~Kenji~

Kenji shortly arrived at the village gates. He was still new and offically a genin ready to take on the world. He held his strut high and was ready to do anything training that was necessarily.

"Alright then, I Kenji am like officially ready to become a ninja!"

"That does sound like a good idea." Korumo agreed. His eyes drifted towards the weights that Master Rein had given him during the time that they were moving out to Kirigakure, wondering if they would increase the pace at witch his muscular system awakened, or if it would hinder him all together. I suppose I could wait until training begins to find out, meanwhile I still need to advance to the next stage of my taijutsu, and who better to train with than Axel.

"So how do you suggest we start then?" He asked Axel, not familiar with the many exercises available to training taijutsu. A breeze brushed past them, sifting through the grass and taking the smell of humid air between them. Perhaps it will rain? Korumo thought to himself, shortly distracted as he realized that the majority of his techniques (ninjutsu wise) would be hindered should there be a downpour.

Even if the rain began though, he would be training in taijutsu, his only concern would be if they were assualted. If they were to enter a fight in the rain now, Korumo would have a weak body, and only one jutsu of assualt at his diposal. He could only hope for a swift recovery.

"Simple...dodge or block my strikes," Axel told him as he suddenly dashed forward. Chakra exploded from the soles of his feet as the power lunged him forward. "Starting now!" Axel exclaimed as he came close, bringing his fist back and launching it at the right side of Korumo's face.

Korumo dipped low to the ground in a crouch, and used his chakra in a similar way as he had in his water walking training to flow chakra from his feet. The layer of chakra would have helped him keep steady upon the liquid surfaces, but upon solid ground it served as a buffer between him and the dirt. Without the traction of soil beneath him, Korumo shifted his weight during his low dip into a crouch in order to slide swiftly to one side. This allowed him to evade his skilled opponent without using much physical strength. Even so, he still remained weak, by both his enduring of his sickness, and his lengthy time spent in suspended animation, only muscle memory kept him from loosing balance.

"Well as long as you weren't holding back on that one, I think this should be a fairly simple exercise." Korumo taunted, hopping that to increase the already higher difficulty training (for this genin) would bring him back to strength quicker.

(Put in your application for chuunin exams and request me as your partner ^_^)

"I would never hold back on you," Axel said as his momentum continued past Korumo. Placing his foot forward, Axel spun his body around, sliding in the dirt. Coming around, Axel hopped up into the air, bringing his right foot around him as he extended it upwards. With his leg high in the air, Axel aimed the heel of his foot at Korumo's shoulder, bringing his leg down with considerable force. Should it connenct, Korumo would no doubt have a dislocated shoulder to deal with. Regardless of this, the reason why Axel made the best training partner was because he could simply heal wounds should his partner suffer any injuries.

(thanks! I'll go do that after this post)

Korumo attempted to maneuver out of harms way, his ideal motion would have been a somersault motion without forward movement, using the ax kick as nothing more than a motion of his own rotation. Unfortunately the chakra from his feet was slow to fade, and his feet connected with the ground all too late.

"GAAH!" He cried from the pain he received from the forceful kick. He herd a disturbing popping noise arise from his shoulder, and his arm seemed to sink to the ground without his consent. "I'm not certain, but I think my arm is out of commission." Korumo remarked, attempting a grin through the pain. He had honestly never faced a fight that had injured him so. He had been quick to leave the academy, and Master Rein had gone fairly easy on him for his first rounds of taijutsu training. Even so, it was clear that Axel would be the better choice for quick development, with pain as an incentive to not be hit.

"I don't suppose you have a bandage on you...do you?" Korumo asked, hoping to keep up the work, even as weak as he was.

"You've still got much to improve my friend...and I don't exactly hold back," Axel stated as he walked up to him, flashing through five seals as he did so. Placing his hand upon Korumo's shoulder, Axel quickly snapped the arm back in place. The chakra flowing through his palm was going into Korumo, diminishing the pain that he was feeling just now. Axel closed his eyes as he focused upon the Chiyute, healing his wound until he felt that it was complete. After another minute, Axel opened his eyes once more satisfied once again. Turning his back on Korumo, Axel turned back after placing some distance between the two. "This is probably why I make the best trainer...now attack me with your taijutsu!" Axel commanded as he took a defensive stance.

