Welcome to Gaia! ::

Vincent felt embarrassed and confused at the same time. Embarassed that his sensei was saying that Vincent was staring at Hiniko's butt which he was to a certain extent but he was curious as to what she was doing. He also felt the confusion from how his sensei had said that love is so carefree when you're young. He wondered what he meant by that but he brushed it aside since he needed to concentrate on the training.

"The stretches," he said, "Okay I'll get started."

He had to admit that he did see all of the moves and was taken so aback by how well Hiniko had done the moves. He imitated the first move by taking a good and deep breath and slowly bending downward stretching out his fingers to touch his toes. His hands made it to his ankles fairly easily but he had to push his torso a little further in order to reach his does. It had become uncomfortable but he was determined to reach that goal because he had to protect his team.

His fingers finally made contact with the tips of his shoes.

The next move that Vincent recalled Hiniko and sensei performing he knew of from physical training books: squats. He lowered his body in the same fashion until his legs were at right angles and then pushed himself back up.

"One" he counted and then back down and up again, "Two...three...four...five...six...seven...eight...nine...."

The last one felt a little tougher and the sweat was already starting to bead on his forehead and beneath his red cloak that was absorbing and radiating the heat of the mid-day sun.

"ten..." he huffed

Vincent had also remembered how Hiniko was doing a hamstring exercise. He knew this from the position that she took of one leg in front and bent and the other stretched out far behind her. She looked so beautiful there but he had to shake it off of his mind and concentrate on the next set. He saw how she first did squats then the stretches and then squats again.

He began doing his squats again. "One...." he counted, "two...three...four...five...six...seven...eight...nine...ten..."

"Squads backwards, sensei?" Vincent huffed his question out of his exhaustion.

Vincent tried to follow the instructions of his sensei and brought his knee up and swung it to the side. He followed by the other leg. Oddly enough he did feel that his body was moving backwards.

(I apologize SilenceMatters - going as quick as I can and as the sensei can)

(( I'm almost recovered!!! ))

Vincent gave it a try. He ran right at his sensei and made a leap into the air and began to spin. One...two...and on the third he made his leg straight and as rigid as a bar of steel. Amazingly he could feel it cutting through the air as if it were a dry reed whistling in the wind.
