The Dojo was a small and rather comforting, as it was just about 10 PM as the street lamps could be seen just beyond the open doorframe. Amira had spent a few hours cleaning up as she scanned over the 10 meter by 10 meter dojo. It was a simple room that was right across the street to what was an old dry dock in the small port town in the Land of Lightning. She had been making an expedition out this way to speak with the Raikage, but alas she had spent a few days being held down by the storm that had just passed only a day prior. She donned a blue Judogi Styled Gi with her black Nidan belt and thick quilting at the bottom showing as she slipped her shoes off, storing her cloths in the locker at the front of the dojo. The Tami mat felt comfortable on the feet as she walked over to the center, looking to her right as she noticed the wooden Bokken, Tanto, and Nagitana lining the wall. She had only been visiting this dojo for a few days now, but it had become a fairly familiar sight.

The streets outside had begun to quiet down as she exhaled, relaxing a bit as she tied her hair back into pony tail preparing to do the finishing drill before going back to the inn that she had been staying at with her entourage. She was a Nidan Judoka, so she was familiar with being inside of a dojo, but it was hard to focus with the smell of the tea house down the street and the flickering candles that were still light around the four pillars that held the dojo up. She knelt down at the center of the said poles, thinking about everything that had happened the past few weeks, keeping a calm mind as she listened and waited for whatever might be coming.

Shiki smiled as he tied his belt around his Gi. As he straitened out his uniform and made sure that his belt with his appropriate belt signifying his status as a master in two different styles of the art of the sword saint. He still had a lot more to learn but he was very proficient with the blade as it stood. Shiki smiled and grabbed the wooden bokken off of the weapon rack. He gave it a few tentative swings in the air before getting ready to practice a few more weapon forms. His ears perked as he turned and saw Amira standing in the doorway. Shiki smiled and leaned back a little with a rare smile on his face. Shiki had always had a bit of a soft spot for her. She was one of the few people that supported him as a friend and challenged him as a rival. 

"Amira!" Shiki called out to get her attention. He could tell from her appearance she was getting ready for some training herself. Shiki would wait to be noticed and give a small determined grin. "care for a little sparring match?" 

[Tetsu]

“Shiki!” Amira shouted as she heard her name being called by the white haired Kyoudo that she had known as a friend and rival since she had met him almost a year ago on a ship that had been attacked by Peisinoe. He had proven to be a capable fellow. At the mention of a chance to spar him, Amira would nod before walking over to the bokken herself, picking one up as well as sliding a tanto into her belt. “You know I’m always ready for a sparring match,” Amira said lightly as she adjusted the Tanto so that it was on her right hip. Taking the wooden Bokken with her to the middle of the mat, she got into the ready position that she had learned in the art of Tensora. She was a master of the Shapeless Form, but his real strength lied within her Judo. She would have to show Shiki how much she had learned as she would nod her head bowing her head slightly to acknowledge her partner before allowing him the first move. She knew that he was a swordsman as well, but she wanted to see some of his techniques for herself. “Bring it Shiki, Show me what you’ve got,” She finished as she kept her gaze upon Shiki, letting the mental focus sharpen as she watched his upper body and feet.

[Deleted]

Shiki smiled as he grabbed a spare sword from the weapon rack and turned to face Amira. Shiki smiled and pointed the wooden blade at Amira. "I've gotten stronger since you last saw me darling." Shiki would say with a playful wink. Stepping out into a medium stance with his left foot forward Shiki slashed outwards with an upward stroke of his bokken just to give Amira an idea of his strength. As he would the force from the blade would create a wind slash that would arc outwards 40 meters cutting through and destroying everything up to 40 meters out of his position. As the force hit it would travel so fast that it would cause a concussive blast kicking up dust and dirt. Parts of the dojo floor would be ripped up as wood splinters, planks and even nails would get shot towards Amira's general direction. Shiki would set himself into a defensive stance as he waited for Amira's move. There was no way this would hit her and he knew it.

