Anya hated war games. That's why she had picked up a bow despite it's less favorable reputation amongst the Legion. She didn't like fighting and she didn't like fighting up close and personal even more. She also hated that ridiculous feud between cohorts and how her cohort was supposed to be comprised of losers that you were allowed to beat up if only 'encourage' them to 'shape up'. That had been exactly the kind of thinking the son of Mars from First Cohort had used when he had literally cut her down as he had stormed the wall of the fort she and couple more archers were defending.
Her bow had been cut in half and she had a really nasty cut over her right shoulder that stopped short at her chest. The worst part for Anya had been the blood on her hand once she tried to press her wound down. It was her own blood running down her arm and soaking her sleeve. It had been a cause for freezing in place and hyperventilating. She had been more or less carried to the infirmary as if she was some sort of statue and had been left at a stretcher as her fellow legionnaires had gone of in search of a healer.

I, Anastasia Gregorovich, would like to be considered for a mission because my best friend is going and I'd rather see her return. Plus I think it would be good to have someone with decent long range skills, ice powers and two spoken languages under their belt. Thank you for your consideration.

Anya turned to look at the boy who decided to talk to her. She had been just about ready to leave when she realized that Tawny was a no-show. Hearing the bragging of the nearby group about certain 'riding' skills was not exactly what she had in mind for a party. Then again the last party she had gone to was three years ago. At least the one approaching her didn't seem that bad. "Not really. I only came because a friend of mine said she would be here." She replied with an awkward smile.
"Nice to meet you Alex, I'm Anastasia, but people call me Anya." She introduced herself. "Actually this is my first time at a demigod party and an actual party in like, forever. So I'm not sure what I was expecting."

Anya chuckled at Tawny's excitement about all of the winter sports. "Well if I didn't know any better I'd say we are half-sisters." She commented on that and paused to think about Tawny's suggestion. "That's.... not a bad idea in fact. If I'm allowed to bring my dad over to coach me. There's only so much I can do practising by myself." Yes maybe that could work out. Plus she really missed her father. While New Rome was safe, wifi was not a commodity she had all the time. Free time was also precious and Anya didn't have much of it either. It had been a while since she had spoke to him. But she hadn't heard anything bad on the news about him, so she knew there was no reason to worry about.
Another fan entered the room and waved at them. A familiar jersey indicated another Ice hockey fan to Anya. "Well that makes three who want to see Ice hockey. We will be safe if it comes to a battle for posession over the remote." She pointed out with a smile and stuffed her face with more chips, sighing in pleasure as she savored them. She briefly looked over at the baby carrots bag. Dang that took her back to the days she trained and baby carrots and various over stuff were her only snacks. For the most part at least, her dad was not as cruel as to completely deny her the guilt pleasures of being a kid.
Her neck arched so she could see over her armchair's back as a boy spoke. Another blond. Looking around the room she briefly wondered if it was a blonde thing to like the winter Olympics like that. She shook her head at the thought. That was ridiculous.

Anya chuckled and reached for a bag of chips. It was her guilty pleasure and one she never got to experience too much while she trained for the Olympics. "Yeah, that's what my dad always says, but I didn't get to go big or go home, so I'm perfectly fine with cheering for Team Canada this time around. There's always next time." She sounded optimistic but she knew that, unless she got out of the Legion, her chances of competing in the Olympics were non-existent while she was at her prime age.
Stuffing her face with a handfull of the savoury snacks, she was afteral very hungry from her training, she looked at the screen, until she was able to talk again without being a total pig. "Yes, figure skating to be precise. But Ice hockey games are my next best thing to watch. I guess you want to catch the snowboarding?"

Anya laughed in good spirits. "I could go the easy version or the geeky version about it, but it all boils down to keeping to your center and not to flap about." She began as she went into a series of slow spins as she gradually folded her hands towards her chest. "Of course hard work and how much speed you have when you go into the spin is important." Her speed increased as her hands and feet were drawing closer together and she did a simple upright spin before finishing to a halt.
"Once you get the mechanics down, then it's all about practise, practise aand practise." She said, shaking her head in sync with the three repetitions of the word prarctise. "So it goes kinda like this. You get some speed in." She began accelerating, but nothing too serious seeing as this was just a quick demonstration. "Then you go into the spin and keep your hands onto your chest and try not to get dizzy when you come out of the spin." She said a little louder as she had put some distance between her and Tawny. Halting in place after five quick rotations, she faced Tawny with her arms extended in a 'tada!' fashion. "Got it?"

I watched Pompeii (Bastille) burn again. But it didn't make a difference.
Why did history repeat itself?

