The path to Greatness...

[Kareza (Kai)]

Its been months since Kisuke had begun his search for the master of the Storm Leg. He went through alot and his supplies were running scarce. He had little money and he was becoming desperate. He knew that he had must've searched half the country to look for this man.

As Kisuke walked on, he came to a rather large village. "Hmm, Where am I now?" Kisuke looked around and saw a family of four, two parents and 2 children. He walked up to the family and asked where he was. They replied that they were in the Earth city capital. "Thank you very much." Kisuke said and the father nodded with a smile walking off with his beloved family.

Kisuke turned to look back down the main street. It was a big city indeed and there is a good chance that the master of the fighting style he longed for resided there.

Kisuke checked all sorts of shops. He came across hot baths, beauty salons, hospitals, parks, schools and bars. The one that interested him the most was the weapon shop. It held all sorts of weapons and accessories. The short ranged weapons didn't catch his eye at all. He went straight to the Archer section and saw the beautiful bows, crossbows and arrows. All of them had a distinct personality to them. Sadly, Kisuke had no money for them and he was starting to get hungry.

He walked out of the shop depressed. "I will get my hand on one of those other bows, but for now, I have to eat. Damn, I hate to be hungry." Kisuke wondered over to one of the many restaurants in the city. It was a bar as well so he may get some information about who he was looking for. After all, rumors spread fast even though most aren't the real truth.

Kisuke had a seat at the bartender table. He felt tired and was thinking about going back home to the Rain country. The bartender came with his order and Kisuke gave him the rest of the money he had. He gave him a little extra but he wouldn't be able to buy anything else with it. "Hey, Kid. You gave me a little too much. Here, take some back." Kisuke looked up at the bartender with a hopeless face, "Nah, I don't need it... I can always get some more." Kisuke was obviously lying but he didn't care.

The bartender looked at the kid with a concerned look. "Hey, kid. Whats the matter with you, eh? Eat. That food was made by none other than me. Heh, its guaranteed that it'll wash away all your troubles." Kisuke looked at the man, "You see, I've been looking for a master of the storm leg fighting style that lives in this country. My search has gone on for months and still no luck. I've lost hope now and I decided to go back home. By the way, thanks alot for the meal. I hope you're right...I could do away with this depression."

Kisuke dipped the spoon in the mixed soup and took a sip. He felt the warm liquid slide down his esophagus and into his stomach. The dazzling sauce made Kisuke feel warm as it soothed his insides and tingled his taste buds. A tear crawled down his left cheek and a smile was slowly formed. "THIS...IS...THE...B-BEST THING I EVER ATE!" Kisuke yelled with all his heart. It was indeed the best thing he had ever tasted in his entire life.

The bartender smiled at the boy, gaining an interest in him. He didn't really want to go back into teaching his fighting style but this one had promise. He had been searching for the master of the style for months and even after using everything he had, he still searched, even though he intended to give up shortly. That was enough for him. This boy would be his next pupil. His determination on his search and his love for the bartender's food would earn him the spot.

"Hey, kid. Guess what?" Kisuke looked at the bartender with pieces of food all over his mouth. He wiped off his face, "Yes, mister? Sorry, but I haven't quite gotten your name." The bartender laughed. "The name is Sanji. I'm the one you have been looking for, kid. I guess today is your lucky day huh? I say that because starting today, you will be my new student." Kisuke dropped his spoon along with his jaw and fell back. He was stunned at what the man had said but at the same time relieved.

"Hey, kid. You okay? Oh yeah, as my new student its only fair that I know your name." Kisuke sprung up in a sitting position with his legs crossed. "My name is Kisuke, sir. Are you sure its okay for me to call you Sanji sir?" Sanji extended his hand to help the boy up. "Eh, I don't care much for that formal talk and stuff...Call me what you want. Kisuke nodded and grabbed Sanji's hand. "I'll call you Sanji-kun then if its fine with you." Sanji pulled his new apprentice up to his feet. "Like I said, whatever you want. I'm off for the next week so training begins tomorrow. Got it?"

