Learning the Ropes [Private -- Hiyasu Shiori]

[Kanagawa Nozomi]

3PM
Sunny
Outside in the Training Grounds

Kaori could be seen punching at air, using footwork and dynamic movement; all tools she had gained from Coffee-Sensei and Yume.
The more she learned from these two, the more of a well-rounded ninja she will become when the time came to take her exam. She wasn't quite ready yet. It was an inevitability that if she became a ninja, she would be forced to fight. That is just what shinobi are meant to do. Funny how a tool of her mother will soon become a tool meant for murder. Yet, becoming a tool meant for murder was much more liberating than the former. At least as a shinobi, she is able to formulate her own thoughts and be able to show her own feelings without being scrutinized by a over-bearing and over-controlling sociopath like her mother was. Everyone, including her siblings, knew of her sociopathy; everyone except Kaori.

Kaori threw out another punch, silently counting to herself. "51, 52, 53," she said as she glistened with a little bit of sweat. The gloves she wore were simple in appearance but quite complex in design. This is her weapon-of-choice and felt that the more she wore them, the more of a bond she felt for it. It almost felt that the gloves, themselves, would speak to her on occasion. It was the oddest thing. While the weapon was forged and blessed by the Great Dragon, she didn't think that the blessing would make words spill forth out of the weapon.

Kaori stopped upon reaching sixty and looked around a bit. The boombox that was given to her by Yume played some of her music; her older music was still upbeat and made working out less of a chore. However, as much as shadow-boxing was entertaining (which it's not) she would much rather have some practical practice. The majority of the practical practice she had received was getting hunted down by 2 ANBU clones when it should've been the other way around and watching a wolf hunt for a bunny. A bunny which she promptly let go due to not needing any more meat from the deer she dispatched.

It wasn't a normal feeling, but she was in the mood to fight someone. There would be no malicious intent towards fighting the person, but she wanted to put her training to the test. There was something satisfying about successfully performing what you have learned in a quasi-realistic combat scenario. What would be the saddest thing is if people poured their time and effort into making one a strong and effective shinobi only for them to become failures. Wasted potential is the most tragic thing in a warrior-minded society like the shinobi. Kaori fast-forwarded the current song until the next song and smiled, nodding at the sound that was produced by the boombox.

This song was upbeat and it got the blood pumping. However, due to having her mind set on finding someone to fight, she simply sat down upon the boombox and waited for someone who might want to fight.​

 

[Hiyasu Shiori]

The ring tumbled in the air as Hiyasu Shiori threw it in the air and caught it, watching the light play off the copper, the bezel flaring like a small sun. He regarded the ring, rubbing his thin fingers over the engraving. A stylised lily of the valley. The simply lines and shaped made an understandable whole. It was expertly crafted, and obviously old. He had been obsessed with it ever since he had been given it by his mother. She had said that the men of the line had worn it, until she was the only child to her father. Now, it was his. His mother, a previously quiet and demure woman, seemed more alive when talking about her family, about the great line that had slowly faded from history until she didn’t even know if there were any others left.

His smile and peace of mind was shattered by music.

Some modern, upbeat tunes were jabbering through the air. He frowned, slipping the ring over his middle finger, seeking the source of the music. They grew louder and louder as Shiori moved through the training grounds.

Finally, the boy came to a clearing, seeing a girl sat on a colossal music system, obviously only able to be hauled about on one’s shoulder, or by the heavy handle folded over the front. She was breathing heavily. Obviously, she had been training, exactly what Shiori himself had come here to do. His shift at the restaurant wasn’t for a few hours, so he had some time free to imagine himself as one of those legendary men his mother had spoken of.

He turned to leave, shyness filling him with a need to leave the girl be and train on his own. He stopped before fully turning, though. Hiroshi and Megu wouldn’t shy away from a chance for some real training! He turned back toward the clearing, stepping through the brush into the light.

“Uh, excuse me, I notice you’re training? I like to come here to train as well. Do you want to...train together, maybe?”

Shiori was impressed that he spoke loudly enough to be heard, without a tremor in his voice. His father was right that his son was ‘coming out of his shell’ as he liked to slur when Shiori told him of his days with his friends.

