There is Fenris grim His jaws are open wide The serpent rises from the waves Jormungandr twists and turns, mighty in his wrath The eyes are full of primal hate
Reading through the final stage of the style, Theo created a shadow clone and told it to attack him. As the clone began throwing punches and kicks as fast as it could, Theo fought to defend himself using both the staff and his hands, which ever was closest. As this continued, Theodin noticed that he was getting better at tracking the clone’s movements, to the point that he could even see the fastest of strikes. As his tracking improved, he began being able to defend against most of the strikes, or the ones he couldn’t stop, he was at least able to alter the targeted area to make it less effective. Telling the clone to back off for a minute, Theo stood in stance of wind and began circulating chakra through the staff and his body. Slowly the staff began to glow white. After a minute or so, Theo’s staff was shining a gleaming white. As this continued, Theo felt his his mind moving quicker, as well as his muscles feeling like they could move faster and were stronger. This time when the clone charged to attack, moving at full speed, Theo was able to easily track the attacks, smacking them aside with his staff easily before going on the offensive. Suddenly he was moving and striking faster than he ever had, very strike was a blinding blur of white light as he pummeled the clone with multiple strikes before finally jabbing it in the chest with the end of the staff, sending it flying for the wall, where it dissipated on impact. Calming down, Theo walked over and rolled up the scroll, placing it back on the shelf. Then he decided to head over to the academy to maybe do a bit more training or to watch over the other shinobi in case they needed help with anything. (EXIT) Ivory Tower of Wind: Stage 6 Mastered

Hoshi walked into the dojo and looked around a bit. It was quite dead around the area but, that didn't bother her much. She had a lot of training to do after being sick for a while. So without a moments hesitation, Hoshi walked over to the wall of scrolls and grabbed one for her particular choice in bukijutsu. She took a moment to sit down and read over the first section of the scroll which was explaining the basics of the Akira style.
Once she was done studying the scroll for a bit, Hoshi stood up and placed the scroll at her feet. To start learning the techniques she first had to master The First Akira: Akira of Speed. Hoshi moved her hand down to the sheathe that contained her steel fan. She would then pull it out and raise the fan up with it pointed out. Hoshi then raised her right arm hand about two inches away from the middle of her arm.
After Hoshi had her arms in position, Hoshi slid her left foot out so that that her feet were under her shoulders. To complete this training she had to have perfect foot movement. Without a moments thought, Hoshi moved her right foot out in front of her in a quick motion.There she planted her right foot before moving her left foot out in front of the right. She was completely focused on her both moving her feet while keeping her top completely still. Hoshi stopped with the moving and brought her right foot to be even with the left.
Now Hoshi had to try the swift but, watery way that she was supposed to strike in this particular style. Hoshi wasn't quite sure how to do this but, she knew that water flowed and that this style mimicked that in a way. In order to achieve this she needed to keep her arms somewhat limp so, she kept her arms stable but, limp. Hoshi then quickly moved her arm down and up a fluid motion. She then brought her fan close to her chest as she took a step forward then she quickly lashed out with the fan at a dummy in front of her, hitting it on the head. [The First Akira: The Akira of Speed learned]
Hoshi wasn't even close to down with her training. This was just a small amount so that she could try to learn the rest of the first stage. At this point she hadn't even opened her fan and the first technique she would learn would require her to open it. Hoshi rose her hand up in front of the dummy and quickly flicked her hand, this opened her fan. After she flicked her wrist she quickly brought her hand down, slicing the dummy's face. [The First Akira: Duelist's Swing learned]
However, Hoshi wasn't done with her attack on the dummy. She quickly moved behind the dummy and with all her weight she slammed the fan into the back of it's head, closing the fan. Then she shifted her weight back and kicked at the back of it's head in a perfect round house. This would send the dummy flying up into the air.[The First Akria: Brute's swing learned]
The dummy was moving at a quick pace through the air so Hoshi wanted to try something else before it hit the ground. She surged chakra through her feet and stepped at a much faster speed than before towards the dummy. She then rose her foot up into another roundhouse to send the dummy flying back up into the air but, this time straight up. [The First Akira: The First Step learned]
With a smile she flicked her fan back open swung it up towards the dummy then back down to cross over the original cut. This would cause the dummy to split in half as it's remains fell all around Hoshi. She smiled softly, knowing that she had just completed the first stage which was a major accomplishment to her. It is some of the first techniques that she had ever learned but, she knew that she still had a lot of training to do before she was on par with her sister which was her major goal at the moment. [The first Akira: Crossing Rise Learned]
As soon as Hoshi was done with her last training she walked back over to the scroll that she was using and picked it up. After she picked it up she sat down and started studying the next stage that she was going to learn of the Akira style. The next step was to learn how to keep her balance and maintain it. Before she got back up she looked at the scroll again and skimmed the other techniques in the scroll so she wouldn't have to look at them again. Once she was done skimming she stood back up.
The first step in this style was learning how to keep one's balance in the somewhat awkward positioning that the person had to put themselves in. Hoshi brought her hands up to her torso like the diagrams in the scroll had showed then she moved one leg out and bent her knees slightly. At first she nearly fell because of the way she had positioned herself but, she quickly fixed her positioning to give herself a little more balance. However, when she looked down at herself, she saw that her positioning was off from how it was suppose to be. Both of her knees weren't bent at all but, her hands were fine.
Hoshi let out a sigh after examining herself. She knew that this was going to take some practice to even just getting balanced correctly so she didn't fall flat on her a** when she was doing this. Hoshi took a large breath then slowly bent down, easing herself into it this time. At first she was doing fine but, as she bent more her legs started to shake from the pressure that was being put on them. However, Hoshi knew that she was going to have to get through this if this style was going to work for her.
Her legs continued to shake for a bit as she sat there trying to keep her balance. However, as she persevered it started to get easier and easier for her to do. Over time she was able to stand there without her legs shaking. Hoshi smiled softly but, now she had to try and walk without falling. She may be able to stand with her legs bent now but, that didn't mean that she was going to be walk just as easily. With this in mind she slowly went to make her first step.
When she was making this step she nearly fell but, managed to shift her weight so that she wouldn't fall. Another sigh followed as her foot planted back on the floor. Hoshi adjusted her position again so she was in the right positioning. For a while she tried to make this same step but, every time she nearly fell. It took her a good amount of tries before her step started to become more sturdy and sure. With more practice, Hoshi was able to step just like the diagram had showed her. The Second Akira: The Akira of Balance learned
Hoshi smiled softly after she was done training, however she realized quickly that she was going to need a second fan for the techniques in this style so she picked up the scroll she was using and put it back. Then she put her fan away and left the dojo to go the Suna Shopping Superdome.
It had been some time indeed since the silver haired man had been within the halls of the dojo but they were just as he remembered them tall and reverent. Without breaking his stride Nari headed over to the walls of the dojo where the scrolls were stored and began to thumb though them. It was high time he continued his training and he would start by working on his close combat skills. Taking the time to arrange a series of dummies for his use he extended his right arm and with a smile pulled one of his kunai from his belt. Making his way across the dojo he found a window and with a steady hand slowly tilted his kunai until it reflected the lights rays into the "head" of the target dummy, a crude underhanded move but useful none the less. [1/1]
Making his way back over to the array of target dummies he took up a low ready stance and lowered his right arm for a moment before lashing out quickly with a series of feints. With a smirk he suddenly dropped the blade and spun on his right leg before bringing his left up to punt the kunai into the neck of the target dummy. [1/1]
Without wasting any of his momentum he pushed up with his legs and rose back up to his full height and coated his pointer finger and middle finger on his left hand in chakra while pulling his kuani free with his right. His fingers lashed out quickly and with the practiced accuracy of an archer to strike the dummy where its lungs, heart, liver, and jugular would be. He knew from experience that were it a real person he would have crippled the target. [1/1
With a flick of the wrist he chuckled and slid his kunai into his belt and dashed off out of the dojo bouncing off of a pillar here and a doorway there. Once free and clear of the building he instantly headed up onto the roof of the adjoining building and was on his way from rooftop to rooftop toward the kages office building.

