Description: Effective striking with the weapons of the body to the opponent’s vital points is essential for a victorious outcome in a hand-to-hand struggle. A ninja must be able to employ the principles of effective striking if he is to emerge as the survivor in a fight to the death. Strikes should be targeted at the opponent’s vital points and nerve motor points. Strikes to nerve motor points cause temporary mental stunning and muscle motor dysfunction to the affected areas of the body. Mental stunning results when the brain is momentarily disoriented by overstimulation from too much input—for example, a strike to a major nerve. The stunning completely disables an opponent for three to seven seconds and allows the ninja to finish off the opponent, gain total control of the situation, or make his escape. Sometimes, such a strike causes unconsciousness. A successful strike to a nerve motor center also renders the affected body part immovable by causing muscle spasms and dysfunction due to nerve overload.
Limit: Must be Yellow Belt Krav Maga

Class was now in session as he and his master would sit upon the matted floor. Lessons for Krav Maga cost little, and being that he needed to expand his ability in Taijutsu, he could not pass up the opportunity. They would sit before each other in pure silence, curiousity flowing through the young man's mind as elder master closed his eyes in what seemed to be some sort of meditation. Figuring there was a thing his master new and not him, he would close his eyes as well in hopes there were some sort of connection with this and his training. After only a few minutes, the master would open his eyes and snap his fingers, the noise grabbing Yuujin's attention before he quickly stumbled into a better posture.

"Yuujin, you seem tense....you'll never get anywhere stressing yourself just to learn."

"Sorry, I just want to learn this, and learn it well."

"You will, through patience. Now, in order for one to learn such a style such as Krav Maga, requires one to understand the human anatomy. I hope your study in the academy was enough."

"Yes master, I studied it and remember it well though it has been years since I was in the academy."

"Well, now it is time to learn how to use those points to your advantage, stunning or disabling your opponent for more fatal attack. Lets stand so that I may demonstrate on this dummy."

With his right hand extended, Yuujin's eyes would follow to a dummy posted upon a stick within this small dojo. They would both lift themselves up together and slowly walk over to the dummy. Upon nearing it, the master would enter into a battle stance more stuitable for such a style of fighting, and with a moment of silence, he would suddenly begin to strike the dummy in numerous places, each seemed to be percise in their location. With skill and time, he seemed to have gained more speed and agility even though he was at the point in his life where muscles would tense and become almost useless compared to someone as young and flexible as Yuujin himself. The master would pull back with a smile.

"Had this been you, you would have found yourself most likely be either dead, or unconcious for the remainder of the battle."

"Really, thats what I'm talking about."

"Indeed, and I will show you each vital point, but we will start slow because there are many locations that one has to hit in order to cause such fatal damage."

With this, the master would begin to slowly point out each vital point on the human body, explaining its connection with the human mind, and the many possiblities that could occur once one has hit such a vital point. Yuujin listened in carefully, placing his hand upon each location following his master's words. Within minutes, it would seem that he was far from finished when learning the key points of this fighting style. They were soon done explaining each point however, and so the master would slowly explain the striking motion for each vital point. Luckily, studying the vital points wasn't his only assignment before, but also the striking motions of a Krav Maga user, making the lesson's easier.

[Nerve Points]

Slowly, he would repeat a striking motion to each location his master pointed out with his index finger. Pulling back his arm, he would make what seemed to be a chopping motion with the side of his palm, aimed to make impact with each location. Some points required an open palm touch, a grab, and some times a finger point attack. He would repeat this over and over again, hitting each nerve location, and once that had been completed, he would do it once again. This was his first time, and the fact that each nerve location was small, almost like a Hyuuga member attacking another's Tenketsu, he hit only a few with perfect percision. The master would know whether or not the attacks made effect.

"Try again, you missed the last five locations horribly."

"Yes sir."

Each time his hands made impact with the stuffed human sized doll, he would grunt, placing a bit of anger behind each attack. It could be seen in his eyes, that this doll was indeed a symbol of another. The master would no longer place his attention of the dummy, but the eyes of his new student. His fingers no longer pointed at the locations, Yuujin knew them now and understood the ways of hitting them though his percision was off. His speed grew slowly but surely, and soon he was hitting around each location of the nervous system within a half of minute of time. Though he did not actually make full impact upon the locations, he knew them and was able to hit the spots on occasion.

With the final thrust of and snap of his wrist, the last nerve had been hit and he would stop for air. The master stood with his arms crossed as a chuckle left his mouth. He was pleased that Yuujin had taken such a liking to this fighting style because only one that truly liked something would find themself lost in it. Little did his sensei know, Yuujin was not fighting the dummy, but Konkuro. Konkuro was history, history he could not let go of when ever the thought of his love came to mind. He had a bit of hate for the other boy, his rival, and because of it he was driven to pounding the dummy with full strength; merciless. Stepping back slowly, Yuujin would speak through each breath he struggled to make.