Amira had figured he had become stronger, but she had not expected what was about to happen as suddenly she saw his blade moving. What good was it going to do over there? She thought for only an instant before she noticed that he was creating what looked like a sonic wave or something. She reactively made her move, jumping to the left, avoiding the blast as she would jump at the left front pillar, using it as a means to propel herself forward as she avoided the strike crossing the short 3-4 meter easily as Shiki taking the defensive stance would surely give her enough wiggle room to do this as she would approach in the air raising her sword slightly by her left ear as she would twist her body, making her attack a bit more agile as she was relying on speed rather than strength to connect her strikes.

The strike was aimed as Shiki’s right shoulder as she would twist her body so that she would bring herself to a standing position to regardless of if the strike was blocked or if he took the hit. She didn’t like staying in one place for very long and it was hard fighting someone with a much more powerful sword style if she was not careful. She would focus on defending her landing as the strike was simply aimed at catching Shiki’s attention while she was landing.

Shiki knew that Amira was coming at him. But the dust from the blast kept him from telling where exactly the hit was coming from. Shiki spun slowly relying on his mind's eye training to move out of the way of the Tanto. Fuck she's fast. Shiki upon realizing the blade wasn't going to connect started moving for his next swing. Using the momentum from his spin and turning his body 180 degrees Shiki brought the blade swinging low and aimed towards Amira's feet. If the blow connected Shiki would hopefully sweep Amira off her feet. 
----------------------------------------------


Kokoromanako (Mind's Eye)

Rank: "D", "C", "B", "A", ("S")

Skill: TaiJutsu

Effect: By fighting on and on, a user becomes more proficient when an attack may come by. This happens usually when the user becomes unable to see the attack. However by being in combat for so much they can feel when an attack is coming making them less able to be flanked.

Special: ---

Drawback: The user may only learn this technique by the class that they are. This means that in order to learn the "C" Rank version they must be "C" Class, if they wish to learn the "B" Rank version they must be "B" Class.

Description: A technique where the subconscious mind, where the subconscious body reacts just as they are attacked while flanked or while their back is turn. The body reacts in such a way to where they are capable of withstanding so much. This technique makes it where the User is incapable of being surprised attacked, a sudden second sense kicks in as their body screams out to them yelling at them telling them to move, duck, dodge or anything else within that manner. This works on whenever they are being attacked. This technique however has a major flaw. The user is capable of dodging only whenever the opponent's class is equal or lower to that of the rank of the technique they know. This means that a "D" Class user that knows this technique cannot use this against an opponent that is "C" Class or higher.

[Tetsu]

Amira saw his upper body reacting as she twisted her body with the strike. He was aiming for her feet, which was going to connect if she landed like she had originally intended. Taking a moment to twist her sword downward, she balanced herself upon the hilt for just a second, giving her some lag time before landing on the ground like intended, avoiding the strike to the legs, as she had balanced herself upon her sword. The only problem was that she could feel her grip being lost on the sword as his strike did knock her sword away. In all honesty, Amira didn’t mind as she would simply reach her legs down and press forward, but only enough for her to grab his Gi at the arm with her left hand, controlling the sword arm and the left Lapel with her right as she would waste no time in using his after strike position to transition into a throw. Twisting her body again, she would attempt to perform what was known as Ogashi, rolling him over her hip as she would attempt to direct her toss onto the mat without causing too much harm. She could have thrown him farther, but she chose to throw him about 1 meter if the throw was successful.

“You’re pretty good, but Shiki you’ll soon find I don’t need a sword,” She would comment as she hopefully had thrown Shiki off a little bit. She adjusted her stance, putting her right foot forward as she watched both Shiki’s upper body, feet, and sword once again. Her focus was intense, but her posture was much more relaxed. She was ready to fight as her sword lie only but 2 meters away to her right from where Shiki had disarmed her.

Shiki's eyes widened as he saw Amira's reaction. As the tip of her sword came down Shiki blinked. That was all it took for him to get caught in the throw and be sent sprawling through the air. Shiki felt his mass being thrown and moved his body to get ready for landing on the mat. As Shiki hit the ground using one hand and the pommel of his blade he propped himself up. Shiki stood up with a huge smile on his face. "Atta girl." He would say with obvious excitement in his eyes. Small sparks would jump from his skin as his grip around his blade would tighten. Taking a running start Shiki would jump and commit himself to a front flip wheeling his blade around in a corkscrew attack in the air. Reckless, wild and full of energy Shiki would kick off the ground hard enough to crack the floor underneath him. Although the move appeared wild and reckless the move was in fact very defensive due to the speed of the whirling blade. 