Hoshi came to the dojo and yawned softly as she did so. It was time for her to get back to training because she had taken a long enough break off of it. If she was ever going to beat that guy, she had a long way to go. She walked over to the scrolls and grabbed the D-rank scroll for the bukijutsu style she had been learning. Hoshi then took a seat and slowly started to read over it. Since she hadn't done much bukijutsu it took her a few minutes of studying the scroll before she thought about doing it. However, she took a second look at the scroll before deciding it was time to try.
She stood up and walked over to a clear spot where she could try the technique without hurting herself. The technique itself would be pretty simple for her to preform so, she drew her fans out of their sheathes and prepared herself. Hoshi then slowly adjusted her feet as it was shown in the picture. She then slowly slide her foot out until she was almost on the floor completely. That was pretty much all Hoshi had to do so, she stood back up and did it quicker to make sure she could do it at the speed that she would have to. Once done she smiled and stood back up. [The Second Akira: Dancer's Reprieve D Rank simple learned]
Staring at the dummy in front of her she sighed softly. Her god had promised her the ability to protect her children. Jabbing forward with her hand she connected her fist with the dummy. 1/14
It barely moved and was almost as if it was mocking her. With her eyes narrowing she jabbed at it again. Yet with the same result to befall upon her. 2/14
She could already feel the descent into insanty as she jabbed yet again. The dummy barely moved more than what it was. She was thinking about whether or not this was worth it. 3/14
Yet her god promised her swearing she would have the power she wanted. All she could do at this point was have faith in her god. Jabbing yet again the dummy moved a bit more. 4/14
She couldn't believe she had to stay here punching a dummy over and over. Yet she continued to do so without hesitation at this point. When her hand connected the dummy went the same distance as normal. 5/14
Slightly annoying to her yet she would shine through no matter what. Punching her dummy again she starged to naturally bounce up and down on her feet. Getting a little more into her training at the moment. 6/14
The more she thought of what happened to her the faster she struck. Jab after jab sinking into the dummy before her. With her large golden eyes narrowing further and further. 7/14
Pretty soon she began to let quick releases of air out with each jab. Like how an actual boxer would do it. With each strike becoming better than the last. 8/14
The thought of anything happening to her children adding to the desparation within her training. Yet her god told her before that she would be able to protect them. She would just need to train to get to that point. 9/14
She wasn't much to look at currently. As she had just started her training on physical styles. Something she knew very little about as she continued to hit the dummy. 10/14
As her hands were becoming red from the wear from the dummy she continued. Not caring in the slightest about the condition of her own body. She was going to destory all that tried to harm her children. 11/14
She didn't care if it was even a god! Her jabs became more frantic as she continued with this line of thought. The dummy getting pushed back farther than normal at this point. 12/14
The dummy continued to move further and further back with each jab. At this point Amaterasu was moving at a blinding speed with her fists. Not caring in the slightest as to what others were really seeing at the moment. 13/14
Then eventually her jabs died down in speed as she was focusing on the strength. Sure enough her jabs were a lot stronger already and she couldn't figure out how. Yet with each jab the dummy was clearly getting knocked back. 14/14
She took a minute and sighed as she dropped most of her training gear so she could be light on her feet. Bouncing up and down on her feet she held her hands in front of her. Sending her rear hand forward hitting the dummy. 1/14
The technique was said to be stronger than the jab. However as she did it it was only as strong as the jab. Somewhat disappointing as she threw another one at the dummy. 2/14
After another strong hit from her rear hand she stood there for a moment. Merely starring at the dummy. She was giving a look that many would be frightened from. 3/14
She began to think the dummy was a jutsu of sorts. Becoming heavier and stronger depending on how stronger she became. Then she quickly tossed that idea to the side when she discovered it to be idiotic. 4/14
Scratching her head for a moment she began to ponder as to why her attacks were weak again. She simply couldn't figure it out. Even as she continued to hit the dummy with her rear hand. 5/14
It was getting frustrating to her as she continued to do the same over and over. Punching it hard with her rear hand and then moving to a different position. Such a repetitive style... 6/14
Yet this was the one her god told her about. It suggested a style meant for close quarters and singling people out. Since her iron sand could control even the harshest of crowds. 7/14
Hitting the dummy again it moved farther back than normal. Then this is when it occured to her what was going on. Each technique in the scroll had to be trained up to maximum potential. 8/14
Bouncing on the balls of her feet she took her time hitting it. Never rushing herself at this point as she wanted to do it right. That was all that mattered right now honestly. 9/14
Hitting the dummy again it bounced off the wall behind it. Asami's eyes narrowed as she realized what she had done. During the course of her training she had pushed the dummy back quite a distance. 10/14
Taking the time out of her training to move it back she sighed in annoyance. The dummy was indeed heavy but not as much as she thought it was going to be. She didn't know why at this point as it was heavy earlier. 11/14
Throwing another right at the dummy it managed to move more than half the way down. A smile threatened to creep up on her lips at the moment. However she would only smile after training was done. 12/14
Pivoting this time with the punch she hit it much harder. Causing it to rock a bit as she bounced up and down. Her eyes full of determination as she stared the dummy down. 13/14
Was it sad that she was staring a dummy down at this current moment? Even after she launched punch after punch that it felt like it was her greatest adversary? Whatever the case she launched one finaly punch causing it to hit the ground and rock back up. 14/14
Amaterasu began to jump up and down on her feet with this next technique. She threw a punch with her rear fist and sighed in an aggitated manner. She was supposed to twist her hips and she forgot. 1/14
She tried again only for the same thing to happen. Completely spacing out on twisting her hips to add to her punch. Then something else occured to her entirely during the training. 2/14
She was supposed to be throwing hook punches not straight punches. Gritting her teeth she tried to break out of habit at this point punching it normally yet again. Her eyes narrowed out of frustration during this point. 3/14
She tried once more taking it slower than normal at this point. As her fist landed on the dummy she noted that there was a slight twist. She was doing one thing right at least. 4/14
It was trying to break out of what was normal for her at this point. Which was going to be difficult but it would need to happen no matter what. With another hit the dummy bounced back a bit. 5/14
She no longer cared about the strength of her strikes. This was mainly because she knew once she learned everything properly the strength would be there. Her golden eyes began to glow as she was bouncing up and down on her feet. 6/14
Striking at the dummy again she performed a correct hook punch for once. A sliver of a smile crept upon her face. A bead of sweat rolled down her brow. 7/14
She launched another hook punch and listened as her hip popped. Her hand immediately went to her hip and she began to rub it gently. She wasn't used to such abuse and punishment. 8/14
Even though she's been with the village for a while now they had trained most of their lives as shinobi. She had only trained for months at this point. Yet she showed promise to be a great shinobi above all else. 9/14
While still bouncing on her feet she took steady breaths. Trying to keep her heart rate down and train herself under stress as well. It wasn't a goal to do but none the less it didn't hurt to do. 10/14
At this point anything that would make her a better shinobi she would attempt. With that thought she launched another punch at the dummy knocking it back. Her mind going back to her village and people. 11/14
The anger swelled up inside of her as she couldn't stand what happened to them. It was all of her fault in reality and she had accepted this. It was time to devote her life to servitude in return. 12/14
She would become the shinobi and protect others for once. It was going to be her turn to bleed and die for others. She was going to be damned if she failed her mother. 13/14
Bringing her arm back she twisted her hips as she threw it forward. The fist she made connected with the dummy and sent it to the ground. She let it bounce wildly for a while as she began to handle her emotions. 14/14
Asami placed her hands upon the dummy and held it still for a moment. Letting it settle so that she could quickly continue on with her training. Squaring herself on the target she took a steady breath and continued training. 1/14
Pressing up with her legs she attempted the uppercut but failed at it. It just felt so awkward to her that she wasn't able to attempt it. Shaking her head a bit she looked back to the dummy. 2/14
