Ben stood and flexed his arms before shifting his stance and taunting Sarquiss by saying, Come now weakling, don’t tell me you’re this pathetic. Can’t you at least make things a little interesting for me? Maybe show some grit or at least not be finished off by a single counter attack. I’ve had tougher opponents while fishing than you. Now stand up and fight like a man you furred piece of trash. As Ben spoke Sarquiss face began to color a deep red as he said to his helpers, Get this guy and kill him now! I’ll deal the death blow though.
Chop Rotation 1/5
Ben laughed as Sarquiss men hesitated slightly before attacking him as a group, yet he was calm as he cracked his neck and shot to the center of the group before unfurling his scorpion tail while spinning at high speed and using his super human strength causing all of those surrounding him to fly away from him in a wide circle before splashing into the ocean or thudding into the walls or onto the deck as his tail coiled back around his torso beneath his cloak and out of sight as he nodded to Sarquiss and motioned him to go on and attack himself.
Chop Rotation 2/5
Sarquiss seemed flustered as he charged at Ben again before jumping and spinning like a buzz saw while Ben looked on calmly at the approaching blade. Just before Sarquiss reached him though he simply side stepped and let the other man pass by harmlessly as he said, Don’t bore me okay? No sooner had he spoken than Sarquiss suddenly pivoted while spinning and shot back at Ben’s side. Ben pushed off his toes and moved back to allow the man to pass by harmlessly once again as he smiled noting how the other man had pivoted off the bounce.
Chop Rotation 3/5
Ben watched carefully again as Sarquiss pivoted off the next bounce as well and shot towards his chest though Ben simply responded by jumping backwards and preparing to finish the fight in the next exchange. As Sarquiss passed him again he stopped and turned towards Ben before leaping into the air again while spinning like a buzz saw though this time Ben countered in the same manner and once again they were knocked apart from the force after a series of sparks from the blades grinding against one another like saws but this time Ben shifted his angle to attack again.
Chop Rotation 4/5
As he landed he pivoted on his right foot in an instant and shot back towards Sarquiss in a blur even as the other man attempted to counter attack but this time Ben’s faster response had allowed him to descend from above granting more force to his attack than the rising Sarquiss resulting in the latter being knocked sprawling on the deck even as Ben landed and spun backwards directly at Sarquiss torso making the other man panic even as he was struck at high speed with the back of the knife resulting in a resounding crack as the fur wearing invader was sent flying into the ocean.
Chop Rotation 5/5

 She entered and looked around. Kale was unimpressed. "Excuse me?" She called out; a large group of men and women turning on her. They all looked angry. She bit her lip, and cocked her head to the side. "I'm looking for..Hewitt." She said sweetly. A man stood up and looked over her. She wasn't nearly trying yet. "Yeah, what?" He questioned. Kale smiled. "I was hoping you could teach me a few recipes, please?" She questioned. "No, go home girl." He told her waving his hand, his buddies laughed. Kale frowned slightly, and sighed softly. "Leave.." Another said. Kale paused. "I said, Please." She said. She bat her eyelashes. {1/10; Pork Fried Rice} Apparently that's all it took. Everyone seemed to fall victim to her charms. "A-Alright." Hewitt said. "Sure, I'll..." He coughed. "I'll teach you." He said and walked over to him, putting his hand on her lower back. "Right this way." He told her. Leading her into a rather accomplished kitchen. She looked around. "What's first, Boss." She smiled; and he nearly fell over with pleasure. He took her hand. "Fried Rice." He said seriously, like this cooking was the cooking of love. She nodded her head. "Sounds good." She smiled happily. He took out some ingredients. {2/10; Pork Fried Rice} She watched him pleasantly, as he began to point out things. "I think..." He looked over her. "You know enough of what you are doing, that I can stand back, and let you handle it from here. If you need a little push..." He pat her bum. "I'll be here." He told her. She smiled thoughtfully, inwardly she wanted to kill this man -- but his teaching's at this point were much more valuable than a stone statue of a misogynistic pig. She looked over the ingredients, and turned on the stove quickly. She turned to some of the vegetable's and began to