Reno had to remind himself that this was part of the plan. Not that he was planning on throwing the fight and letting Duster win, because that was just insulting. That, and Reno wasn't sure he was capable of it. His pride was strong. But sparring against another skilled person simply meant that sometimes you'd land a few, sometimes you'd take a few.

Reno took this one. Still, he had to applaud Duster's reaction -- internally, at least.

As the other man's leg connected with his middle, Reno curled in on it and latched on. If nothing else, he'd take Duster down with him.