There had to be an easy way to perform this technique. Something to make it easier for her to do all of this. So that way she wouldn't feel like a complete idiot doing this training. 3/14
As she began to think of ways into it something occured to her. Perhaps she shouldn't think of the dummy as a dummy? The thought was striking her fancy rather well. 4/14
However she finally decided that was unhealthy to her morale and simply began bouncing up and down once more. Her arms squared up in front of her head and she moved in towards the dummy. 5/14
Her golden eyes burning into the dummy at this point as she moved in for the kill. Her feet effortlessly taking their places just as quickly as she picked them up. Her hands clasped into fists with the intent of killing. 6/14
There was nothing wrong with how intense her training had become. Yet it wasn't the best way to train either. Off of emotion rather than simply to train that is... 7/14
It provided a dangerous tranining environment for others should they interfere with her any time soon. For their sakes she hoped they didn't lest they wanted to become her next dummy. Which something like that could easily become arranged. 8/14
She rushed the dummy and again lifted off with her legs. However she yet again failed with following through with the uppercut. At this point it was muscle memory messing with her yet again. 9/14
Practically growling out of frustration she scratched her head bouncing up and down a bit. So that the blood could continue to flow through her body without problems. Gritting her teeth her eyes claimed her target. 10/14
She had decided on doing something and nothing was going to cause her to falter. With this next technique she was going to destroy the dummy with ease. She was going to completely annihilate it. 11/14
Her golden eyes glowing intensely as she laid her eyes upon her target again. However she wasn't going to psyche herself out this time. She was going to make sure above all else she followed through. 12/14
Gritting her teeth she walked back a bit and then circled around walking back to the dummy. Turning into a full on sprint she closed the distance quick. Squaring up she got right on the dummy and moved to attack it. 13/14
Lifting her legs she rose from the ground hitting it under its chin. Taking it out completely as the dummy was demolished. Landing on her feet she grinned like the cat who ate the cannary. 14/14
Asami sighed as she grabbed a nearby towel and began to wipe the sweat from her face. Her determination was paying off as she was almost through with her training. She was done with the hard part at least. 1/4
Throwing the towel on the ground she looked down to her hands and began to focus. She needed to work on her chakra flow to her hands for this. Which as always required concentration. 2/4
A dim glow of her chakra began to outline her hands. It wasn't entirely what she wanted however it was a start none the less. Smiling as she continued to build the chakra into her hands. 3/4
Her chakra began to glow brilliantly around her hands causing her to smile a bit more. She had this technique down and now it was time to go to the next. She was going to rock this style. 4/4
Cracking her neck she decided it was time to go to another dummy. She needed to continue working on her hand work as well as foot work. Something to help pass the time with her. 1/4
Getting right up on the dummy she squared herself away and then jabbed at the dummy. The second jab was slower than what it should have been. However she continued on practicing her jabs. 2/4
Continuing the training the dummy kept getting knocked around badly. Definitely due to her earlier training of smacking the dummy around for a bit. The more she did this however the faster she got. 3/4
Eventually she got to where she needed to be. Her jabs were almost the same punch knocking the dummy around viciously. Smiling a bit she held the dummy to make it be still. 4/4
Now it was time to try some fun combinations out. Squaring away she attacked the dummy with a jab then a rear punch. Each hit went to the dummy's chest. 1/3
Not waiting for the dummy to calm down she went for a jab and then a hook punch. The dummy's head touched the ground as it began to sway violently. She was getting rather good with this style... 2/3
With the last bit she hook punched the dummy and then moved into an uppercut. Destroying the second dummy she smiled a bit. Yet again wiping sweat away with her towel for the moment. 3/3
Amaterasu began to work on her stance a bit. Squaring away her shoulders while holding her fists in front of her face. She began to breathe calmly while holding her upper body like this. 1/3
Then she moved her feet into the correct spot as well while bending her knees. Bouncing up and down only a bit she was setting the standard at the moment. Her golden eyes calm once more. 2/3
As her training continued on no one would question whether or not she worked hard for her promotion. She was supposed to get it soon yet regardless she would have earned it. One way or another there should be no doubt. 3/3
Sighing softly she summoned an iron clone before her. Staring it down she made it look like the Jashinist she killed before. Her eyes narrowed as this training was going to be intense. 1/10
Severing her ties to the Iron Jashinist she gave it a will of its own. Quickly it came at her in an attempt to kill her. Already she was bouncing on the balls of her feet ready to go. 2/10
She wasn't going to be stopped by anything at this point. She was going to continue on and become one of the strongest shinobi to ever exist. There would be nothing left standing in her way. 3/10
Gritting her teeth she let out a yell as she pushed a punch away from her. She had to remain on the defensive for now at least. So that she could get every bit of training she could from this. 4/10
Something like this wasn't going to be easy by any means however she had to do it. However she was going to do it. However she couldn't fail in this lest she be less than dirt. 5/10
As the Iron Jashinist threw another powerful punch the same thing happened. She pushed it to the side only making the Iron Jashinist angrier. 6/10
Her golden eyes began to glow the more she dodged this maniac. She couldn't allow herself to be killed by her own clone. How sad would that be? 7/10
Many would give the excuse that it wouldn't be because she severed ies with it. However it would be because that means her creation is better than her. There could be no such talk through the village about something like that. 8/10
She continued to dodge, block, and counter for a while. Making it angrier each and every time. She noticed even in her subconcious the Jashin were not tranquil. 9/10
Then finally she moved out of the way at the last second causing the Iron Jashinist's arm to go into the wall. Amaterasu backed away gathering her energy so that she could contine the fight. 10/10
The Iron Jashinist had finally gained its own voice with a harsh metallic sound to it. "Come here girly!" It shouted as it attempted to pull its arm free. Yet the wall would not bulge against his mighty metallic body. 1/10
She held up her guard as she was bouuncing on her feet to keep the blood flowing. The longer this was dragged out the more she was dulling her emotions. Which was something she needed more than anything. 2/10
The Iron Jashinist placed his foot against the wall and began to press against it. Trying to free his arm from its tight grip. So that he could slaughter the woman who was currently a blight to his existence. 3/10
She merely smiled a bit as she continued to hold her gaurd up. Ready to train against the Iron Jashinist that she made. Ready to destroy him and everything he was. 4/10
Many would more than likely be discourage within this moment. But not our dear Amaterasu... Instead she found joy from such a wonderous training excersize. 5/10
She growled a bit waiting on the Iron Jashinist to get loose from thle wall. She was growing impatient the more he angered himself. So a rather dangerous thought came to her mind. 6/10
She was going to help the Iron Jashinist escape from his torment. Moving quickly to the wall she threw a vicious haymaker into the wall causing a portion of it to crumble. Just enough for the Iron Jashinist to escape its clutches. 7/10
The Iron Jashinist laughed hysterically as the debris cleared up. His eyes locked onto his prey as he launched himself forward towards her. Amaterasu steeled herself for his oncoming assault. 8/10
With a swift punch thrown at her she braced herself against the iron. The hit was somewhat deflected by her form. Hunkering down low and guarding her upper body. 9/10
The Iron Jashinist continued the assault having most of his hits deflected. Even though they were indeed hitting Asami they weren't doing nearly as much damage as they would have. This was very lucky of her that is... 10/10
Jumping back she giggled through the pain she was currently feeling. Many would perhaps be understanding the gravity of the situation she was in. However she herself could not at this appointed time. 1/10
She rushed towards him with her hands up and ready to beat the Jashinist's a**. Gritting her teeth she ducked underneath a vicious kick he threw towards her. She had to be careful fighting him. 2/10
Moving to him she jabbed at him twice catching his attention. "You're going to die girly!" He shouted as he blocked the hits and then glared at her. She definitely had to be careful in this situation. 3/10
Before too long he began to manipulate his own body. Amaterasu's eyes narrowed as she watched with much vigil. Still bouncing up and down on her feet. 4/10