Kisuke was now on his feet. "Okay, Sanji-kun. Understood." Although he had found the master, there was still another problem Kisuke had to tend to. He was homeless and had no money. "Umm...Sorry for the trouble but...I have no place to stay and no money." Sanji laughed again. "Do you know what it means to be my apprentice kid? We're like brothers now. Mi casa es su casa...Or whatever the hell they say. Our house is located west of this city in the mountains. Feel free to go there anytime you're ready, just make sure you're there by tommorow." Kisuke bowed to his mentor and walked out. He decided to do a little more site seeing before he would go to his new home. His long search was finally over. Now he could continue to become stronger.

Master 4 = Sanji- He is the fourth strongest of the Masters and rarely uses Storm Leg but uses the training of the style most. He is a master chef and never uses his hands in battle resulting him only using it for handstands and nothing more. He just puts them in his pockets. He is also the pervert of the masters and can tell any girl’s three sizes just by looking at them. He will only teach his skills to other chefs or people who enjoy a good meal. He currently Resides in Iwa

[Kareza (Kai)]

It was the next day and Kisuke had reached his new home the night before. He was relaxed and ready to begin his first day of training with his 'big brother'. Kisuke walked out near the river and sat down waiting for his mentor. His clothes were dirty and they had to be washed so he would be doing this training in the clothes Sanji provided for him. It was a normal white karate outfit with fingerless gloves of the same color.

Kisuke started to do a little stretch out session that would make him feel more relaxed and less tense. After five minutes, Sanji showed up. "Morning Sanji-kun. I'm ready to begin my training in the storm leg fighting style." Kisuke looked at Sanji with determined eyes ready for what he was going to say.

"Okay Kisuke. Before you go into any jutsu of the style, you must go through the training techniques first. There are four techniques that you'll have to go through in order for you to be able to learn the real techniques of the style. Don't worry, I'm sure you'll be a master of this style in no time. Two months tops. Just because I believe you'll learn this fast, doesn't mean that it is weak. Don't get me wrong here...Anyway, the first training phase you'll have to go through will be the Leg Strength. For this technique, you have to do all types of exercises that I tell you in order to increase the strength of your legs. Obviously, this is an important part of the entire style. The first thing I want you to do is run...Twenty miles. Ten to the destination I choose and Ten back. You may rest for 15 minutes once you reach point B."

Kisuke nodded and took off. He was moving at a good pace and enjoyed the scenery around him. The description of the training was clear and Kisuke felt confident in himself. He continued running towards Point B. It was a small shop on the side of a rather large road. Suddenly, Sanji appeared next to Kisuke. "You're moving too slow, Kisuke. Pick up the pace. I'll be next to you from now on." Kisuke increased his speed to .5 times more of what he was initially running. "Faster Kisuke, I know you can move faster than that. Run at your top speed slacker." Kisuke looked at Sanji and nodded. He increased his speed to its maximum point. Now, the two had gone about 2.5 miles and Kisuke was moving without a drop of sweat, yet. "You have good speed Kisuke. Let's see if you can keep it up."

3 Miles
Kisuke continued running at maximum speed while sanji was right next to him running effortlessly. His run was getting him excited for what would lay ahead of him. In this training, he was only allowed to run, no jumping from tree to tree. Just plain running. A sweat drop had started to form at the top of Kisuke's head and more microsized liquids would fill it up until it would slide down Kisuke's face. By now, he had probably gone 4.5 miles.

His legs were still strong but his body was starting to sweat. He wasn't breathing hard yet but soon enough, it will happen. He continued running trying to fill his head with other thoughts so he could take his focus away from the running but it didn't work. The breathing became stronger and his nose was bearly big enough to keep the oxygen going through the body. In just a minute or two, Kisuke will be forced to breath through his mouth. At this point, Kisuke and Sanji had gone about 6.5 miles. Kisuke looked over to sanji who seemed to be having no problems. His face was dry, no sweat. Kisuke looked ahead of him again wondering how far Sanji can go before getting tired. He was another case however for the two have only gone 7 miles and Kisuke was already breathing hard.

8 Miles
Kisuke was getting tired and he could feel his muscles softening. His speed decreased slightly and Sanji quickly noticed. "None of that crap...Keep up to your maximum speed." Kisuke took a deep breath and pushed his body to speed back up to his max speed once again. This training was hard for he had to fight between his mind and his body. The body was slowly giving out but Kisuke used his mind to try and force the body to keep up to the max. The two males had gone 9 miles now and close to their destination.