chop them quickly. {3/10; Pork Fried Rice} She was fast, he noted as he watched her fluid motions. She poured some oil in the pan; and then was right back to cutting up the vegitables. Her fingers were long, and graceful -- and there was like this motion that was hypnotizing to the way she cooked. It was lovely. She dumped the chopped up carrots, onions, and other vegetables into the pan. They sizzled like crazy -- and he wondered if she had the heat up too high, but she didn't stop; she didn't fix the temperature. He was sure they would burn. There she was though; with a wooden spoon, pushing them around; letting them all touch the pan. {4/10; Pork Fried Rice} He sat back more relaxed, watching her. She was doing good. He was still so into her. He wanted to come up behind her, and wrap his arms around her lithe body -- but he didn't. Kale didn't seem to even notice he was there, as she chopped the pork up, small; but not too small. She checked the vegetable's and sprinkled some salt and pepper. She looked over it a moment and then dumped the rice into the pan. It seared, and it was loud. She paused a moment, and glanced around. She plucked up a bottle of white wine and opened it. He watched her. What would she do? {5/10; Pork Fried Rice} She took a swig, and his eyes widened. She actually tasted it? She poured some into the pan -- and the room wafted with the scent of the white wine, and onions. It was intoxicating. She turned on a second and third pan. The first one oil and salt and pepper went into, the second just oil. The second one, she let those heat. She turned down the heat on the rice, and vegetable mixture, and put a lid on it. She looked back to him, and smiled sweetly; as she dusted her pork with a mixture. He wondered for a moment what was in it, and then Kale spoke up. {6/10; Pork Fried Rice} "Salt, Pepper, Flour, Hint Of Sugar." He nodded his head. She dropped that into the pan with just the oil, and let it sear quickly. Her knife was going on the cutting board and he noticed she was mincing up a piece of garlic. He raised an eyebrow. She dropped that into the first pan. The one with oil, salt and pepper; and let that go. She hummed to herself and pulled out a nice bowl, running her towel through it quickly, and put the towel over her shoulder. He was interested how she was going to pull it all together. Presentation was another important part in his mind. {7/10; Pork Fried Rice} She looked over the pork, and decided to give it a few more minutes before it would be prepared. She picked up the pan of garlic and poured it, and the oil into the fried rice mixture, that was steaming now that she had taken the lid off. She mixed that in, and gave it a light toss. She pulled out some chives, and began to chop them up. They cut up into little rings, that she set aside. She picked up the pork, and dumped it into the rice, and mixed it. Then she began to plate everything. She pour the rice and pork mixture into the bowl. She grabbed some chop sticks, and set them into the mix. {8/10; Pork Fried Rice} Picking up some of the chives she sprinkled them over the rice mixture, and held it out to Hewitt. He looked over it with interest then took it. Kale turned around and began to clean up her mess. Washing the pans, scrubbing them; and smiling to herself. He looked through the rice, and let the smell catch him. It smelled mouthwatering. He took a bite, and nearly moaned from pleasure. It was delicious. Some of the best Fried Rice he had ever had. He took another bite, and kept his eyes on her cleaning. She was quick, throughout and hot as hell. He wanted her. {9/10; Pork Fried Rice} "You seem like you know what you're doing..." He began slowly. "Why come around here for training?" He questioned her with interest. She turned around finishing up the cleaning that she was doing, and leaned against the counter. His eyes raked her body, and he shuddered. "Well, I just heard that you had some pretty amazing recipes, so I thought I'd come around and check them out. "That was the first time I ever made pork fried rice." She told him. "I think I did good." She pondered and looked to him for approval. "Yes, you did fabulous. I think you're ready to move on." {10/10; Pork Fried Rice}