 

[Kanagawa Nozomi]

The boy showed up at just the right time. Upon hearing his voice, she turned off the boombox and turned her attention towards him.
She wiped her brow with her left arm and smiled at him. Seeing the boy was a welcoming sight; no better way to get some practical combat training out of the way than having another human body on the field, trying to dodge your punches and punch back. "Oh! Awesome! Yeah, I'll train with you. Though, I would like to make this training more hands-on than punching a training dummy. How about we have a spar?" she asked.

The girl stepped away from the boombox and took an offensive stance, holding her hands out, ready. "So, wanna do this then? My name is Kaori, by the way, what's your name?" With a little grin coming across her face, it is now time for the training she received from Yume and Coffee Sensei to show their true colors. She's still extremely inexperienced, yet having learned the basic jutsu by the academy, but she felt confident enough to not get completely stomped into the ground.

"I hope you're ready. Because here I go!" she said with enthusiasm as she rushed towards Shiori​

[B-Mod Call]
[Good Luck, Shiori ^^ Let's learn the system with good sportsmanship]

 

[Hiyasu Shiori]

Shiori paused at the mention of sparring, mulling the idea over in his head. A spar would be good, especially with all the new skills his mother had been teaching him whilst his father was out working. But he didn’t know this girl, what she was capable of. What if either of them got too carried away? There could be real harm done.

But Shiori would have to experience combat at some point. It would be terrible if his first period of real combat was the first time he got hurt. He nodded, more to himself than the girl.

“Sounds great.” He pulled off his robe jacket, exposing his pale skin to the harsh sunlight so it shone like alabaster from under a blue vest, placing the jacket lovingly on his tattered bag beside a tree at the clearing edge. He adjusted his ring. When he had turned around, the girl was in her own opening stance, palms up. His body remained in a neutral position, arms at his sides.

He was analysing the stance the girl had taken, a totally alien fighting style, it seemed. His limited knowledge of jutsu and fighting in the academy would be put to the test here, he knew. He supposed he would come across many unknown fighting styles as he advanced his own career as a Shinobi. It was good to get into the practice of analysing them.

“My name is Hiyasu Shiori, pleased to meet you, Kaori.” He replied, the model of good manners.

As Kaori rushed forward, Shiori’s foot pushed forward a little, stance changing.

 

[Tomomi]

Welcome to your first Modded Fight!

I will be your moderator for this fight! I will request that you send me, in a PM, your actions and all your battle information: Stats, class, abilities, jutsu, items, weapons, etc.

When sending this information, I would prefer to have hyperlinked stuff or regular links. This greatly decreases the time it takes for a moderator to mod as it cuts down on searching.

If you feel that I may miss something, please feel free to add in a list of passives or effects that you wish to be given special attention, or just a list of all of your passives works as well, whichever.

Please note that I am in training to be a battle moderator so it may take longer than a typical moderator to finish a round as I may be asking questions cause I need clarification. Also, this is a learning experience so take your time and don't rush your actions. If you have anything that you need to ask me, please PM me.

 

[Kanagawa Nozomi]

Kaori rushed towards Shiori and stopped, pivoting her foot on the ground and spun off to the side. Perhaps she was a little hasty in her attempt to fight the young boy. She has had a little bit of practical practice; albeit not with a target that would fight back though. She felt confident in her ability to win this match against the boy, unless of course, he had jutsus that were her weakness then this fight MIGHT be a problem. But before she jumps into the battle with Shiori, she had to ensure she was prepared to fight.

A small battle like this may not seem the right time to activate the Ryuugan, but if she wanted to test her power and her full potential to fight, she would have to activate it. The Ryuugan is as much a part of her as her fists are, so not activating the Ryuugan would be doing herself a major injustice. Clearing her throat, she pointed at Shiori with a nod. A confident grin still plastered upon her face. "Alright then Shiori, let's make this a good fight,
eh?" she asked. She felt that her cockiness was something she saw from one of her elder siblings. Whether she liked it or not will depend on her combat performance.​

[Hiyasu Shiori]

Shiori kept his smile as the girl charged at him before breaking away. She seemed to stop and consider something before settling on a course of action. He remained in a neutral, passive position, arms by his sides as if he didn't have a care in the world. Whilst doing this, he began focussing his chakra, feeling reality start to bend around him to his will as the powers of his bloodline began manifesting.