(What taijutsu style was it that you wanted to learn again? XD)

(well technically he's supposed to be learning Shuurai Tekken Do
[Way of the Lightning Strike Fist] but he's still quite unpolished in his fighting style, so he kind of uses unorthodox forms of fighting at the moment. I've already trained past the first stage and he's wearing weights that Rein gave him. biggrin )

"Well, can't say your wrong on that part," Korumo sighed as he was relieved of his pain. "Thank you, that's very handy. Come to think of it, I guess that's why you don't have to hold back." Korumo smiled at his good fortune. He watched patiently as Axel backed away from him, noticing as well that the healing he'd recieved had awakened his muscles in the arm that was once dislocated.

"Alright!" Korumo rushed in, dipping low before he reached 3 ft of distance between them and sweeping his leg through the grass. He hardly expected for his opponent to be taken by the move, so he shifted his weight in order to send a kick with his following leg straight into the air.

Axel watched as Korumo waved fluidly, closing the distance between them. However, his muscles were still soft, they weren't rigid enough. The reason for the Shuurai Tekken Do was to create the fastest strikes. However, it can only be attained through rigid muscles and fluid movements, not an easy feat. As Axel took a step back, he held his hand out, chakra seeping out of his palm as he caught Korumo's leg by the ankle. "Your movements, they are indeed fluid...there's no doubt that you've got that down. Your muscles however, they're too relaxed, too soft. You have to strengthen, make them rigid. This will in turn increase the speed of your strikes," Axel stated as he let go and walked several paces back once more. Turning back around to face Korumo, Axel took a deep breath and sighed. "Again."

(Really glad I kept up with the conversation in the exams listing *whew* I got swapped teams twice! It really stinks that We didn't get put on the same team though, that would have been really good for our teamwork strategy)

Korumo listened intently upon his far more experienced friend's advice, before dipping into his conscious to attempt to bring about the edge he had once held. I know that I've been within suspended animation for a long time, with the dragon's ale on top of it, but right now my body needs to wake up! I need to regain my strength if I'm going to improve.

"Ok, lets give this another shot." Korumo once more removed the space between him and his companion, this time taking a strong stance and leaning into the hurled fist striking with bicep, triceps, forearm and shoulder, with an addition of abdominal advance, sending the full force of his upper body into his single strike. His stance served to create a base from which the energy could propel, and though he did not bend his arm out to it's full length (as he was taught) and his muscles still bore no energy compared to what they once had, Korumo supplemented with the force of the propelled weights upon his forearms. The obvious strike was once more not enough to successfully send a jolt through Axel however; thus Korumo saw it fit to throw an abdominal aimed elbow, before reversing momentum into a chest cavity strike. This was followed by a high kick towards the neck region. Of course this was his plotted path, but if Axel decided to stray, or counter strike, Korumo would then be forced to react with no true plan in mind.

Until then however, this would most certainly due. He would use the weights as a force for him, rather then against him, until his strength recovered.

(you know if you want you could train in Axel's chosen taijutsu style while they're sparring. Also I now have enough posts to start the next stage of training.)

(Actually, as it stands now, I can't train Axel in anything else until he reaches jounin level XD and you've achieved stage 2 now. However, you're not a taijutsu specialist right? That means that you can't go to stage 3 which is the chuunin stage until you reach chuunin)

Axel was rather surprised by the vast improvement Korumo showed so quickly. It got to the point that Axel had to focus the palms of his hands with pure chakra. As the first strike came at him, Axel kept his palm open, blocking the strike with minimal effort due to the padding that his chakra gave him. Axel held his hand out a second time, blocking the aimed elbow just as he was forced to take a single step back due to the force of the strike. Axel proceeded to block the final chest cavity strike just in time as Korumo spun and performed a high kick towards his neck. Taking another step back, Axel watched as the kick was just inches away from him. "That's enough..." Axel quickly said as he took another step back and took in deep breaths. "Whew...that was really good Korumo..." Axel finished as the chakra within the palms of his hands dissipated. "Here take this," he told him as he handed Korumo some currency. "Remove your weights and go grab something to eat for you and me. Bring it back here and we'll eat together, I want you to move your body without the weights which is why I'm sending you out."