"Next, before we move onto the deep fried dishes, we'll make some Grilled Shrimp." He smiled. "It's quick, and easy; and I think you can handle it." He winked. He helped her get the ingredients out, and looked over them. "This is where you shine, Kale." He told her; with another pat to the bum. "You're good at what you do, you make them however you think they should be made; I am going to finish this rice." He told her with a laugh. Kale nearly backhanded him after the second pat on the butt, but she didn't. If anything, she would send Ben or maybe even Noah to do it. {1/5; Grilled Shrimp} She turned back around; and turned on the grill, letting that heat up. She turned towards the shrimp and pulled out a small knife, to de-vein and butterfly the shrimp. Again, Kale was fast; something that took most people 10 minutes, took her 4. It was a sight to see. She pulled out a bowl and began to look over her ingredient's thoughtfully. Most people, he thought; would have just put the shrimp on the grill and left it to go. No, apparently not Kale. It looked as though she was going to actually do something to the shrimp. That was new, and now he was really eager. {2/5; Grilled Shrimp} She looked into the bowl, and began to mix oil into it with lemon juice. He frowned, was she going to dip them into that? She didn't. instead, she checked the grill and looked at the shrimp. She salted the shrimp, then peppered, then she squirt them with some lemon juice. She took a little bit of oil, brushed the grill; then laid the shrimp down. He watched her. Wondering then what the stuff in the bowl was for. She checked the shrimp, they would cook quickly. She would need to be quick as well. She pulled down some Balsamic Vinegar and poured some into the bowl with the other liquids. {3/5; Grilled Shrimp} Kale whisked it carefully until all of the liquids were combined, and then added some salt and pepper. Another stir and she dipped her pinky in, tasting it. A smile came to her face. Grabbing what looked like a paintbrush, she dipped it into her liquids and brushed the already cooking shrimp with it, them flipped them; and did the same to the other side. She let those go a minute more while she pulled down a square plate. She plated the shrimp, and used a spoon to poor more of the liquid down over the shrimp. Then she chopped some chives quickly, and sprinkles them over the shrimp and the plate. {4/5; Grilled Shrimp} She handed the plate to Hewitt, and then Kale set about cleaning up; what she had just mussed. Kale, it seemed was a very clean person. It probably had to do with her OCPD. She just couldn't stand things being dirty, or not perfect if she could handle it. Hewitt took a bite of the shrimp. Excused himself, and took it out to the boys. "Try these shrimp." He told them. Each one, taking a shrimp and popping into their mouths. There was a collective moan of pleasure. "Damn, She's good." One of them said. "I want her and her cooking." Said another. Kale could hear. She was flattered. {5/5; Grilled Shrimp}

Hewitt returned moments later to find Kale finishing a piece of shrimp she had set aside for herself, the kitchen clean already. "Ready to move on to fried foods?" He questioned her. She nodded. "Good, we'll start with dumplings." He said, "Then move to chocolate." He grabbed the items needed and laid them out. "Got it?" He questioned. Kale nodded, "Yes." He grinned. "Go." Kale sighed and turned quickly, and looked over the ingrediants. She pulled out a mixing bowl, and turned on the deep fryer. She poured some oil into the bowl, then lemon juice from a whole lemon went in. {1/8; Fried Chumplings} To that base she added salt, and pepper for flavor. She paused a moment and began to dice some of her vegetables very small. She then put the carrots, onion, celery, garlic and the olive oil/lemon juice mix into a small hand processor. She churned it, and pulled it out, and put it back into the bowl when it was almost a paste, but it was still almost whole and crunchy. She smiled, and glanced around. "Do you have any pre-cooked chicken?" She questioned him turning around. He blinked a moment, "Uh..Yeah; we should have some roasted chicken in the ice box." He replied. {2/8; Fried Chumplings} Kale went and pulled it out, and looked over it. She began to shred it. Chopping it up a bit. She looked over it, and tasted a piece. Cringing. She shook her head, and added some salt and pepper on it. Kale chopped up the chicken a bit finer, and pulled some wonton wrappers out. She grabbed an egg, a small bowl and some milk. The egg, and milk went into the bowl and she whisked it quickly. Putting another brush into her egg wash. Laying out the wrapper, he watched her. She hadn't reheated the chicken. Normally he would have. Then again, maybe that's why his were always burnt... {3/8; Fried Chumplings} She took her fingers and plucked some of her vegetable mix, and laid it out on the wonton wrapper and put some of the chicken on top of it. She then ran the brush over the rim of the wonton wrappers, and began to fold it over. Kale was pleasant, and