'
Those two are already at each other's throats. I need to diffuse this before it escalates.'
The two girls fail to notice your approach. It takes slamming Spaltbeil's haft into the floor to capture their attention. With their deadlock broken they both turn to you and start talk at the same time.
"She shot-"
" -I was just trying-"
" -I could have-"
"Both of you stop talking!" you shout over the pair. You take a deep breath and return to your normal tone before continuing, "I want to know what happened. You can each tell me your side of the story, just one at a time."
"She shot that thing while it was grabbing me, and nearly set me on fire!" Kyoko practically growls.
"It was trying to eat her and I had to do something make it let her go. I...knew my other spell would definitely hurt them both so I used one of my Ofuda. I don't know why the flames also went for Sakura-san."
'
It could have something to do with what happened to Kyoko's soul…' The thought comes to you but you dismiss it as too inflammatory before speaking. "Kyoko, Sailor Mars was trying to help you because she was concerned for your safety she wasn't trying to hurt you. Mars, you- no we all need to spend time practicing combat together so we can make sure that we don't accidentally hurt each other. In fact we should head back to the base and do so right now, Kyoko you have a fair bit of experience, would you care to pick the first training session topic? Unless anyone has something else to say we should head out."
Kyoko grumbles slightly at your decision, "Yeah, how the hell do you know my name?" she asks, turning back at Sailor Mars.
You interject before Rie has a chance to answer, "Sailor Mars, the disguise field. It should be safe now, you can drop the transformation."
In a flash of light Rei's Sailor uniform disappears revealing her grey and black school uniform. Kyoko's eyes go wide as she finally registers Mars' true identity. " Hino-san, I guess that makes sense, you always were kinda strange." Kyoko says with a grin, as she dispels her own transformation.
"Anyway, Luna the two of us should be in school right now, so-" Rei begins, before Kyoko interrupts her.
"I don't need that school, and I
so sure you can survive missing an hour or two. Or do you want to get hurt when I do something with my spear?"
You nod in agreement as Rei lets out a sigh of defeat, "You had better tell me what happened to you since you disappeared last year."
The walk back to the secret base is uneventful beyond the two girls trading remarks and Kyoko suddenly stumbling as she enters the shrine. You open up the base in a slightly different configuration, the computers and screens are hidden away leaving an open arena suitable for sparing and training. You should be also able to generate some hardlight targets from Artemis's systems.
"You said that I could pick what we do right? So how about some close quarters combat." Kyoko says, as she stretches her arms above her head.

[] Have Rei and Kyoko work together to take you down.
[] Do a set of spars, rotating so everyone can observe how the others fight.
[] Set up an opponent for the three of you to fight.
(I had most of this written out Saturday... but I couldn't make a solid direction for the training scene. )