Final stretch
Kisuke continued focusing so he could keep his body moving at the same speed. The feeling of exhaustion was almost unbearable for Kisuke. His body was screaming out against him but he tried to keep focused enough so he wouldn't stop. He and Sanji were only half a mile away from point B and the shop was visible. "Just a little F-farther..." Kisuke was almost there but he would soon fall victim to unconsciousness. His body was giving out and his concentration grew weaker and weaker. If he released his focus, his body would collapse and he didn't want that until he reached destination. Only a few feet away from the shop Kisuke's vision became blurry and his heart pounded in pain. He was breathing hard, too hard. He had reached the shop but would he survive?

He slowed down to a complete halt and his body stood there trembling until it finally gave out and he collapsed to the ground. He didn't pass out but he was in a serious condition. If he had kept running a few more yards, he would probably have been dead from pushing his body so hard. His 15 minute rest period began now.

15 Minutes later
Kisuke had rested well but it was not long enough. "You did good Kisuke, I really expected that you would give out before you even went 7 miles. My last student gave up at 7 miles but you kept going even though you ending up damaging yourself. That's the determination I was looking for. As a reward, you don't need to run back at full speed. You can run at any speed you feel comfortable with unless I say otherwise. Okay. Time to go back."

5 Miles
Unfortunately for Kisuke, his body didn't rest enough and the effects started kicking in again. The sweat appeared first but Kisuke continued on. He wasn't sure if his body could take that kind of punishment again, but hopefully for him, it shouldn't be too bad with the rate he was moving at. He was still breathing through his nose but his chest would recieve a stinging pain each time Kisuke would inhale deep enough. Along with the chest issue, he delevoped a bad cough adding to the pain. It was a bad combination indeed, especially if he started breathing hard again. If that happened, he would be in trouble. His determination just may kill him.

Almost There...
Kisuke could see the house now but he was already breathing hard. He had a few horrible coughs earlier and one of them caused him to cough out blood. It was becoming dangerous for him and he needed to reach the house. Once he did, he would have to be taken to the hospital for he may not be conscious by the time he reached back. Sanji sped up and reached the house standing still as if he was waiting for Kisuke to arrive. His vision started to blur once again and soon he came to a stop in front of the house. He was taking slow deep breaths to avoid the coughs and he fell to the ground once again. This time, he was taken to the hospital by Sanji. "You did good Kisuke. You'll be one of the best fighters someday." Sanji dropped the boy off at the hospital and left. Kisuke fell asleep again, this time, in hospital care.

[Kareza (Kai)]

((This one isn't training))
After a couple of days, Kisuke was released from the hospital. He immediately made his way back to Sanji's house so he could continue his training. He had never pushed himself so far and it invigorated him. He was always looking to train in different ways that other people would find rather dangerous so he could be able to train his jutsu as well as his body. He wanted his body to be able to withstand alot of punishment. Both the outside and insides. Unfortunately for him, its impossible for one to strengthen their organs.

After a few minutes of running, Kisuke arrived to the house and Sanji was sitting on the stairs going to the front door. Kisuke smiled and greeted his sensei with a bow. "Hi, Sanji-kun. I'm back from the hospital and I'm ready to continue my training. Eh, the nurse told me not to overdo it but I don't really care for such a warning." Sanji looked at the boy and stood up. "Heh, Too bad, kid. Cause today, we're gonna get to know more about each other. Hmm...Think of it as...brother bonding time. Well, get out of those training clothes and put back on your other ones we're gonna go hang around in the city."

Kisuke nodded and went to put on his clothes. After 5 minutes, he came back out and met up with Sanji. "I guess we don't know anything about each other after all. Heh, I never really thought about it. The only thing my mind was on was training but I guess this is good too." The two males walked off in the direction towards the city. "Hey, Kisuke. There's one thing I forgot to tell you. Don't walk too close to me...The last thing I want is for people to get ideas. oh. And if anyone asks who you are, just say your my cousin from where ever you're from. Geez, I don't know crap about you and I let you into my humble abode. I'm becoming a softie." Heh. Kisuke listened intently to what Sanji was saying but he didn't catch Sanji's last few words. "Understood, what was that 'heh' for?" Sanji looked at Kisuke with a smile. "Nothing, just a funny memory..."

