Okay, first off... she had to watch where she was going... She couldn't step on a single pebble... and single twig... unless she wanted to give away her position... But shinobi like her big brother could do that and still not make any noise... how was that? Did they shift their weight or something? She had to find out some how... She had to master the secret of the silent walker... Holding out her arms for balance, she watched the ground she walked on and stepped carefully, but the groud still crunched benieth her feet... why was that?

Gritting her teeth she resisted the urge to curse to herself... Where was she going wrong... she was watching her step... what more could there be to being silent, honestly? If silence was indeed the shinobi's kei to invisibility, then she'd be as noticable as a three story barn, painted hot pink in the middle of a city... And she didn't like thinking of herself as a hot pink barn sticking out like a sore thumb and all that...

Rei heard her footsteps, trying to be as careful as possible... but it wasn't all about being careful... it was about being as light as a feather... But how could he help her get to that point? There were more steps to it, and it wasn't just her feet that was loud... "Kid... quit focusing on your feet for now... focus on relaxing..."

Ame lifted her head when she heard Rei's voice. Don't worry about my feet? Just relax? How is that supposed to help me with being quiet... isn't relaxing what you do when you want to be lazy? Shinobi are supposed to be alert and ready, not lazy... Yeah, so... Ame didn't get where Rei was going with this... all the exercise she did before probably tired her brain or something... but she decided to try it out anyways... After all, Rei knew best... he was the ANBU here... not her...

Taking in a deep breath, she began to relax her body... while at the same time, tried to figure out what it had to do with being silent. She felt her body calm down... her muscles went the slitest bit limp... and her breathing slowed... That was it... it was her breathing. When a shinobi was relaxed, their breathing was quieter... but what would happen when she started walking around again... Quiet breathing didn't stop loud feet, did it?

Ame closed her eyes to allow the relaxation of her body to commence... It was quite interesting now that she thought about it... She realized that when her beathing slowed, she was able to beath through her nose and still get enough air, rather than breathing through her mouth... On top of that, breathing through the nose was always quieter... unless you had a cold... So now that her breathing was aiding her in staying quiet... what was the next step?

Zanza was standing motionless for the longest time. He watched Ame train, and houka get lost in the thickness of the dust. He desided it was time for him to work his body a little more as well. He found a rather large rock stuck in the sand(I'm makeing this a desert now) and placed his bags on to corner of it. Then, he jumped on top of it and landed on his hands. countuieing his training from eairlyer in the day, he proceaded to do a push up, only useing his hands.

Ame's eyes opened slightly as she sensed someone nearby... Was it that stranger again? Wait.... no, it was Zanza. Had he been there the whole time? Maybe that was another benifit of relaxing Rei was trying to help her with... being relaxed didn't really mean inattentive... it just mean calm enough to realize your surroundings and where you stood in them... That was an interesting fact... she kinda felt stupid that she hadn't realized it before...

Now that she was figuring it all out, she was getting over excited. She might actually be able to master the art of silence in no time! But what was that noise? Ame could hear a huge thumping sound echoing around her... it was making it difficult to hear everything else in her surroundings. How could she make it stop..? It was if a curse was placed on her. As soon as she figured something out, another thing gets in the way and ruins it...

Wait a second... What did I just do before I heard the loud noise..? All I did was get excited... what does that have to do with it..? Ame decided to put two and two together and see if there were any connections. Excitement, and a loud thumping noise... What did the body do when you got excited? Ame knew there was as adrenalyn rush... and... he rpulse quckened... That's what it was... She didn't stay relaxed, but her breathing didn't end up the problem this time... it was her heartbeat. She could hear the pulse loudly in her ears, so that pervented her from hearing much else...

So now she was making a list in her head... Relaxing the body enabled her breathing and heartbeat to quiet down, allowing her to hear more of her surroundings and focus better... Now she was pretty sure there was more to it now... since she still hadn't connected the dots to how relaxing herself made her feet less noisy while walking... But she was pretty sure she'd get to that point... eventually...

Now was the time that she was gonna try walking around a bit... Keeping herslef relaxed, or as relaxed as she possibly could, she continued to watch her step... She felt a little bit quieter... but she could still hear the ground benieth her crunching... perhaps a bit better than before though since her body was relaxed, her hearing had a bit more intensity to it now... She had to figure out how to make the crunching stop though...

Ame sucked in a deep breath and tried walking normally, not staring at the ground this time. She could feel the shifting earth benieth her feet as she walked along... The noise was still annoying... the light crumble every so often... But it was getting a bit less... How was that working out... She still wasn't connecting the dots... Opening her eyes again, she looked around to see where she was... Alright... what else does relaxing the body do for me...?

Ame had gotten the breathing and heart beat down... but what else did relaxing the body do? Besides just... relax the body... Unless... that was the key to it... The body, meaning all of it's lims were relaxed... While stiff, the body was harder to move and when it did, it made noise...So when she relaxed, her legs, for instance... The noise she made was lessened. She took several steps to test out this theory... and it worked somewhat... the noise was dimmed, and that was definately considered an improvment since her hearing was better at the moment too...

Ame somewhat felt where she was supposed to be going with this... But the crunching was still going on... Her body was relaxed now... What more was there? Didn't she finally connect the dots between relaxing and moving silently? Or was there something else that Rei hadn't toldher yet? he did only give her one hint.... was that all he figured she needed to do this? She hoped so and not at the same time... wanting to figure it out, but knowing that she was going to need another hint.

She figured she should just walk around a bit more... see if something would hit her eventually... Just at that moment a kunai flew in her direction and landed at her feet. She could hear Rei's voice echoing over towards her through the dusty air... Sighing, she picked up the kunai and threw it right back at him, not aiming to hit him of course... He was giving her a mild example of what could happen if the enemy heard her...

Rei smiled when the kunai was thrown back. "You've almost got the hang of it... maybe halfway there... once you fully get your body settled, that's when you're supposed to watch where you're going... whithout staring at the ground..." Chuckling to himself, he sat back down on his rock... This would proove to be entertaining.
