The sun was shining on this particular day in Kumogakure. It had been abnormally warm weather for this time of year, but the citizens of the usually chilly city weren’t complaining. Kahako had been given the day off, and she decided that she would take her training outside. Instead of walking the entire way to the hospital from home, Kahako allowed her feet guide her to a secluded spot in the forests surrounding the Seki district. Not many normal civilians entered this area as some of the more feral animals tended to roam and academy students sometimes trained.
Which was exactly why she was here. Since it was a nicer day outside, odds were students wouldn’t be here training. No, they would be in the Susukino District, enjoying tea in an outdoor café, or going on dates with significant others. Kahako however had other plans.
Walking into a clearing meant for training, Kahako set down the bag she brought with her and undid the clasp on her cloak. As it fell, she allowed her eyes to scan the area. It was a roughly made training ground, but generic enough. Most of the area has been cleared of trees aside from one large log in the center. Years of kunai being tossed at it definitely took its toll. Yet Kahako wasn’t interested in practicing with a weapon for once. Today she wanted to focus on her taijutsu. Kahako closed her eyes as she let her chakra flow through her limbs. She always did enjoy this feeling. Her chakra would tingle at it reached the tips of her fingers, ready for its use.
Quickly, Kahako shot forward into the center of the clearing. Since she had no sparring partner she could only practice so much, but her imagination allowed her to create her enemies. Her first opponent, he came at her at a low sweep. She leapt into the air as a flip, as if over him to her second imaginary opponent, her heel through his head as she landed. Swiftly, the same leg moved around her as if to sweep the first man off his feet.
Kahako jumped away from the center of the area only to regroup into a different series of moves. Over and over again in hopes to get the moves perfect. She couldn’t add the true power that she originally wished for.
But so focused was the young girl that she paid little attention to her surroundings.