She watched the iron sand slowly form into something new. He held out his hand waiting to grab on to it. Obviously something he wanted to fight with against her. 5/10
She already had an idea of what it could be which was going to make this slightly worse. Because she was going to have to stay on her toes and keep dodging against him. She could not let her guard down at all against him. 6/10
But that was okay in reality. For she was going to have to train just that much harder against him. To dodge every single strike sent against her. 7/10
Only to time her strike against him perfectly for the exact moment. Something for when he would have to lower his guard entirely. Something that would decimate him entirely and put an end to him. 8/10
She was no longer going to be a damned victim in this war with the Jashinists! She was going to be their executioner! She was going to make sure they remembered her name for all of eternity! 9/10
As the Jashinist's scythe formed he swung at her from the side. Amaterasu wasted no time in ducking below the swing and lunging for him. Launching her arm mightily over her head and striking him as if she was swimming. 10/10
The Iron Jashinist dispersed in sand only to reform within the next moment. "You're dead!" He howled with a deadly rage. He started to swing his scythe at her mightly. 1/4
Each swing missed her however ever so slightly. She continued her efforts to only dodge everything. Not caring in the slightest she was at death's door almost. 2/4
"Stay still b***h!" He shouted at her trying to cut her to shreds. Yet she did not obey him as she was toying with him still. Only adding to his rage against her. 3/4
Then he swung overhead at her allowing her to dodge at the last second. His scythe plunged into the ground and she placed her foot on it. Keeping it sunk into the ground. 4/4
Bending her legs the Jashinist cackled at her. It was an odd sight indeed and he wasn't used to such a thing. "What are you doing girly?" He asked her curiously. 1/6
Lunging towards him she jabbed him twice in quick succession. Her jabs tore through the iron sand body of his and he roared in pain. "You pain in my a**!" He yelled at her. 2/6
"Why is it you're such a pain to kill? Just die already!" He shouted at her drawing his scythe to his side. Hunkering down again she 'loaded' another punch. 3/6
"Stop moving girly!" He yelled as he swung his scythe at her. Yet again she dodged with grace sending a massive haymaker at him. His body dispersed again from the punch. 4/6
Growling loudly in rage he assembled himself again larger than normal with a more vicious scythe. "I'm going to skull ******** your soul!" He yelled at her as he swung again. Shaking her head she dodged the strike. 5/6
Was this man never going to learn so long as he fought her... He was never going to touch her. This was a fact that the Jashinist wasn't learning any time soon. 6/6
As sweat was slowly dripping from her brow she did not yield. Keeping up her guard and dodging the maniac as he swung. She learned quickly that the Iron Jashinist would never learn. 1/7
He was going to be the same dull individual he always was. However that was perhaps because of his subconcious. Whatever the case may be he wasn't doing any better. 2/7
She then began to concentrate on using the next technique. She had to take her time with this one or she could injure herself. Sighing softly she dodged another swing from the mighty scythe. 3/7
Concentrating chakra into her fists she began to try the technique. The chakra taking its own form yet not holding it. This technique was far different than the one from earlier. 4/7
She had to continue on with this however. The idea was to master this style and another then defeat the Jashinist. Everything had to fall into place for her to defeat him! 5/7
Gritting her teeth she focused more and her eyes held a cold edge to them. "If looks could kill girly!" The Jashinist cackled as he swung down at her. Yet again she dodged at the last second. 6/7
Then chakra began to glow gloriously around her fists. "You're mine!" She practically howled to him as she threw a right hook then a left at him. Six shots of chakra blew into him without falter. 7/7
"So damned annoying!" He shouted to her as he swung at her yet again. Now it was time for her to play a game. She gracefully dodged to the side and smirked at him. 1/6
Swinging from her side she ducked underneath the strike. Quickly running forward she tagged him in the rib cage. Her strike not that strong but she would get there with this style. 2/6
"Stop squirrelin around girly!" He shouted to her as he swung down at her again. As she decided that wasn't even a real word she easily dodged to the side of his attack. 3/6
Lunging towards him again she used a haymaker and aimed for his head. As her fist connected with his face she noticed that her strikes were getting stronger. This was almost where she needed to be at. 4/6
Quickly reaching out to her she manuevered around his hand and jumped back. "Gotcha!" He shouted throwing his scythe at her. At this moment he couldn't be any farther from the truth. 5/6
Dashing forward she launched another shotgun fist at her prey in this moment. Three bursts hit his body and then three more hit his face. With the sand travelling everywhere wildly she knew she had him on the edge. 6/6
Now was the time to temporarily finish him. She had to do this just right. There could be no failure on her part during this event. She had to take him down and bring him back later for training. 1/7
Charging up a familiar technique within her fists she grinned like the devil. Chakra began to outline her hands as she focused more and more. After all this shotgun fist was a highly useful technique. 2/7
"Getting so damned annoying girly!" He shouted like normal at her. Swinging like a wild animal yet hitting nothing. He sure wasn't learning a damned thing against her. 3/7
Yet she was learning everything about him and his fighting. Or rather what she believed his fighting to be. It was close to the same thing was it not? 4/7
Just as the chakra took full shape her eyes went wide as he did something new. He swung underneath her for once. Causing the scythe to swing upward at her. 5/7
Gritting her teeth she ran forward towards him with the scythe. She jumped onto the pole of the scythe and quickly put her weight on it. Sticking it into the ground raiton mixed with her fists. 6/7
With her fists chirping as if a chidori technique were active she rushed forward. Throwing one fist then the other mightily. With six blasts of raiton chakra headed towards him. 7/7
Quickly rushing over she grabbed a knife to aid her in combat against this madman. When he swung down at her she gritted her teeth and held the knife up. With her hand pressed against the back of the blade she held him off. 1/1
"Someone got some guts!" He cackled as bits of sand fell onto her arms. With her narrowed eyes focused upon his face she dashed forward. Knocking him off balance and lunging towards him again. 1/2
When he expected a punch she met him in the stomach with something else. The hilt of her knife met with his gut as she pushed harshly against him. Then shouldered him away from her to give her some space. 2/2
As the Iron Jashinist rushed her she began to swipe at him wildly. Becoming faster with her strikes with each swing of her knife. As he tried to gain footing she kept up the attack. 1/1
She wasn't going to allow him even the slightest bit of leverage. She became even quicker at switching directions with her knife with each swing. She was going to become one hell of a shinobi for sure afte rthis. 1/1
Now she realized was the time to truly piss off this Jashinist. She was to take everything away from him after this point. His pride, joy, even his will to serve Jashin. 1/3
As he swung at her she tossed her knife into the air which confused him. Just enough for her to move around to his side. Holding out her hand she grabbed the knife as it fell in the exact spot she stopped. 2/3
Using the rest of her momentum she spun piercing into his side with the knife. This style was so elegant yet vicious and misleading. It was perfect for her to learn in reality. 3/3
When she pulled the knife out she jumped back only to be met by his gaze. It was with a rage that she herself has felt only once. Then rushing towards her she smiled to him. 1/3
To her this was so much fun at the moment. With the mixed feelings of fury and joy working with each other produced a drug like feeling. Adrenaline was at an all time high as she rushed to meet him. 2/3
Slashing down at him he easily deflected it with his scythe only to be tricked. She dropped the knife and grabbed it with her other hand. Slashing in the opposite direction catching his chest. 3/3
"Keep up the pace girly lest I get to kill you!" He shouted to her only to get a smile in return. Not what the Jashinist was looking for however he didn't seem to mind she found joy in this fight. 1/3
Moving under his swing she started to slash wildly at his chest keeping him off balance. Although he was easily taking every hit without a problem he couldn't keep up. That was the main problem in this fight. 2/3
She then changed the knife to her other hand and surprised him. "What!?" He called out as this time he knew it to be different. This time she stabbed him right within the knee preventing him from moving. 3/3
Howling in pain he reached down for the knife attempting to pull it out of his knee. He was met with brutality as she kicked the knife the rest of the way through his leg. Causing him to further howl in pain. 1/4
Running to the knife she held it within her hand and continued to run around him. She needed to time everything just right yet again. She wasn't going to fail in her training. 2/4
