[Freedom.]

Natural Stance
Type: TaiJutsu
Rank: E Rank
Effect: Disciplinary stance
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: Feet shoulder width apart, arms relaxed at side.

Katsuro was standing there, training Kenpo now. He was a master of fighting styles now that his bloodlimt magically was no longer working for him. He began to run circles around and around the ring, his body getting into shape for the next move. It was a tough one. He did a few pushups, or maybe a few hundred and then trained a few situps. Again he did a few hundred. He wanted to be the best fighting style expert he could be. He began to kneel down and then stood up, his body becoming straight.

He always stood with a slouch and this next stance would fix that. He stood tall and powerful and then his body relaxed. he was supposed to relax and yet stand tall. He looked down at his feet, spreading them apart. He couldnt help but notice that his toes kept sliding apart. He pulled them back in straight. It was harder than it looked to stand at rest while still being at attention. He body just didnt like to give him an easy time of training.

He felt his powers growing weaker. Katsuro stood tall and proud. He could feel it coming to him. After a few more hours of practicing he felt he had it pretty well down. He looked around. It was not very good a stance, he couldnt react quickly using it. Sitting still he began to go over the tactics behind it and all that he would need to know tactics to know how to use the stance correctly. From this tance he was relaxed and could easily move away. But it was slower to move in and was not as good at power strikes. Generally it was good for relaxed thought and moving into other stances. It was a transistion stance. He wrote that down. Good. Now to move on to more.

Attention Stance
Type: TaiJutsu
Rank: E Rank
Effect: Disciplinary stance
Special: ---
Drawback: ---
Description: Toes and heels together, hands at sides.

Now he was changing stances. He began writing on a piece of paper. "Attention Stance". This was a stricter and more controlled stance, and took some energy out of you if you stood in it too long. It was a military stance that made one very stiff and made moves from it more possible to snap out quickly. It had originated from an old fighting style that was now lost other than its branches into Kenpo. He looked at it. Hands behind back, heels together. Feet straight. Standing tall. Broad and powerful. Got it.

He stood tall and proud, his eyes before him, his mind on everything around him. He was still good at what he did. He was still a Hitogorashi. But as he thought this he felt pain jumping through his head. He fell down. His body had not liked that style much. Or maybe it had been his thinking of his bloodlimit. He stood up again and stared straight ahead. His fingers down at his sides. He felt useless like this. He snapped his hand sbehind his back and then felt his weaknesses and strengths from this position.

Easy feet movement and quick dodging, but his hands were tied up being together behind his back. What was the point of it? He wouold learn soon enough as he moved onto greater things in Kenpo. His head was still hurting but he stood straight and tall. He felt proud of his countr y and stopping the war, he had been attacked and hit. He was still wondering where his kage had gone. He felt his muscles tightening again and relaxed back into the other form then back into the Attention form.

He worked out a little, jumping around and doing jumping jacks and weight lifting. It was all part of the job of being the best.

His mind was growing weaker, without knowing it, he had a disease. The disease that had killed out all the Hitogorashi. He began to fall, his knees weak. And then he landed on the ground, his mouth spewing blood. This was the end of Katsuro.