--------------------------------

Genkai Ryuu: Samebatsu (Shark Attack)

Rank: "C"

Skill: TaiJutsu

Effect: A flip attack followed by a fast pace corkscrew attack.

Special: ---

Drawback: ---

Description: The user front flips towards the opponent and then quickly performs a corkscrew attack towards the opponent slamming the head into the opponent while the user holds their sword out against their chest as they perform the fast corkscrew in order to better protect the user from incoming opponents as the sword is used to slash against those who get near, or the sword may be used to help deflect against secondary attacks that may be launched towards the opponent.

The throw had been pretty successful, that being said Shiki seemed to recover decently enough she thought as she saw Shiki beginning to run. Shit, she thought to herself, having done a similar jumping attack just a few moments prior as she charged at Shiki too. As he jumped, she would roll under him as he would cork screw off. She made sure to remain cogence of his blade as she would do her best to avoid it as he seemed pretty fire up as she rolled over the cracked mat where Shiki had just jumped from a few second prior. Using this moment she quickly moved to where her sword was, picking it up again as she would face Shiki, who was surely recovering from his midair attack. It was true that the sword saints were much stronger than the Kenjutsu users of Tensora, but alas it her mobility was much better in comparison to his. Getting into a ready stance, she would charge after the now recovering Shiki as she would throw a few strikes of her own.

This next maneuver was going to be a combination as she covered the short distance fairly quickly, attempting to move into combat range of Shiki as she would attempt to perform a simple three strike combo. First taking her sword form first position, rolling it to the side as she would strike at the 3rd sword gate (Just around the right hip). If this strike was blocked or connected she would follow up by twisting her wrist and slashing down at his left shoulder. With the same stipulations as the prior strike, she would raise her sword up, striking down towards Shiki’s right shoulder. This combo was a simple way to get him to respond and hopefully see a bit more of his sword motion. She was trying to feel him out for the most part. Defensively she wasn’t too worried about using her sword, but was rather certain that Shiki would be much wearier of her throwing him from this point on.

Shiki smiled as he saw Amira go darting underneath him. "Perfect." Shiki thought to himself. She was moving towards the cracked floorboards. Shiki landed on his feet with his sword behind his back out behind him. Shiki laughed and saw Amira's blade incoming. Such speed! Such passion! She was faster then him. There was no denying it, especially when he wasn't using his augmentations from his blade. But he didn't need to dodge all her blows. He just needed to stop them. As the first swing was coming Shiki pulled his fist around in a swing while dropping his sword held behind him. With a playful smile he punched the wooden weapon with his two layer impact. With his power built up in his punch the sword would turn into literal sawdust in her hand. With her being this close Shiki would finally be able to close the distance on her. Knowing she would probably be able to dodge a telegraphed technique with ease Shiki would use the moment to attempt to tackle her and bring her to the ground. 

---------------------------------------


Tsuyosa Ryuu: Futae no Kiwami (Mastery of Two Layers) +1

Rank: "B"

Skill: TaiJutsu

Effect: A dual strike technique that allows the user to bypass hardness while delivering a powerful strike.

Special: ---

Drawback: ---

Description: The Futae no Kiwami is a technique that focuses on allowing the full use of one's strength and power to be fully utilized at its maximum output. The Futae no Kiwami's principle aspects come from understanding that all matter bears a level of resistance, and that a single blow's impact is wasted upon meeting this resistance. From this, two blows are to be acted to fully transfer this impact. With the fist, the first blow, using the proximal interphalangeal joints of the hand, meets to absorb the object's initial resistance. The first hit allows the user to bypass +10 Hardness. Then, with folding the hand immediately to switch over to the proximal phalanx knuckles, delivers the final strike to the weakened object; in addition, the two hits are to be delivered at nearly the same time, with a few milliseconds interval. The 2nd strike deals 16 Armour Points of Damage per Class Level. The result is the complete destruction of the object (Can destroy overview Objects if it bypasses the Hardness), which has no more resistance to sustain itself and collapses into dust. Technique does double damage against inanimate objects while creating a crater 1/2 a meter per 16 Armour Points of Damage. User may relearn this technique multiple times. Each time learned allows the user to bypass an additional +2 Hardness while dealing +8 Armour Points of Damage per Class Level. May be performed once per movement.