She needed to prove that she was the best without even the slightest of doubts. To become the best within this village and overcome her enemy she would do anything. Gritting her teeth she kept her speed up and concentrated chakra through her body. 3/4
She moved the chakra into the knife and threw it with a ferocious might. The knife almost silent as it went through his head. With a smile on her face she ran to grab three knives. 4/4
The Iron Jashinist stopped for a moment and held his head. As if to collect his thoughts for this fight. It seemed he was attempting to learn at least that is... 1/3
She began to juggle three knives grabbing them by their hilt each time. She didn't slow down at all at this time. If anything she only sped up at points and time. 2/3
"What do you think this is? A circus?" He asked her as she threw all the knives at him and pierced into his chest. "Damnit that's getting annoying girly!" He shouted at her. 3/3
She grabbed two more knives and placed them within her belt line. Not caring in the slightest about the danger at this point. If anything this was merely fueling her desire for adrenaline. 1/3
"Rather balsy don't you think girly?" He asked as he faked a swing at her tricking her. She fell for it and rushed forwards towards him. "Gotcha!" He shouted as he swung down at her. 2/3
Little would he know that she was even faster than before. Drawing a knife with ease she blocked the scythe and held him still. "This is almost not fair!" He shouted while pushing her back a bit. 3/3
As she was pushed back she cursed under her breath. Going so far as to drop the knife. The smile on his face widened to that of a devil. 1/4
Quickly drawing out another knife she moved up to block the scythe again and looked down. If she timed this just right... Her thoughts moved to something evil. 2/4
Moving forward slightly something caught the Jashinist's eye. Curiousity overtook him as he wondered what she was up to. Then his curiousity was soon answered. 3/4
Her foot met with the hilt of the knife and kicked it up towards him. The knife shot up into his head and he fell back for a moment. Not expecting a vicious attack like the one she had just performed. 4/4
She rushed forward to meet him again before he even attempted to attack her. She wouldn't allow him any leverage again. She couldn't afford to right now. 1/4
Meeting his scythe with her knife she held him still again. "You just keep doing the same thing. Doesn't it ever get boring?" He asked her curiously as he held his deadly gaze on her. 2/4
"All you've been doing is swinging your scythe like a madman." She mocked him right back within this particular instance. She earned only a cackle back from him in return. 3/4
Rolling her eyes she manuevered her knife in the right spot. With the sun glaring through the window she angled it into his eyes. "Damnit woman!" He yelled at her as he was pissing her off. 4/4
She began to build up chakra within her free hand as she held him still. Both of them currently at a stand still at the moment. Especially with her enemy being blinded. 1/5
"What now girly? Going to throw some more knives?" He asked trying to get into her head at the moment. "Or are you just going to continue to dance around my attacks?" He asked her. 2/5
She ignored him as she wouldn't give him the current satisfaction of belittling her. She was going to be better than him no matter what. She had to defeat him soon or else she would falter for sure. 3/5
"Come on woman tell me what you're doing!" He demanded as he put more weight down onto her even as she blinded him. She had also noted that he went from calling her girly to woman. 4/5
As a thin aura of chakra formed she wondered if this meant he saw her as worthy. Then lunging to him she stabbed his chest with the aura of chakra. Damaging him and causing him to laugh as she jumped back again. 5/5
Feeling something build up in her she smiled at him and the Iron Jashinist smiled back. She didn't know what it was but she was beginning to feel different with this moment. Perhaps it was the fact she was growing stronger. 1/4
Whatever the case may be she was almost done with her training and wouldn't stop here. She had to keep going in order to become the best. She knelt down and picked up two knives and stared at the Jashinist. 2/4
"You'll definitely be a worthy sacrifice to Jashin." He said and this made her go cold. As she began to shake a bit her eyes narrowed with fury behind them. He rushed her only to be met with a surprise from her. 3/4
She was now fully capable of using two knives at once in this moment. Dropping one knife and kicking it up while throwing the other one down. The one met with his face while the other met with his knee. 4/4
"Bring it!" She yelled at him as she grabbed the knife from his knee cap then jumped into the air. As she jumped into the air she round house kicked the one from his head into the ground. Then quickly rolled to grab the other knife. 1/6
Turning to face him with her golden eyes staring him down his body reformed. It was at this point that she noticed that it was taking longer for his body to reform. Was this due to the fact that he was getting weaker? 2/6
Whatever the case may be she narrowed her eyes and began to think of the next plan of action. He swung his scythe at her only for her to dodge again. The nimble warrior she was easily sped up to him. 3/6
She began to slash at him accurately as he blocked most of the attacks with his scythe. She continued to give him hell wanting him to become complacent. After all that would only spell victory for her. 4/6
When he got to a point where he didn't move at all she knew it was her time. Her eyes began to glow as she dropped both knives. "What the hell?" He muttere3d as he was entirely confused. 5/6
His confusion was quickly asnwered as she grabbed one of his arms and put her legs against his side. Then pushed with all of her might against his body. Easily breaking his arm and causing him to howl. 6/6
Dropping his scythe he pulled her over his head as he was goign to try and slam her to the ground. She pulled up her guard and quickly met him with a haymaker to his face. Completely dispersing his body at the moment. 1/7
Jumping from the mound of sand she quickly dashed for the knives. Holding the hilts she pointed the blades down and looked back to the Iron Jashinist. He was having trouble taking form at this point. 2/7
All that meant was she had himi on the ropes. She needed to continue on in order to finally finish him for good. Her eyes began to glow yet again with chakra behind them. 3/7
She began to focus chakra into elbows as she had an idea. After all he wasn't the brightest of fighters and the more she dispersed him the more ideas she got. Gritting her teeth she waited for him to take form again. 4/7
"b***h..." He muttered as he finally took shape and finally took a defensive stance. This caused her to smile a bit. She had him rethinking his entire tactics finally. 5/7
After all it was about damned time that he was to give her a challenge for once. She dashed at him and swiped at him only once with her knife. Sure enough he caught it with his scythe and held it. 6/7
He was definitely learning but not fast enough! Dropping that knife she moved towards his body and elbowed his chest releasing charka through his body. "You pain in my a**" He barely managed to shout. 7/7
With his body reduced to nothing yet again she went to pick up her other knife and waited for him to take form again. Standing tall she waited for him as if she was edging him on. Wanting him to get angrier than before. 1/6
Now she was really going to irritate him within this part of the battle. Taking the two knives she began to juggle them until she found a third one. Then she kicked it up to join the other two she was juggling. 2/6
"You'll not tempt me this time woman." He said slowly and without a joy behind his voice. Perhaps he meant to truly attempt to slaughter her at this point? Whatever the case may be she couldn't allow it. 3/6
She had so much more to do within this life time that she wasn't going to be beaten. She couldn't possibly allow herself to be defeated in such a poor way. She had to go out as the true champion to her god. 4/6
Instead her eyes narrowed further as a deceptive smile crept upon her face. Her teeth gleaming with the light as she continued to juggle. She knew just how to piss him off and make him lose it. 5/6
"Are you afraid that Jashin is inferior to my god?" She asked of him as she continued to juggle. His eyes went wide as he howled with rage. Lunging for her as he swung with devastating might. 6/6
"Come at me!" She shouted as she dropped the third knife and held two of them. Her eyes full of such joy during the moment. Reaching to his scythe with her knife she deflected it. 1/6
It was time for her to work on her footwork and nothing else. She needed him to attack more so that she could continue to dodge him. That way she wouldn't really need to practice anything else. 2/6
Continuing lifting and putting her feet down in specific spots she put herself in a lot of danger. However she truly didn't care as she wasn't scared anymore. Perhaps she should of been. 3/6
She didn't know if there was anything she would fear anymore after this. After all this rigorous training was almost a joke to her now. She was simply able to dodge everything now with ease. 4/6
Perhaps that was the point of all of this? To be able to move with ease and counter anything that came against her? She began to ponder the concept of this. 5/6
Even as the Jashinist attacked her like a madman she dodged everything. Utilizing her footwoork to the fullest extent. Only pissing off the Jashinist to his wit's end. 6/6
As he swiped at her again she waited for the last possible moment to dodge him. Yet again not caring if she were to get injured from his scythe. If anything it would only add to her training. 1/1