The girl pointed a finger at him, a smile on her face to match his own. She had affected a cocky attitude. His own smile broadened in response.

"Sure thing, Kaori. Make sure to give it your all. I know I will."

[Kanagawa Nozomi]

Kaori's eyes went pure white for a brief moment before the they changed to a flat black to a dark purple color. Her irises appeared in a burning red color, dancing around as if flames being tickled by a gentle wind. She quickly threw on her gloves, the Gloves of Divine Dragon Flame and held her hands up in a ready position, a position akin to one taught to her by Yume. A stance of fluidity with her body feeling light and able to move at any moment. After she finished getting herself prepared for the mess that was to come, she noticed something terrifying coming. A wave of destructive force rushed towards Kaori. Instinct took over causing her to jump over the massive wave of dark energy.

She kept her eyes on Shiori and gripped her hands into a tight fist. "What was that? That could've hurt!" she said, appalled at the strange ninja power she just witnessed. This was the first time she had seen something so destructive before. Was that ninjutsu? She looked over the boy for a moment and pivoted her foot into the ground, as if ready to lunge in at him. She waited for the right opportunity to do so.​

[Hiyasu Shiori]

Shiori tried to hide his surprise at missing his attack. He had only just learnt the the ability, maybe he had been too keen to make an impression. As Kaori pulled on gloves and shifted into a better position, Shiori realised he needed to take his own measures.

A taijutsu specialist, eh? Seems we will both be playing to strengths

Shiori remained still and passive, the image of nonchalance, like his friend Hiroshi. His mind began working feverishly for a plan, what would she do? What could he do to stop her? It had taken a lot to unleash that pulse of energy, to try and unravel the very fabric of reality. Maybe he needed to use his abilities in a more constructive manner. Think it through rather than lash out.

Kaori made contact with half of her strikes, feeling Shiori's flesh with each hit. Her strikes after the first two weren't worth mentioning. One missed while the other just barely grazed him. Sucking air between her teeth, she noticed the boy putting a ring on his finger. Her eyes fixated on this simple fact.
"You're pretty quick, Shiori. Normally, I would have landed all of those attacks. You're pretty good!" she complimented the boy's mobility. Her words about having landed all of the attacks was merely a bluff; gotta hype herself up sometimes.

Kaori pushed back with her feet, launching herself backwards a few meters in order to put space between herself and Shiori. Her eyes looked down at the boy's weapon and a smirk came across her face. She knows exactly what she needs to do about this. It'll take a little bit of preparation though. "Get ready, Shiori!" she said with a big grin on her face. "Because here I go!"​

[Hiyasu Shiori]

Shiori had never been hit before.

The comparatively small girl hit hard. She packed a punch, or a kick, he supposed. The experience of being hit that first time was almost like an out-of-body experience. He didn't even particularly feel the next hammerblow of the kick, so shocked was he by the sensation of being struck.

One the final hit, he could feel himself moving in that special way that he had begun to understand, the will to move overcoming the limits of his body. His surprise at the act meant he got tapped again by a rather fearsome taijutsu, spinning around to strike him.

"You're pretty quick, Shiori. Normally, I would have landed all of those attacks. You're pretty good!"

Shiori smiled, feeling his ring grow warm as he began using it as the focus for his power. The air seemed to twist and writhe, before crackling energy wreathed his fist, bathing it in an unnatural light. He looked down at the nascent blade, enjoying it's presence. He had trained with this a lot more than the more esoteric natures of his ability.

Kaori had smirked at the display of putting on the ring. Maybe she had a plan? No matter. He knew he had to try hard now. He could never become immortal if he lost. He would not be a loser, forgotten, a footnote in another's history.

She had moved back, and offered a challenge, smile still plastered over her face.

"Well, it looks like no holds are barred. And you're no slouch yourself! You had best back up those words!" As Shiori's hand thrust forward, the blade began changing, becoming longer, more slender.