It had been a while since Anya had been at a party. Training hard was sure a way to kill your will for partying and she had heard that New Rome's parties are pretty wild. The daughter of Chione was not a party - animal and she knew practically no one from the fourth cohort. The only reason she was there was because Tawny had lowkey invited her there. As she entered, a weird smell filled her nostrils and she had to wonder what that was as she had never smelled something quite like it before. The music was nice and she looked around trying to find Tawny as she didn't know the group of girls a bit farther away who were passing around some kind of alcohol. With her friend nowhere in sight, Anya just stood there awkwardly, fiddling with the bracelets and debating whether she should just go for a walk instead. Anya's outfit |

Free time at long last! Anya had done her drills and then some as she had just returned from iceskating practise, tired but extremely happy she was finally getting back into a somewhat normal schedule. Taking a look at her wristwatch, she realized it was time for the Olympics to start and she made a beeline for the recroom instead of her bunk at the barracks. She wouldn't miss it for the world. She would've probably make it in the Canadian team if she hadn't been attacked by a cynocephalus, but what was done was done and all she could do now was root for the team Canada.
Still in her training gear, she entered the room to find someone else already there watching the show. And that someone was decked into full USA cheering uniform and had an impressive stash of snacks to boot. "Well it's nice to see other people are excited about the Winter Olympics. You took Olympics cheering to a whole new level Tawny." She said mid-cheering and melted into one of the armchairs with a heavy sigh of relief, her sports bag carelessly dropped next to her as the daughter of Chione allowed the tension of the day wash away.

Anya rolled her eyes as he fidgeted and felt downcasted for his powers with rainbows and colors. "Whoever told you that is an idiot. You can be creative with your powers and be useful. There's more to life than the legion you know? And even the most narrow-minded soldier feels better with a little color and art in their lives even if they won't realise it." She told him confidently as she watched the last colors of the miniature rainbow fade from her hands.
Fiddling with her ipod, Anya smiled as Austin mentioned her ice powers, finding the pun rather fitting in this scenario "Yeah it is pretty cool, though I would prefer it didn't come with cool skin even in summer. It has freaked out my friends and schoolmates one too many times." She looked at the lake once more as it was now turning dark enough to not be able to see properly. "I'm still figuring this out though. I don't know what I can do, other than maybe freeze a soda without any help from a refridgirator. Probably explains why I'm so good at iceskating, besides hard work."

Anya twirled around to face Tawny with a curious smile at the nickname. "Ice girl?" She questioned before shaking her head and skating backwards, making circles around Tawny as if sizing her up. "Well, since you haven't fallen on your butt yet, I would say you already have a good basis here. How about you try and spin once on your axis, like this?" She suggested and did a slow spin on her axis, hands folding in as she turned her back on Tawny and then extending again as she faced her friend once more, all in one fluid motion.

Anya smilled a bit dazzed as Tawny compared her to a Zamboni. "I didn't know I could do it up until now." She said and took the offered hand, getting back on her feet with little effort. It was more like one of those blackouts you had if you stood up abruptly than a full out faint. "I'm fine don't worry. It just needed more control than I originally expected. I'm okay." She said and did a quick spin on her axis, hands spread out once she stopped in a 'see?' manner. "So? Now that the ice is all smooth for us what do you want to do?" She asked her new friend curiously.

As Anya's routine came to a halt, Tawny decided to make her presence known. Panting, Anya gave her a graceful bow and grinned at her new friend. "Thank you Tawny. It was either skating or failling in classes, so I chose skating." She said with a smile as she rested her hands on her knees, trying to catch her breath again. She had forgotten how intense that choreography had been and Legion training was not exactly what she needed in skating.
"That was my preliminary choreography with Pirates of the Caribbean music. I trained for six months nonstop to get it perfect. It had to become muscle memory and dad was adamant about it. It was hard but the results were worth it." She said and suddenly a thought occured to her, what if she used her magic to smooth the ice before the two of them got to skating? It would be a nice opportunity to test her newfound powers. Kneeling down, she placed a gentle hand on the cold surface and closed her eyes, submerging herself in the cool pull of the ice. She could see them, all the cracks she had made on the ice. Every line and every curve. Taking a deep breath she released the cold that had built up on her fingertips and new ice covered the crakcs, making the rink look smooth like glass again.
However the act required more control than what Anya had originally thought and she stumbled as she tried to get up. It had drained her more than she had expected.

Anya watched as Austin turned nervous again. "Okay." She said and wondered if her cold skin was the cause of it. She had to resist the urge to withdraw from him. If there was one part of her powers that she wished she didn't have was that of a cold skin. Even in summer, when everybody else was hot or sweaty, she was cool to the touch. It had freaked out more that a few of her schoolmates back in the day.
Yet as she kept watching, her eyes widened and she gasped in awe. She was left speechless as the shimmering arc connected her palms together. She briefly looked at Austin before her attention sifted to the little miracle that had just happened to be resting on her palms. "No, I haven't." She said in awe. "It's beautiful."
