Batgirl Begins (dbspock/WendyTheRed)

Barbara shook her head at Sam's question. "Not literally. I mean she has that level of skill. I don't mean that she runs a dojo that will be taking part in tournaments and stuff." Technically, Sara did run a dojo it seemed but it was much different than Miyagi-Do and Barbara wasn't about to get into that discussion for multiple reasons. What Barbara said was true in that Sara did not run a dojo that would be involved in tournaments. It just wasn't the full truth.

Barbara continued her practicing of the defensive movements until Daniel addressed her and she stopped. She followed him to the pond, walking next to Chloe and eying the platform. She looked it over and nodded, then glanced at Chloe with a smile. "Well, let's do this." She moved to the far side of the platform from Chloe. "Let's both get on at the same time. It'd be a shame to fall off from the start. Ready? 3...2...1..." On one she stepped onto the platform, moving to stand roughly in the middle of her side of it. Should Chloe fall she'd do her best to keep her balance and move to the dead center of it, prepared to use her weight to assist Chloe in getting back onto it if needed.
 
Ah...well, that explained it a bit, though if Babs mysterious friend didn't run a dojo, how did she have a student? John had been even more elusive than Babs when it came to his background...Sam had felt lucky to get his name out of him. But if it meant the chance to beat Cobra Kai at the tournament, Sam was willing to live with the mystery.

Chloe was very glad Dave was working this evening, and that Mr. Larusso had better things to do than stare at her butt, as the only thing she could think of to do was crawl out onto the platform, her said butt wriggling as she approached Babs in the center. Chloe didn't fall, at least, though she did grab hold of Babs as she rose to her feet. But getting on the platform and standing was one thing...now Mr. Larusso wanted them to sense their 'opponents' movements by the shifting of the platform...with their backs to each other. Chloe tentatively turned around, then began to wave her arms wildly as she tried to keep her balance as the platform shifted, one of her arms striking Babs in the shoulder as she did so.
 
Barbara was unaware of Sam's confusion. To her it made perfect sense that someone might teach someone else without a formal dojo so it never even occurred to her that Sam might think in more formal terms. Soon, she was more focused on countering Chloe's crawling onto the platform with her own weight and she was proud that Chloe did it without any issues.

She listened to Daniel and slowly turned around. She took a deep breath to steady her breathing and concentration only for Chloe to hit her in the shoulder. Barbara wobbled, having been caught by surprise but luckily her feet were placed somewhat widely and she was stronger than Chloe so she didn't quite take a plunge, at least, not from the initial strike. Though if Chloe's balance got worse, they might both end up in the water very soon.
 
Chloe did manage to regain her balance without either of them taking a plunge...yet. "Sorry." Chloe said softly as she copied Babs and spread her feet a little for balance. If they could have just stood there, Chloe would have been fine, but that wasn't the point of the exercise. Chloe copied Babs again and took a deep breath, then they slowly began to move through the Kata. Chloe grinned as she actually began to anticipate Babs movements through the shifting of the disk in the water...and if the disk had been bigger, she might have been fine. But Chloe wasn't used to having space limitations for the movement, and took a half step too far once. Unfortunately once was all it took, and Chloe's foot began to slip off the disk, sending Chloe crashing down on her butt on the disk, which began to tip. Even if Babs managed to copy Chloe's movements exactly, it probably wouldn't have stopped the disk from tipping.
 
Barbara let out a sigh of relief. "We're learning Chloe. It's why we've over water and not up in the air over concrete or something..." Barbara let herself fall back into the rhythm of the kata, something she'd taken to doing even when she wasn't here and so it was starting to become familiar to her. She could feel that Chloe was falling into it as well and matching her movements and it occurred to Barbara that when done like this it was almost a dance and she seemed to be the one leading it due to being more familiar with the movements.