Kaori's leg felt an intense amount of pain. She groaned as she felt like her leg was sprained, causing her to hop on her other leg. "Hey! Take it easy! It's only a spar. I don't want to go see the doctors after this, geez!" she said in protest to Shiori going a little too rough. "Fine then," she said before doing something that Shiori wouldn't recognize. A big grin crossed her face as she noticed that what she did was a success. After performing her action, she took a step back, hobbling away from him to gain a little bit of room.

Fatigue started to settle in. Sweat was pouring from her forehead, dousing her shrine maiden outfit. She moved a hand up to her top and pulled it away from her body and used the top to fan herself off by moving it away and then near to her body. An actual battle is hard! What she needed practice on was learning how to control her chakra a bit more. She felt like she was using FAR too much chakra in a primarily taijutsu battle.

Kaori didn't have much of a choice. If she couldn't finish this battle this round, she is going to be in a very precarious situation in terms of chakra. She hatched up a plan, one that might actually serve her in the end. It'll use a little bit more chakra, but if it could cause the battle to end, that's all that mattered to her.​

"Take out the stem, and the plant falls."

Shiori's mother held the small flower up to her son, the low-hanging white bells dazzling in the early morning light. He smiled and nodded, but his mother was too perceptive. She sighed, turning back to the plants before her, all of the same dainty breed. Her hand whipped past one, snapping the stem. The flowers tumbled down, no longer held up by the green plant matter that supported them. This time he understood. Everything had a stem of it's own. If he could take it out, he would have an easier job beating his opponents.

This time the smile was genuine.

---​

As Kaori had moved forward, Shiori focussed his power. He stepped, but ended up behind Kaori. His blow hit her in the legs. He avoided apologising for the pain he caused. This was a fight after all.

Before he could celebrate his victory, his ring became warmer and warmer. He let out a hiss of pain, but no more. He could manage, his blade of unreality too crucial to his plan. He took solace in the fact the girl hobbled. Maybe he could win here. Though she was smaller, she seemed far more durable than him. She was tiring though, and Shiori was hurting. Still, he needed to press the advantage.

"You said you wanted a good fight, Kaori. I'm delivering on it." He smiled back at her. There was no malice in the expression. He was giving his best to ensure that both could say they truly tried to do their best in this fight.

He stood tall, body side on, 'blade' pointing towards the shrine maiden.

[Kanagawa Nozomi]

Exhaustion had settled in, causing Kaori's breathing to quicken in pace and become deeper as a result of fatigue. She looked towards her opponent for this sparring match, the boy becoming visible in multiple instances as if having double-vision. This wasn't the product of some genjutsu she was under, but as a byproduct of how worn out her body had become due to her excessive use of chakra.

Shiori was pretty good at dodging her attacks! If he wasn't so good at dodging (or if Kaori could actually land a hit) this fight would've been over a while back. She wiped the sweat from her brow and forced her hands back up into an offensive posture. Her arms were heavy, but she had enough energy to keep going if she concentrated on it. No need to get sloppy when you're tired.

"You're pretty good. But I'm going to have to end the fight right now or I'm going to be in a pickle," she said with a little bit of a chuckle. She shifts in her stance and prepares her attack. Hopefully, this would be the final engagement.​

[Hiyasu Shiori]

Pain. Shiori was in pain everywhere. Not localised damage like Kaori was feeling in her legs, but the general aches and pains of someone who had been beaten all over. He was breathing heavily, the smile still present on his face, unmoving. He had never fought before! How energising! He was here, on the edge of passing out, but he had never felt more alive, more complete. His view of Shinobi life changed, warping slightly, twisted by his experiences of fighting.

Kaori was talking again.

"You're pretty good. But I'm going to have to end the fight right now or I'm going to be in a pickle,"

She had something up her sleeve. He drew himself up as best he could, hand forward, crackling blade hissing and whistling as it flickered.

9. Your conditional did not go off. The reasoning for this is because you cannot state that it will go off if your opponent's attack hits as a conditional typically activates a few milliseconds before the attack. So in the case of your conditional, you should've stated: I will use X at the first attack at me or I will X if Kaori uses X Jutsu. If you need clarification, please DM me.