Kisuke and Sanji arrived to the city a few minutes later but it seemed different than from what he saw the other day. The place was filled with beautiful females. "Something special going on today Sanji-kun?" Kisuke asked looking around the bustling city. "That too, Kid. I know I said you can call me what you want, but 'Sanji-kun' doesn't sound too right to me. From now on, call me sensei or nii-san (brother). I'll call you Kis okay?" Kisuke nodded and both he and his sensei stepped into the crowd.

"As for your question Kis, its the day of the celestial flowers. These flowers aren't ordinary though, they give off a scent that calms down even the most hostile animal. Its like a drug, it relaxes your body and your mind with out the addiction. I don't use it but its all the rage in the world of these cute babes." Sanji placed the side of his hand on his forehead as if he was doing a salute and searched left to right to look at all the people that were shopping and such.

Kisuke sighed. "Here we go..." He muttered. Sanji looked back at Kisuke. "Say something, Kis?" Kisuke shook his head but before he could explain what was going to happen soon enough, it just started. Females started to turn towards Kisuke and Sanji. It was like a chain reaction. Girl after girl within the 30 foot radius would turn to Kisuke and Sanji. Sanji's eyes widened with delight and he bowed towards the girls that were not interested in him, but in the hypnotizing aroma flowing out of Kisuke. Sanji went up to girl after girl introducing himself giving them compliments. The females however, couldn't exactly tell who the tantalizing scent was coming from, just its direction. Even some men turned their attention to the males.

Kisuke walked into the crowd trying to act normal. Annoyingly, girl after girl introduced themselves to him, each ending with the same thing before he would be confronted by another..."There's something about you that interests me..." It was the same phrase he was constantly hearing from each girl in some form. What really got Kisuke feeling weird was when a seven foot tall man with a very muscular body stepped in front of him. Kisuke looked up at the giant and looked back down. Please, tell me he's not gay...PLEASE! Just let him ask me for directions or something...I'm begging you! Kisuke quickly thought in his head before he looked back up at the muscular male. {"Hey there little man, wanna go have a drink at that bar with me? I'm a really nice guy when you get to know me. I'm especially good in b..."} Kisuke ran off before the monstrosity could finsih his words but what he was going to say was clear as a sunny day in Kisuke's mind.

He quickly ran off to the forest and threw up behind a bush. "God, I hate my damn Tamaranai Pheromone. I love it sometimes but damn, I consider it more of a frigging curse!" Kisuke wiped his mouth and fixed himself back up. Just then Sanji snuck up behind him out of nowhere. Kisuke flipped around ready to unleash a weak jutsu on the giant he thought caught up to him but he realized it was Sanji before he performed a seal. "Damn! Don't do that. I thought you were someone else." "Heh, I saw the big guy stop in front of you. From the way your acting, I don't even wanna know what he said. By the way Kis, something strange is going on here. You wanna let me in on the details?" Kisuke looked around to see if anyone else followed him. He caught two girls hiding behind a tree. One that looked around Sanji's age and one that seemed to be his age, most likely sisters.

Kisuke turned around. "Nii-san, look behind us..." Sanji walked off as well as Kisuke with the girls following behind them. "Yeah, Kis. I noticed them already right after I surprised you. They're beautiful, maybe they'll follow us back to the house." Kisuke smiled "They will. Lets just say that they believe we're irresistible. We can bond later tonight. As for now, we have company. Kisuke and Sanji walked all the way home and waited for the girls to arrive. They would pounce at them and make them fall into the river where the four would chat afterwards. After having some fun in the water, the girls followed Sanji and Kisuke inside. There they would play all sorts of games until night and the group of four would separate into two pairs. Each with a male and a female. This would be a night that Kisuke and Sanji would never forget.

It was the next day. Kisuke's and Sanji's 'playmates' returned home leaving their address with the boys. Sanji turned to Kisuke. Ha! You did good, Kis. I would never believe there was a Bloodlimit like that until I saw its effects with my own eyes! You are one special guy, Kis. Heh, we can get any girl we want!" Kisuke smiled at Sanji. "Heh, I don't think you would want to do this much...Might catch something. Anyway, can we continue with my training Nii-san?" "Sure Kis. Why not?"