She felt it when Chloe's balance shifted and for a moment she held out hope that maybe she'd recover. It all happened quickly after that, Chloe's foot slipped and she felt her friend fall on her ass behind her. She wobbled, falling out of the kata as she turned her concentration to staying on her feet. She had great balance from her time in gymnastics but there were limits and she also pivoted slightly to check on Chloe. When the disk tipped she mentally congratulated herself for somehow mostly staying on her feet as she rode it down into the water, though she still ended up dunked along with Chloe.

She surfaced quickly and laughed. "You alright Chloe? You up for trying again?" She ran her hands through her wet hair, gathering it behind her and squeezing some water out. She reached behind herself to rub at her rear which had met the disk at the end of her slide despite her best attempts not to. Hopefully she wouldn't have a huge bruise or something...
 
Chloe giggled softly at the idea of doing this over concrete. "Or how about a pit full of ravenous lions?" Chloe joked, hoping to ease the tension at least in her own mind, but clearly it didn't work too well as she went plunging into the water. Or maybe it did work, and Chloe would have gotten dunked much sooner otherwise.

"Sorry..." Chloe gasped again once she resurfaced, and she relaxed a bit when she saw Babs was laughing and didn't appear to be upset. "I'm fine...didn't catch any fish though." Chloe complained with a grin, and there were indeed a few fish swimming around in the pond, a pond that wasn't as cold as Chloe feared it might be. Chloe wiped her hair back as well, though as it was shorter than Babs she had an easier time of it. "You all right?' Chloe asked with a frown when she saw Babs rub her butt.

Dave had just arrived to try a bit of training himself, but he was still dressed in his Big Belly Burger uniform when he entered the back yard. He saw Babs and Chloe fall and went over to them. "You two all right?" He asked, relieved that they resurfaced at least. "Need a hand?" He offered, not sure how he could help, so he gestured over his shoulder to where a couple big Bell Burger bags were sitting on a picnic table. "I brought dinner if anyone's hungry." He said as he tried not to stare at Babs. Chloe still had her sweatsuit on, so the water didn't do much, but Babs looked almost like she was getting ready for a wet t-shirt contest.
 
Barbara grinned at Chloe's comment about the fish and looked down in the water. She briefly debated trying to catch one but was distracted by Chloe's question. "Yeah, fell on my butt before sliding off of the platform. Guess mine's not as padded as yours is..." she couldn't help teasing her friend a little and she glanced over when she saw movement out of the corner of her eye, smiling when she saw Dave approaching.

"We're fine. Chloe just wanted to have some fish for dinner." She smiled and shook her head at the offer of help. Knowing her luck she'd pull him into the water with her or something, especially since she was taller and had more muscles than he did. She grabbed the edge of the pond and pulled herself out, blushing when she realized the action had tugged her athletic shorts down, exposing about half of her rear. She had panties on but her hips still showed pretty well.

She tugged them back up, glancing around to see if anyone noticed, blushing more when she realized Dave probably saw. That was only made worse when she realized her nipples were poking through her bra and tank top due to the cool water and the sudden exposure to the air. "Burgers sound great." She said in an attempt to keep things a bit less embarrassing and just move on.
 
"Wait...what?" Had Barbara...Miss Gordon...just called her FAT?! It certainly sounded that way, and no matter how many times Chloe played it back in her head, she couldn't come up with a way that wasn't offensive. The red head thought they fell over because Chloe was too fat. Chloe's face turned bright red as she scrambled out of the pool, mumbling something before she dashed into the pool hut.

"Well, I'd suggest burgers instead." Dave grinned at Babs, not hearing the comment that had made Chloe run, and before he could wonder at his friends absence, Babs distracted him by flashing him with her butt. He wasn't the only one that noticed either...Sam crowed as she finally got a hit in on John, who stumbled slightly, then turned to Sam with an annoyed look on his face. Sam actually paled slightly and backed away a bit before her dad called a break for dinner.

Dave nodded at Babs and smiled when she accepted his offer. "I got a few chocolate shakes too...though it doesn't look like you need to cool off." Dave risked teasing her with a tentative smile, ready to apologize if Babs looked offended.
