Training of Toshi

Quickly she is atop him , sheathed blade at his neck and foot on his stoumach , though gently "You did....better than you did before"

Toshiro was clearly blushing now she had him so thuroughtly caught and easily pinned under her boot, but he was able to make himself focus and respond coherently"My reflexes are better than my deliberate actions" He admited

"Hum , it's true , your technique is complete toad shit , but that's what we're here to fix eyecandy"

"Can I get up now?" The blushing toshiro mumbled

"....Do you want to?"

"Well we are in a lesson right now" Toshiro began to collect himself " and we are in public" he murmured under his breath, he couldnt ask her to keep him pinned so easily while poeple could be watching honor was at stake.

She nods and steps off , allowing him to stand.

Toshiro got back up he had never met a girl who would do that just as she had probably not met a man who would willingly let her "You uh... you like doing that?" he asked making sure no one was in earshot, before he got back into his stance clearing his mind again

"Take a guess " She replies , though a smirk is forming.

Toshiro looked a little embarrassed but also felt a little relieved, that could have been awkward had she not. He surveyed her stance and came up with a plan... He feints for her leg with his blade.

She parries and quickly dashes into his guard.

He moves the blade just before she touches it, angling it so it is about to peirce her gut he grins

She nods slowly "Better I'll admit , but you've forgotten something pretty boy" She wags her finger , the smirk returning.

"What is that?" Toshi wondered confused

And then she whaps him hard on his crown "You forgot that just holding it to my gut means nothing , and you forgot to never put your guard down"

He was stunned for a sec but recovered and began slashing to try and make her back off

She parries it easily , putting him off balance then advances , whapping at the inside of his knee to unstabilize him than slamming the pommel of her blade across his jaw "We'll need for you to start putting on some weight as well."

There he was with his signature technique, falling on his ass again "Not as much as miyamoto right?" he joked spitting out some blood. He handled this stuff surprisingly well for a tentai.

"I am not your ronin friend "She replies calmly with  a shake of her head as she turns and gets walking "Follow me , let's try a little exercise "

"What kind of exercise?" To him it just meant the use or application of a faculty, right, or process. As neither he nor anyone he grew up around ever worked out or knew the workout lingo.

"You'll see" She replies as she gestures for him to stop following her and heads into a local pottery.

TOshiro followed her curious to see where this was leading

A while later she steps out , carring a massive pile of cement bocks in her hands "Follow me , and try to keep up"

"I... alright" Toshiro said and asked "Why are you carrying those?"

"Exercise"