Kisuke switched back into his training clothes and went outside to meet up with Sanji. It was time to train on his leg strength again. "Okay, Kis. This time, we're not gonna run. This time, you're gonna work directly on your leg strength. Last time was some indirect training. Okay, follow me." Kisuke walked off with Sanji until they reached a small field. Sanji pointed at some boulders. There were five lined up just a few feet away from each other.

"Okay, Kis. This time, you're gonna do something what I call 'leg crunches'. For this training, you have to use your legs to lift each boulder. For the first boulder, you have to lift it at least 100 times. For the second, 80 times. The third, 50 times. Fourth, 25 times. The last one, 10 times. Now, I don’t expect you to do this all in one day but try your best. I'll be off in the city doing some errands. Don't overdo it like you did last time. No one is gonna be here to help you if you hurt yourself kid. Oh yeah. Almost forgot...Starting from the first which is 50 pounds, each boulder is two times heavier than the last. Good luck. I hope to see you on the third boulder by the time I return.

(10/30)

Kisuke walked up to the first boulder. "Fifty pounds, eh." He raised the front of the boulder with his hands and slid under it pressing his feet against the boulder with his back lying against the ground. Holding the boulder was definitely no problem, but pushing it up 100 times sounded difficult. Now it was time for him to begin.

Kisuke started off at a good pace. He pushed the boulder up and brought it back down carefully each time thinking about which number he was on. It would be bad if he loss count so he concentrated on only thinking about the numbers. His legs were still at 100 percent making him feel confident about completing this exercise in one day. "32..33..34..35..36.." The ten mile run must have built up his stamina and endurance so he would have a easier time with this training.

50 Leg Crunches
It seemed as if only five minutes passed since Kisuke began. His legs still felt strong and no sweat could be seen on him. He decided to speed up the rate so he could move on to the next boulder for this one proved no challenge for him. "82,83,84,85,86,87,88,89,90" It was just a warm up to him and he couldn't wait to see how heavy the next one was. He was on his last five crunches and he felt even more alive than when he started.

Kisuke kicked the boulder and it rolled over. "Ha! Fifty pounds was nothing. On to the next one. Twice as much huh? That means this is 100 pounds. I hope this one proves a challenge." Kisuke slipped under the second rock and fixed himself in position. This one was indeed heavier. When it comes to boulders, size does matter. Kisuke started his crunches. This one was slightly on the heavy side to Kisuke, but for this one, he only needed to do 80 leg crunches.

25 Leg Crunches
Once he passed 25 crunches, Kisuke started to feel his legs losing energy. It wasn't a big deal but he would soon feel the burning sensation of working out. He continued his exercise valiantly not worrying about getting tired. He slowed down a little but it only proved worse for it caused him to use more energy. Moving faster would be the solution but he didn't want to burn through the exercise and not get the full benefit from it.

55 Leg Crunches
Kisuke was getting tired. He could feel the burn in his legs. As he continued, he became more and more fatigued. "Damn, 67...68...69...70...71...72..." He only had a few more crunches left before he was done with this boulder. His was tired now and he was sweating bullets. He had completed the 80 crunches. All that was left was for him to get out from underneath the boulder. He tried pushing the boulder over but he was too tired for that. He waited in that position for a few minutes and used his regained energy to push the boulder over. He succeeded but barely.

Kisuke took a fifteen minute break before he would move on to the next boulder. This one was supposedly 200 pounds and he needed to do 50 leg crunches. After his short rest, Kisuke moved over to the next boulder. His body was fully rejuvenated and he was for the third phase. This rock was heavy and it took alot to lift it up and hold it just so he can get under. Once he was there, he was ready to begin. He started off a little fast counting the numbers in his head.

25 Leg crunches
He had quickly burned through the first half but he was already losing his strength. He continued going and going until he would finish this one. Each time he pushed his legs up, it felt as if the boulder was getting heavier each time. His legs were burning and his back was in pain. It would only be a matter of time before his body gave up but Kisuke wouldn't allow that to happen until he completed his leg crunches for this boulder.

