hand, hoping Rylee would also not get mad at trying to touch her belly, and intended to feel if she had any muscle there. Rylee looked rather thin and fit enough for the intense workout that Roxsenne had planned but she wanted to make sure. A knight's work out, a real work out, usually lasted for four hours, if a man, and two, if a woman on Castelle. This was because those who trained squires among Caballye on the planet Castelle found this to be the optimal period of workout time for a proper warrior of the Caballye race. Any more, or any less time spent on this, and one would either overexert themselves or not get in enough training at all.

"Oh, okay." Rylee lets Roxsenne feel her stomach. It seems kind of strange, but she won't question her friend's methods. But why is she blushing? This must be more awkward for her than it is for me. Roxy doesn't feel any obvious muscle, but Rylee's stomach is smooth and firm.
"I don't think you'll need to worry about overexertion. I don't really get tired or sore like most people. A nice perk of my body, I guess."

"Are you sure, you look by all means human to me, but I think you said you were not so I assumed you must be an alien. There have been a quite a few non-humans I have run into on my stay here but no life form that I have met has not been human nor alien. Well, there is one exception, but she has strange powers. That Azazel Moloch does; I think she's a demon or she has indicated she is to me." Roxsenne answered as she pulled her hand away.
Her blush disappeared and she quietly thought, "If she's not human nor alien is she demon?" Then said to her, "I apologize for touching you in such a way, but I needed to check if you had enough muscle developed along your torso for my training session. Otherwise, you could really hurt yourself. I've just never really touched a woman like that so I hoped it was okay for me to do so."
She gathered her composure though, turned, and then pointed at the log Rylee had moved earlier stating, "You moved this with some kind of mental ability you said. Now I want you to toss this as far as you can. Try to toss it somewhere it won't destroy anything though please since the peasants on this planet shall not like it."
She looked back at her pupil and then crossed her arms waiting to see what Rylee would do. Hopefully Rylee could lift the log with physical power and send it soaring through the air. That would mean good things for Roxsenne since she would not have to do much basic training to get her setup for a proper spar.

Rylee nods, thinking it over. So far, this was mainly a physical test, seeing what she could do. Roxsenne seemed a little nervous, like she'd never done this before. "It's fine. Let's see what I can do, shall we?"
She looks at the log, deciding to just use her physical strength. She is able to lift it over her head without any problems. So she doesn't cause any undue destruction, she throws it staight up, putting a slight spin on it. She steps back, standing beside Roxsenne, putting her shield up around both of them just in case it comes down on them.

When Rylee threw the log into the air Roxsenne watched it soar and immediately jumped up into the air the moment it started coming back down on top of them. She was about to extend her fist and crash through Rylee's shield to break it but the log slammed into this wall of energy first and splintered into a million pieces. Roxsenne landed on the ground a moment later and told her, "Good job, clearly you have mental and physical strength equal to that of an average fighter."
She smiled at Rylee. Then she walked over to her and pat her on the right shoulder. Roxsenne blushed again while feeling the supple muscle of the woman's shoulder blade and pondered, "Is it okay for my kind to follow in love like this?"
She slapped herself on the forehead and immediately said to her trainee, "Take your physical prowess and show me what else you can do. Find me a boulder anywhere on this mountain and drag it here. Then simply turn it into dust. That is all."

Rylee smiles happily at the compliment and affectionate shoulder pat. But, seeing Roxy slap her forehead, Rylee wonders if she did something wrong. Maybe I'm just showing off too much? Roxsenne doesn't allow her much time to wonder about it, though. "Take your physical prowess and show me what else you can do. Find me a boulder anywhere on this mountain and drag it here. Then simply turn it into dust. That is all."
Rylee gives a sharp salute. "Roger!" She flies up, surveying the area from the air. After flying around for a bit, she has a pretty good map of the area, and soon locates a suitable boulder. She lands beside the large rock, which is a little over half her height. She knows the best way to take it to get back to Roxy, so the main problem is "reducing it to dust". She gets behind the rock and starts pushing it, rolling it along the path. She is happy to see that the training weights aren't hindering her as much as she thought. As she rolls it back, she thinks over how she'll destroy it.
When she finally returns to Roxsenne, she thinks she's worked something out. "I'm back! I'm sorry, but I don't really know how to weaponize Ki or any special attacks. So I'll just have to smash this thing the old-fashioned way. Mostly." Her left hand glows gold, as does the rock, as she wraps it in her telekinesis. Channeling her Ki into her other hand, she attacks the boulder along the various faults and structural weaknesses she had detected while moving it. Her telekinesis holds it together, allowing her to exploit the same faults repeatedly. Eventually she stops, dispelling her telekinetic grip, and the rock crumbles into gravel at her feet. "Oh... not exactly dust, but not bad, right?" She chuckles nervously, looking at the ground in embarrassment.