he was watching her with interest. She was definitely a chef with potential. She crimped the edges, and laid them on another plate. She smiled; and took out another wrapper, and began to start making the second one. Hewitt, was anxious, he wanted to try them; but his mouth was already watering for the chocolate she'd be making next. {4/8; Fried Chumplings} Kale took her time, but she was still faster than most chefs. She could could make like two of these dumplings in less than a minute, and already had a pile. Finishing off the last of the filling and wrappers, she began to clean up, tossing a touch of water at the oil and listened to it crackle. He grinned, that was an interesting trick she had there. He admired it. He watched her drop a couple in. Then she was grabbing a plate and covering it with paper towels. She paused a moment and then went to the refrigerator, pulling out a few things. Was she going to make a dressing? {5/8; Fried Chumplings} Hewitt opened his mouth, and then decided against it. She obviously knew what she was doing despite her lack of direction from him. She turned the dumplings over, and went back to a small bowl she had begun mixing ingredients in. She poured oil into a mixture of what looked like mayo and tartar sauce. Odd combo. She began to mix it, as the oil took over as an emulsifier. She added some salt, pepper and what he thought was paprika. She gave it another mix, and chopped up some chives and garlic really thin and added that into the mixture. Poking her pinky into the mixture she tasted it. {6/8; Fried Chumplings} "Yum!" She said happily, and began to pour it into a decorative bowl. She switched out the dumplings, putting the cooked ones on the paper towel and letting the next ones begin to fry. She covered the cooked ones, and pulled out a matching plate, setting the sauce into the center, and sprinkling a few larger pieces of chive on top for decoration. She waited, checked the clock; and then put the last batch of the dumplings in. She turned towards Hewitt with a smile. "Almost done!" She told him pleasantly. He nodded a bit, waiting with anticipation. Finally the last batch was done. {7/8; Fried Chumplings} She took the last batch out, and put them on the paper towel, waiting a moment and blotting some of the excess grease off, then sprinkled them with salt and a touch of pepper. Then she arranged them around the bowl on the large plate and turned to Hewitt, happily. He took one, inspected it, dipped it into the sauce and took a large bite. Kale waited nervously, but when she saw the look of pure pleasure on his face she squealed with delight. "Oi! That's amazing!" He said to her, rushing out with the plate to share it with the others. She heard, "Oooh's and Aaah's." {8/8; Fried Chumplings}

He came back in. "Finally it's time for dessert!" His eyes seemed to twinkle with pleasantness. She smiled. "Ah, Yes!" She nodded. "It's Fried Chocolate." He told her, watching her do up the dishes. "It's really simple." He told her. "You think you'll need any direction?" He questioned her, hoping she would say no. He liked tasting her creations. She was good at it, she obviously had a natural knack for cooking, and to be honest with her, or anyone else. He didn't want to spoil that. She turned, finishing up with the last dish she had dirtied. "No," She replied smiling. {1/8; Fried Chocolate} He took out the ingrediants for her, and set them out. She waved. "Go sit, I'll bring it out to you." She told him pleasantly. He nodded and went out of the room quickly. He would be pleasantly surprised, he was sure. She looked around a moment and thought about how she could make this, while changing the oil in the frier. She didn't want her chocolate tasting like Chicken Dumplings. She finished that up, and turned on a pan of water, setting a clear bowl ontop. She began gathering the bars of milk chocolate and opened them up, taking a large knife and began to cut them down. {2/8; Fried Chocolate} She checked the temperature on the bowl and dropped the chopped piece of the chocolate into the makeshift double boiler. Then she poured some cream in with the chocolate. She began to stir it with one hand, as it began to melt, and then she zested a lemon. She dropped the lemon zest into the chocolate and stirred it in. She moved away from that, and let it melt together more. Pulling out another plate, she shaved some coconut onto it. She looked over the coconut a moment, and pulled out a second pan. Setting the pan on the stove, she turned it on, and began to let it warm. {3/8; Fried Chocolate} She gave the chocolate another stir and let it rest, turning off the heat. Turning