His body sent a silent scream to his brain but Kisuke wouldn't give out. "45...46...47...48...49......50!" He was doneand now, the only problem left was for him to get out from underneath the giant rock. He was definitely too tired to kick the tremendous stone over so his only option left was to utilize a ninjutsu technique. It would be difficult to perform one under such pressure but he believed he was capable of it. With the runthrough of a few seals, Kisuke created four clones. He ordered them to help him push the stone back. They all pushed the rock back as well as the real Kisuke and they suceeded.

Of course, Kisuke wouldn't dipose of the clones just yet, he needed them to help him. After another short break, Kisuke moved to the fourth boulder. "Okay, 400 pounds, 25 times." He slipped under this rock with ease from the help of his clones. He pressed his feet against the rock and told the clones to let it go. This one was extremely heavy and Kisuke quickly started moving as fast as he could. "13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25. Get me outta here!" Kisuke screamed. The clones fumbled around and helped Kisuke lift the giant piece of Earth.

He was down to one rock. The last nearly made him cry and his back was starting to fell pain. He rested again for 30 minutes this time. It was the grand finale and he would take his time with this one. With the help of his clones, Kisuke was bearly able to lift the rock. He crawled under it and got into position. He signaled the clones to release the rock and his legs held it up with all their might. He could feel them trembling as he went through the crunches slowly. "5.....6.....7.....8....9...........10!!! Get me out quick!!!" Kisuke managed to slide out from the enormous stone but his whole body was in pain. It wasn't as bad like the last exercise but he would be in bed until tommorow.

[Kareza (Kai)]

It was the next day and Kisuke awoke in his bed. He remembered the difficult training he had to go through just the day before. The pain was agonizing and he bearly got through but he felt better than he ever did in his entire life. The training seemed to revive him. He was near to the point of fading away but this remarkable training brought him back. Sanji told Kisuke that today would be the last day of this training and he was ready for anything he might throw at him.

Sanji was waiting outside for Kisuke to meet him. This would be that last part of this training and the beginning of the new one. "Wassup, Kis. As you know, this'll be that last part of this training and there is a chance you may die. For this exercise, I'm gonna tie up both of your hands behind your back and take you into the middle of the forest near Wolves' Den. As the name states, it is home for many hostile wolves. The thing they hate most, are humans. Now, since your hands will be all tied up, you will have no choice but to use your legs and defeat them. I'll be watching from afar. All you have to do is take out 15 wolves with only your legs. If you become overwhelmed...I won't save you. Just a heads up. Now, lets start this."

Sanji suddenly disappeared from Kisuke's sight. He reappeared behind him and hit him in the back of his neck with a swift chop from his left hand. Kisuke was knocked unconscious for he wasn't able to react fast enough. Sanji tied him up and took him to the destination which was stated earlier in their conversation. He arrived to the area and poured cold water over Kisuke with a bucket that he brought with him.

The mentor would disappear again before Kisuke could wake up in time. He kept running until he came to a stop near a very large tree. He jumped to the top of the tree to watch the action that would soon take place. "Heh, I've been with that kid for a while now. Knowing him, he'll be excited and take out more wolves than he's supposed to.

Kisuke awoke and found himself tied up on the ground. Not only that but he was wet as well and he knew why. It was all apart of Sanji's exercise. He hopped to his feet and looked aorund the area. He was in a small opening in a large forest. Everything seemed normal but Kisuke quickly noticed a rustling sound. He turned around and saw a wolf in mid air preparing to pounce on him and rip him to shreds.

Kisuke wasn't going to allow this and performed a quick sidestep to dodge the wolf's surprise attack completely. The exercises he had gone through earlier had really showed some progress. If he had gone through this exercise first, the wolf would have caught him and he would surely be killed. "Heh, I feel the rush already. Come at me you little bastard."

Instead of doing what Kisuke said, the wolf howled out a horrendous cry. Most likely signaling the rest of its pack to help it out. Kisuke laughed and prepared himself. "Fifteen wolves Sanji? I'll take out 30." Within a short amount of time, wolves started appearing in the area and Kisuke was almost surrounded. The wolves stood in a stance of their own. Ready to pounce at Kisuke at any moment. "All of you huh? Sounds difficult but I'm ready for it."