Roxsenne watched her lovely new student take off into the air with confidence to find the rock she needed. She hoped she would bring back a large one, and indeed did, after pushing one about half her size back over to where Roxsenne stood. Watching the woman wrap the rock in telekinetic energy, Roxsenne felt fine that she was using her power to destroy it in such a manner, however, when it came out as a pile of gravel frown formed on her face.
"You need to make the bits smaller, but it's not bad. Crush those pieces into tinier bits and think about squeezing a lemon or orange when you do that." Roxsenne instructed as she drew her sword and pointed it at Rylee. "Once done you're done with that please come over here." She plunged her sword into the earth and did so wit such great force it created a small tremor. Then she sat down and waited for Rylee to complete her task. The woman seemed quite skilled already, but that was probably because she hinted at being not human an android.
Roxsenne clasped her hands together pressed them to her lips while pondering, "Do androids think about sex or gender? Just how machine like is this lady before me? I've got to know to train her properly." It made Roxsenne nervous that she was tempting Rylee already with strange innuendos through her words and actions. She had not wanted to move this fast, but the girl's physical beauty was beyond compare and her power was great too for her eyes. She was doing all she could to hold back proclaiming her love for a robot.

Roxsenne is slightly disappointed, but it's not as bad as Rylee feared it would be. She jumps in surprise when Roxy's sword causes an impact tremor, but it encourages her to finish her task of crushing rocks. She crouches down in front of the small rocks, crushing them in her hands. This is much simpler, as they are smaller and not as strong as her hands. Although she envisions squeezing a lemon, it feels a lot more like crushing cereal in her hands. (Don't ask why she knows what that feels like.)
Once that is done, she rises back up, triumphantly dusting off her hands. "There! One boulder reduced to dust!" She gives the dust pile a little kick, scattering it. She heads over to where her friend is sitting down, eyeing the sword curiously. "So what's on your mind now?"

She looks up into Rylee's eyes and blushes after her student finishes her task. While she ponders over how to answer she decides to tell the truth a bit. "I think the thing on my mind is you. You're not exactly an organic being so this power you're producing is coming to you mechanically allowing you to be far stronger then normal I ponder if I can teach a lady as beautiful as you or if this power of yours has limits because..."
She stands and steps into Rylee's personal space pressing her armored body against hers. "I'm not sure if I love that about you or not. You're the first being I've really ever known without limits I can sense. I'm trying to now, but I just cannot. What can I teach you?" Her mind attempts to focus on Rylee No. 6's energy but all she can feel coming from her is the temporary energy she has expended from her parts to destroy her target.

Whatever Rylee had been expecting Roxsenne to say, it hadn't been that. Sure, the bit about not being entirely sure about her abilities made sense. Even Rylee wasn't sure of everything about herself. But the unexpected part was... "B-beautiful?" Rylee herself is blushing now, her face becoming paler, oddly. "Oh, come on, Roxy! Don't joke around like that!" She leans back slightly, since Roxsenne is about a head shorter than her, and it makes it a little easier to see her.
"I mean... you can't really sense my limits because I don't utilize Ki the same way as normal humans do. I'm not exactly an expert, I was still a student, really, but my body doesn't channel Ki, per se." She calms a little, almost ready to launch into a description of her systems, but she gets the feeling Roxy isn't interested in technical details right now. "I assure you, my body does have limits. I can be pushed to those limits, and even exceed them temporarily, but unless I'm actively using Ki, my body is at rest. To put it very simply, Ki is like fuel. I can increase the strength of the fuel, by training as exercising and all that, or I can increase the power of the engine, by upgrading or replacing my internal hardware."
Her eyes literally start glowing as she looks at Roxsenne. "If you want to know what you can teach me... you're a knight, right? You go out, serving a cause and doing what's right, protecting and helping how you can? That's something you can teach me! Teach me to be a knight, so I can do some good in the world!" She looks away, her face paling in embarrassment again. "I mean... if that's okay with you. I know I'm not exactly a skilled fighter or anything, but I don't have a lot going for me right now anyway..."

"You sound like a complicated lady," Roxsenne said with a chuckle. She notices Rylee's eyes glowing after her explanation of her powers and abilities and see s that there's a strong desire for her to become a knight. Blushing even more then usual she realized this android was committed to working with her.
Her lips curl in great pleasure and she says, "You'll need to go find yourself a sword, so if you can please do that since knight needs that, however, before you do you'll need the strength to wield a proper one so for now come and wrestle with me."
She beckoned Rylee with a flick of her left wrist and thought, "There's only one way to get a hug out of this girl and increasingly show my feelings for her, if that's what I'm suddenly having, I must wrestle her to the ground." Roxsenne really had trouble understanding it, but for some odd reason she loved this woman. It would not be acceptable on her home world probably, but Roxsenne promised to go home there and make that possible if she could. For now though she had to make sure her squire was up to it.
