Updates:
None. This is a one shot, but it began and will continue in the main story, On a Pale Horse. The prompt inspired me to jump ahead a bit in the main story.

Teaser:
(It's pretty darned short so the teaser will be much shorter than that.)

He gave another snort, this one physical, as he got up, changed into a scruffier looking uniform and headed out the door. Duo Maxwell, feared pilot of Deathscythe, was stuck in the beginner's weapons class. Okay, to be perfectly fair, he was stuck in beginner's Archery. Armsmaster Tehlin had given him a "passable" grade in hand to hand and knife work and bumped him up to work with the advanced students. "Passable" though? Really? Even G hadn't thought there was anything more that Duo could be taught to do with small edged weapons. Tehlin had told him he was sloppy, needed to learn more control and needed to learn that the knives were an extension of his hands. Duo had always thought of knives as being an extension of his hands, his feet and his teeth if necessary. Clearly he had hidden just a bit too much of his true skill when the Armsmaster had first tested him. Either that or Duo was overestimating his own skills and he really did need the instruction. Nah, couldn't be. The worst part about the whole situation was that when he asked about it, Tehlin had immediately deemed him too old to start learning the sword. A real pity as he had plans to surprise a certain Chinese Gundam pilot with his kick-a** sword skills once he got home.