Dashing over to the weapon selection again she grabbed a sack and quickly tied it to her sash. Looking back to her enemy she smiled as she pulled out a small marble. Not sure of what to make of it the Iron Jashinist rushed her. 1/3
"Such a fool." She mocked him as she then threw the marble down upon the ground. Making a dense cloud of smoke before him. Blurring his vision for a moment as he swung at the empty air. 2/3
She appeared beneath him and gave him a powerful uppercut to his chin. Dispersing the sands yet again causing the Iron Jashinist much pain. She didn't care in the slightest about his pain as she held a few marbles within her hand. 3/3
She began to debate what to do next until she decided upon something rather spectacular. Something that was going to confuse him entirely. Something that was going to leave him in the dust. 1/4
There was no more time for her to be nice against him. She had to beat him within the next few minutes. After all there was other trainging that she needed to do. 2/4
Then she was going to need to speak to the Kazekage about becoming a chuunin finally. She didnt' see the Kazekage being against her at this point. Especially after all the training she had just done. 3/4
She cracked her neck as he swung at her. Throwing down the smoke pellets and using chakra at the same time. Disappearing as he hit nothing yet again. She appeared behind him in the distance merely giggling at him. 4/4
Throwing a knife she missed him causing him to laugh. She frowned and it appeared that she didn't mean to miss. In return she threw another and missed again. 1/4
This caused him to laugh a bit more as he had much to say at this point. "What's the matter woman? Losing all your energy?" He asked her curiously at this point. 2/4
She began to look as if she was getting frustrated at this point. Throwing a few more knives and being frustrated. But then a smirk appeared upon her face. 3/4
Concern crossed his face as she pulled dozens of wires and pulled every knife. Each of them found a spot into the Iron Jashinist. Causing him to curse immensely at this point and time. 4/4
Pulling a small net of wire from her sack she giggled a bit. His curses continued on as he pulled every knife from his body. "You damned demon!" He yelled out at her. 1/5
"Here kitty, kitty." She mocked him as she held the small net with both hands. His eyes narrowed as his lips lifted over his teeth. Mimicing an enraged animal and rushing towards her. 2/5
She would continue to toy with him at this point. Waving her net every once in a while as if it were a cape and he were a bull. "You're pissin me off demon!" He yelled at her. 3/5
She then noted he stopped calling her woman and switched to demon. Perhaps yet another upgrade he had given her out of respect. She didn't know but her training was nearly complete. 4/5
Throwing the net at him finally it became large and wrapped around him. Tying him down and leaving him to yell in pain. Trying to fight against the steel net as it tightened around his body. 5/5
Now she wanted to mock him more as he struggled agaisnt the net. She grabbed out a piece of paper and began to focus chakra into it. "Oh you better just kill me!" He yelled out struggling with the net. 1/5
It began to mess with the form of his body. Forcing him to struggle to maintain it to fight against her. She found it slightly odd that he didn't want to cheat in order to slaughter him. 2/5
Or was it the fact that he was unable to change his form to win against her. To truly say he had beaten her did he need to do it in his own form? There were so many questions to it at this point. 3/5
The more she began to question it the more she felt herself not caring in the slightest. She continued to focus chakra into the paper. Trying to make it larger to piss him off even further. 4/5
Then at the last second he managed to escape the net and lunged towards her. Swinging his scythe so mightily that a burst of air came to her. Then the kite took form and she was flown backwards causing her to laugh hard. 5/5
"Damnit demon!" He shouted at her as she flew high within the air. Simply floating for a bit until the kite began to glide down. Then she decided on how to end this properly. 1/6
Her eyes full of joy as she let go of the kite and began to fall to the ground. "What the hell is wrong with you, you suicidal devil!?" He shouted at her as he tossed his scythe at her. 2/6
Dodging his scythe in the air she continued to fall with smoke pellets in one hand. Charging them with chakra as she fell. Beginning to judge the timing for this to not falter. 3/6
Pulling her fist back the Jashinist was onto her. "Ah, hell no!" He yelled at her as he pulled on the scythe cable. Pulling it back down to him as quisckly as possible. 4/6
With the scythe barely missing her again she launched a shotgun blast of chakra forward. distracting him entirely. This time he managed to dodge it and smiled widely at her. 5/6
Within this current moment the both of them were demons upon the battlefield. Throwing down the poison smoke pellets she landed directly upon his scythe. Then jumped backwards from it to watch his movements. 6/6
Gritting her teeth she grabbed a knife and began to deflect every attack he sent her way. She wasn't slowing down in the slightest even though she was on the defensive. If anything she was biding time at this point. 1/7
As if trying to figure out a way to put him down for good now. "Just die!" He shouted at her. "You first pansy!" She shouted back at him. 2/7
This caused him to laugh and he didn't know what to do at this point. His attacks faltererd and he became easier to dodge and block. He seemed to be taking it easy on her now. 3/7
Did he finally understand that no matter what he did the outcome would be the same? That no matter how hard he fought she would do anything to defeat hiim? Or was he trying to make her complacent at this moment? 4/7
Grinning like a demon she moved foward against him. With smoke pellets in both hands she was going to beat him very soon. Throwing them down upon the ground she began to concentrate upon their technique. 5/7
"You can't kill me demon. No matter how hard you try you'll never be able to kill me." He proclaimed against her as he stood still. Allowing her to try this new technique against him. 6/7
Opening her eyes against him it seemed nothing happened at all. It was rather confusing at first to the Iron Jashinist yet he moved forward swinging his scythe at her. 7/7
Grabbing out three of the pellets she held them close while focusing on her chakra again. She was about to finish this. She had to combine two techniques in order to do it however. 1/7
The moment the scythe hit her he laughed hysterically only to be dumbfounded. His scythe cut through an image of her and it disappated. Instead she appeared to have side stepped it at an impossible speed. 2/7
"How the hell are you doing that?" He asked her as real concern appeared upon his face. Was he actually worried about losing this fight? Only time was goign to tell as she put everything in motion. 3/7
Rolling the three pellets around in her hand she continued to infuse chakra within them. Slowly and steadily feeding them to a specific point. To attempt a technique that would be highly useful to her. 4/7
With her narrowed eyes still upon her enemy he swung yet again. The same result occured again as she appeared to side step it even though he already hit her. Confusion claimed his soul and she learned at that point she won. 5/7
It was too late for him to turn the tides of the battle against her. He had given the Jashinist a second shot at life and he wasted it. She even gave him an Iron Sand body to make him stronger. 6/7
Throwing the smoke pellets down she began to furiously use hand signs. Then his eyes widened as she seemingly disappeared when the smoke cleared. The Iron Jashinist began to shake in fear for once. 7/7
Grabbing out a few more smoke bombs from her sack she stalked him. Watching him look around with much worry within his eyes. Did he truly fear her at this point? 1/6
Perhaps he was simply trying to fool her into attacking him. To attempt to reveal her location to him so that he could kill her. That would make more sense than anything else. 2/6
As she slowly walked around him her foot steps were almost silent. Meaning he could barely hear her let alone locate her. "Come on out demon!" He shouted frantically at her. 3/6
She was right earlier at noticing his fear. He was truly frightened for his life and so he should be. She was about to claim it for her own. 4/6
Merely trying to find the right spot to attack him to finish him. She had him within her web of stealth. Showing the art of a true shinobi within this point and time. 5/6
Then at the last second she threw smoke pellets at his feet. Smoke filled the area and she rushed behind him. With a single swing of her knife she decapitated him with ease finishing him. 6/6
At the end of it his iron sand body dispersed and she spat on it leaving the dojo. [exit]
The familiar smell of sweat, blood and sand filled Nari with a sense of excitement as he entered the dojo. He loved to train, loved testing himself and overcoming. As before with the shopping plaza he turned and extended his arms outward with a chuckle,"TADA. Welcome to the dojo, currently my second favorite place in the village. Everything your heart desires to better yourself in combat all in one easy to reach place. So Taijutsu scrolls are over that-a-way, Buki, if your so inclined over there." Each time he pointed to a small row of scrolls on each side of the dojo as he spoke,"I will be right over here working with ma bone whips if you need me. If you need any advice or anything of the like please dont hesitate to ask."

