"Good one."
Tokido laughed lightly as Aoshi stepped forward, a hand reaching out and grasping his own as he helped him to stand. Their size may have been quite different, but the feral counter from the Uchiha had spoken volumes. The two gave a gentle chuckle before Tokido took his place to the side once more, their Master approaching from Aoshi's south and placing a hand on his shoulder. "Good. We'll move on to the Speed Step. But for this exercise, I'll allow another one of our students to show you the technique. Eru?" she called. Aoshi turned and watched as a scarlet-haired woman stood, donning a simple training attire of lavender and gray. Green eyes met his own as she approached with swift stride, her hourglass frame more than alluring as every male within the room appeared to be watching.
"Now THAT'S a kunoichi.." one of the students muttered.
Aoshi said nothing as the rest of them laughed, Su Feng waving the matter off with a hand. Eru's eyes never let Aoshi's own as she moved into the Ready Stance. It was in this moment that he'd resolved to not allow a distraction to overcome his desire to learn. He'd come too far....there was far too much responsibility involved...far too much at stake to allow anyone to deter his shinobi way. There needed to be no words as he settled into his own Ready Stance, Feng's impressed smile flashing for seconds. "Now, then....the Speed Step is a maneuver that involves high speed lunge and movement toward the enemy. Once you have reached the point of attack, the blade will be drawn simultaneously."
The Uchiha nodded, visualizing the attack as if he were already in its circumstances. Eru's footing was proper, the grip upon her katana more than absolute. Her hair fell down around her shoulders and further, a single band typing it off into a ponytail. Soft, full lips were pursed together as she regarded him. "I'm going to attack from the right hip to the left hip. Think you can keep up with that?" Eru asked. The sincerity of her question was almost enough to surprise him. But with no pride to send a retort back with, Aoshi merely nodded and awaited her movement. Feng provided them room as she maneuvered meters to the east. And without hesitation, without warning -
Eru attacked.
Her movement was swift as she appeared to jettison instantly forward, the fluidity of her blade raising above her head catching the Uchiha in a mild amazement. He could see the base of the sword rise above her head as its elongated prowess would follow. And within a second's time, she had invaded the space between them. She brought the blade downward in a motion that would allow her to swing it in a frenzied way, but it was the control of her sword that threw him off. Masterfully, it diverted its trajectory and moved to the left side of his visage. So swift was the stroke of her blade that it almost needed to be seen through his peripheral, the glint of silver hinting at the fact that she would make full contact with him.
But her blade was brought to stay.
Aoshi's countenance never changed as the blade lingered only inches from having made contact, his curiosity piqued. More-so with the technique than anything, the two of them remained in that suspended animation for moments. They had greeted each other by way of the sword, and now there was simply the time it took to register the mutual respect. Su Feng stepped in as Eru pulled her blade back, sheathing it before giving her mock opponent a nod. "And now, it is your turn to attempt the same on Eru. You have watched it, as have we all. That is the first part of the learning process. Now it's time for you to try." Without faltering, Aoshi nodded. His hand hovered along the Kiba blade. He was ready.