"Did I do it right, sensei?"

"Haha. You did well Yuujin, you did well."

"You've done well at hitting the points, but you fail to hit with perfect percision every other point. You must now continue this without hesitation. Focus on each point you wish to hit."

"Yes sensei. It is a bit difficult, but I'll pull through."

"That is all I ask of you."

With this, young Yuujin would get back into a proper fighting stance, focusing upon his opponent the dummy. Studying the dummy's body carefully, he would begin to hit each vital point as best he could with quick and powerful blows. Some spots he would hit with an open palm, and other locations he would hit with a punch or a chop. A grunt could be heard from him after each time his hands made impact with the dummy. He was beginning to feel the pain from hitting the dummy so much as his hands grew red from the pressure he was placing into eac strike. He would begin to circle around the dummy hitting each nerve point as best he could. A quick snap of his sensei's fingers would stop him.

"Heres the problem Yuujin. Your all about strength and speed right now, when you need to be about accuracy. Go slow at first, and then slowly accelerate while adding more power into each attack."

"Yes, I'll keep that in mind."

With that, he would close his eyes and stand up straight. Slowly inhaling deeply and running each point through his mind carefully, he would prepare himself mentally before physically. Upon his final exhale, his eyes would open, and he would begin to focus upon the dummy like never before. Scooting his left foot across the ground ahead of him, he would lift his fist up in a guarding position before preparing to strike. He would look to his sensei before nodding, and quickly afterwards the master of Krav Maga would hit the chest of the dummy, triggering him to begin his attack on the dummy. Upon the sign, he would slowly begin to hit each spot slowly and properly.

The first spot would be hit along the neck of the dummy, and following that another spot upon the chest. Going lower towards the abdomen, he would shift around the dummy's from before making another strike in a location around the rib kage. Grabbing the right arm of the dummy, he would lift the arm and begin to attack nerve point along the arm. With percision, he would make each blow count. Shifting around the back of the dummy, he would hit a bunch of nerve points along the spinal cord of the dummy, each spot located with a dot. With a simple striking motion along the back of the dummy, he would hit each location perfectly before shifting over to the left side of the dummy.

Quickly lifting the left arm into the air, he would send a powerful strike to the marked location along the armpit of the dummy before striking each location upon the arm. He would grip pressure points along the arm before shifting under the arm and ending his barrage with a powerful right elbow to the chest of the dummy. He had successfully hit each location as required of him, but of course he would have to do it a bit faster and stronger, and so he would sqaure up before the dummy again and focus on each point before hitting its location. After a moment of silence, he would push forward with a powerful chop to the neck. With more accuracy and power, he could knock one unconcious.

Moving down from the neck to the chest, he would hit different locations upon the dummy's chest with a little more speed and power. From the chest down to the abdomen, he would hit each location almost perfectly before making a few kicks down below in addition to powerful blows to the lower body. Quickly lifting himself up, he would move to the dummy's left and quickly lift the dummy's left arm into the air before continuing his powerful blows upon both the armpit and forearm of the dummy. At the tip of the hand, he would grip the dummy's pressure point between the thumb and index finger before twisting the arm around and over his head to allow him to get behind the dummy faster.

Afterwards, he would throw a powerful blow to each nerve point upon the spin and back. Going a bit faster would cause him to stumble every so offten, but rather than continuing upon his mistake, he would return to the point and hit it correctly as it should have been hit the first time. He would hit even harder the second time out of anger at the fact he failed to do it the first time. Grabbing the shoulders of the dummy, he would throw a knee into the spine of the dummy before moving to the dummy's left side again and lifting its arm into the air. Four powerful chops to the ribcage of the dummy followed by a powerful punch would be enough to stun the opponent even before attacking the forearm.

After attacking the rib cage, he would move to the forearm attacking with his finger tips as he gripped upon different locations on the arm. After hitting each location properly, he would grasp the pressure point between the thumb and index finger again before twisting and lifting the arm over his head to allow him to find himself before the dummy once more. Looking at the dummy face to face, he would quickly lift his right hand and slap the dummy with a powerful back hand. Chuckling at the final blow, the master would place his left hand upon Yuujin's shoulder before patting him. With a smirk, Yuujin stepped back and crossed his arms trying to keep the fact that he was lacking oxygen a secret.

"Pretty nice, right?"

"You a mind reader all of a sudden Yuu?"

"I'd like to think so."

"Haha, very well then my student."