| I am my ladies weapon & I have always be thus | But that is not all I am |
Sonyo nodded at Nari and then walked off, setting off to her own little corner of the dojo, looking around the place. She walked over to the scrolls, picking up a scroll on academy arts. The scroll was about redirections and disarming your opponent, and Sonyo took a moment to sit down and read it. It was interesting, and soon Sonyo found herself intrigued. The first thing she would learn basics of being fluid. She got up, focusing on the speed of her reflexes as she snapped her hand in and out, and testing her agility as she moved from one stance in to another. [ 1 // 4 ]
She quickly got a hand of her body and how it worked, and she took a moment to just stand there and take a deep breath. She moved in to a pose, asking one of the people at the Dojo to come over at her. Asking the man to rush her and try to punch her, she got in to a stance. One hand was risen up to face level and straightened so the palm faced the male like a wooden board. One of her feet were positioned slightly back to give her balance and her other hand was placed slightly behind the other. Her fingers were relaxed in their position, and she waited. [ 2 // 4 ]
The man rushed her quickly and she sidestepped just slightly. She moved her arm that was behind the leading hand directly against the back of that hand, supporting it. With the leading hand she redirected the man's punch just slightly off to the side and down, sending him sprawling to the ground just slightly behind her. She let out a long breath, then straightened up and asked the man to rush at her once more. Disgruntled, the man agreed, going back to where he was standing again. [ 3 // 4 ]
Sonyo asked the man to come at her once more after she had retaken her stance, and the man agreed and rushed her. She moved as he moved, switching her body so that it was her side facing him instead of her front. As he reached her, she grabbed his hand as he reached out to punch her and she turned, pivoting the man over her shoulder. He was in the air for only a moment before she threw him to the ground, and he hit it with a loud THUD. Sonyo started appologizing over and over, then helped the man up and dismissed him. [ 4 // 4; Soft Physical C-rank learned ]
Sonyo took a moment before calling yet another person over to her, this time a female. Sonyo gave her the run down, she was going to try and set her off balance and redirect her attacks and the female was to do her best to avoid that. Sonyo watched the female move a bit away before returning to the same stance as before, both hands up but loose and relaxed with one foot positioned slightly behind the other for balance. She cleared her mind, and focused. She gave the female the right to start, and waited. [ 1 // 6 ]
The female rushed her, faster and more agile than the man she had fought before. It caught her off guard and she froze, and the girl landed a solid punch straight to her face. Sonyo stumbled back a bit, her hand instictively reaching up to check her nose. After a few moments she sighed in relief as she confirmed it wasn't broken. The girl started to apologize but sonyo only shook her head and asked her to come at her once more, this time asking her to aim the punch to her sternum. The girl noded, and retook her previous position. [ 2 // 6 ]
Sonyo went back to her stance, nodding to the girl. Having been given the permission to come at her, the girl rushed Sonyo, However she was used to her speed now, she had seen it, and she was ready. Sonyo waited to the female to reach her before pointing her leading hand down. Her fingers connected with the female's fist and she pushed it down, redirecting the punch forcefully down and to the opposite side. The female, caught by surprise, hit the ground and rolled a bit away before coming to a stop. [ 3 // 6 ]
The other female, now pumped, got back and rushed sonyo once more, but sonyo was already in movement. With her back facing the girl, she turned so her side was facing the female she she came. The female's punch missed where it had been aiming and Sonyo clapsed her hands together, driving her elbow in to the female's arm. The collision sent the female off to the side, unhurt. The elbow hit wasn't hard enough to do much damage, but enough to send her off balance. Sonyo breathed in deeply through her nose, then let it out of her mouth. [ 4 // 6 ]
Helping the female up, Sonyo asked her to come at her next with a kunai. With a questioning look, the girl asked her why, and sonyo responded that she wanted to just disarm her. The girl smiled, then nodded. They retook their previous positions and Sonyo nodded to the girl to rush her once more. The girl took out her kunai, leveling it with her face, and waited for the right time. Both females stood there, waiting, and then suddenly the girl was in motion. [ 5 // 6 ]
The female rushed sonyo, bringing the kunai up to slash at her. Sonyo, however, moved forward instead of back like a normal person would. She brought up her leading hand, grabbing the female's hand. She used the girl's momentum against her, sidestepping the girl as he energy carried her forward. She other girl gasped as sonyo twisted her arm behind her back and reflexibly her hand let of the kunai knife. It clattered to the ground, and Sonyo sighed in relief. She gently let the girl go before making sure that she didn't hurt her. The girl assured Sonyo she was fine and she said goodbye. Sonyo rolled her shoulders and mulled over what she would be doing next.. [ 6 // 6; Soft Physical B-rank learned ]

Nari watched with a smile as she went off to train and now it was his turn to do the same thing. Making sure she did not have a clean line of sight to him he sighed and formed a seal before reaching up above the back of his neck. After a moment a pair of small white stubs appeared. Grasping each stub in in hand he sighed as he ribbed them from his back, a pair of segmented, sharpened whips made of bone. It wasnt the first time he had used that move and it surely wouldnt be the last.
Taking a deep breath he approached a ring of dummies in full view of everyone else. Taking up a loose stance in the center of the ring he held his right hand whip across his body parallel with his left. After a second he ripped his whips overhead and slammed them into the dummy to his right as they dug and ripped into the dummy in a slash of straw. [Small Weapon: Spinal Whip] D-Rank
Sliding his left leg out Nari's abdominal muscles flexed and bunched under his armor as they overrode the momentum completely before reversing it back to the other side where the twin whips bit into the dummy again causing a mirror of the dummies opposite in another splash of straw. Stepping forward he brought the whips overhead in a wide circle before bringing them down in a glancing blow across the front of the circle. [Small Weapon: Spinal Whip] C-Rank
Spinning in place he separated the whips returning one to each side and retook his position in the center of the ring. After a moment he lashed out at the base of the dummy with the right ripping it to the ground while the left came slamming down into the dummy in a beautiful explosion of straw. [Small Weapon: Spinal Whip] B-Rank
Now for something a bit more complicated. Using his natural agility nari flipped backwards and brought his whips up with him carving lines into the two dummies at the one and elven oclock positions. Finishing his rotation mid air he lashed out with the bone whip wrapping it around one of the pillars giving it a yank. [1/2]
The yank propelled him forward along the wall and around back towards the dummies at the six oclock position. With a twist of the wrist he freed his whip from the pillar and unleashed it upon the dummy before him. A thunderous crack filled the air as the tips of both whips broke the sound barrier. The whip was followed closely a moment after by the second whip carving twin lines in the dummy down to the wooden frame shattering it in a beautiful and elegant display of destruction. Despite his elegance Nari was very very deadly. [2/2] [Small Weapon: Spinal Whip] A-Rank

| I am my ladies weapon & I have always be thus | But that is not all I am |
Sonyo slid her fan out of it's hidden sheath under her sleeve, then walked over to the wall, put back the soft physical training scroll, then picked up a scroll for Akira style. She put her fan off to the side and began to read the scroll. Each one of the techniques that followed had a stance that had to be used with them, and there were several stances. It looked like she had to learn the stances before learning the techniques, however. That made it easier for her, though. [ 1 // 6 ]
She put down the scroll and picked up her fan before getting to her feet. With a quick flick, she opened her fan and started. With her feet close together and her arms to her side, she began to dance. Her movements were quick and precise, but it had emotion behind it. She had trained for years to learn how to put a story behind movement; it was hard to make people feel emotion without speaking first. [ 2 // 6 ]
Sonyo's dance was full of joy, like the joy a child would feel. It was the story of happiness and getting everything you could ever want. It was the story of falling in love, of finding a person that makes you whole. It was told through the soft smile on her face and the fluid movements of her arms. Her steps were calm but quick; yet silent. [ 3 // 6 ]
She made a few strikes with her fan, then twirled and continued the dance. The tone of the dance changed as she went in to the second stage of the dance; it was a dance about the pain of loss. The person in the dance had lost the one who made them feel so amazing, the person who filled them with wonder and joy. The sorrow was almost palpable, and Sonyo's smile had turned sad. Her face was only one that could be worn by one who missed someone they loved very much, she was a good actress.[ 4 // 6 ]
She stopped to take a breath, looking over to see if she could see nari. She couldn't, but she could still imagine what he was doing. She wondered what type of Taijutsu or Kenjutsu he was brushing up on, she wondered if he would show her. Maybe she would ask him later, when they went to that place he wanted so desperately to take her. It would be nice, she was excited. [ 5 // 6 ]