It shattered? Amira wondered as her sword made contact with his hand, with the sword giving way instead of the hand. She would have expected his hand to break after hitting a wooden stick like he had, but alas that wasn’t the case as the blade shattered into sawdust, letting the punch continue through. Amira quelled her astonishment as she dropped the now shattered hilt and slipped her head to the side, avoiding him punch by stepping back to avoid the strike. It was a simple move of the head that would result in her avoiding such an attack. Damn he was strong, she thought to herself as she saw him approaching her, reaching as if he was going to perform some sort of tackle. Amira was glad that he was going to try and fight her like this, as she was a grappler by nature. When he moved in for the tackle, Amira would grab at the lapels of Shiki’s GI as if preparing to receive the tackle, before shifting her body backwards. Jumping and placing her right leg upon his left thigh, Amira rolled her body backward, pressing up on his hip to throw him as she let herself roll to the ground, countering the tackle.

Amira sent him flying towards the weapons rack along the wall as she would release his Gi, letting him fly the whole distance so that he would feel the impact, and even possibly break the weapons. She was going all out with this throw, just to teach Shiki not to do something like that to someone who as a Judoka. She might have been of a smaller build, but she could easily use his own momentum against him. Rolling forward after the roll to where Shiki had dropped his sword, she would pick it up from the ground and get into a ready position again as Shiki would surely get back up and recover. “You’re really strong, you’ve definitely improved.” Amira stated politely as she would get into a ready stance preparing to engage Shiki once again.

Face-To-Face Flip ("Sacrifice" Throw)
Rank: "C"
Skill: TaiJutsu
Effect: This throw is usually done successfully in a clinch when the attacker's weight is overcommitted forward. The attacker needs to know fall breaks, and you should have good mats on which to train.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: Starting Position Left-leg-forward fighting stance. As the attacker comes in, grab his shirt collar tightly with both hands. Drop your weight down like you're sitting straight down toward the floor. Do not fall backward; you want to stay near the attacker. As you do so, bring your back foot up (with your knee bent tightly so it can fit between your body and your attacker's) and place it against the attacker's hip/belt buckle. It helps to center your foot on the attacker's body to avoid slipping off the hip, and to angle your foot with the heel in toes pointed out. Round your back as you hit the floor. Continuing to hold on with your hands so that the attacker lands close to you, use your leg to kick/push the attacker over your head so that he flips and lands on his back. Roll backward to end up in a full mount. It is also possible to roll into a side mount. You may also launch the opponent into the distance. Distance is dependent on the user's class level.
"D" Class - User is able to launch an opponent into the distance 2 meter in the distance.
"C" Class - User is able to launch an opponent into the distance 4 meter in the distance.

Counter Damage: 125%

Shiki smiled as she redirected his force. He was expecting something like this to happen. As he was getting thrown he reached out and grabbed the fabric of her Gi. Either she was coming down with him where hopefully his strength would over power her or the fabric of her uniform was going to rip. With a resounding rip Shiki was sent flying holding on the the tattered left sleeve of her uniform. Shiki curled right before he hit the mat and popped up off the ground landing directly infront of the weapon rack.  Grabbing another bokken off the rack Shiki decided it was time to use the distance to his advantage. Let's see just how much she could dodge. Taking a deep breath Shiki started preparing himself for her next attack. Analyzing her movements and preparing for a perfect counter move Shiki slowed down his movements and waited. 

[Tetsu]

Amira would take her time thinking about her next attack as she approached Shiki after he had been thrown. He had stretched the fabric of her Gi a bit, but the very thick cotton weave was designed to be handled for grappling so the Gi was probably in much better shape than one could hope for at being grabbed. Amira approached, slowly walking forward as she figured she was going to have to go up against an attack much like before, as he seemed to be using brute strength against her. He would have to be careful doing that though, as she was a Judoka, who thrived on counters. She kept her focus on the approach as she would watch for any attacks, keeping her eyes on Shiki’s body as she would take her time getting over to him. If he decided to attack, then she would move a bit more rapidly and do something, but for now she was a little more preoccupied on what he was attempting to do. He knew that she was fairly adapt in counters, and that was probably acting as a deterrent from attacking her full force, opposed to just sitting there and waiting. Amira would stand there for a moment, just out of swords reach of Shiki as she would put her right foot forward and get into the ready position.