to the new pan, she put her hand over it to check the warmth. She took the shavings of the coconut and dropped them into the heated pan. They began to sizzle, and she snickered slightly giving them a slight shake, and sprinkling them with a touch of sugar. She gave them another shake, and took the bowl of chocolate off the pan, and gave it a final stir, tasting it. Perfect. She gave it another minute, it needed to cool -- she needed them to harden. She shook the pan of coconut. {4/8; Fried Chocolate} Taking them off, she poured them back on the original plate that she had quickly dried and set the pan back, with the fire off. She was done with that. She checked the chocolate and pulled out a spoon and began to spoon balls of chocolate, and lay them out on some parchment paper. One, Two, Three. She continued until she had used up the chocolate. Setting the bowl in the sink, and pouring some water into it. She turned back to the truffles. She smiled and turned on the oil so it would be ready when she finished coating the coconut, orange chocolate truffles. Kale was pretty content. {5/8; Fried Chocolate} Each truffle; one by one she picked up and rolled into the coconut and sat back on the parchement paper. One, Two, Three. She continued until they were all coated. She smiled at them, and tossed a touch of water at the oil. It needed a minute more. Kale glanced around a moment, maybe she should make something quick to go with it. She decided after she finished the truffles, while they were cooling she could make something quick for them as well. Maybe a cool drink? She smiled and nodded at the idea. Yes, they would love that -- and she could show her gratitude. {6/8; Fried Chocolate} She checked the oil again, and dropped in a few of the truffles, and they begin to sizzle. She smiled and pulled out a couple pieces of paper towel, and another decorative plate. She grinned slightly, and set the paper down, to blot the chocolates when it was ready. She glanced around a moment, and went to the fridge, and pulled out some pre-made chocolate sauce. She grinned, they had everything she could thing of needing right here in this kitchen. It reminded her of home, and it made her happy; feeling comfortable. She almost didn't want to leave. {7/8; Fried Chocolate} She changed out the chocolate truffles, and began to blot the others. She took the chocolate sauce and drizzled it around the plate in an cute intricate design that made the plate look nice. Then she began to plate the chocolate truffles. Finishing up the last bit, she blot those and plated them as well. She looked over it. It needed something. She began to clean up the dishes, and right when she finished, she realized what it needed. Garnish! She plucked a mint leaf, and laid it to the side of the chocolate truffles, and set them to the side to cool. {8/8; Fried Chocolate}

She grabbed some milk, the chocolate sauce, and an orange liquor she had found in the refridge and went the freezer. Ice Cream! Bingo! She laughed pleasantly and grabbed it. Going to the counter she took out some pretty wine glasses, and long stemmed spoons. Chocolate syrup down into the glasses, and then two scoops of ice cream went into them. She smiled, added some milk, orange liquor and some more chocolate sauce giving it a quick stir, until the ice cream was softer. Taking two egg whites, she beat them into a bowl, until they were white stiff peaks. Whip Cream. {1/3; Made With Love (Custom)} She dolloped a spoonful of the whipped cream onto each of the glasses, and plucked a mint leaf off for each one, garnishing the tip. She looked over them all and smiled. Slowly she began to finish up her dishes, putting them away. She put all of the drinks on one large serving holder, and the chocolate truffles on the other, and checked the kitchen for any mess. Finding none, she picked up both, and carried them out to where Hewitt and the others were. She grinned. "Oi, Boys!" She called her voice sweet and melodic. "Dessert is ready~!" She said pleasantly. {2/3; Made With Love (Custom)} Kale passed out the truffles, and the drinks. She sat back and watched as they consumed them quickly. They all seemed to be in heaven. "Oh, Kale that was so amazing!" Hewitt said, taking Kale's hand. "Stay (ere, cook with me forever!" He begged her. Kale giggled, "I'm flattered, but I've got a Nakama of my own. I'll come back and visit though!" She promised. She waved to everyone and then headed away, cheers of her chocolate desserts, still playing on her ears as she went. She wondered if her own Nakama would have that same kind of reaction. She really hopped so! {3/3; Made With Love (Custom)}