Suddenly, two of the wolves rushed towards Kisuke, one from his right and the other from his front. Kisuke fell back and kicked the wolf charging to his front with the tip of his foot. His kick landed a hit right under the wolf's lower jaw. Most likely, that wolf would be knocked out or dead. Of course he didn't forget about the other wolf that came at his side. It was now soaring in the air aiming for the trainee's head. Kisuke pushed his feet from the ground and used his knee to catch the right side of the wolf's face slamming it into the ground as he stood up.

"Two wolves down, 28 more to go." Kisuke didn't want to waste any time and he charged at the nearest wolf. It was the one that attacked him first. He rushed to the beast with decent speed and spun around into a low spin kick. This one also caught the wolf's face. Kisuke thought he would be able to take them out faster if he kicked them in vital areas. He wasn't so inclined to treating animals this way but it was for training. Just then, three more ravenous wolves lunged at Kisuke, all from behind.

He turned around, stepped to the side from the first one and gave it a strong knee into its chest. He could feel the bones breaking inside the hostile animal. The other two rushed at their target simultaneously without hestitation. Kisuke ran back to a tree and jumped off of its side propelling him slightly higher into the air. The two wolves jumped as he predicted they would and he greeted them both with a double knee hit straight to their noses. All three mammals landed on the ground, two dead and the other just getting warmed up.

"24..." Kisuke stood back on his feet but five more wolves were already charging at him since he landed. They were attacking from all directions this time. It would be bad if he was caught in the circle so Kisuke rushed to the wolf in front of him and gave it a strong kick as if he was kicking a soccerball. A second wolf came at him but it didn't jump as well as a third dog that was already in the air. Kisuke turned his back to the second wolf and quickly dug his heel under its bottom jaw.

The third one was closing in on Kisuke so he jumped up high and watched the wolf land. He spun around a little to aim at it and smashed his heel into its skull with an axe kick. The fourth ran up to Kisuke and attempted to bite into his tendon but if that happened, he would surely go down leaving him open for the rest to tear apart. He lifted his foot back again as hard as he could and his powerful heel collided into the wolf's jaw.

The fifth wolf was already in the air as well and Kisuke jumped up and caught its head with his legs. With a quick turn, Kisuke would silence the beast forever. He stood back up focusing on his multiple opponents. "19...Thats all you got!?" Kisuke was starting to sweat and his breathing was a little to heavy. Suddenly, another batch of wolves were sent at the ninja. It seemed like they hated to lose as well. Kisuke focused chakra to his legs and prepared for the assault. This time, ten wolves broke off and charged at Kisuke. All from the front area of the trainee himself. A grin was created on the young ninja's face and he ran straight for the wolves. The chakra he added would make him faster and stronger. It wasn't much but it would help dispatch the numerous wolves.

He ran and spun kicking the first two wolves far off in the same direction. He kicked another with the sole of his foot to the right side. The next was hit with a knee causing it to catapult into two other wolves. Already, Kisuke was down to 5 out of the 10 that charged at him. The next three wolves jumped at Kisuke. This would be a hard manuever for him but it was possible. He jumped above the wolves just as they landed and he dropped back down at a fast speed. The wolves wouldn't be able to even think about dodging for kisuke had already landed hits on them. His right leg would catch two wolves, one with his knee and the other with the tip of his foot.While the other leg was forced face first into the third wolf.

The last two already began running at Kisuke before he kicked the last one and they were charging from behind. The pair jumped into the air but Kisuke rolled forward and shot both of his legs into the wolves caving in their chests. Their numbers were dwindling and the pack elder decided to give up. He seemed to orders the wolves to leave as he himself walked off. At this point, Kisuke was panting, if he had continued, he would have been caught. Some the wolves that he had hit got back up and limped off with the rest of the pack. Kisuke sighed. "I got 21 wolves in the end huh? I guess thats not bad. I could've died but instead I defeated 6 more than I was told to. Works for me." Sanji appeared next to Kisuke. "Good job, Kis. I believe you've completed this training. Now, lets see how it worked out for you tommorow right before we begin the next training."

Whoa. Add it to your bio.

[Kareza (Kai)]

IIt's been about three months since Kisuke has been living with Sanji. It was fun at first but the excitement began dumbing down. The times started seeming repetitive to him and it was time to start training again. This time he was going solo.