If they sat there for a few seconds, Amira would indeed make the first move strafing to the right, making a circular step as she would swing her blade down, and aimed at about where Shiki’s head would be. She was kind of hoping he would turn, but in all actuality she was watching his body, hoping he would move in for a counter. She didn’t really want to use the long Bokken, but preferred the Tanto to be quite honest. She still had the wooden knife in her right side belt as she struck down at Shiki.

This was it. Shiki saw her blade whirling around to strike him. Shiki watched the way her body was moving and was entranced by her speed. Shiki had been trying to gain an edge from his power with his swings. But it was clear that if was going to win he would either need to force a weapon to connect or match her speed. There were very few movements that he would be able to use in order to move as fast as her. But that couldn't detract him. Shiki realized instead of trying to work around her attacks he would need to corner her or at the very least force her movements along his path. With the blade spinning around Shiki decided at the very least he would need to show off his speed. The next two techniques were the quintessential zenith of the path of the sword saint. One measured ones wisdom and strength of prediction. The other recognized one's speed and accuracy. As Amira's Bokken came around Shiki swung his counter swing not directed at her body but rather her sword hand. There would be an explosion of splintered wood as Shiki would either disarm her or shatter her blade and spin around into his God speed technique. In a speed that was borderline inhuman Shiki would strike at all 9 points of her defense. Weaponless and in movement Shiki hopefully would finally be able to land his hit.

Genkai Ryuu: Issen (Flash)

Rank: "S"

Skill: TaiJutsu

Effect: The issen is a counter hit that kills most enemies in one blow.

Special: ---

Drawback: User sacrifices 1 full round before performing this technique.

Description: The user holds their movements for the round waiting and observing. The user looks for any and all vital areas within the body that would instantly take down an opponent. By the next round the user has found that vital and open spot. Then the user strikes after waiting until the moment the opponent strikes. The user will dodge left or right and striking right afterwards while the opponent is in mid swing. If the user pulls it off correctly the opponent normally sees nothing but a white flash just before they fall over dead. With this technique the user is able to strike through "S" Rank worth of Defense when the user first learns this technique. The user is able to increase the damage and power of this technique by continuously learning the technique. Each time the user learns this technique the power increases by 1 rank starting at "S" + "D" Rank of power.

Gosei Ryuu: Kuzu-ryūsen (Nine-headed Dragon Flash)

Rank: "S"

Skill: TaiJutsu

Effect: This technique is a formidable technique which utilizes Shinsoku (lit. God-speed) to the fullest extent; dealing nine strikes to the most fundamental targets of swordsmanship (Kara Take, Kesa Giri, Saka Gesa, Hidari Nagi, Migi Nagi, Hidari Kiriage, Migi Kiriage, Saka Kaze, and Tsuki), all at the same time.

Special: ---

Drawback:

Description: These points are the focus of the technique as they make up the basis of one’s guarding stance, regardless of style or weapon. So with the Kuzu-ryūsen, attacking all nine all at once, guarding and dodging becomes virtually pointless. Unlike the multiple strike attack, Ryūsōsen, all nine strikes of the Kuzu-ryūsen carry lethal force. However, weight and power play a critical aspect in the effectiveness of the technique. This means, even if the move is executed without flaw, the force behind the technique will differ from wielder to wielder depending on their class in weight and arm strength. Essentially, a "lighter" Kuzu-ryūsen would be overpowered by a "heavier" Kuzu-ryūsen.