She started trying out a few slashes, pushing her agility. She tried to quickly stab and slash at the air with her fan. She slowly sank back in to the stance, closing her eyes and meditating for a moment. Sonyo controlled her breathing, making it slow down, and then snapped her fan closed in her hand. She just stood there for a few moments in till she was calm again, and then moved on to the rest of the techniques. [ 5 // 5;; Akira of speed learned ]
Sonyo opened her eyes and then quickly brought up her fan. She let it stay in the air like that, just holding her fan closed in front of her. With a flick of her wrist, she brought her hand to the side. With that motion, her fan slid open, slashing at the air. It was as if she had backhanded an invisible foe with her fan. Sonyo practiced the technique once more before moving onwards to the nest. [ 1 // 1; The First Akira: Duelist's Swing ]
Sonyo returned the fan to her side, then readied herself. As quick as she could, sonyo brought up her fan, opening it at the same time. She made a backhand motion with it, allowing the momentum to carry her weight. As she spun, she brought her foot up, delivering a roundhouse kick to the air. She landed the spin, took a deep breath, then returned once again to the stance she had held prior. [ 1 // 1; The First Akira: Brute's Swing ]
Sonyo moved over to weapon's rack, grabbing another steel-plated fan off of it. She moved back to her position, the two fans held open at her side. She took a deep breath then, moving forward, brought the fans up in front of her body. They slashed at the air, making an X shape where they sliced. Sonyo enjoyed how it looked, how it felt. She tried the technique once more before resting and taking a small break. [ 1 // 1; The First Akira: Crossing Rise ]

Sonyo put her fan away and then closed her eyes, concentrating, meditating. She was focusing on drawing her chakra to her feet, in much of the same way as the tree climbing technique. She made sure her breathing was deep and slow, like waves. She then opened her eyes back up and looked down at her feet. She could imagine the chakra there, imagine it swirling around her feet like a storm. [ 1 // 2 ]
The drew her foot slightly back, taking a deep breath. She then focused on pushing all of her chakra against the ground as she took a step. Sonyo moved much quicker, the chakra propelling her quickly in one direction. She stumbled to a stop, wide eyed. She hadn't been prepared for that type of speed. Shaking her head, she tried once more, forcing her chakra in to the ground and she stepped forward. She sped forward and this time landed quite gracefully. Sonyo shoved her bangs out of her hair before continuing. [ 2 // 2; The First Akira: The First Step Learned ]
Sonyo went back to the scroll to get the next set of techniques, then realized she was already on to the next stance. She read over the material carefully, making sure to make mental notes on the important parts. She then marked in her mind all of the techniques she wanted to learn before putting the scroll back on the ground. She took out her fan once more before beginning. [ 1 // 7 ]
Sonyo moved a bit away from the wall where the scroll was before getting in to the stance. She slightly bent her knees while slowly bringing her arms up in front of her, this was a stance she was more familiar with. This stance was more like the stance she took before beginning to dance, one she had practiced many times. With something like an unsounded cue, she was in motion. Her steps were very slow, very deliberate as she moved. [ 2 // 7 ]
Her movements were so slow and so very smoothly placed that her hair barely moved as she did. Unlike last time, when she had her eyes closed, her eyes were open for this stance. Her face was one of calm, her features relaxed and soft. Her hands weaved softly through the air as she moved, as fluid as water and as calm as rain. Balance was as much about inner peace as it was about outer peace. [ 3 // 7 ]
But was she at peace with herself? She had failed to really think about that, was she at peace with everything that happened since she had started that mission that day? Finding out that there was a whole operation going on under the village that she had grew up in, that things weren't as she thought... she wasn't sure if she was at peace with that. Lady Yura's dehydrated and malnourished face still haunted her, mostly because that could have been as easily her as it was that poor woman. Lady Yura was just a normal woman who had stumbled upon something and she almost died because of it, she wasn't unlike Sonyo. [ 4 // 7 ]
It was probably then that Sonyo had realized how blind she had been. What kind of ninja could she be if she couldn't have noticed that the UHV was more than the charade they put on? She stumbled slightly, her feet crossing over eachother. Sonyo let out a groan, then got back in to the original stance before trying once more. Again she started her slow and deliberate movements, taking a deep breath to calm herself down. [ 5 // 7 ]
She hadn't noticed how much the thoughts had started to work her up, and she realized she was almost in tears. She let herself calm down as she danced, it was alright to be blind. She was only a genin, only starting. It was okay to make mistakes, she realized that now. But she had done something, she had saved Lady Yura, she had made up for her shortcomings. She knew she had to leave all of that stuff in the past, that it wouldn't do any good poisoning her future. [ 6 // 7 ]
Sonyo felt a weight coming off her shoulders as she came to peace at everything that had happened. It would be okay, and she had a new life here; one where she could make a difference in what she did. Her movements, already slow and precise, became even more so as she felt peace echo through her body. Her fans cleanly cut the air and she stepped with unwavering balance. She made one last motion before sinking back in to the stance she had started in, closing her fans. [ 7 // 7; The Second Akira: The Akira of Balance ]
Sonyo drew in a breath, then opened her fans once more. She called over one of the helpers at the dojo, asking them to attack her repeatedly so she could practice a maneuver that had to do with her style. The helper nodded and walked over to her, bowing to her, before taking their position. Sonyo locked eyes with the male in front of her, waiting. She was ready for him to strike. [ 1 // 3 ]
Within the time it took someone to blink, the man was in motion. She drew her foot to the side, letting herself begin to sink. The man launched a punch for her, putting his weight behind it. Sonyo smiled as she sunk down in to the position, but she had gotten cocky. She hadn't slid down enough to be fully in to position and the man's punch connected with the side of her head, sending her stumbling back. [ 2 // 3 ]
The man got worried, asking her if she was okay. She only nodded and insist he'd try again. The man, though hesitant, agreed and moved back to his spot. Sonyo got up and then motioned for the man once more, and without hesitance he launched for her again. This time Sonyo quickly slid her foot to the side and sunk down, holding her fans out to the side. The man's punch missed her completely and sonyo sighed in relief before thanking the man and sending him off. [ 3 // 3; The Second Akira: Dancer's Reprieve ]

Sonyo took a quick moment to catch her breath before walking off and finding Narimoi. It didn't take her fairly long and she popped her head around a corner. Sadly, she must have caught the man off guard because she had the chance to see his spinal whips. Her eyes got wide, not in fear, but in worry. She could see the spot of blood on his neck where he had pulled them out, but she couldnt imagine how that wouldn't hurt. She realized it would probably hurt his feelings to bring it up, so the female cleared her throat and walked over, pretending not to pay attention. "Hey Nari, do you think we could take a stop at the Academy? I have something I wanna try."

Well now that was something he did not expect. He was expecting her to finish way before he did so that he would have plenty of time to hide his whips. Yet now that the "cat was out of the bag" he sighed and compressed the two whips together before pressing the whip into his arm where it molded back into his body and broke down in his bloodstream as pure calcium. Rubbing his neck a bit he turned to her and began,"I was hoping you wouldn't find out about my abilities like this. It was something I was born with and just learned how to master. I know it can seem.. unnatural and it causes me to drink lots and lots of milk, but its what I am. Its best we get this out of the way though, before we go to the academy do you have any questions about it? Is there anything you want to know?" He was a tad nervous honestly he had only told one person about his bloodline and that was the kazekage.

Sonyo looked down and bit her lip as Nari asked her if she had any questions about his bloodline. She didn't want to be disrepectful or ask him questions he had already heard a million times before so she carefully though about what she was going to say. She finally gathered the courage to look back up at Nari, taking a deep breath. "Does it hurt?" she finally said, letting out that breath, "I saw the blood on your neck where you pulled out the bone did it... did it hurt really bad? It looked like it did..." Sonyo looked away again, hugging herself. "Also that's pretty cool.. your bloodline. It's unique, unlike mine. I'm just worried about whether or not you're in pain when you use it... It just seems so painful."

A soft sigh escaped his lips as nari slowly closed the distance between the two. After a second he slowly wrapped his arms around her pulling her into a soft embrace,"No, oddly enough it does not hurt me. But your concern for me means more to me than you know." He was speaking the truth, kaguya medical physiology was different from normal humans. They had a layer of bone directly under their skin above the nerves which lay over their muscles that are then tied to their original bones. Looking her over for a moment after hugging her he smiled a bit, she was so beautiful to him.
