training feild

A-ah!
*Jumps up suddenly backwards, doing a few hand-signs. Suddenly, a black hole appears behind her, and it seals shut with her inside, both her and the hole disappearing without a trace*

Hm? *slides one foot to the side, looking in all directions in paranoia*
Panicking already, huh...
*both arms are completely engulfed in fire, ready to strike*

*a gap rips open almost 20 feet in the air above Yashako, Koishi plummeting out and shooting irregular razor-like winds from her extended fingertips. Then, flips to raise one foot and slam down the other onto Yashaka's shoulder, heel first*

*the flames grow due to the oxygen the air has given it, but lands on one knee in response to the powerful blow to her shoulder*
Agh... *swiftly grabs Koishi's foot and sends her into the ground*

*feels a searing pain in her leg, but then is greeted by the hard ground, nearly stunning her*
A-ah!! *pauses for a millisecond, but then covers her foot in hard rock and quickly uses it to kick into Yashako's other leg, then sliding back and standing again, this time encasing both hands and both feet in rock*

*ghasps and slightly falls off balence before catching herself, and adding a burst of intensity to her flaming hands to launch her back again*
Clever girl...
*noticing that they're now not far away, sprints to Koishi, baring her fists and sending fiery tremors across the grass with every step*

*avoids the heavier blows, but the nearby heat becomes unbearable. A gap appears underneath her, and she has quickly fallen inside to the comforting darkness of the absence of space*

We're both getting desperate.
But I'm ready for you, now. I know your game. *smirks, dimming the flames engulfing her arms and takes a step back*

*suddenly a gap opens in front of Yashako, revealing Koishi extremely close and sporting a rocky hand, no doubt ready to hit a pressure point near the base of her neck*
It's over...!!!

*Suddenly kneels down extremely quickly, drawing back her fist and hitting Koishi square beneath the chest. Then, jumps back and gets back into a fighting position.*

*Flies back almost three feet, gripping at her torso, inhaling rapidly*
I can't... breathe. She's hit me square in the solar plexus, and hard.
*Motions Yashako to hold off, getting into a fetal position and gripping her stomach, eyes wide*
*soon regains breath, panting heavily* You win.... today. *forlorn and defeated tone*

*breathing heavily and sweating as well* You going to be alright? *put her hands on her knees, and walks over to help Koishi up, offering a sportsman-like hand*

*regains her composure and takes Yashako's hand, using it for support to stand up* I should be... *remembers their previous conversation* ...until you decide to give me hell over the next two days. *sigh* I guess I'll be paying for dinner...

We'll leave that until after dinner. *wink* But with that being said, that was one of the best cat-fights I've had in a while. *grins and slaps Koishi on the back* I understand you're more of a swordsman than a hand-to-hand sort of person, but we'll leave that out of the record books. For now, it's my victory and I'm sticking to it. So, oh Shi-tama, slave 'o mine... where shall we be dining?

Ouch, please don't. *rubs the back of her shoulder gingerly*
Rub it in why don't you. *sweatdrop, gives a half-smile*
I was thinking about Ramen. Is that okay...?

Sounds good to me. Oh, oh... but from now on, you need to call me Yasha-sama. And I will call you... *strokes fake beard evilly* Oh well. You can still be Shi-tan. Let's roll! *walks off to the ramen shop*

*sigh* It's because you've given me a demeaning nickname in the first place... *follows after her*

*appears out of the darkness and claps in his hands*
nice fight girls.... nice fight... I could expand my taijutsu only by watching....
In exchange I'll pay the next bowls of ramen that you'll eat....

Oh, it's you again. It's a real shame we couldn't have a proper conversation last time.
It's okay though, you don't have to if you don't want to. Although, no one's stopping you... *scratches the back of her head*
All we really need is to keep the damage to the grounds hush-hush until we can get it fixed. *sweatdrop*

*hits Yashako on the shoulder lightly and whispers* Weren't you taught the manners to refuse money, not encourage it?
*in a normal speaking voice again* And what do you mean we...?
*slightly bows to Julian* As much as I'd like to decline your offer to pay for the meal, you're free to join us.

oh..ok...
*turns around and throws a dagger right between the eyes of a rabbit*
... sorry... my damn reflexes....

*looks at it for a second*
Well, no use wasting it... Do you like your meat medium rare or medium well, Koishi? I can't remember. *trots over to inspect the dead rabbit*

PLEASE... just leave it. Don't touch it. You don't know where it's been. It wouldn't be the first time you've just tried to eat whatever disease-carrying furry little creature had just died.
Again, please excuse her.

No problem... I was eating those things raw in former times when I was part of the resistance... but mostly I was eating rats....living in the sewers with sixhundred other people and nothing to eat sure is hard...

nevermind...so what do you wanna do now?

Ouch... sounds like hell on earth.
We were actually planning on going out to eat just now, and who knows what we'd do afterwards. Would you like to come?