Amira was bringing her strike down when Shiki finally made his move. It was another sword swing; which would force Shiki to rotate a bit as she had side stepped, but he was bringing his sword in for a full swing in order to do, if she was assuming correctly, shatter her sword just as he had last time. The strike was really fast, almost like a flash really, giving Amira a very small window to duck as she would duck just under, the slash, though it would knock her sword right out of her hand and slash her pony tail clean off. Now shortened and rugged, her hair would tumble out of its tie as she would from the dodging position, she would drop her broken weapon as Shiki spun around presumably for another attack. Amira would while he was spinning to face her, dive low, aiming for Shiki’s shins as she would dive into a tackle of her own. It was a means of knocking him to the ground to say the least, but it would require minimal effort as she only aimed for his left leg and pressed her shoulder into the knee joint pulling up on the foot as she would grab around his ankle and pull, using his own spinning motion against him to knock him down. He had shattered two swords, which was scary to say the least. She wasn’t anywhere as strong as this dude clearly was.

Attempting to knock him to the ground, Amira would show Shiki her strength, groundwork. She would inevitably be within his guard as she would do her best to tackle him before his second strike, whatever it was going to be. They were close enough for her to tackle, so it seemed like a viable move. From this point, she would be in guard, making sure to put her hands on his knees when he dropped so that she could control the guard position, as she was the attacker in this instance. Most girls might have been more concerned about what had happened to their hair; however the thought never crossed Amira’s mind as she tried to control the guard. She was more concerned with not being shown up by Shiki, who had obviously become much more powerful since their last meeting. She wanted to show him what she had learned too.

Takedown #3: Toe Pick
Rank: "C"
Skill: TaiJutsu
Effect: This takedown only requires you to catch one leg, and can work even if you fail to get your hips close to the attacker.
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: Starting Position Left-leg forward fighting stance, facing the attacker. Drop low and shoot in quickly, wrapping your arms around one of the attacker's legs. We assume that you dropped very low, perhaps as if the attacker pushed you down, and that you catch his foot rather than his leg. Pull his foot toward you and slightly upward while driving your shoulder into his shin just below his knee. Use your legs to help drive your shoulder. Be careful in training, because this takedown can damage the attacker's knee if done aggressively. If you wish to continue attacking on the ground, move up to side mount. Otherwise, step back and stand up.
Limit: Must learn from a Master of Krav Maga. Must know Groundfighting in Level 3 - Green Belt.

Being taken to the floor obviously had it's disadvantages but once again she was disarmed. Shiki was getting closer and closer to landing a blow. Shiki knew that if the fight continued at this range she would more than likely be able to put him into a pin. Shiki realized he needed to find a way to slow her down or perhaps even just create some more distance. Shiki while still on his back simply smashed his fist down on the ground directing another force wave of energy towards Amira. There was another eruption of force as a meter wide section of the floor exploded upwards from his punch once again launching raw concussive force, wood, and nails at her general direction. Using his other hand he spun around still clenching his sword and stepping back into a low guard stance. A cloud of sawdust filled the air as small panels of the ceiling began to fall.

Amira was about to pass guard when suddenly she noticed Shiki slam his hand unto the ground. She could see the concussive force being created as she used her position outside of his guard to roll into a cartwheel like recovery, following up with a back flip, just for show. Stopping herself, as her evasive moves would occur while Shiki was still on the ground and would avoid the straight line attack. She had avoided to the right. She was really impressed by his swordsmanship. She had heard the Sword Saints were good, but this was definitely more than she had expected. She could not keep up with him with her own Kenjutsu; however she definitely surpassed him when it came to being weaponless. He might have seen this moment as an advantage; however Amira was fairly certain that she could fare much better without a weapon than with one. It was hard to perform grapples and strikes anyway. Preparing herself for Shiki’s attack, she got into what was a right foot forward opposite stance as she would allow Shiki to get back up before they continued. It was only right to show respect to one’s opponent after all. She hoped that Shiki would continue to show her his interesting martial art as she inhaled and focused on Shiki’s position, wondering if he would take the offensive now that she was “Defenseless”.

Shiki was getting tired. But he couldn't let up now. it seemed that with every swing she was able to just step around his moves. But she couldn't do this forever. Shiki didn't care if he needed to throw the earth at her. He was going to show her what he was capable of. Shiki could feel the adrenaline pumping in his body. Gripping the bokken Shiki got ready for his next combo. "You're good Amira. Did you do something with your hair?"Shiki would chide playfully. Shiki was impressed and a bit smitten at her ability to stay so level headed in the fight. There was always something attractive about a woman with deadly prowess. Regardless. it was time to show her the pinnacle of the dragons nest. Without his supplementary jutsu and and gems Shiki was only able to make 30 cuts. But each of these cuts carried an explosive amount of force that would travel 40 meters out destroying everything in their path. In part most of them where aimed at Amira. But Shiki aimed two swings at the support beams above her hoping to cave the roof down around her head. With each swing more and more dust built up in the air creating almost zero viability. Wood panels and splintered wood chips littered the floor inter mixed with uprooted nails.

Amira gritted her teeth at his comment as she reached back to grab one of the Nagitana polearms that she had landed next to, as she had moved to the right where the weapons were. “You’re pretty good, she said as she began running at Shiki with the polearm, not knowing at all how to use the weapon, but instead had another intention. She was beginning to move when suddenly Shiki began to strike with what looked like terrifying shockwaves of sword slashes. Diverting her path, Amira would use the polearm as a pole to vault over towards the right pillar; which had just been slashed clean through by Shiki’s slashing technique. Grabbing the Candle brazier that each pillar had towards the top, Amira would feel the pillar sliding as its support was slashed. Shiki was still throwing slashes her way; which was very difficult to deal with, as physically she couldn’t dodge all of them in this open space. She was about to jump off the pillar, when two things happened.

First, when she was about to jump, she felt her instincts kick in, as she leaned her body backwards, holding onto her grip on the brazier as one of the strikes slashed just over her head, tearing the pillar up more and splitting the roof as the pillar pair fell forward with its loss of support. Another slash was surely aimed at her body as there were a plethora of strikes, (though it never stated specifically how and where the strikes were sent so I’m assuming they are just following her as she moves.). Hopping up, quickly kicking off of the now falling pillar piece as the roof split, Amira would use this as a spring board for her to get ahold of the boards on the roof, quickly lifting herself up and rolling onto the roof before stepping back so that she could get her bearings. Shiki was going all out, and hopefully he was going to pay the damages bill. Hell knows she wouldn’t be. She wasn’t going to be taking him on head to head like that any time soon, as she had no clue he could just swing his sword and do such strange strikes like that.

She could feel herself getting tired, as she had just climbed up onto the roof, having exerted quite a bit of physical stamina. She couldn’t let Shiki continue these long drawn out offenses, as she would eventually tire out if she wasn’t careful. He was much stronger than she was, so she would have to really think out her moves before doing them. Figuring Shiki would follow her up, Amira waited for the white haired swordsman to follow her.

Krav Maga Fighter Mentality
Rank: ["D"], ["C"], ["B"], ["A"], "S"
Skill: Supplementary
Effect: By fighting on and on, a Krav Maga Fighter becomes more proficient when an attack may come by. This happens usually when the Krav Maga Fighter becomes unable to see the attack. However by being in combat for so much they can feel when an attack is coming making them less able to be flanked.
Special: ---
Drawback: The user may only learn this technique by the class that they are. This means that in order to learn the "C" Rank version they must be "C" Class, if they wish to learn the "B" Rank version they must be "B" Class.
Description: A technique where the subconscious mind, where the subconscious body reacts just as they are attacked while flanked or while their back is turn. The body reacts in such a way to where they are capable of withstanding so much. This technique makes it where the Krav Maga Fighter is incapable of being surprised attacked, a sudden second sense kicks in as their body screams out to them yelling at them telling them to move, duck, dodge or anything else within that manner. This works on whenever they are being attacked. This technique however has a major flaw. The user is capable of dodging only whenever the opponent's class is equal or lower to that of the rank of the technique they know. This means that a "D" Class user that knows this technique cannot use this against an opponent that is "C" Class or higher.
Limit: Must learn from a Master of Krav Maga.

Shiki stood there for a moment panting and feeling his heart rate increase. His sword arm had a slight burn to it as he took a deep breath and simply listened to everything around him. Shiki would need to relax a bit before he went on another continued assault like that. Shiki looked over and saw that one of the lanterns had become knocked over during the fight and the kerosene an sawdust had started a small fire in the training floor of the dojo. Shiki took a running start and jumped kicking himself off the wall and landing on the unstable rooftop about 6 meters away from Amira. "Could you just stand still for a moment?" Shiki would once again playfully chide.
